Ruth 1
1 It happened in the days when the judges ruled that there was a famine in the land, and a certain man of Bethlehem of Judah went to the country of Moab with his wife and his two sons.
At nangyari nang mga kaarawan nang humatol ang mga hukom, na nagkagutom sa lupain. At isang lalaking taga Bethlehem-juda ay yumaong nakipamayan sa lupain ng Moab, siya, at ang kaniyang asawa, at ang kaniyang dalawang anak na lalake.
2 The name of the man was Elimelek, and the name of his wife was Naomi. The names of his two sons were Mahlon and Kilion, who were Ephrathites of Bethlehem of Judah. They arrived at the country of Moab and lived there.
At ang pangalan ng lalake ay Elimelech, at ang pangalan ng kaniyang asawa ay Noemi, at ang pangalan ng kaniyang dalawang anak ay Mahalon at Chelion, mga Ephrateo na taga Bethlehem-juda. At sila'y naparoon sa lupain ng Moab, at nanirahan doon.
3 Then Elimelek, Naomi's husband, died, and she was left with her two sons.
At si Elimelech na asawa ni Noemi ay namatay: at siya'y naiwan at ang kaniyang dalawang anak.
4 These sons took wives from the women of Moab; the name of one was Orpah, and the name of the other was Ruth. They lived there for about ten years.
At sila'y nagsipagasawa sa mga babae sa Moab; ang pangalan ng isa'y Orpha, at ang pangalan ng isa'y Ruth: at sila'y tumahan doon na may sangpung taon.
5 Then both Mahlon and Kilion died, leaving Naomi without her husband and without her two children.
At namatay kapuwa si Mahalon at si Chelion; at ang babae ay naiwan ng kaniyang dalawang anak at ng kaniyang asawa.
6 Then Naomi decided to leave Moab with her daughters-in-law and return to Judah because she had heard in the region of Moab that Yahweh had helped his people in need and had given them food.
Nang magkagayo'y bumangon siya na kasama ng kaniyang dalawang manugang upang siya'y bumalik mula sa lupain ng Moab: sapagka't kaniyang nabalitaan sa lupain ng Moab kung paanong dinalaw ng Panginoon ang kaniyang bayan sa pagbibigay sa kanila ng tinapay.
7 So she left the place where she had been with her two daughters-in-law, and they walked down the road to return to the land of Judah.
At siya'y umalis sa dakong kaniyang kinaroroonan, at ang kaniyang dalawang manugang na kasama niya: at sila'y yumaon upang bumalik sa lupain ng Juda.
8 Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go, return, each of you, to your mother's house. May Yahweh show kindness toward you, as you have shown kindness toward the dead and toward me.
At sinabi ni Noemi sa kaniyang dalawang manugang, Kayo'y yumaon, na bumalik ang bawa't isa sa inyo sa bahay ng kaniyang ina: gawan nawa kayo ng magaling ng Panginoon, na gaya ng inyong ginawa sa mga namatay at sa akin.
9 May the Lord grant you that you find rest, each of you in the house of another husband.” Then she kissed them, and they raised their voices and cried.
Ipagkaloob nawa ng Panginoon na kayo'y makasumpong ng kapahingahan, bawa't isa sa inyo sa bahay ng kaniyang asawa. Nang magkagayo'y kaniyang hinagkan sila; at inilakas nila ang kanilang tinig at nagsiiyak.
10 They said to her, “No! We will return with you to your people.”
At sinabi nila sa kaniya, Hindi, kundi kami ay babalik na kasama mo sa iyong bayan.
11 But Naomi said, “Turn back, my daughters! Why will you go with me? Do I still have sons in my womb for you, so that they may become your husbands?
At sinabi ni Noemi, Kayo'y magsibalik, mga anak ko: bakit kayo'y yayaong kasama ko? may mga anak pa ba ako sa aking tiyan, na magiging inyong mga asawa?
12 Turn back, my daughters, go your own way, for I am too old to have a husband. If I said, 'I hope I get a husband tonight,' and then give birth to sons,
Kayo'y magsibalik, mga anak ko, magpatuloy kayo ng inyong lakad; sapagka't ako'y totoong matanda na upang magkaroon pa ng asawa. Kung aking sabihin, Ako'y may pagasa, kung ako'y magkaasawa man ngayong gabi, at ako'y magkakaanak man;
13 would you therefore wait until they were grown? Would you choose not to marry a husband? No, my daughters! It is exceedingly bitter to me for your sake that the hand of Yahweh has gone out against me.”
Maghihintay kaya kayo hanggang sa sila'y lumaki? magbabawa kaya kayo na magkaasawa? huwag, mga anak ko: sapagka't daramdamin kong mainam dahil sa inyo, sapagka't ang kamay ng Panginoon ay nanaw laban sa akin.
14 Then her daughters-in-law lifted up their voices and cried again. Orpah kissed her mother-in-law farewell, but Ruth held on to her.
At inilakas nila ang kanilang tinig at nagsiiyak uli; at hinagkan ni Orpha ang kaniyang biyanan; nguni't si Ruth ay yumakap sa kaniya.
15 Naomi said, “Listen, your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and to her gods. Go back with your sister-in-law.”
At sinabi niya, Narito, ang iyong hipag ay bumalik na sa kaniyang bayan, at sa kaniyang dios; bumalik kang sumunod sa iyong hipag.
16 But Ruth said, “Do not make me go away from you, for where you go, I will go; where you stay, I will stay; your people will be my people, and your God will be my God.
At sinabi ni Ruth, Huwag mong ipamanhik na kita'y iwan, at bumalik na humiwalay sa iyo; sapagka't kung saan ka pumaroon, ay paroroon ako: at kung saan ka tumigil, ay titigil ako: ang iyong bayan ay magiging aking bayan, at ang iyong Dios ay aking Dios:
17 Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May Yahweh punish me, and even more, if anything but death ever separates us.”
Kung saan ka mamatay, ay mamamatay ako, at doon ako ililibing; hatulan ako ng Panginoon at lalo na, maliban ang kamatayan ang maghiwalay sa iyo at sa akin.
18 When Naomi saw that Ruth was determined to go with her, she stopped arguing with her.
At nang makita ni Noemi na mapilit ng pagsama sa kaniya, ay tumigil ng pagsasalita sa kaniya.
19 So the two traveled until they came to the town of Bethlehem. It happened that when they arrived in Bethlehem, the entire town was very excited about them. The women said, “Is this Naomi?”
Sa gayo'y yumaon silang dalawa hanggang sa sila'y dumating sa Bethlehem. At nangyari, nang sila'y dumating sa Bethlehem, na ang buong bayan ay napataka sa kanila; at sinabi ng mga babae, Ito ba'y si Noemi?
20 But she said to them, “Do not call me Naomi. Call me Bitter, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.
At sinabi niya sa kanila, Huwag na ninyo akong tawaging Noemi, tawagin ninyo akong Mara: sapagka't ginawan ako ng kapaitpaitan ng Makapangyarihan sa lahat.
21 I went out full, but Yahweh has brought me home again empty. So why do you call me Naomi, seeing Yahweh has condemned me, that the Almighty has afflicted me?”
Ako'y umalis na puno, at ako'y iniuwi ng Panginoon na walang dala. Bakit ninyo ako tinatawag na Noemi, yamang ang Panginoon ay nagpatotoo laban sa akin, at dinalamhati ako ng Makapangyarihan sa lahat?
22 So Naomi and Ruth the Moabite woman, her daughter-in-law, returned from the country of Moab. They came to Bethlehem at the beginning of the barley harvest.
Sa gayo'y nagsibalik si Noemi at si Ruth na Moabita, na kaniyang manugang na kasama niya, na nagsibalik mula sa lupain ng Moab: at sila'y nagsidating sa Bethlehem sa pasimula ng pagaani ng sebada.
