Ruta 1
1 U ono vrijeme kada su vladali suci nastala glad u zemlji, pa iz Betlehema Judina jedan čovjek ode sa svojom ženom i sa svoja dva sina da se naseli na Moapskim poljanama.
In the daies of o iuge, whanne iugis weren souereynes, hungur was maad in the lond; and a man of Bethleem of Juda yede to be a pylgrym in the cuntrei of Moab, with his wijf and twey fre sones.
2 Taj se čovjek zvao Elimelek, žena mu Noemi, a dva njegova sina: Mahlon i Kiljon; svi bijahu Efraćani iz Betlehema Judina. Stigoše na Moapske poljane i tu se nastaniše.
He was clepid Elymelech, and his wijf Noemy, and the twey sones, `the oon was clepid Maalon, and the tother Chelion, Effrateis of Bethleem of Juda; and thei entriden in to the cuntrey of Moab, and dwelliden there.
3 Tada Elimelek, Noemin muž, umrije, i ona osta sama sa svoja dva sina.
And Elymelech, the hosebonde of Noemy, diede, and sche lefte with the sones;
4 Oni se oženiše Moapkama; jedna se zvala Orpa, a druga Ruta. I tu proboraviše deset godina.
and thei token wyues of Moab, of whiche wyues oon was clepid Orpha, the tother Ruth. And the sones dwelliden there ten yeer,
5 Onda umriješe i Mahlon i Kiljon, i tako Noemi osta i bez svoja dva sina i bez svoga muža.
and bothe dieden, that is, Maalon and Chelion; and the womman lefte, and was maad bare of twey fre sones, and hosebonde.
6 Tada se ona diže sa svojim snahama da ode s Moapskih poljana jer je čula na Moapskim poljanama da je Jahve pohodio narod svoj i dao mu kruha.
And sche roos to go with euer eithir wijf of hir sones in to hir cuntrey fro the cuntrey of Moab; for sche hadde herd, that the Lord hadde biholde his puple, and hadde youe `metis to hem.
7 Ode, dakle, ona iz mjesta gdje je živjela, a s njome i njezine snahe; krenuše na put da se vrate u zemlju Judinu.
Therfor sche yede out of the place of hir pilgrymage with euer either wijf of hir sones; and now sche was set in the weie of turnyng ayen in to the lond of Juda,
8 Noemi tada reče svojim dvjema snahama: “Vratite se svaka domu majke svoje! Neka vam Jahve bude milostiv kao što vi bijaste pokojnicima i meni.
and sche seide to hem, Go ye in to `the hows of youre modir; the Lord do mercy with you, as ye diden with the deed men, and with me;
9 Neka vam Jahve udijeli da obje nađete mir, svaka u domu svoga muža!” I poljubi ih, a one briznuše u plač.
the Lord yyue to you to fynde reste in the howsis of hosebondis, whiche ye schulen take. And sche kiste hem. Whiche bigunnen to wepe with `vois reisid,
10 I rekoše joj: “Ne! Mi ćemo s tobom, tvome narodu.”
and to seie, We schulen go with thee to thi puple.
11 Ali im reče Noemi: “Vratite se natrag, kćeri moje! Zašto biste išle sa mnom? Zar ću još imati sinova u utrobi svojoj da vam budu muževi?
To whiche sche answeride, My douytris, turne ye ayen, whi comen ye with me? Y haue no more sones in my wombe, that ye moun hope hosebondis of me; my douytris of Moab, turne ye ayen, and go;
12 Vratite se natrag, kćeri moje, idite samo! Odviše sam stara, nisam za udaju. Pa i kad bih rekla: 'Imam nade da se udam još noćas i da rodim sinove' -
for now Y am maad eeld, and Y am not able to boond of mariage; yhe, thouy Y myyte conseyue in this nyyt,
13 zar biste mogle čekati da odrastu i zar biste radi njih ostale neudate? Ne, kćeri moje, tuga bi moja bila veća od vaše, jer se ruka Jahvina digla na me.”
and bere sones, if ye wolen abide til thei wexen, and fillen the yeris of mariage, `ye schulen sunner be eld wymmen than ye schulen be weddid; I biseche, `nyle ye, my douytris, for youre angwische oppressith me more, and the hond of the Lord yede out ayens me.
14 One i opet zaplakaše i zajecaše. Orpa poljubi svoju svekrvu i vrati se, a Ruta ostade s njom.
Therfor, whanne the vois was reisid, eft thei bigunnen to wepe. Orpha kisside `the modir of hir hosebonde, and turnede ayen, and Ruth `cleuyde to `the modir of hir hosebonde.
15 Noemi joj reče: “Eto vidiš, jetrva se tvoja vratila narodu svome i bogu svome: vrati se i ti za jetrvom svojom!”
To whom Noemy seide, Lo! thi kyneswomman turnede ayen to hir puple, and to hir goddis; go thou with hir.
16 A Ruta joj odgovori: “Nemoj me tjerati da te ostavim i da odem od tebe: jer kamo ti ideš, idem i ja i gdje se ti nastaniš, nastanit ću se i ja; tvoj narod moj je narod i tvoj Bog moj je Bog.
And sche answeride, Be thou not `aduersarye to me, that Y forsake thee, and go awei; whidur euer thou schalt go, Y schal go, and where thou schalt dwelle, and Y schal dwelle togidere; thi puple is my puple, and thi God is my God;
17 Gdje ti umreš, umrijet ću i ja, gdje tebe pokopaju, pokopat će i mene. Neka mi Jahve uzvrati svakim zlom i nevoljom ako me što drugo, osim smrti, rastavi od tebe.”
what lond schal resseyue thee diynge, Y schal die ther ynne, and there Y schal take place of biriyng; God do to me these thingis, and adde these thingis, if deeth aloone schal not departe me and thee.
18 Videći gdje je tvrdo naumila da ide s njom, prestade je odvraćati.
Therfor Noemy siy, that Ruth hadde demyde with stidefast soule to go with hir, and sche nolde be ayens hir, nether counseile ferthere turnynge ayen `to her cuntrei men.
19 Tako su zajedno išle dok ne dođoše u Betlehem. A kad dođoše u Betlehem, sav se grad uzbudi zbog njih. “Ma je li ovo Noemi?” - pitahu žene.
And thei yeden forth togidere, and camen in to Bethleem; and whanne thei entriden in to the citee, swift fame roos anentis alle men, and wymmen seiden, This is thilke Noemy.
20 A ona im odgovaraše: “Ne zovite me više Noemi nego me zovite Mara; jer me Šadaj gorčinom ispunio!
To whiche sche seide, Clepe ye not me Noemy, that is, fair, but `clepe ye me Mara, that is, bittere; for Almyyti God hath fillid me greetli with bitternesse.
21 Odavde sam otišla punih ruku, a sad me Jahve vraća bez igdje ičega. Zašto me zovete Noemi kad Jahve posvjedoči protiv mene i Svemogući me u tugu zavi?”
Y yede out ful, and the Lord ledde me ayen voide; whi therfor clepen ye me Noemy, whom the Lord hath `maad low, and Almyyti God hath turmentid?
22 Tako se vrati Noemi s Rutom Moapkom, snahom svojom, s Moapskih poljana. Stigle su u Betlehem baš kad je počela žetva ječma.
Therfor Noemy cam with Ruth of Moab, `the wijf of hir sone, fro the lond of hir pilgrimage, and turnede ayen in to Bethleem, whanne barli was ropun first.
