Ruth 1
1 And it came to pass in the days when the judges judged, that there was a famine in the land: and there went a certain man of Beth-lechem-judah to sojourn in the fields of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
In pacl ma mwet nununku tuh kol fin acn Israel, oasr sie sracl lulap sikyak. Ouinge, sie mwet Bethlehem in acn Judah, wi mutan kial ac wen luo natul, elos som nu Moab in tuh muta we kitin pacl.
2 And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Na'omi, and the name of his two sons Machlon and Kilyon, Ephrathites of Beth-lechem-judah. And they came into the fields of Moab, and remained there.
Inen mukul sac pa Elimelech, mutan kial pa Naomi, ac inen wen luo natul ah pa Mahlon ac Chilion. Elos mwet Ephrath, ac elos muta in acn Bethlehem lun Judah. Na elos som nu Moab in tuh muta we. Ke elos muta we
3 Thereupon died Elimelech Na'omi's husband; and she was left, with her two sons.
Elimelech el misa, ac Naomi ac wen luo natul ah mukena muta.
4 And they took themselves wives of the women of Moab; the name of one was 'Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelt there about ten years.
Tok, eltal payukyak sin mutan Moab luo — sie pa Orpah ac sie pa Ruth. Elos muta we apkuran in yac singoul,
5 And then died also both of these, Machlon and Kilyon, and the woman was left [deprived] of her two children and her husband.
na Mahlon ac Chilion kewa misa pac, ac Naomi el mukelana muta. Wanginla mukul tumal ac wen luo natul ah.
6 Then did she arise with her daughters-in-law, and returned homeward from the fields of Moab; for she had heard in the fields of Moab that the Lord had thought of his people in giving them bread.
Kutu pacl tok, Naomi el lohngak lah LEUM GOD El kasru mwet in acn sel ke El akwoye fokin ima lalos ac sang mwe mongo nu selos. Na Naomi ac mutan luo talupal ah akola in som liki acn Moab,
7 Therefore she went forth out of the place where she had been, and her two daughters-in-law [were] with her; and they went on their way to return unto the land of Judah.
ac mutawauk in fahsr nu Judah.
8 Then said Na'omi unto her two daughters-in-law, Go, return each one to her mother's house: may the Lord deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
Naomi el fahk nu sin mutan luo natul ah, “Wona komtal in folokla nu yurin nina kiomtal ah, ac lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan kulang nu sumtal oana ke komtal tuh kulang nu sik ac nu sin mukul tomomtal ma misa.
9 May the Lord grant unto you that ye may find rest, each one in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them, and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
Lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan kasrekomtal in ku in konauk luo mukul ah tomomtal komtal in muta wo yoro.” Na Naomi el wilkas ac ngok mutaltal. Tusruktu eltal mutawauk in tung
10 And they said unto her, [No, ] for truly we will return with thee unto thy people.
ac fahk, “Mo! Kut ac wi kom na som nu yurin mwet lom an.”
11 Then said Na'omi, Return back, my daughters; why will ye go with me? are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may become your husbands?
Na Naomi el fahk nu seltal, “Komtal enenu in folokot. Efu komtal ku lungse wiyu? Mea, komtal nunku mu nga ac ku in sifil oswela tulik mukul komtal in payuk nu se?
12 Return back, my daughters, go; for I am too old to become [the wife] of any man; yea, if I were even to think, I have hope; should I even obtain this night a husband, and should also bear sons:
Folokot nu yen sumtal an mweyen nga matuoh ac nga tia ku in sifil payuk. Nga finne nunkauk mu nga in sifil payukyak ofong ac oswela kutu wen,
13 Would ye wait in hopes for them till they were grown? would ye debar yourselves for them so as not to become the wives of any man? not so, my daughters; for I feel much more bitter pain than you; because the hand of the Lord is gone out against me.
mea, komtal ac soano na eltal in matula? Ya sripa se inge in pwanang komtal in tia payuk nu sin kutepacna mukul? Mo, acn nutik, komtal etu na lah tia ku in ouinge. LEUM GOD El ngetla likiyu, ac nga arulana pakomutomtal.”
14 And they lifted up their voice and wept a long time; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law; but Ruth cleaved unto her.
Ac eltal sifilpa mutawauk in tung. Na Orpah el ngokya mutun nina sac, ac folokla nu yen sel ah, a Ruth el sripsriplana nu sin nina sac ac tiana fahsr lukel.
15 And she said, Behold, thy sister-in-law is returned back unto her people, and unto her gods; return thou after thy sister-in-law.
Na Naomi el fahk nu sel, “Ruth, mutan se wiom ah pa folokla nu yurin mwet lal ac god lal. Fahla welul.”
16 But Ruth said, Urge me not to leave thee, to return from following thee; for whither thou goest, will I go; and where thou lodgest, will I lodge; thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.
Tusruktu Ruth el fahk, “Nimet kom kafwe nga in som liki kom! Lela nga in wi kom na. Tuh yen kom som nu we, nga fah som pac nu we. Yen kom ac muta we, nga ac fah muta pac we. Mwet lom fah mwet luk, ac God lom fah God luk.
17 Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried; may the Lord do so to me, and may he so continue, if aught but death shall part me from thee.
Yen kom misa we, nga ac fah misa we, ac nga ac fah pukpuki pac we. Lela LEUM GOD Elan arulana ase mwe keok yohk nu fuk nga fin fahsr liki kom meet liki nga misa!”
18 When she thus saw that she was persisting to go with her, she left off speaking unto her.
Ke Naomi el akilen lah Ruth el wotela na ku sel mu el ac welul ah, el tia sifilpa fahk kutena ma.
19 So these two went until they came to Beth-lechem. And it came to pass, when they entered Beth-lechem, that all the city was in commotion about them, and people said, Is this Na'omi?
Eltal fahsr nwe ke na eltal sun acn Bethlehem. Ke eltal sun acn we, mwet in acn sac elos arulana lut, ac kutu sin mutan in acn sac fahk ouinge, “Ku pwayena lah Naomi pa inge?”
20 And she said unto them, Call me not Na'omi, call me Mara; for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
Na Naomi el fahk nu selos, “Kowos in tia sifil pangonyu Naomi, a kowos in pangonyu Marah mweyen LEUM GOD El ase sie moul na asor nu sik.
21 I went out full, but empty hath the Lord brought me home again; why then will ye call me Na'omi, seeing the Lord hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath sent me affliction?
Ke nga tuh som liki acn yenu ah, pukanten ma luk, tuh pa LEUM GOD El folokinyume pisinpo. Mwe mea kowos in pangonyu Naomi ke LEUM GOD Kulana El akkeokyeyu ac supwama mwe ongoiya nu fuk?”
22 So did Na'omi return, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who had returned out of the fields of Moab; and they came to Beth-lechem at the beginning of the barley-harvest.
Ouinge Naomi el foloko liki acn Moab, ac Ruth, mutan Moab se talupal welul. Ke eltal sun acn Bethlehem, tufahna mutawauk pacl in kosrani barley in acn we.
