< Rutes 1 >

1 Tanīs dienās, kad soģi valdīja, bija bads zemē. Un viens vīrs no Jūda Bētlemes nogāja piemist Moaba klajumos ar savu sievu un saviem diviem dēliem.
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 sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
2 Un tā vīra vārds bija Elimeleks un viņa sievas vārds Naēmja un viņa abu dēlu vārdi Mālons un Ķiljons, Efratieši no Jūda Bētlemes, un tie nāca Moaba klajumos un tur palika.
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.
3 Un Elimeleks, Naēmjas vīrs, nomira, un viņa palika viena ar saviem diviem dēliem; tie sev ņēma Moabiešu sievas, - tās pirmās vārds bija Arpa un tās otras vārds Rute.
And Elimelech Naomi’s husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
4 Un tie tur palika kādus desmit gadus.
And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years.
5 Tad arī šie abi, Mālons un Ķiljons, nomira, un tā sieva palika viena pēc saviem diviem dēliem un pēc sava vīra.
And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.
6 Un viņa cēlās ar savām vedeklām un griezās atpakaļ no Moaba klajumiem; jo tā bija dzirdējusi Moaba zemē, ka Tas Kungs savus ļaudis piemeklējis un viņiem maizi devis.
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.
7 Tāpēc viņa aizgāja no tās vietas, kur tā bija bijusi, un viņas abas vedeklas ar viņu. Un kad viņa pa ceļu gāja, pāriet uz Jūda zemi,
Wherefore she went forth out of the place where she was, and her two daughters in law with her; and they went on the way to return unto the land of Judah.
8 Tad Naēmja sacīja uz savām abām vedeklām: ejat, griežaties atpakaļ ikviena uz savas mātes namu; lai Tas Kungs žēlastību pie jums dara, itin kā jūs esat darījuši pie tiem aizgājušiem un pie manis.
And Naomi said unto 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.
9 Lai Tas Kungs jums dod, ka jūs dusu atrodat, ikviena sava vīra namā. Un viņa tās skūpstīja. Tad tās pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
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.
10 Un tās sacīja uz viņu: mēs gribam tev līdz iet pie taviem ļaudīm.
And they said unto her, Surely we will return with thee unto thy people.
11 Bet Naēmja sacīja: griežaties atpakaļ manas meitas, kāpēc jums man iet līdz? Vai tad man vēl dēli varētu būt manā klēpī, kas jums varētu būt par vīriem?
And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with me? are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
12 Griežaties atpakaļ, manas meitas, ejat, jo es esmu par vecu, iet pie vīra. Kad es tā sacītu, man vēl ir cerība, un ja man šinī naktī vīrs gadītos, un es dēlus dzemdētu,
Turn again, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have an husband. If I should say, I have hope, if I should have an husband also to night, and should also bear sons;
13 Vai tad jūs gaidītu, kamēr tie uzaugtu? Vai tad jūs ieslēgtos un pie vīra neietu? - Ne tā, manas meitas, man iet daudz grūtāki nekā jums, jo Tā Kunga roka pret mani izstiepusies.
Would ye tarry for them till they were 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 is gone out against me.
14 Tad tās pacēla savu balsi un raudāja atkal, un Arpa skūpstīja savu vīramāti, bet Rute palika pie viņas.
And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth clave unto her.
15 Tad tā sacīja: redzi, tava vīra brāļa sieva griezusies atpakaļ pie saviem ļaudīm un pie sava dieva; griezies arī tu sava vīra brāļa sievai pakaļ.
And she said, Behold, thy sister in law is gone back unto her people, and unto her gods: return thou after thy sister in law.
16 Bet Rute sacīja: nespied mani, tevi atstāt un no tevis aiziet; jo kurp tu iesi, arī es iešu, un kur tu mitīsi, tur arī es mitīšu; tavi ļaudis ir mani ļaudis, un tavs Dievs ir mans Dievs;
And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after 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:
17 Kur tu mirsi, tur es miršu, un tur gribu tapt aprakta; lai Tas Kungs man šā un tā dara, nāve vien mani un tevi šķirs.
Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me.
18 Kad nu viņa redzēja, ka šī bija stipri apņēmusies, viņai iet līdzi, tad viņa mitējās to pārrunāt.
When she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her, then she left speaking unto her.
19 Un abas gāja, kamēr nāca uz Bētlemi. Un notikās, kad viņas Bētlemē nonāca, tad visa pilsēta par tām sacēlās, un tās (sievas) sacīja: vai šī nav Naēmja?
So they two went until they came to Beth-lehem. And it came to pass, when they were come to Beth-lehem, that all the city was moved about them, and they said, Is this Naomi?
20 Bet viņa uz tām sacīja: nesauciet mani par Naēmju (jauka), sauciet mani par Māru (rūgta), jo tas Visuvarenais man piesūtījis lielu sirds rūgtumu.
And she said unto them, Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
21 Pilna es aizgāju, bet tukšai Tas Kungs man licis atpakaļ griezties; kāpēc jūs mani sauksiet Naēmju, kad tomēr Tas Kungs pret mani liecību devis, un tas Visuvarenais mani apbēdinājis?
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?
22 Tā Naēmja griezās atpakaļ, un Rute, tā Moabiešu sieva, viņas vedekla, līdz ar viņu griezās atpakaļ no Moaba, un tās nāca uz Bētlemi ap miežu pļaujamo laiku.
So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter in law, with her, which returned out of the country of Moab: and they came to Beth-lehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
