Profedigaethau ffoisant ffwrdd

Temptations fled at his rebuke

(Salm xviii - Mawl am waredigaeth neillduol - Rhan II)
Profedigaethau ffoisant ffwrdd
  Pan y daeth cerydd Duw i'w cwrdd;
Anfonodd iachawdwriaeth lawr,
  A chododd fi o'r dyfnder mawr.

Gelynion aml mawr eu grym,
  A mawr eu llid oedd i mi'n llym;
Ond Crist sy'n dwyn y dydd heb goll
  Ar ddiafol a'i fyddinoedd oll.

Fy nghân a gaiff adgoffa o hyd
  Fy ngwaredigaeth ar y pryd;
A rhoi'r gogoniant, teilwng yw,
  I allu a thrugaredd Duw.
cyf. Dafydd Jones 1711-77

(Psalm 18 - Praise for particular deliverance - Part 2)
Trials had fled away
  When the rebuke of God came to meet them;
He sent salvation down,
  And raised me from the great depth.

Enemies with their manifold powers,
  And their wrath which was sharp to me;
But Crist is carrying the day without loss
  Over a devil and all his armies.

My song shall get to remind still
  Of my deliverance at the time;
And give the glory, worthy he is,
  To the power and mercy of God.
tr. 2018 Richard B Gillion
(Temptations overcome)
Temptations fled at his rebuke,
  The blast of his almighty breath;
He sent salvation from on high,
  And drew me from the deeps of death.

Great were my fears, my foes were great,
  Much was their strength, and more their rage;
But Christ, my Lord, is conqueror still,
  In all the wars that devils wage.

My song for ever shall record
  That terrible, that joyful hour;
And give the glory to the Lord,
  Due to his mercy and his power.
Isaac Watts 1674-1748

[Mesur: MH 8888]

Thee will I love O Lord my strength
