1 In diebus unius iudicis, quando iudices praeerant, facta est fames in Terra. Abiitque homo de Bethlehem Iuda, ut peregrinaretur in regione Moabitide cum uxore sua, ac duobus liberis.

And [the] name of the man [was] Elimelech and [the] name of wife his [was] Naomi and [the] name of [the] two sons his - [was] Mahlon and Kilion Ephrathites from Beth-lehem Judah and they came [the] region of Moab and they were there.
3 Et mortuus est Elimelech maritus Noemi: remansitque ipsa cum filiis.
And he died Elimelech [the] husband of Naomi and she was left she and [the] two sons her.
4 Qui acceperunt uxores Moabitidas, quarum una vocabatur Orpha, altera vero Ruth. Manseruntque ibi decem annis,

And they died also both of them Mahlon and Kilion and she was left the woman from both children her and from husband her.
6 Et surrexit ut in patriam pergeret cum utraque nuru sua de regione Moabitide: audierat enim quod respexisset Dominus populum suum, et dedisset eis escas.
And she arose she and daughters-in-law her and she returned from [the] region of Moab if she had heard in [the] region of Moab that he had visited Yahweh people his by giving to them food.
7 Egressa est itaque de loco peregrinationis suae, cum utraque nuru: et iam in via revertendi posita in Terram Iuda,
And she went out from the place where she had been there and [the] two daughters-in-law her [were] with her and they went on the way to return to [the] land of Judah.
8 dixit ad eas: Ite in domum matris vestrae, faciat vobiscum Dominus misericordiam, sicut fecistis cum mortuis et mecum.
And she said Naomi to [the] two daughters-in-law her go return [each] woman to [the] house of mother her (may he deal *Q(K)*) Yahweh with you covenant loyalty just as you have dealt with the dead and with me.
9 Det vobis invenire requiem in domibus virorum, quos sortiturae estis. Et osculata est eas. Quae elevata voce flere coeperunt,
May he give Yahweh to you and find rest [each] woman [the] house of husband her and she kissed them and they raised voice their and they wept.
10 et dicere: Tecum pergemus ad populum tuum.
And they said to her that with you we will return to people your.
11 Quibus illa respondit: Revertimini filiae mi, cur venitis mecum? num ultra habebo filios in utero meo, ut viros ex me sperare possitis?
And she said Naomi go back O daughters my why? will you go with me ¿ still [belong] to me [do] sons in inward parts my and they will become of you husbands.
12 Revertimini filiae mi, et abite: iam enim senectute confecta sum, nec apta vinculo coniugali. etiam si possem hac nocte concipere, et parere filios,
Go back O daughters my go for I am [too] old for belonging to a husband if I said there for me [is] hope also I belonged this night to a husband and also I bore sons.
13 si eos expectare velitis donec crescant, et annos pubertatis impleant, ante eritis vetulae quam nubatis. Nolite, quaeso, filiae mi: quia vestra angustia magis me premit, et egressa est manus Domini contra me.
¿ Therefore - will you wait until that they will grow up ¿ therefore will you shut yourselves off to not to belong to a husband may not [it be] O daughters my for it is bitter to me very more than you that it has gone forth on me [the] hand of Yahweh.
14 Elevata igitur voce, rursum flere coeperunt, Orpha osculata est socrum, ac reversa est: Ruth adhaesit socrui suae.
And they raised voice their and they wept again and she kissed Orpah mother-in-law her and Ruth she clung to her.
15 cui dixit Noemi: En reversa est cognata tua ad populum suum, et ad deos suos, vade cum ea.
And she said there! she has returned sister-in-law your to people her and to gods her go back after sister-in-law your.
16 Quae respondit: Ne adverseris mihi ut relinquam te et abeam: quocumque enim perrexeris, pergam: et ubi morata fueris, et ego pariter morabor. Populus tuus populus meus, et Deus tuus Deus meus.
And she said Ruth may not you entreat me to abandon you to turn back from after you for to where you will go I will go and at where you will lodge I will lodge people your [will be] people my and God your [will be] God my.
17 Quae te terra morientem susceperit, in ea moriar: ibique locum accipiam sepulturae. Haec mihi faciat Deus, et haec addat, si non sola mors me et te separaverit.
At where you will die I will die and there I will be buried thus may he do Yahweh to me and thus may he add if death it will separate between me and between you.
18 Videns ergo Noemi, quod obstinato animo Ruth decrevisset secum pergere, adversari noluit, nec ad suos ultra reditum persuadere:
And she saw that [was] determined she to go with her and she ceased to speak to her.
19 profectaeque sunt simul, et venerunt in Bethlehem. Quibus urbem ingressis, velox apud cunctos fama percrebruit: dicebantque mulieres: Haec est illa Noemi.

20 Quibus ait: Ne vocetis me Noemi (id est, pulchram) sed vocate me Mara (id est, amaram) quia amaritudine valde replevit me Omnipotens.
And she said to them may not you call me Naomi call me Mara for he has caused bitterness [the] Almighty to me exceedingly.
21 Egressa sum plena, et vacuam reduxit me Dominus. Cur ergo vocatis me Noemi, quam Dominus humiliavit, et afflixit Omnipotens?
I full I went and empty he has brought back me Yahweh why? do you call me Naomi and Yahweh he has testified against me and [the] Almighty he has done harm to me.
22 Venit ergo Noemi cum Ruth Moabitide nuru sua, de terra peregrinationis suae: ac reversa est in Bethlehem, quando primum hordea metebantur.
And she returned Naomi and Ruth the Moabite [woman] daughter-in-law her [was] with her who returned from [the] region of Moab and they they came Beth-lehem at [the] beginning of [the] harvest of barley.
