< Rut 1 >
1 Og det skete i de Dage, da Dommerne dømte, da var der en Hunger i Landet; og en Mand fra Bethlehem i Juda gik hen at opholde sig i Moabiternes Land, han og hans Hustru og hans to Sønner.
And it was in [the] days of [the] judging of the judges and it was a famine in the land and he went a man from Beth-lehem Judah to sojourn in [the] region of Moab he and wife his and [the] two sons his.
2 Og Mandens Navn var Elimelek og hans Hustrus Navn Noomi og hans to Sønners Navn Malon og Kiljon, Efratiter fra Bethlehem i Juda; og de kom i Moabiternes Land og bleve der.
And [the] name of the man [was] Elimelech and [the] name of wife his [was] Naomi and [the] name of [the] two sons his - [was] Mahlon and Kilion Ephrathites from Beth-lehem Judah and they came [the] region of Moab and they were there.
3 Og Elimelek, Noomi Mand, døde; og hun og hendes to Sønner bleve tilbage.
And he died Elimelech [the] husband of Naomi and she was left she and [the] two sons her.
4 Og disse toge sig moabitiske Hustruer, den enes Navn var Orpa, og den andens Navn Ruth; og de boede der ved ti Aar.
And they took for themselves wives Moabite [the] name of the one [was] Orpah and [the] name of the second [was] Ruth and they dwelt there about ten years.
5 Da døde ogsaa de begge, Malon og Kiljon; og Kvinden blev tilbage efter hendes tvende Sønner og efter hendes Mand.
And they died also both of them Mahlon and Kilion and she was left the woman from both children her and from husband her.
6 Da gjorde hun sig rede, hun og hendes Sønners Hustruer, og vendte tilbage fra Moabiternes Land; thi hun havde hørt i Moabiternes Land, at Herren havde besøgt sit Folk og givet dem Brød.
And she arose she and daughters-in-law her and she returned from [the] region of Moab if she had heard in [the] region of Moab that he had visited Yahweh people his by giving to them food.
7 Og hun gik ud fra det Sted, hvor hun havde været, og begge hendes Sønners Hustruer med hende, og de gik paa Vejen for at komme tilbage til Judas Land.
And she went out from the place where she had been there and [the] two daughters-in-law her [were] with her and they went on the way to return to [the] land of Judah.
8 Da sagde Noomi til begge sine Sønners Hustruer: Gaar hen, vender tilbage hver til sin Moders Hus; Herren gøre Miskundhed imod eder, ligesom I have gjort imod de døde og imod mig!
And she said Naomi to [the] two daughters-in-law her go return [each] woman to [the] house of mother her (may he deal *Q(K)*) Yahweh with you covenant loyalty just as you have dealt with the dead and with me.
9 Herren give eder, at I maa finde Rolighed hver i sin Mands Hus! Og hun kyssede dem, og de opløftede deres Røst og græd.
May he give Yahweh to you and find rest [each] woman [the] house of husband her and she kissed them and they raised voice their and they wept.
10 Og de sagde til hende: Vi ville vende tilbage med dig til dit Folk.
And they said to her that with you we will return to people your.
11 Da sagde Noomi: Vender tilbage, mine Døtre! hvorfor ville I gaa med mig? mon jeg har Børn ydermere i mit Liv, som kunne blive eders Mænd?
And she said Naomi go back O daughters my why? will you go with me ¿ still [belong] to me [do] sons in inward parts my and they will become of you husbands.
12 Vender tilbage, mine Døtre! gaar bort, thi jeg er for gammel til at faa en Mand; dersom jeg end sagde: Der er Forventelse for mig, ja, dersom jeg havde en Mand i denne Nat og endog fødte Sønner,
Go back O daughters my go for I am [too] old for belonging to a husband if I said there for me [is] hope also I belonged this night to a husband and also I bore sons.
13 mon I skulde vente paa dem, indtil de bleve store? mon I skulde opholdes derefter, saa at I ikke skulde faa Mænd? Nej, mine Døtre! thi det er mig saare bittert, mere end eder, at Herrens Haand er udgangen over mig.
¿ Therefore - will you wait until that they will grow up ¿ therefore will you shut yourselves off to not to belong to a husband may not [it be] O daughters my for it is bitter to me very more than you that it has gone forth on me [the] hand of Yahweh.
14 Da opløftede de deres Røst og græd ydermere; og Orpa kyssede sin Mands Moder, men Ruth hængte ved hende.
And they raised voice their and they wept again and she kissed Orpah mother-in-law her and Ruth she clung to her.
15 Da sagde hun: Se, din Svigerinde er vendt tilbage til sit Folk og til sin Gud; vend tilbage efter din Svigerinde!
And she said there! she has returned sister-in-law your to people her and to gods her go back after sister-in-law your.
16 Og Ruth sagde: Vær mig ikke imod, at jeg skulde forlade dig og vende tilbage, fra dig; thi hvor du gaar hen, der vil jeg gaa hen, og hvor du bliver om Natten, der vil jeg blive om Natten; dit Folk er mit Folk, og din Gud er min Gud.
And she said Ruth may not you entreat me to abandon you to turn back from after you for to where you will go I will go and at where you will lodge I will lodge people your [will be] people my and God your [will be] God my.
17 Hvor du vil dø, der vil jeg dø, og der vil jeg begraves; Herren gøre nu og fremdeles saa og saa imod mig, saa vist som Døden alene skal skille imellem dig og imellem mig.
At where you will die I will die and there I will be buried thus may he do Yahweh to me and thus may he add if death it will separate between me and between you.
18 Og der hun saa, at hun havde fast foresat sig at gaa med hende, da lod hun af at tale til hende derom.
And she saw that [was] determined she to go with her and she ceased to speak to her.
19 Og de gik begge, indtil de kom til Bethlehem; og det skete, der de kom til Bethlehem, da kom den ganske Stad i Bevægelse over dem, og de sagde: Er dette Noomi?
And they went [the] two of them until came they Beth-lehem and it was when came they Beth-lehem and it was excited all the city on them and they [fem] said ¿ [is] this Naomi.
20 Og hun sagde til dem: Kalder mig ikke Noomi, kalder mig Mara, thi den Almægtige har gjort det saare besk for mig.
And she said to them may not you call me Naomi call me Mara for he has caused bitterness [the] Almighty to me exceedingly.
21 Jeg gik bort med fulde Hænder, men Herren har ført mig med tomme Hænder tilbage; hvi skulde I kalde mig Noomi, efterdi Herren har vidnet imod mig, og den Almægtige handlet ilde med mig?
I full I went and empty he has brought back me Yahweh why? do you call me Naomi and Yahweh he has testified against me and [the] Almighty he has done harm to me.
22 Saa kom Noomi tilbage, og Ruth den moabitiske, hendes Sønnekone, var med hende, som kom tilbage af Moabiternes Land; og de kom til Bethlehem i Byghøstens Begyndelse.
And she returned Naomi and Ruth the Moabite [woman] daughter-in-law her [was] with her who returned from [the] region of Moab and they they came Beth-lehem at [the] beginning of [the] harvest of barley.
