< Ruth 1 >

1 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 Beth-lehem-judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
И бысть внегда судяху судии, бысть глад на земли. И иде муж от Вифлеема Иудина обитати в селе Моавли, сам и жена его, и два сыны его:
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-judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.
имя же мужеви Елимелех, имя же жене его Ноемминь и имя двема сынома его Маалон и Хелеон, Ефрафейстии от Вифлеема Иудина. И приидоша в село Моавле, и беша тамо.
3 And Elimelech Naomi’s husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
И умре Елимелех муж Ноемминин, и остася она и оба сыны ея:
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 dwelled there about ten years.
и пояста себе жены Моавитския: имя единей Орфа и имя вторей Руфь: и жиша тамо до десяти лет.
5 And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.
И умроста оба сыны ея, Маалон и Хелеон, и остася жена от мужа своего и от обоих сынов ея.
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 the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread.
И воста она и обе снохи ея, и возвратишася с села Моавля: зане услыша на селе Моавли, яко присети Господь людий Своих дати им хлебы.
7 Wherefore 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.
И отиде от места, идеже бе, она и обе снохи ея с нею, и идяху в путь возвратитися в землю Иудину.
8 And Naomi said unto her two daughters in law, Go, return each to her mother’s house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
И рече Ноемминь обема снохама своима: идите убо, возвратитеся каяждо в дом отца своего: да сотворит Господь с вами милость, якоже сотвористе со умершими и со мною:
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.
да даст Господь Бог вам обрести покой коейждо в дому мужа своего. И целова я: они же воздвигоша гласы своя и плакашася,
10 And they said unto her, Surely we will return with thee unto thy people.
и рекоша ей: ни, но идем с тобою в люди твоя.
11 And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with me? [are] there yet [any more] sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
И рече Ноемминь: обратитеся убо, дщери мои, вскую идете со мною? Или еще мне сынове во утробе моей, и будут вам мужи?
12 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;
Возвратитеся убо, дщери мои и отидите, яко состарехся, и не буду мужу: аще же бых и рекла, яко у мене есть надежда, да буду мужу и рожду сыны,
13 Would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD is gone out against me.
вы ли пождете их, дондеже возрастут? И вы ли удержитеся, да не будете иному мужу? Ни, дщери мои, яко горько бысть мне паче вас, яко изыде на мя рука Господня.
14 And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth clave unto her.
И воздвигоша гласы своя, и плакаша паки. И целова Орфа свекровь свою, и возвратися в люди своя, Руфь же последова ей.
15 And she said, Behold, thy sister in law is gone back unto her people, and unto her gods: return thou after thy sister in law.
И рече Ноемминь к Руфе: се, возвратися ятровь твоя к людем своим и к богом своим, возвратися убо и ты вслед ятрове своея.
16 And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, [or] 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:
И рече Руфь: не срящи мене то, еже оставити тебе или обратитися мне от тебе, но идеже идеши ты, и аз пойду, и идеже водворишися ты, водворюся и аз: людие твои людие мои, и Бог твой Бог мой:
17 Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, [if ought] but death part thee and me.
и идеже аще умреши, умру и тамо погребуся: тако да сотворит мне Господь, и сия да приложит, яко смерть разлучит между мною и тобою.
18 When she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her, then she left speaking unto her.
Видевши же Ноемминь, яко укрепися она ити с нею, умолче глаголати к ней ктому.
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 moved about them, and they said, [Is] this Naomi?
Идосте же обе, дондеже приидосте в Вифлеем. И бысть егда приидосте они в Вифлеем, и возгласи весь град о них, и рекоша: еда сия есть Ноемминь?
20 And she said unto them, Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
И рече к ним: не зовите убо мене Ноемминь, но зовите мене Горька: яко исполни мя горести Вседержитель зело:
21 I went out full, and the LORD hath brought me home again empty: why [then] call ye me Naomi, seeing the LORD hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath afflicted me?
аз исполнь отидох, и ныне тщу мя возврати Господь: и вскую мя нарицаете Ноемминь, Господь смири мя и Вседержитель озлоби мя?
22 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 Beth-lehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
И возвратися Ноемминь и Руфь Моавитиня сноха ея с нею, обращающыяся с села Моавля: и приидосте в Вифлеем в начале жатвы ячменя.
