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 Beth-lehem in Judah went to sojourn in the field of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
Lawkcengkung ni a uknae tueng nah Isarel ram takang a tho teh, Judah ram Bethlehem tami buet touh teh a yucanaw hoi Moab kho kampuen hanlah a cei awh.
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 Beth-lehem in Judah. And they came into the field of Moab, and continued there.
Ahnie min teh Elimelek. A yu min teh Naomi, a ca roi e a min teh Mahlon hoi Khilion. Ahnimouh teh Judah ram, Bethlehem kho, Ephraim tami lah ao. Moab ram lah a cei teh hawvah ao awh.
3 And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
Naomi teh a vâ, Elimelek a due hnukkhu a capa roi hoi cungtalah kho a sak awh.
4 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 dwelt there about ten years.
A ca roi ni Moab napui, Orpah hoi Ruth hah a yu lah a la roi.
5 And Mahlon and Chilion died both of them; and the woman was left of her two children and of her husband.
Hote ram dawk kum hra touh hane ao awh hnukkhu, hote a capa roi Mahlon hoi Khilion hai a due roi dawkvah Naomi teh a vâ hoi a ca laipalah ao.
6 Then she arose with her daughters-in-law, that she might return from the field of Moab; for she had heard in the field of Moab how that the LORD had remembered His people in giving them bread.
Cathut ni a taminaw a khet teh khobu a tho sak tie Moab ram hoi a thai navah, Moab ram hoi ban hanlah a langa roi hoi a kamthaw awh teh,
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 unto the land of Judah.
Judah ram lah a cei awh.
8 And Naomi said unto her two daughters-in-law: 'Go, return each of you to her mother's house; the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
Hatei, Naomi ni a langa roi hanlah na manu im lah ban roi leih, kadout tangcoung naw hoi kai koe na saknae phu teh Cathut ni yawhawi na poe roi lawiseh.
9 The LORD 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 voice, and wept.
Nangmouh roi ni na vâ alouke na sak roi hnukkhu kanawmcalah na o roi nahan yawhawinae na poe lawiseh ati teh, a kut a man roi. Ahnimouh roi hai a khuika roi.
10 And they said unto her: 'Nay, but we will return with thee unto thy people.'
Bangtelah hai thoseh nama hoi cungtalah, na miphunnaw koe kâbang han atipouh roi.
11 And Naomi said: 'Turn back, my daughters; why will ye go with me? have I yet sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
Naomi nihai, ka canu roi, ban roi leih. Bangkongmaw kai koe na kâbang roi han. kai teh nangmouh roi hanlah ka vonthung ca tongpa ka tawn rah maw.
12 Turn back, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say: I have hope, should I even have an husband to-night, and also bear sons;
Ka canu roi, ban roi leih. kai teh nangmouh roi na ngaihawi nahanelah ka kumcue toung dawkvah vâ hai ka tawn thai mahoeh toe. Hatei, vâ ka tawn nakunghai thoseh, sahnin tangmin vah ca tongpanaw ka khe ei nakunghai thoseh,
13 would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye shut yourselves off for them and have no husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes, for the hand of the LORD is gone forth against me.'
Ahnimouh a nawsai ditouh na ring thai han na maw. Vâ laipalah ahnimanaw ngaihawi rah vaw, ka canu roi hottelah nahoeh. Cathut e kut teh kai koe ao hoeh toung dawkvah nangmouh roi hanlah lungpatawnae ka tawn atipouh navah
14 And they lifted up their voice, and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law; but Ruth cleaved unto her.
Ahnimanaw teh puenghoi bout a ka awh. Hahoi, Orpah ni a mani hah a paco teh a imthungnaw koe a ban takhai. Hatei, Ruth teh a mani hoi cungtalah o hane a kârawi.
15 And she said: 'Behold, thy sister-in-law is gone back unto her people, and unto her god; return thou after thy sister-in-law.'
Naomi ni na hmau teh na miphun cathut koe a ban toe. Na hmau e hnuk vah kâbang van leih atipouh navah,
16 And Ruth said: 'Entreat me not to leave thee, and to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge; thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God;
Ruth ni nang hoi na kampek sak hanh. Nang koe ka cei hoeh nahanlah sak hanh. Na ceinae pueng koe ka cei han. Na inae koe ka i han. Na miphun teh ka miphun lah ao han. Na Cathut teh ka Cathut lah ao han.
17 where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried; the LORD do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.'
Na duenae koe ka due vaiteh kâpakawp han. Duenae laipalah bang ni hai kapek pawiteh Cathut ni kai koe het hlak hai hno sak naseh, telah atipouh.
18 And when she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her, she left off speaking unto her.
Ruth ni lungtang lahoi a hnukkâbang han ati e Naomi ni a hmu navah lawkkamuem lah a o
19 So they two went until they came to Beth-lehem. And it came to pass, when they were come to Beth-lehem, that all the city was astir concerning them, and the women said: 'Is this Naomi?'
Ahnimouh roi teh a kamthaw roi teh Bethlehem a pha roi navah, taminaw ni ruengrueng ati awh teh, hetheh, Naomi namaw telah a pacei awh.
20 And she said unto them: 'Call me not Naomi, call me Marah; for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
Naomi ni kai heh Naomi telah na kaw awh hanh lawih. Marah telah na kaw awh lawih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a Thakasaipounge ni kakhat e hno na poe.
21 I went out full, and the LORD hath brought me back home empty; why call ye me Naomi, seeing the LORD hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath afflicted me?'
Kai teh bawirengnae hoi ka tâco. Hatei, roedeng teh takcaici hoi Cathut ni bout na bankhai. A Thakasaipounge ni kai na pabo teh na roedeng sak dawkvah bangkongmaw Naomi telah na kaw awh, atipouh.
22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the field of Moab — and they came to Beth-lehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
Hottelah, Moab kho hoi ka kâbang e Moab napui, a langa hoi Bethlehem kho vah canga tue nah a pha roi.
