Crëedigaeth, Rhag-luniaeth, a'r Ysgrythyr.)
Mae'r grëedigaeth bwysfawr,
Fel llyfr cynnwysfawr llawn,
Yn dangos profiad hynod
O Dduwdod mawr ei ddawn:
Pob rhan yn berffaith hawddgar,
Yn Naear ac yn Nef,
Ac oll yn cyd-bregethu,
Ei ddwyfol allu ef!
Rhyfeddol! byth rhyfeddol
Ei anorphenol ffyrdd,
Mae fe'n gofalu am filoedd,
A miloedd miloedd, myrdd:
Fe dreiddia o'r dyfnder isaf
I'r uchaf oror iach,
O fro y Seraph claerwyn
I gell Bywionyn bach!
Yn llyfr Rhagluniaeth helaeth
Mae darllen arfaeth Duw,
Cyfiawnder a thrugaredd,
Gwaith rhyfedd, gwerthfawr yw:
Doethineb yn lluniaethu,
A barnu trefn pob byd;
A gallu anghyfartal
I gynnal oll i gyd!
Un rhan o'r llyfr mewn golwg,
Sy'n amlwg i'm yn awr,
Rhan arall dywell etto,
Heb lwyr ddadguddio ei gwawr;
Dan Ragluniaethau tywyll,
Mae'n sefyll fawr leshad -
Cymmylau sy'n cysgodi
Goleuni Haul pob gwlad.
Ond yn y BIBL gwerthfawr,
Defnyddfawr air Duw Nâf,
Garch'mynion, addewidion,
Yn gyson lawn a gâf;
Athrawiaeth bur i'm dysgu
I gredu y'ngwaed y Groes,
A rheol i fucheddu,
Ac wedi i farnu f'oes.
Hwn ywr gwirionedd dwyfol,
Effeithiol air y ffydd,
Mae ganddo ar gydwybod
Awdurdod nos a dydd;
Yn hwn cyhoeddir melltith
Yn erbyn rhagrith noeth,
A rhad o'r bryniau oesol
I'r duwio, cywir, doeth.
Mae Duw yn anfon bywyd
Ei Ysbryd gyda ei air,
Gan ddangos ei ogoniant,
Er moliant
Duwfab Mair:
Fe rydd bob cyfarwddyd,
Drwy'r Byd a phorth y Bedd,
Sy'n arwain at drigfanau
Pob rhadau pur a hedd.
O fewn y gair myfyriaf,
Lle y profaf lawer pryd,
Er mwyn adnabod 'wyllys
Mawr-barchus Brynwr Byd;
Dan obaith cael adnabod,
Neu ganfod Duw'n fil gwell,
Y'nghartref Trag'wyddoldeb,
Ardaloedd purdeb pell!

Creation, Providence, and the Scripture.)
The important creation is,
Like a comprehensively full book,
Showing a remarkable proof
Of the Godhead with great talent:
Every part perfectly beautiful,
In Earth and in Heaven,
And all preaching together,
His divine power!
Wonderful! ever wonderful
His unending ways,
He is caring for thousands,
And thousands of thousands, a myriad:
It penetrates from the lowest depth
To the highest, healthy frontier,
From the vale of the clear-white Seraph
To the cell of the little gnat!
In the book of widespread Providence
There is the reading of the weapon of God,
Righteousness and mercy,
A wonderful work, valuable it is:
Wisdom in provision,
And judging the arrangement of every world;
And incomparable power
To sustain everything altogether!
One part of the book in view,
Is evident to me now,
Another part still dark,
Without completely revealing its dawn;
Under the dark Providences,
Is standing great benefit -
Clouds which are shadowing
The light of the Sun of every land.
But in the valuable BIBLE,
The greatly-useful word of the Lord God,
Commandments, promises,
Constantly full I shall have;
Pure instruction to teach me
To believe in the blood of the Cross,
And a rule to live by,
And after to judge my age.
This is the divine truth,
The effective word of faith,
It has over conscience
Authority night and day;
In this is published a curse
Against naked hypocrisy,
And grace, from the age-old hills
To the godly, true, wise.
God is sending the life
Of his Spirit with his word,
While showing his glory,
For the sake of the praise
of the Godson of Mary:
He gives every instruction,
Through the World and portal of the Grave,
Which is leading to dwellings
Of pure graces and peace.
Within the word I will meditate,
Where I prove many times,
In order to know the greatly reverenced
Will of the world's Redeemer;
Under the hope of getting to know,
Or find God a thousand times better,
In the Eternal Home,
The distant regions of purity!
tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion
