Rút 1
1 Stalo se pak za času soudců, že byl hlad v zemi. I odšel člověk z Betléma Judova, a bydlil pohostinu v krajině Moábské s manželkou svou a se dvěma syny svými.
Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehemjudah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
2 Jméno pak muže toho Elimelech, a jméno ženy jeho Noémi, jméno také dvou synů jeho Mahalon a Chelion, Efratejští z Betléma Judova; a přišedše do krajiny Moábské, bydlili tam.
And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehemjudah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.
3 Umřel pak Elimelech, muž Noémi; i pozůstala ona s oběma syny svými.
And Elimelech Naomi’s husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
4 Kteříž pojali sobě ženy Moábské; jméno jedné bylo Orfa a jméno druhé Rut. I bydlili tam téměř deset let.
And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years.
5 Umřeli také oni oba dva, Mahalon i Chelion, a zůstala žena ta po dvou synech svých a manželu svém.
And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.
6 Tedy vstavši ona s nevěstami svými, navracela se z krajiny Moábské; nebo slyšela v krajině Moábské, že Hospodin navštívil lid svůj, dav jemu chléb.
Then she arose with her daughters in law, that she might return from the country of Moab: for she had heard in the country of Moab how that the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread.
7 Vyšedši tedy z místa, na němž bydlila, a obě nevěsty její s ní, daly se na cestu, aby se navrátily do země Judské.
Why she went forth out of the place where she was, and her two daughters in law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.
8 Řekla pak Noémi oběma nevěstám svým: Jděte, navraťte se jedna každá do domu matky své. Učiniž Hospodin s vámi milosrdenství, jakož jste i vy činili s mrtvými syny mými i se mnou.
And Naomi said to her two daughters in law, Go, return each to her mother’s house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as you have dealt with the dead, and with me.
9 Dejž vám Hospodin, abyste nalezly odpočinutí, jedna každá v domě muže svého. I políbila jich, ony pak pozdvihše hlasu svého, plakaly.
The LORD grant you that you may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
10 A řekly jí: Obrátíme se raději s tebou k lidu tvému.
And they said to her, Surely we will return with you to your people.
11 I řekla Noémi: Navraťte se, dcerky mé. Proč chcete jíti se mnou? Zdaliž ještě budu míti syny, aby byli vaši muži?
And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will you go with me? are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
12 Navraťte se, dcerky mé, a odejděte, neboť jsem již stará k vdání; nýbrž bych i řekla, že mám naději, bych i noci této se vdala a syny zrodila,
Turn again, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have an husband. If I should say, I have hope, if I should have an husband also to night, and should also bear sons;
13 Zdaž byste na ně čekaly, až by dorostli? Zdaliž tou příčinou meškati se budete, abyste se neměly vdáti? Ne tak, mé dcerky, nebo mé trápení větší jest nežli vaše, proto že ruka Hospodinova jest proti mně.
Would you tarry for them till they were grown? would you stay for them from having husbands? no, my daughters; for it grieves me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD is gone out against me.
14 Ony pak pozdvihše hlasu, opět plakaly. A Orfa políbivši svegruši svou, odešla, Rut pak přídržela se jí.
And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth joined to her.
15 Kteréžto řekla Noémi: Aj, přítelkyně tvá navrátila se k lidu svému a k bohům svým, navratiž se také za ní.
And she said, Behold, your sister in law is gone back to her people, and to her gods: return you after your sister in law.
16 Ale Rut řekla: Nenuť mne, abych tě opustiti a od tebe odjíti měla. Nebo kamž se koli obrátíš, půjdu, a kdekoli bydliti budeš, i já bydliti budu; lid tvůj lid můj, a Bůh tvůj Bůh můj.
And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave you, or to return from following after you: for where you go, I will go; and where you lodge, I will lodge: your people shall be my people, and your God my God:
17 Kdekoli umřeš, umru, a tu pochována budu. Toto mi učiň Hospodin, a toto přidej, že toliko smrt rozdělí mne s tebou.
Where you die, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if anything but death part you and me.
18 Tedy viduci, že se na tom ustavila, aby šla s ní, přestala k ní mluviti.
When she saw that she was steadfastly minded to go with her, then she left speaking to her.
19 I šly obě dvě spolu, až přišly k Betlému. I stalo se, že když přišly do Betléma, roznesla se pověst o nich po všem městě, a pravili: To-li jest ta Noémi?
So they two went until they came to Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they were come to Bethlehem, that all the city was moved about them, and they said, Is this Naomi?
20 Jimž ona řekla: Nenazývejte mne Noémi, říkejte mi Mara; nebo hořkostí velikou naplnil mne Všemohoucí.
And she said to them, Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.
21 Vyšla jsem plná, teď pak prázdnou mne zase Hospodin přivedl. Pročež tedy nazýváte mne Noémi, poněvadž mne Hospodin ssoužil, a Všemohoucí mne znuzil?
I went out full and the LORD has brought me home again empty: why then call you me Naomi, seeing the LORD has testified against me, and the Almighty has afflicted me?
22 A navrátila se Noémi s Rut Moábskou, nevěstou svou; navrátila se pak z krajiny Moábské. I přišly do Betléma, když počínali žíti ječmene.
So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter in law, with her, which returned out of the country of Moab: and they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
