Ruth 1
1 And it came to pass, in the days when the Judges administered justice, that there was a famine in the land, —and so a certain man went his way, out of Bethlehem-judah to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
Nangyari ito noong mga araw nang ang mga hukom ay namahala na nagkaroon ng taggutom doon, at isang tiyak na lalaki ng Bethlehem ng Juda ang pumunta sa bansa ng Moab kasama ang kaniyang asawa at kaniyang dalawang anak na lalaki.
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 out of Bethlehem-judah, —so they came into the country of Moab, and remained there.
Elimelek ang pangalan ng lalaki at Naomi ang pangalan ng kaniyang asawa. Ang pangalan ng kaniyang dalawang anak na lalaki ay sina Mahlon at Quelion, na mga Efrateo na taga-Bethlehem-Juda. Nakarating sila sa bansa ng Moab at nanirahan doon.
3 And Elimelech, husband of Naomi, died, —and she was left, she and her two sons.
Pagkatapos namatay si Elimelek na asawa ni Naomi, at naiwan siyang kasama ng kaniyang dalawang anak na lalaki.
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.
Itong mga anak na lalaki ay kumuha ng mga asawa mula sa mga kababaihan ng Moab; ang pangalan ng isa ay Orpa at ang pangalan ng isa pa ay Ruth. Nanirahan sila roon nang halos sampung taon.
5 And, they also, both, died, Mahlon and Chilion, —so the woman was bereft of her two sons, and of her husband.
Pagkatapos parehong namatay sina Mahlon at Quelion, kaya naiwan si Naomi wala ang kaniyang asawa at wala ang kaniyang dalawang anak.
6 Then she arose, she and her daughters-in-law, and returned out of the country of Moab, —for she had heard, in the country of Moab, how that Yahweh had visited his people, in giving unto them, bread.
Pagkatapos nagpasya si Naomi na umalis ng Moab kasama ang kaniyang mga manugang at bumalik sa Juda dahil narinig niya sa rehiyon ng Maob na tinulungan ni Yahweh ang kaniyang bayan na nangangailangan at binigyan sila ng pagkain.
7 So she went forth out of the dwelling-place where she had remained, and her two daughters-in-law with her, —and they went on the way, to return unto the land of Judah.
Kaya umalis siya sa lugar kung saan siya naroon kasama ang kaniyang mga manugang na babae at naglakad sila pababa sa daan para bumalik sa lupain ng Juda.
8 Then said Naomi to her two daughters-in-law: Go return, each one to the house of her mother, —Yahweh deal with you in lovingkindness, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
Sinabi ni Naomi sa kaniyang dalawang manugang na babae, “Lumakad, bumalik, kayo bawat isa sa inyo, sa bahay ng inyong ina. Nawa ipakita ni Yahweh ang kabaitan sa inyo, tulad ng pagpapakita ninyo ng katapatan sa namatay at sa akin.
9 Yahweh grant you, that ye may find a place of rest, each one in the house of her husband, —And she kissed them, and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
Nawa idulot sa inyo ng Panginoon ang pahinga, bawat isa sa inyo sa bahay ng panibagong asawa.” Pagkatapos hinalikan niya sila at nagtaas sila ng mga boses at umiyak.
10 And they said to her, —With thee, will we return, unto thy people.
Sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Hindi! Babalik kami kasama mo sa iyong lahi.”
11 Then said Naomi—Go back, my daughters! wherefore should ye journey with me? Have I, yet, sons in my womb, that they should become your, husbands?
Pero sinabi ni Naomi, “Bumalik kayo, aking mga anak! Bakit kayo sasama sa akin? May mga anak pa ba ako sa aking sinapupunan para sa inyo, para maging asawa ninyo?
12 Go back, my daughters, go your way, for I am too old to have a husband, —If I should say, I have, hope, if I should, even to-night have a husband, and should, even bear sons,
Bumalik kayo, aking mga anak, lumakad sa sarili ninyong landas dahil ako ay napakatanda na para magkaroon ng asawa. Kung sabihin ko, “Umaasa akong makakuha ako ng asawa ngayong gabi,' at pagkatapos magsilang ng mga anak na lalaki,
13 would ye, therefore, tarry until they were grown? would ye, therefore, shut yourselves up from having husbands? Nay! my daughters, for it is far more bitter for me than for you, that forth hath gone against me, the hand of Yahweh.
kung gayon maghihintay pa ba kayo hanggang lumaki sila? Maghihintay pa ba kayo at hindi magpapakasal sa mga lalaki ngayon? Huwag, mga anak ko! Ito ay higit na magpapahirap sa akin kaysa magpapahirap sa inyo, dahil bumaling laban sa akin ang kamay ni Yahweh.
14 And they lifted up their voice and wept, yet more. Then Orpah kissed her mother-in- law, but, Ruth, clave unto her.
Pagkatapos ang kaniyang mga manugang ay nagtaas ng kanilang mga boses at muling umiyak. Hinalikan ni Orpah ang kaniyang biyenan nang may pamamaalam, pero si Ruth ay nanatili sa kaniya.
15 And she said—Lo! thy sister-in-law hath gone back, unto her people, and unto her gods, —go thou back, after thy sister-in-law.
Sinabi ni Naomi, “Makinig ka, ang hipag mo ay bumalik na sa kaniyang bayan at sa kaniyang mga diyos! Bumalik ka kasama ang iyong hipag.”
16 And Ruth said—Do not urge me to leave thee, to go back from following 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;
Pero sinabi ni Ruth, “Huwag mo akong palayuin mula sa iyo, sapagkat kung saan ka pupunta, doon ako pupunta; kung saan ka titira, doon ako titira; ang iyong bayan ay magiging aking bayan, at ang iyong Diyos ay magiging aking Diyos.
17 where thou diest, I will die, and, there, will I be buried: So, let Yahweh do to me, and, so, let him add, if, death itself, part me and thee.
Kung saan ka mamamatay, doon ako mamamatay at doon din ako ililibing. Nawa parusahan ako ni Yahweh, at kahit higit pa, kung anuman pero kamatayan kailanman ang magpahiwalay sa atin.
18 And, when she saw that, bravely determined, was she to go with her, she ceased entreating her.
Nang makita ni Naomi na nagpasya nang sumama si Ruth sa kanya, tumigil na siyang makipagtalo sa kaniya.
19 So, they two, went their way, until they entered Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they entered Bethlehem, that all the city was moved concerning them, and the women said—Is this Naomi?
Kaya naglakbay ang dalawa hanggang makarating sila sa bayan ng Bethlehem. Nangyari ito nang dumating sila sa Bethlehem, ang buong bayan ay sobrang nagulat tungkol sa kanila. Sinabi ng mga kababaihan, “Ito ba si Naomi?”
20 And she said unto them, Do not call me Naomi ["Sweet"], —call me Mara ["Bitter"], for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me:
Pero sinabi niya sa kanila, “Huwag ako tawaging Naomi. Tawagin akong Maramdamin, dahil ang Maykapal ay sobrang nagdaramdam sa akin.
21 I was full when I departed, but, empty, am I brought back of Yahweh, —wherefore should ye call me Naomi, when, Yahweh, hath given answer against me, and, the Almighty, hath crushed me?
Lumabas akong puno pero muli akong ibinalik ni Yahweh sa bahay ng walang dala. Kaya bakit tinatawag ninyo akong Naomi, nakikitang hinatulan ako ni Yahweh, na pinahirapan ako ng Maykapal?”
22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the country of Moab, —and, they, entered Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
Kaya sina Naomi at Ruth na Moabita, na kaniyang manugang, ay bumalik mula sa bansa ng Moab. Dumating sila sa Bethlehem sa simula ng pag-aani ng sebada.
