Yr Arglwydd Goruchaf yw Mugail, Ni phrofaf nag eisieu na gwall, Caf orwedd ar làn dyfroedd tawel, Mewn gwelltog borfäoedd di-wall; Fe ddychwel fy enaid crwydredig, Fe'm ceidw, fe'm cynnal a'i law, Fe'm harwain 'r'hyd llwybrau cyfiawnder, Ni bydd arnaf bryder na braw. Pe rhodiwn 'r'hyd glyn cysgod angeu, Nid ofnwn ddim niwed na nam, Fy Mugail gofalus a'm gwyliai, I'm tywys a'm harwain bob cam; Ei wialen a'i ffon a'm cysurant, Ni theimlwn un arswyd i'm bron, Pob bwystfil 'sglyfaethus a gilia Pan welant y wialen a'r ffon. Arlwya im' ford o ddanteithion Yn ngŵydd fy ngelynion dig iawn, Ag olew, fy mhen a eneinia, Fy phiol o hyd fydd yn llawn; Ei ras a'i ddaioni'm canlynant Bob amser caf lawnder di-lyth, A minnau'n ddiogel breswyliaf Yn nghafell ei babell Ef byth.William Rees (Gwilym Hiraethog) 1802-83 Tôn [9898D]: Bethel (alaw Gymreig) |
The Lord Most High is my Shepherd, I shall experience neither want nor failure, I may lie on the bank of quiet waters, In grassy unfailing pastures; He returns my wandering soul, He keeps me, he supports me with his hand, He leads me along paths of righteousness, I shall have neither anxiety nor terror. If I were to walk along the vale of the shadow of death, I would fear no harm nor hurt, My caring Shepherd would watch over me, To guide me and lead me every step; His rod and his staff shall comfort me, I would feel no horror at all, Every ravenous beast shall retreat When they see the rod and the staff. He provisions my table with delicacies In the presence of my very angry enemies, With oil, my head he anoints, My vessel shall always be full; His grace and his goodness shall follow me All the time I shall have unfailing fulness, And I shall reside safely In the cell of his tent forever.tr. 2020 Richard B Gillion |
1 The Lord himself, the mighty Lord, vouchsafes to be my guide; The shepherd, by whose constant care my wants are all supplied. 2 In tender grass he makes me feed, and gently there repose; Then leads me to cool shades, and where refreshing water flows. 3 He does my wand'ring soul reclaim, and, to his endless praise, Instruct with humble zeal to want in his most righteous ways. 4 I pass the gloomy vale of death, from fear and danger free; For there his aiding rod and staff defend and comfort me. 5 In presence of my spiteful foes he does my table spread, He crowns my cup with cheerful wine, with oil anoints my head. 6 Since God does thus his wondrous love through all my life extend, That life to him I will devote, and in his temple spend.N Tate & N Brady A New Version of the Psalms of David in Metre 1696 |
