Hebreaid 12
Beibl William Morgan
12 Oblegid hynny ninnau hefyd, gan fod cymaint cwmwl o dystion wedi ei osod o’n hamgylch, gan roi heibio bob pwys, a’r pechod sydd barod i’n hamgylchu, trwy amynedd rhedwn yr yrfa a osodwyd o’n blaen ni; 2 Gan edrych ar Iesu, Pen‐tywysog a Pherffeithydd ein ffydd ni; yr hwn, yn lle’r llawenydd a osodwyd iddo, a ddioddefodd y groes, gan ddiystyru gwaradwydd, ac a eisteddodd ar ddeheulaw gorseddfainc Duw. 3 Ystyriwch am hynny yr hwn a ddioddefodd gyfryw ddywedyd yn ei erbyn gan bechaduriaid; fel na flinoch, ac nad ymollyngoch yn eich eneidiau. 4 Ni wrthwynebasoch eto hyd at waed, gan ymdrech yn erbyn pechod. 5 A chwi a ollyngasoch dros gof y cyngor, yr hwn sydd yn dywedyd wrthych megis wrth blant, Fy mab, na ddirmyga gerydd yr Arglwydd, ac nac ymollwng pan y’th argyhoedder ganddo: 6 Canys y neb y mae’r Arglwydd yn ei garu, y mae’n ei geryddu; ac yn fflangellu pob mab a dderbynio. 7 Os goddefwch gerydd, y mae Duw yn ymddwyn tuag atoch megis tuag at feibion: canys pa fab sydd, yr hwn nid yw ei dad yn ei geryddu? 8 Eithr os heb gerydd yr ydych, o’r hwn y mae pawb yn gyfrannog; yna bastardiaid ydych, ac nid meibion. 9 Heblaw hynny, ni a gawsom dadau ein cnawd i’n ceryddu, ac a’u parchasom hwy: onid mwy o lawer y byddwn ddarostyngedig i Dad yr ysbrydoedd, a byw? 10 Canys hwynt‐hwy yn wir dros ychydig ddyddiau a’n ceryddent fel y gwelent hwy yn dda; eithr hwn er llesâd i ni, fel y byddem gyfranogion o’i sancteiddrwydd ef. 11 Eto ni welir un cerydd dros yr amser presennol yn hyfryd, eithr yn anhyfryd: ond gwedi hynny y mae yn rhoi heddychol ffrwyth cyfiawnder i’r rhai sydd wedi eu cynefino ag ef. 12 Oherwydd paham cyfodwch i fyny’r dwylo a laesasant, a’r gliniau a ymollyngasant. 13 A gwnewch lwybrau union i’ch traed; fel na throer y cloff allan o’r ffordd, ond yr iachaer efe yn hytrach. 14 Dilynwch heddwch â phawb, a sancteiddrwydd, heb yr hwn ni chaiff neb weled yr Arglwydd: 15 Gan edrych yn ddyfal na bo neb yn pallu oddi wrth ras Duw; rhag bod un gwreiddyn chwerwedd yn tyfu i fyny, ac yn peri blinder, a thrwy hwnnw llygru llawer; 16 Na bo un puteiniwr, neu halogedig, megis Esau, yr hwn am un saig o fwyd a werthodd ei enedigaeth‐fraint. 17 Canys chwi a wyddoch ddarfod wedi hynny hefyd ei wrthod ef, pan oedd efe yn ewyllysio etifeddu’r fendith: oblegid ni chafodd efe le i edifeirwch, er iddo trwy ddagrau ei thaer geisio hi. 18 Canys ni ddaethoch chwi at y mynydd teimladwy sydd yn llosgi gan dân, a chwmwl, a thywyllwch, a thymestl, 19 A sain utgorn, a llef geiriau; yr hon pwy bynnag a’i clywsant, a ddeisyfasant na chwanegid yr ymadrodd wrthynt: 20 (Oblegid ni allent hwy oddef yr hyn a orchmynasid; Ac os bwystfil a gyffyrddai â’r mynydd, efe a labyddir, neu a wenir â phicell. 21 Ac mor ofnadwy oedd y golwg, ag y dywedodd Moses, Yr ydwyf yn ofni ac yn crynu.) 22 Eithr chwi a ddaethoch i fynydd Seion, ac i ddinas y Duw byw, y Jerwsalem nefol, ac at fyrddiwn o angylion, 23 I gymanfa a chynulleidfa’r rhai cyntaf‐anedig, y rhai a ysgrifennwyd yn y nefoedd, ac at Dduw, Barnwr pawb, ac at ysbrydoedd y cyfiawn y rhai a berffeithiwyd, 24 Ac at Iesu, Cyfryngwr y testament newydd, a gwaed y taenelliad, yr hwn sydd yn dywedyd pethau gwell na’r eiddo Abel. 25 Edrychwch na wrthodoch yr hwn sydd yn llefaru. Oblegid oni ddihangodd y rhai a wrthodasant yr hwn oedd yn llefaru ar y ddaear, mwy o lawer ni ddihangwn ni, y rhai ydym yn troi ymaith oddi wrth yr hwn sydd yn llefaru o’r nef: 26 Llef yr hwn y pryd hwnnw a ysgydwodd y ddaear: ac yn awr a addawodd, gan ddywedyd, Eto unwaith yr wyf yn cynhyrfu nid yn unig y ddaear, ond y nef hefyd. 27 A’r Eto unwaith hynny, sydd yn hysbysu symudiad y pethau a ysgydwir, megis pethau wedi eu gwneuthur, fel yr arhoso’r pethau nid ysgydwir. 28 Oherwydd paham, gan ein bod ni yn derbyn teyrnas ddi‐sigl, bydded gennym ras, trwy’r hwn y gwasanaethom Dduw wrth ei fodd, gyda gwylder a pharchedig ofn: 29 Oblegid ein Duw ni sydd dân ysol.
Hebrews 12
New King James Version
The Race of Faith
12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, (A)let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and (B)let us run (C)with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the [a]author and [b]finisher of our faith, (D)who for the joy that was set before Him (E)endured the cross, despising the shame, and (F)has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
The Discipline of God(G)
3 (H)For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, (I)lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls. 4 (J)You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin. 5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons:
(K)“My son, do not despise the [c]chastening of the Lord,
Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
6 For (L)whom the Lord loves He chastens,
And scourges every son whom He receives.”
7 (M)If[d] you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what (N)son is there whom a father does not chasten? 8 But if you are without chastening, (O)of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons. 9 Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to (P)the Father of spirits and live? 10 For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, (Q)that we may be partakers of His holiness. 11 Now no [e]chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields (R)the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
Renew Your Spiritual Vitality(S)
12 Therefore (T)strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, 13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
14 (U)Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, (V)without which no one will see the Lord: 15 looking carefully lest anyone (W)fall short of the grace of God; lest any (X)root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled; 16 lest there be any (Y)fornicator or [f]profane person like Esau, (Z)who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. 17 For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was (AA)rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.
The Glorious Company
18 For you have not come [g]to (AB)the mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and [h]darkness and tempest, 19 and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, so that those who heard it (AC)begged that the word should not be spoken to them anymore. 20 (For they could not endure what was commanded: (AD)“And if so much as a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned [i]or shot with an arrow.” 21 And so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, (AE)“I am exceedingly afraid and trembling.”)
22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the [j]general assembly and church of (AF)the firstborn (AG)who are registered in heaven, to God (AH)the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men (AI)made perfect, 24 to Jesus (AJ)the Mediator of the new covenant, and to (AK)the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things (AL)than that of Abel.
Hear the Heavenly Voice
25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For (AM)if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, 26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, (AN)“Yet once more I [k]shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” 27 Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the (AO)removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we [l]may (AP)serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. 29 For (AQ)our God is a consuming fire.

Hebrews 12
King James Version
12 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
