Bendigaid fyth fo'r Arglwydd mau,
Am ddoniau ei ddaioni:
A'i iachawdwriaeth i ni'n llwyth,
O ber-ffrwyth ei haelioni.
Efe'i hun yw'n Duw ni i gyd,
Sef Duw ein hiechyd helaeth:
Trwy'r Arglwydd Dduw cawn, yn ddiswrth,
Ddïanc oddiwrth farwolaeth.
Dygaf fy mhobloedd (meddai ef)
Hyd adref fel o Basan;
A dygaf hwynt
i'r holl ar g'oedd,
Fel o'r dyfnderoedd allan.
Clodforwch Dduw, hyny sydd dda,
Ym mhob cyn'lleidfa ddiwael:
A chlodforwch yr Arglwydd Ion,
Chwi sydd o ffynnon Israel.
Dy Dduw a drefnodd iti nerth,
A'i law
sydd brydferth geidwad
Duw, eto

Arnom ni waith dy gariad.
Er mwyn Caersalem,

A'r rhai

Y pendifigion o'r Aipht draw

At Dduw yn brysur, i roi rhodd,
Ac aberth gwirfodd, yna.
Holl deyrnasoedd y ddaear lawr,
I Dduw mawr cenwch foliant:
Cenwch, cenwch, ei glod yn rhwydd,
Sef Arglwydd y gogoniant.
Ofnadwy ydwyt ti a'th arch,
Teilwng o barch y bobloedd:
Duw Israel
rydd in' nerth wrth raid,
Bendigaid yn oes oesoedd.

Tonau [MS 8787]: |
Blessed forever be my Lord,
For the gifts of his goodness:
and his salvation to us as a load,
Of the sweet fruit of his generosity.
He himself is the God of us all,
That is the God of our abundant wholeness:
Through the Lord God we will get, quickly,
Escape from death.
I will lead my peoples (he said)
All the way home as from Bashan;
And I will lead them
to all that was declared,
As out from the depths.
Praise the Lord, that is good,
In every excellent congregation:
And extol the Sovereign Lord,
Ye who are of the fount of Israel.
Thy God has provided strength for thee,
And his hand
is a beautiful keeper
God, still
confirms widely
Upon us the work of thy love.
For the sake of Jerusalem,
a fair building,
The strong ones shall give
a gift to thee;
Thou wilt destroy
the company of the spear,
And those who insist
on going to war.
The nobles of distant Egypt
Will come, and Ethiopia,
To God urgently, to give a gift,
And voluntary offering, then.
All kingdoms of the earth below,
To great sing praise:
Sing, sing, his praise freely,
Who is the Lord of glory.
Terribly art thou and thy ark,
Worthy of the peoples' respect:
The God of Israel
who gives us strength in need,
Blessed forever and ever.

19 For benefits
each day bestowed,
be daily
his great Name, adored;
20 Who is our Saviour
and our God,
of life and death
the sovereign Lord.
22 The Lord hath thus in thunder spoke:
"As I subdued proud Bashan's king,
"Once more I'll break
my people's yoke,
and from the deep my servants bring.
26 This was the burden of their song,
"in full assemblies bless the Lord,
"All, who to Israel's tribes belong,
the God of Israel's praise record."
28 Thus God to strength and union brought
our tribes,
at strife till that blest hour;
This work, which thou,
O God, hast wrought,
Confirm with fresh recruits of power.
29 To visit Salem, Lord, descend,
and Zion thy terrestrial throne;
Where kings with presents shall attend,
and thee with offered crowns atone.
30 Break down the spearmen's ranks,
who threat
like pampered herds of savage might:
Their silver armoured chiefs defeat,
Who in destructive war delight.
3l Egypt shall then
to God stretch forth
her hands,
and Afric homage bring.
32 The scattered kingdoms
of the earth
their common Sov'reign's
praises sing.
35 How dreadful are the sacred courts,
where God has fixed his earthly throne!
His strength
his feeble saints supports;
to God give praise, and him alone.
