Ruth 1
1 And it came to pass in the days when the judges judged, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem-judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
A u ono vrijeme kad suðahu sudije bi glad u zemlji; i jedan èovjek iz Vitlejema Judina otide da živi kao došljak u zemlji Moavskoj sa ženom svojom i sa dva sina svoja.
2 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 Bethlehem-judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.
A ime tomu èovjeku bješe Elimeleh, a ženi mu ime Nojemina, a imena dvojice sinova njegovijeh Malon i Heleon; i bijahu Efraæani, iz Vitlejema Judina; i doðoše u zemlju Moavsku i nastaniše se ondje.
3 And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died, and she was left, and her two sons.
Potom umrije Elimeleh muž Nojeminin i ona osta sa dva sina svoja.
4 And they took wives for them of the women of Moab. The name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth, and they dwelt there about ten years.
Oni se oženiše Moavkama: jednoj bješe ime Orfa a drugoj Ruta; i ondje stajahu do deset godina.
5 And Mahlon and Chilion died, both of them, and the woman was left of her two children and of her husband.
Potom umriješe obojica, Malon i Heleon; i žena osta bez dva sina svoja i bez muža svojega.
6 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 Jehovah had visited his people in giving them bread.
Tada se ona podiže sa snahama svojima da se vrati iz zemlje Moavske, jer èu u zemlji Moavskoj da je Gospod pohodio narod svoj davši im hljeba.
7 And 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.
I izide iz mjesta gdje bijaše, i obje snahe njezine s njom; poðoše putem da se vrate u zemlju Judinu.
8 And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, Go, return each of you to her mother's house. Jehovah deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
Tada reèe Nojemina objema snahama svojima: idite, vratite se svaka u dom matere svoje; Gospod neka vam uèini milost kao što vi uèiniste umrlima i meni.
9 Jehovah grant you that ye may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them, and they lifted up their voices, and wept.
Da vam da Gospod da naðete poèinak svaka u domu muža svojega. I poljubi ih; a one povikavši zaplakaše,
10 And they said to her, No, but we will return with thee to thy people.
I rekoše joj: ne, nego æemo se s tobom vratiti u tvoj narod.
11 And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters. Why will ye go with me? Have I yet sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
A Nojemina im reèe: idite natrag, kæeri moje; što biste išle sa mnom? zar æu još imati sinova u utrobi svojoj da vam budu muževi?
12 Turn again, my daughters. Go your way, for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope. If I should even have a husband tonight, and should also bear sons,
Vratite se, kæeri moje, idite; jer sam ostarjela i nijesam za udaju. A i da kažem da se nadam i da se još noæas udam, i da rodim sinove,
13 would ye therefore delay till they were grown? Would ye therefore stay from having husbands? No, my daughters, for it grieves me much for your sakes, for the hand of Jehovah has gone forth against me.
Zar æete ih vi èekati dok odrastu? zar æete toga radi stajati neudate? Nemojte, kæeri moje; jer su moji jadi veæi od vaših, jer se ruka Gospodnja podigla na me.
14 And they lifted up their voices, and wept again. And Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth clung to her.
Tada one podigavši glas svoj plakaše opet; i Orfa poljubi svekrvu svoju; a Ruta osta kod nje.
15 And she said, Behold, thy sister-in-law has gone back to her people, and to her god. Return thou after thy sister-in-law.
A ona joj reèe: eto, jetrva se tvoja vratila narodu svojemu i k bogovima svojim; vrati se i ti za jetrvom svojom.
16 And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave thee, and to return from following after thee, for where thou go, I will go, and where thou lodge, I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.
Ali Ruta reèe: nemoj me nagovarati da te ostavim i od tebe otidem; jer kuda god ti ideš, idem i ja; i gdje se god ti nastaniš, nastaniæu se i ja; tvoj je narod moj narod, i tvoj je Bog moj Bog.
17 Where thou die, I will die, and there I will be buried. Jehovah do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts thee and me.
Gdje ti umriješ, umrijeæu i ja, i ondje æu biti pogrebena. To neka mi uèini Gospod i to neka mi doda, smrt æe me samo rastaviti s tobom.
18 And when she saw that she was steadfastly minded to go with her, she left off speaking to her.
A ona kad vidje da je tvrdo naumila iæi s njom, presta je odvraæati.
19 So those two went until they came to Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they came to Bethlehem, that all the city was moved about them, and the women said, Is this Naomi?
Tako idoše obje dok ne doðoše u Vitlejem; a kad doðoše u Vitlejem, sav grad uzavre njih radi, i govorahu: je li to Nojemina?
20 And she said to them, Call me not Naomi. Call me Mara, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.
A ona im govoraše: ne zovite me više Nojemina, nego me zovite Mara, jer mi velike jade zadade svemoguæi.
21 I went out full, and Jehovah has brought me home again empty. Why do ye call me Naomi, seeing Jehovah has testified against me, and the Almighty has afflicted me?
Obilna sam otišla, a praznu me vrati Gospod. Zašto me zovete Nojemina, kad me Gospod obori i svemoguæi me ucvijeli.
22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the country of Moab. And they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
Tako doðe natrag Nojemina i s njom Ruta Moavka, snaha njezina, vrativši se iz zemlje Moavske; a doðoše u Vitlejem o poèetku jeèmene žetve.
