< Ruth 1 >
1 During the time before kings ruled Israel, (there was a famine/the people there had nothing to eat). There was a man who lived there whose name was Elimelech. His wife’s name was Naomi, and his sons’ names were Mahlon and Chilion. They were all from Bethlehem [town], from the Ephrath [clan] in Judah [region].
Napasamak kadagiti al-aldaw a nagturay dagiti uk-ukom nga adda iti nakaro a panagbisin iti rabaw ti daga. Ket napan ti maysa a lalaki taga-Bethlehem ti Judah idiay pagilian iti Moab a kaduana ti asawana ken ti dua a putotna a lallaki.
2 Because of the famine, they left Bethlehem and went east to [live for a while in] Moab [region].
Ti nagan ti lalaki ket Elimelec, ken ti nagan ti asawana ket Naomi. Ti nagan dagiti dua a putotna a lallaki ket Mahalon ken Kilion, a nagtaud iti puli ni Efrata iti Bethlehem idiay Judah. Simmangpetda iti pagilian ti Moab ket nagnaedda sadiay.
3 While they were there, Elimelech died, and Naomi had only her two sons with her.
Kalpasanna, natay ni Elimelec, nga asawa ni Naomi, ket nabati isuna a kaduana dagiti dua nga annakna a lallaki.
4 They married women from Moab. One of them was named Orpah, and the other one was named Ruth. But after they had lived in that area for about ten years,
Nangala dagitoy nga annakna a lallaki iti assawada manipud kadagiti babbai iti Moab; ti nagan iti maysa ket Orfa ken Ruth met ti nagan ti maysa. Nagnaedda sadiay iti agarup sangapulo a tawen.
5 Mahlon and Chilion died. So then Naomi had no husband and no sons.
Kalpasanna, agpada a natay da Mahalon ken Kilion, ket nabati ni Naomi nga awan ti asawana ken awan dagiti dua nga annak.
6 One day while Naomi was in Moab, she heard someone say that Yahweh had helped his people in Israel and that now there was plenty of food to eat. So she prepared to return [to Bethlehem].
Ket inkeddeng ni Naomi a pumanaw idiay Moab a kaduana dagiti manugangna a babbai ket agsublida idiay Judah. Nangngeganna iti rehion iti Moab a tinulungan ni Yahweh dagiti tattaona nga agkasapulan ken inikkanna ida iti taraon.
7 She left the place where she had been living and started to walk [with her daughters-in-law] along the road back to Judah.
Pinanawanna ngarud ti lugar a pinagnanaedanna a kaduana dagiti dua a manugangna a babbai, ket nagdaliasatda iti dalan nga agsubli iti daga ti Juda.
8 Then as the three of them were walking, Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Each of you should turn around and go back to your mother’s home. You treated [your husbands] kindly [before] they died, and you have treated me kindly.
Kinuna ni Naomi kadagiti dua a manugangna a babai, “Mapankayo, tunggal maysa kadakayo agsublikayon iti pagtaengan dagiti innayo. Ipakita koma ni Yahweh ti kinapudnona kadakayo, kas iti panangipakitayo iti kinapudnoyo kadagiti natay ken kasta met kaniak.
9 Now I desire that Yahweh will enable each of you to have another husband in whose home you will [feel] secure.” Then she kissed both of them, and they cried aloud.
Ipalubos koma ti Apo iti tunggal maysa kadakayo a makasarak ti inana, iti balay iti sabali nga asawa.” Kalpasanna inagkanna ida, ket nagsangitda iti napigsa.
10 They each said, “No, we want to go with you as you return to your relatives.”
Kinunada kenkuana, “Saan! Sumurotkami kenka nga agsubli kadagiti tattaom.”
11 But Naomi said, “No, my daughters, return home. (It will not do any good for you to come with me!/What good will it do for you to come with me?) [RHQ] Do you think I will get married again and have more sons who could become your husbands?
Ngem kinuna ni Naomi, “Agsublikayo, annakko! Apay a sumurotkayo kaniak? Adda pay kadi aya ti annak a lallaki iti tianko a para kadakayo, tapno agbalinda nga assawayo?
12 Even if I thought I could have another husband, and even if I got married today and became pregnant [EUP] tonight and later gave birth to sons,
Agsublikayo, annakko, mapankayon iti bukodyo a dalan; gapu ta baketak unayen tapno maaddaan pay iti asawa. Ta no kunak, maaddaanak koma iti asawa iti daytoy a rabii ket kalpasanna mangipasngayak iti annak a lallaki,
13 would you remain single/unmarried until they grew up [and became old enough] for you to marry? No, my daughters, [you would not do that]. Your situations are bad [because your husbands have died, but it is possible that you will each marry again]. My situation is much worse, because Yahweh [SYN] has opposed me, [and now I am too old to get married again].”
urayenyo kadi ngarud agingga a dumakkelda? Aguraykayo kadi ket saankayo a mangasawa ita? Saan, annakko! Maladingitanak unay ti nakarkaro ngem iti panagladingityo, gapu ta maibusoren kaniak ti ima ni Yahweh.”
14 Then Ruth and Orpah cried again [because of what Naomi said]. Then Orpah kissed her mother-in-law goodbye, [and left], but Ruth clung to Naomi.
Ket pinigsaan dagiti manugangna a babbai dagiti timekda ket nagsangitda manen. Inagkan ni Orfa ti katuganganna kas panagpakadana, ngem nagtalinaed ni Ruth kenkuana.
15 Naomi said to her, “Look! Your sister-in-law is going back to her relatives and to her gods! Go back with her!”
Kinuna ni Naomi kenkuana, “Dumngegka, nagsublin ti abiratmo kadagiti tattaona ken kadagiti diosna. Makikuyogkan nga agsubli iti abiratmo.”
16 But Ruth replied, “No! Don’t urge me to leave you! I [want to] go with you. Where you go, I will go. Where you stay, I will stay. Your relatives will be my relatives, and the God you [worship] will be the God I [worship].
Ngem kinuna ni Ruth, “Saannak a paadaywen kenka, ta no sadino ti papanam, mapanak met; sadinoman a pagnaedam, idiay met iti pagnaedak; agbalin a tattaok dagiti tattaom, ket agbalin met a Diosko ti Diosmo.
17 Where you die, I will die. Where you are buried, I will be buried. May Yahweh punish me severely if I separate from you. I will be separated from you only [when one of us] dies.”
Sadino man a pakatayam, idiayto metten ti pakatayak, ket sadiayto ti pakaitanemak. Dusaennak koma ni Yahweh, ken uray nakarkaro pay, no adda ti aniaman a banag a mamagsina kadata malaksid iti patay.
18 When Naomi realized that Ruth was very determined to go with her, she stopped urging her [to return home].
Idi nakita ni Naomi a natibker ti pangngeddeng ni Ruth a sumurot kenkuana, insardengnan ti makisinnupiat kenkuana.
19 So the two women continued walking until they came to Bethlehem. When they arrived there, everyone in town was excited [to see] them. The women [of the town] exclaimed, “(Can this be Naomi?/It is difficult to believe that this is Naomi!)” [RHQ]
Nagdaliasat ngarud dagiti dua agingga a nakadanunda iti ili ti Bethlehem. Ket napasamak nga idi simmangpetda idiay Bethlehem, ti amin nga ili ket magagaran unay maipapan kadakuada. Kinuna dagiti babbai, “Daytoy kadi ni Naomi?”
20 Naomi said to them, “Don’t call me Naomi, [which means ‘pleasant’]. Instead, call me Mara, [which means ‘bitter’], because God Almighty has made my life very unpleasant.
Ngem kinunana kadakuada, “Saandak nga awagan iti Naomi. Awagandak a Napait, gapu ta pinarigatnak iti nakaro ti Mannakabalin-amin.
21 When I left here, I [felt] rich, [because I had a family]. But Yahweh has brought me back here and now I [feel] poor, [because I have no family]. Do not call me Naomi [RHQ]. [I feel as though] Yahweh has spoken against (OR, afflicted) me. Almighty [God] has caused me to experience a great tragedy.”
Pimmanawak a napnoan, ngem pinagawidnak manen ni Yahweh nga awanan. Isu nga apay nga awagandak iti Naomi, makitkitak nga inlunodnak ni Yahweh, a pinarigatnak ti Mannakabalin-amin?”
22 That [summarizes the account] of Naomi returning home along with her daughter-in-law Ruth, the woman from Moab. And [it happened that] when they arrived in Bethlehem, the barley [grain] harvest was just beginning.
Nagsubli ngarud ni Naomi ken ni Ruth a Moabita a manugangna, manipud iti pagilian ti Moab. Simmangpetda idiay Bethlehem idi mangrugi iti panagapit iti sebada.
