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.
E ndalo mane jongʼad bura ni e loch, kech ne nitie e piny, kendo ngʼat moro moa Bethlehem e piny Juda, kaachiel gi chiege kod yawuote ariyo, nodhi mondo odag e piny Moab kuom kinde moko.
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.
Nying ngʼatno ne Elimelek, to nying chiege ne Naomi, kendo nying yawuote ariyogo ne gin Malon gi Kilion. Ne gin jo-Efrath moa Bethlehem e piny Juda. Kendo negidhi e piny Moab mi gidak kuno.
3 And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
To koro Elimelek ma chwor Naomi notho, mi nodongʼ gi yawuote ariyo.
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.
Negikendo nyi Moab, ma achiel ne nyinge Orpa, to machielo Ruth. Kane gisedak kuno kuom kinde madirom higni apar,
5 And Mahlon and Chilion died both of them; and the woman was left of her two children and of her husband.
Malon gi Kilion bende notho, kendo Naomi koro nodongʼ kende maonge yawuote ariyo kaachiel gi chwore.
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.
Kane owinjo wach gie piny Moab ni Jehova Nyasaye osekecho joge komiyogi chiemo, Naomi kod mond yawuote ne joikore mar dok thurgi ka gia kanyo.
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.
Ne giwuok kanyo, en kaachiel gi mond yawuote ariyo, kendo negimako wuoth ka giluwo yo mane dwokogi nyaka e piny Juda.
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.
Eka Naomi nowachone mond yawuote ariyo niya, “Doguru, ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu, nyaka ute mineu. Mad Jehova Nyasaye timnu ngʼwono, mana kaka usetimo ne chwou mosetho kendo ne an bende.
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.
Mad Jehova Nyasaye tim ni ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu ngʼwono mondo ubed gi kwe kod mor e kend ma ubiro donjoe.” Eka nogonegi oriti, kendo ne giywak malit,
10 And they said unto her: 'Nay, but we will return with thee unto thy people.'
kagiwacho niya, “Wabiro dok kodi thuru ir jou.”
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?
To Naomi nowacho niya, “Nyiga, doguru thucheu. Angʼo momiyo udwaro dhi koda? Bende pod anyalo nywolo yawuowi ma dikendu?
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;
Doguru thucheu, nyiga; aseti ma ok anyal bedo gi dichwo machielo. To kata dine bed ni pod aparo ni an gi geno, kata dine bed ni abedo gi dichwo otienoni mi anywolo yawuowi
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.'
bende duritgi nyaka gibed jomadongo? Bende dusiki ma ok okendu kapod uritogi? Ooyo, nyiga. An ema an-gi lit moloyou, nikech Jehova Nyasaye osekuma!”
14 And they lifted up their voice, and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law; but Ruth cleaved unto her.
Kane giwinjo ma, ne giywak kendo. Eka Orpa nogone wuon odgi oriti, to Ruth to notwere kode.
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 nowachone Ruth niya, “Ne, nyieki osewuok dok ir jogi kendo ir nyisechegi. In bende dog kode.”
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 nodwoke niya “We chuna mondo aweyi kata apogra kodi. Kuma idhiyo ema an bende abiro dhiye, kendo kama idakie ema abiro dakie. Jogi ema nobed joga kendo Nyasachi ema nobed Nyasacha.
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.'
Kama inithoe ema anathoe kendo kuno ema noyikae. Mad Jehova Nyasaye timna marach, kendo otimna marach ahinya, kapo ni gimoro amora opoga kodi ma ok mana tho kende!”
18 And when she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her, she left off speaking unto her.
Kane Naomi oneno kaka Ruth noketo chunye mar dhi kode, noweyo chune.
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?'
Omiyo Naomi gi chi wuode nomedo dhiyo nyaka negichopo Bethlehem. Kane gichopo Bethlehem, dala duto nobwok kane onene, kendo mon nopenjore kendgi niya, “Ma bende dibed Naomi adier?”
20 And she said unto them: 'Call me not Naomi, call me Marah; for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
To Naomi nokonegi niya, “Kik uluonga ni Naomi, to luongauru ni Mara (tiende ni Makech), nikech Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osemiyo ngimana obedo makech miwuoro.
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?'
Ne adhi ka an-gi gik moko duto, to Jehova Nyasaye oseduoga ka an-gi lweta nono. Uluonga ni Naomi nangʼo? Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osechwada kendo osekuma malit.”
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.
Kamano e kaka Naomi noduogo koa Moab, ka Ruth nyar Moab, ma chi wuode, ni kode. Negichopo Bethlehem ka kinde mikaye shairi chakore.
