< Ruth 1 >
1 Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Beth-lehem-judah went to dwell in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
A IA i ka wa i noho ai na lunakanawai i alii wi iho la ka aina, a hele aku la kekahi kanaka no Betelehemaiuda, e noho ma ka aina i Moaba, oia a me kana wahine, a me kana mau keikikane elua.
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 of Beth-lehem-judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.
O Elimeleka ka inoa o ua kanaka la, a o Naomi ka inoa o kana wahine, o Mahelona ma laua o Kiliona, na inoa o kana mau keikikane; no Eperata lakou, no Betelehemaiuda, A hele aku lakou i ka aina i Moaba, a noho iho la malaila.
3 And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
Make iho la o Elimeleka, ke kane a Naomi; a koe ka wahine, a me kana mau keikikane elua.
4 And they took to themselves 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.
A lawe laua i wahine na laua, no na kaikamahine o Moaba. O Orepa ka inoa o kekahi, a o Ruta ka inoa o ka lua. Noho no lakou ilaila, he umi paha makahiki.
5 And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left by her two sons and her husband.
A make iho la o Mahelona ma laua o Kiliona; a haaleleia ua wahine la e kana mau keiki elua, a me kana kane.
6 Then she arose with her daughters-in-law, that she might return from the country of Moab: for she had heard in the country of Moab how that the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread.
Alaila ku mai la oia a me kana mau hunonawahine, a hoi mai la, mai ka aina o Moaba mai; no ka mea, ua lohe oia ma ka aina o Moaba, i ko Iehova ike ana mai i kona poe kanaka, me ka haawi ana mai ia lakou i ka berena.
7 Wherefore she went forth from the place where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.
Hele aku la oia iwaho o kahi ana i noho ai, me kana mau hunonawahine elua; a hele mai la lakou ma ke ala, e hoi ai i ka aina i Iuda.
8 And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, Go, return each to her mother's house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
Olelo aku la Naomi i kana mau hunonawahine elua, O haele, a hoi kela mea keia mea o olua i ka hale o kona makuwahine; a na Iehova no e lokomaikai mai ia olua, e like me ka olua i hana mai ai i na mea i make, a ia'u no hoi.
9 The LORD grant you that ye may find rest, each [of you] in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
Na Iehova no e haawi mai ia olua i ka hoomaha, o kela mea keia mea o olua ma ka hale o kana kane iho. Alaila, honi aku la oia ia laua, a hookiekie lakou i ko lakou leo, a uwe ae la.
10 And they said to her, surely we will return with thee to thy people.
I mai la laua ia ia, He oiaio no, hele pu maua me oe, i kou hoi ana i kou poe kanaka.
11 And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with me? shall I bear more sons, that they may be your husbands?
Olelo hou mai la o Naomi, E na kaikamahine a'u, o hoi. No ke aha la olua e hele pu ai me au? He mau keiki hou anei iloko o ko'u opu, i mau kane na olua?
12 Turn again, my daughters, go [your way]; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope, [if] I should have a husband also to-night, and should also bear sons;
E hoi olua, e na kaikamahine a'u, o hele, no ka mea, ua luwahine au, aole e loaa ke kane hou. A ina paha e olelo au, ua laua ko'u manao, a, ina he kane ka'u i keia po, a hanau na keikikane;
13 Would ye wait for them till they should be grown? would ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes, that the hand of the LORD has gone out against me.
E kakali anei olua ia laua, a nui laua? No laua anei olua e noho kane ole ai? Uoki, e na kaikamahine a'u; no ka mea, ua nui loa ko'u ehaeha no olua, i ke kau ana o ko Iehova lima maluna o'u.
14 And they lifted up their voice, and wept again. And Orpah kissed her mother-in-law; but Ruth cleaved to her.
Hookiekie hou aku la lakou i ko lakou leo, a uwe aku la. Honi mai la o Orepa i kona makuahonowaiwahine; aka, pili mai la o Ruta ia ia.
15 And she said, Behold, thy sister-in-law hath gone back to her people, and to her gods: return thou after thy sister-in-law.
I aku la keia, Aia hoi, na hoi aku kou hoahanau, i kona poe kanaka, a i kona poe akua. E hoi aku oe mamuli o kou punalua.
16 And Ruth said, Entreat me not to leave thee, [or] to return 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:
Olelo mai la o Ruta ia ia, Mai nonoi mai oe ia'u, e haalele ia oe, a e hoi aku, mai ka hahai ana ia oe; no ka mea, ma kou wahi e hele ai, malaila au e hele ai, ma kou wahi e moe ai, malaila au e moe ai: o kou poe kanaka, no'u ia poe kanaka, o kou Akua, no'u ia Akua:
17 Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, [if aught] but death shall part thee and me.
Ma kou wahi e make ai, malaila au e make ai, malaila hoi au e kanuia'i: o ka make oia wale no ko kaua mea e kaawale ai; ina aole, me ia hoi e hana mai ai o Iehova ia'u.
18 When she saw that she was steadfastly resolved to go with her, then she left speaking to her.
A ike mai ia, ua ikaika loa ko Ruta manao e hele pu me ia, alaila, oki iho hi kana olelo ana ia ia.
19 So they two went until they came to Beth-lehem. And it came to pass, when they had come to Beth-lehem, that all the city was moved about them, and they said, [Is] this Naomi?
Hele pu no laua, a hiki aku la i Betelehema. A komo aku la laua iloko o Betelehema, pioloke iho la ke kulanakauhale a pau no laua; i ae la lakou, O Naomi anei keia?
20 And she said to them, Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
I aku lu oia ia lakou, Mai kapa mai oukou ia'u o Naomi, e kapa mai oukou ia'u o Mara; no ka mea, ua hookaumaha loa mai ka Mea mana ia'u.
21 I went out full, and the LORD hath brought me home again empty: why [then] call ye me Naomi, seeing the LORD hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath afflicted me?
Ua hele lako aku au iwaho, hoihoi nele mai o Iehova ia'u. No ke aha la oukou e kapa mai ai ia'u o Naomi? No ka mea, ua hoohaahaa mai o Iehova ia'u, a ua hookaumaha mai o ka Mea mana ia'u.
22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess her daughter-in-law with her, who returned from the country of Moab: and they came to Beth-lehem in the beginning of barley-harvest.
Pela i hoi mai ai o Naomi, a me kana hunonawahine pu me ia, o Ruta, no Moaba, a hele mai no ka aina o Moaba mai; a hiki mai laua i Betelehema i ka manawa o ka hoiliili mua ana i ka hua bale.
