Le esime ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo nɔ Israel dzi ɖum la, dɔ va to ɖe anyigba la dzi. Ŋutsu aɖe si tso Efraim ƒe to la me, tso Betlehem le Yudanyigba dzi la ʋu kple srɔ̃a kple viawo yi ɖanɔ Moabnyigba dzi.
2 He was clepid Elymelech, and his wijf Noemy, and the twey sones, `the oon was clepid Maalon, and the tother Chelion, Effrateis of Bethleem of Juda; and thei entriden in to the cuntrey of Moab, and dwelliden there.
Ŋutsu la ŋkɔe nye Elimelek, srɔ̃a ŋkɔe nye Naomi, eye wo viŋutsu eveawo ŋkɔwoe nye Maxlon kple Kilion. Wonye Efraimtɔwo tso Betlehem, Yuda heʋu va Moabnyigba dzi, eye wonɔ afi ma.
3 And Elymelech, the hosebonde of Noemy, diede, and sche lefte with the sones;
Elimelek, Naomi srɔ̃ ku, eye wòsusɔ Naomi kple via ŋutsu eveawo.
4 and thei token wyues of Moab, of whiche wyues oon was clepid Orpha, the tother Ruth. And the sones dwelliden there ten yeer,
Viŋutsu eve siawo ɖe Moab nyɔnuwo; ɖeka ŋkɔe nye Orpa, eye evelia ŋkɔe nye Rut. Esi wonɔ afi ma abe ƒe ewo ene la,
5 and bothe dieden, that is, Maalon and Chelion; and the womman lefte, and was maad bare of twey fre sones, and hosebonde.
Maxlon kple Kilion hã ku, ale wòsusɔ wo dada Naomi ko; srɔ̃ kple vi aɖeke meganɔ esi o.
6 And sche roos to go with euer eithir wijf of hir sones in to hir cuntrey fro the cuntrey of Moab; for sche hadde herd, that the Lord hadde biholde his puple, and hadde youe `metis to hem.
Azɔ Naomi ɖoe be yeatrɔ ayi ɖe aƒe le Israelnyigba dzi, elabena ese le Moab be Yehowa gave Israelviwo nu, ale be woƒe agblemenukuwo ganyo.
7 Therfor sche yede out of the place of hir pilgrymage with euer either wijf of hir sones; and now sche was set in the weie of turnyng ayen in to the lond of Juda,
Eya ta eya kple lɔ̃xoyɔvi eveawo dzra ɖo hedze mɔ ɖo ta aƒe.
8 and sche seide to hem, Go ye in to `the hows of youre modir; the Lord do mercy with you, as ye diden with the deed men, and with me;
Ke esi wonɔ mɔa dzi yina la, Naomi trɔ eƒe susu, eye wògblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvi eveawo be, “Mitrɔ miayi aƒe le mia dzilawo gbɔ. Yehowa nave mia nu abe ale si miewɔ nyui na mia srɔ̃wo kple nye ŋutɔ ene.
9 the Lord yyue to you to fynde reste in the howsis of hosebondis, whiche ye schulen take. And sche kiste hem. Whiche bigunnen to wepe with `vois reisid,
Yehowa ŋutɔ nana be mia dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nakpɔ dzidzeme le srɔ̃ŋutsu bubu ƒe aƒe me.” Naomi gbugbɔ nu na wo, eye wofa avi hehehe.
10 and to seie, We schulen go with thee to thi puple.
Wogblɔ na Naomi be, “Míakplɔ wò ɖo ayi wò ƒometɔwo gbɔ.”
11 To whiche sche answeride, My douytris, turne ye ayen, whi comen ye with me? Y haue no more sones in my wombe, that ye moun hope hosebondis of me; my douytris of Moab, turne ye ayen, and go;
Ke Naomi gblɔ na wo be, “Vinyenyɔnuwo, mitrɔ dzo. Nu ka ta miayi kplim ɖo? Ɖe mate ŋu adzi viŋutsuwo na mi miaɖea?
12 for now Y am maad eeld, and Y am not able to boond of mariage; yhe, thouy Y myyte conseyue in this nyyt,
Vinyenyɔnuwo, mitrɔ yi miaƒe aƒe me. Ne mesusu be mɔkpɔkpɔ gale asinye, eye meɖe srɔ̃ zã sia me, eye medzi viŋutsuwo hã la,
13 and bere sones, if ye wolen abide til thei wexen, and fillen the yeris of mariage, `ye schulen sunner be eld wymmen than ye schulen be weddid; I biseche, `nyle ye, my douytris, for youre angwische oppressith me more, and the hond of the Lord yede out ayens me.
ɖe mialala va se ɖe esime woatsia? Ɖe mianɔ anyi srɔ̃maɖemaɖee va se ɖe ɣe ma ɣia? Ao, vinyenyɔnuwo, ele veyem na mi wu miawo ŋutɔ gɔ̃ hã, elabena Yehowa do asi ɖe gbɔnye!”
14 Therfor, whanne the vois was reisid, eft thei bigunnen to wepe. Orpha kisside `the modir of hir hosebonde, and turnede ayen, and Ruth `cleuyde to `the modir of hir hosebonde.
Wogade asi avifafa me. Orpa gbugbɔ nu na lɔ̃xoa hedo hedenyui nɛ, eye wòtrɔ yi aƒe me, ke Rut ya lé ɖe lɔ̃xoa ŋu.
15 To whom Noemy seide, Lo! thi kyneswomman turnede ayen to hir puple, and to hir goddis; go thou with hir.
Ale Naomi gblɔ nɛ be, “Rut, atsuwòsi trɔ yi eƒe amewo kple eƒe mawuwo gbɔ; wò hã, trɔ nàyi aƒe me kplii.”
16 And sche answeride, Be thou not `aduersarye to me, that Y forsake thee, and go awei; whidur euer thou schalt go, Y schal go, and where thou schalt dwelle, and Y schal dwelle togidere; thi puple is my puple, and thi God is my God;
Rut ɖo eŋu be, “Mègaƒoe ɖe nunye be magblẽ wò ɖi alo matrɔ le yowòme o. Afi si nàyi la, afi mae mayi, eye afi si nànɔ la, afi mae manɔ. Wò dukɔ anye nye dukɔ, eye wò Mawu anye nye Mawu.
17 what lond schal resseyue thee diynge, Y schal die ther ynne, and there Y schal take place of biriyng; God do to me these thingis, and adde these thingis, if deeth aloone schal not departe me and thee.
Afi si nàku ɖo la, afi mae maku ɖo, eye afi mae woaɖim ɖo. Yehowa nefiam, ne wòagafiam ɖe edzi. Naneke mama nye kple wò dome o, negbe ku ko.”
18 Therfor Noemy siy, that Ruth hadde demyde with stidefast soule to go with hir, and sche nolde be ayens hir, nether counseile ferthere turnynge ayen `to her cuntrei men.
Esi Naomi kpɔ be Rut ɖo kplikpaa be yeayi kpli ye la, edzudzɔ nyaƒoƒo ɖe enu,
19 And thei yeden forth togidere, and camen in to Bethleem; and whanne thei entriden in to the citee, swift fame roos anentis alle men, and wymmen seiden, This is thilke Noemy.
ale woyi mɔzɔzɔa dzi va se ɖe esime woɖo Betlehem. Zi ƒo le du blibo la me. Nyɔnuwo bia be, “Naomi nye esia nyateƒea?”
20 To whiche sche seide, Clepe ye not me Noemy, that is, fair, but `clepe ye me Mara, that is, bittere; for Almyyti God hath fillid me greetli with bitternesse.
Naomi ɖo eŋu be, “Migayɔm azɔ be Naomi o. Naomi gɔmee nye dzidzɔnu. Miyɔm azɔ be Mara. Mara gɔmee nye vevesese, elabena Aƒetɔ Mawu, Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la na nye agbenɔnɔ zu vevesese sɔŋ.
21 Y yede out ful, and the Lord ledde me ayen voide; whi therfor clepen ye me Noemy, whom the Lord hath `maad low, and Almyyti God hath turmentid?
Nu geɖewo nɔ asinye esi medzo le afi sia, ke Yehowa na metrɔ gbɔ kple asi ƒuƒlu. Nu ka ta miayɔm be Naomi esime Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ trɔ megbe dem, eye wòna fukpekpe va dzinye ɖo?”
22 Therfor Noemy cam with Ruth of Moab, `the wijf of hir sone, fro the lond of hir pilgrimage, and turnede ayen in to Bethleem, whanne barli was ropun first.
Ale Naomi kple lɔ̃xoyɔvia Rut, Moab nyɔnu la gbɔ tso Moabnyigba dzi. Wova ɖo Betlehem le nuŋeɣi la ƒe gɔmedzedze.
