Ruth 1
1 And it comes to pass, in [the] days [when] the ones judging judge, that there is a famine in the land, and there goes a man from Beth-Lehem-Judah to sojourn in the fields of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
Nʼoge ndị ahụ, mgbe ndị ikpe na-achị, oke ụnwụ dara nʼala Izrel. Nʼihi ụnwụ a, otu nwoke, onye Betlehem, obodo dị na Juda, kwakọọrọ ihe ya niile, duru nwunye ya, na ụmụ ya ndị ikom abụọ, hapụ obodo ya gaa biri dịka ọbịa nʼala Moab.
2 And the name of the man [is] Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephraimites from Beth-Lehem-Judah; and they come into the fields of Moab, and are there.
Aha nwoke a bụ Elimelek. Aha nwunye ya bụ Naomi, ma aha ụmụ ya ndị ikom abụọ bụ Mahlọn na Kilịọn. Ha bụ ndị Efrat si Betlehem nke dị na Juda. Ha bịarutere nʼala Moab biri nʼebe ahụ.
3 And Elimelech husband of Naomi dies, and she is left, she and her two sons;
Ma Elimelek di Naomi nwụrụ, hapụ naanị Naomi, na ụmụ ya ndị ikom abụọ.
4 and they take to them wives, Moabitesses: the name of the first [is] Orpah, and the name of the second Ruth; and they dwell there about ten years.
Ha lụrụ ndị nwunye site nʼetiti ndị inyom Moab. Aha nke mbụ bụ Ọpa, ebe aha nke abụọ bụ Rut. Ha biri nʼebe ahụ ihe dị ka afọ iri.
5 And they die also, both of them—Mahlon and Chilion—and the woman is left of her two children and of her husband.
Mahlọn na Kilịọn mechara nwụọ. Ya mere, Naomi ghọrọ onye gba aka di, na onye gba aka ụmụ.
6 And she rises, she and her daughters-in-law, and turns back from the fields of Moab, for she has heard in the fields of Moab that God has looked after His people—to give to them bread.
Mgbe Naomi nọ nʼala Moab nụ na Onyenwe anyị eletala ndị Izrel site nʼinye ha ihe oriri, Naomi na ndị nwunye ụmụ ya abụọ kwadoro ịlaghachi azụ nʼala Izrel.
7 And she goes out from the place where she has been, and her two daughters-in-law with her, and they go in the way to return to the land of Judah.
Ya mere, Naomi na ndị nwunye ụmụ ya abụọ hapụrụ ala Moab ebe ha bi kemgbe, malite ịgbaso ụzọ ha ga-esi laghachi nʼala Juda.
8 And Naomi says to her two daughters-in-law, “Go, return, each to the house of her mother; YHWH does with you kindness as you have done with the dead, and with me;
Mgbe ahụ, Naomi gwara ndị nwunye ụmụ ya abụọ okwu sị ha, “Ngwa, onye ọbụla nʼime unu laghachi nʼụlọ nne ya. Ka Onyenwe anyị gosi unu obiọma dịka unu si gosi mụ onwe m, na ndị unu nwụrụ anwụ.
9 YHWH grants to you, and you find rest each in the house of her husband”; and she kisses them, and they lift up their voice and weep.
Ka Onyenwe anyị nyekwa unu di ọzọ ma meekwa ka unu chọta udo nʼezinaụlọ ọzọ.” Mgbe ahụ Naomi suturu ha ọnụ, ha niile kwara akwa.
10 And they say to her, “Surely with you we go back to your people.”
Ma Ọpa na Rut zara Naomi sị ya, “E, anyị agaghị ala. Anyị ga-esoro gị laghachikwuru ndị gị.”
11 And Naomi says, “Turn back, my daughters; why do you go with me? Are there yet to me sons in my bowels that they have been to you for husbands?
Naomi zara sị ha, “Laghachinụ ụmụ m, ọ bụ nʼihi gịnị ka unu ga-eji soro m laa? E nwere m ike ịmụta ụmụ ndị ikom ọzọ ndị ga-abụ di unu?
12 Turn back, my daughters, go, for I am too aged to be to a husband; though I had said, There is for me hope, also, I have been tonight to a husband, and also I have borne sons:
Laghachinụ azụ ụmụ m. Emeela m agadi ịlụ di ọzọ. A sịkwarị na olileanya fọdụụrụ m ịlụ di na ịmụta ụmụ ndị ikom nʼabalị taa,
13 do you wait for them until they grow up? Do you shut yourselves up for them, not to be to a husband? No, my daughters, for more bitter to me than to you, for the hand of YHWH has gone out against me.”
unu ga-echere ruo mgbe ha tolitere? Unu ga-anọ na-alụghị di ọzọ? Mba, ụmụ m ndị inyom, ọnọdụ m dị ilu karịa nke unu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị esepụtala aka ya imegide m.”
14 And they lift up their voice, and weep again, and Orpah kisses her mother-in-law, and Ruth has cleaved to her.
Ha welitere olu ha kwaa akwa ọzọ. Mgbe ahụ Ọpa suturu nne di ya ọnụ ma Rut kwusịrị ike nʼebe ọ nọ.
15 And she says, “Behold, your sister-in-law has turned back to her people, and to her god, turn back after your sister-in-law.”
Ma Naomi gwara ya sị, “Lee, nwunye nwanne di gị alaghachikwurula ndị nwe ya na chi ya niile, soro ya laa.”
16 And Ruth says, “Do not urge me to leave you—to turn back from after you; for to where you go I go, and where you lodge I lodge; your people [is] my people, and your God my God.
Ma Rut zara, “Akwagidela m ka m hapụ gị, maọbụ ime ka m site nʼiso gị chigharịa. Aga m esoro gị gaa ebe ọbụla ị na-aga. Aga m esokwa gị biri nʼebe ọbụla ị ga-ebi; ndị gị ga-abụ ndị m, Chineke gị ga-abụkwa Chineke m,
17 Where you die I die, and there I am buried; thus does YHWH to me, and thus He adds—for death itself parts between me and you.”
ebe ị nwụrụ ka m ga-anwụ, ebe ahụ kwa ka a ga-eli m. Ka Onyenwe anyị mesoo m mmeso, otu ọbụla mmeso ahụ si dị njọ, ma ọ bụrụ na m ekwere ka ihe ọzọ, ma ọ bụghị ọnwụ, kewaa mụ na gị.”
18 And she sees that she is strengthening herself to go with her, and she ceases to speak to her;
Mgbe Naomi hụrụ na Rut ekpebiela nʼime onwe ya iso ya, ọ kwụsịrị ịgwa ya okwu ọzọ.
19 and the two of them go until their coming to Beth-Lehem; and it comes to pass at their coming to Beth-Lehem, that all the city is moved at them, and they say, “Is this Naomi?”
Ya mere, ha abụọ gagidere ije rute Betlehem. Mgbe ha batara Betlehem, obodo ahụ mere mkpọtụ, nʼihi nlọta ha. Ndị inyom jụrụ sị, “Ọ bụ Naomi bụ nke a nʼezie?”
20 And she says to them, “Do not call me Naomi; call me Mara, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly to me,
Ma Naomi zara ha sị, “Unu akpọkwala m Naomi, kama kpọọnụ m Mara, nʼihi na Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile emeela ka ndụ m jupụta nʼihe ilu.
21 I went out full, and YHWH has brought me back empty, why do you call me Naomi, and YHWH has testified against me, and the Almighty has done evil to me?”
Aka m juru eju mgbe m si nʼebe a pụọ, ma Onyenwe anyị emeela ka m gbara aka lọta. Gịnị mere unu ji akpọ m Naomi ebe ọ bụ na Onyenwe anyị gbakụtara m azụ, ebe ọ bụ na Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile mere ka nsogbu dakwasị m.”
22 And Naomi turns back, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who has turned back from the fields of Moab, and they have come to Beth-Lehem at the commencement of barley-harvest.
Otu a ka Naomi na Rut onye Moab bụ nwunye nwa ya si laghachi nʼala Juda. Oge ha ji lọbata nʼobodo Betlehem bụ oge a na-amalite ịghọ ọka balị.
