1 Na i nga ra i whakarite ai nga kaiwhakarite, kua pa te matekai ki te whenua. A ka haere tetahi tangata o Peterehema Hura ki te whenua o Moapa noho ai; a ia, tana wahine, me ana tama tokorua.
And it was in [the] days of [the] judging of the judges and it was a famine in the land and he went a man from Beth-lehem Judah to sojourn in [the] region of Moab he and wife his and [the] two sons his.
2 Na, ko te ingoa o taua tangata, ko Erimereke, ko Naomi hoki te ingoa o tana wahine; ko nga ingoa hoki o ana tama tokorua, ko Maharono, ko Kiriono, he Eparati ratou, no Peterehema Hura. Na haere ana ki te whenua o Moapa, a noho ana i reira.
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 Na ka mate a Erimereke, te tahu a Naomi, a mahue iho ko ia, ratou ko ana tama tokorua.
And he died Elimelech [the] husband of Naomi and she was left she and [the] two sons her.
4 Na ka tango wahine raua ma raua i roto i nga wahine o Moapa; ko Oropa te ingoa o tetahi, ko Rutu te ingoa o tetahi, a noho ana i reira, kotahi tekau nga tau.
And they took for themselves wives Moabite [the] name of the one [was] Orpah and [the] name of the second [was] Ruth and they dwelt there about ten years.
5 Na ka mate raua tokorua, a Maharono raua ko Kiriono, a ko te wahine anake te putanga o ana tama tokorua, o tana tahu.
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 Katahi ia ka whakatika, ratou ko ana hunaonga, a hoki ana i te whenua o Moapa; i rongo hoki i te whenua o Moapa kua titiro mai a Ihowa ki tana iwi, kua hoatu e ia he taro ma ratou.
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 Heoi haere atu ana ia i te wahi i noho ai, ratou tahi ko ana hunaonga tokorua, a haere ana i te ara, hoki ana ki te whenua o Hura.
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 Na ka mea a Naomi ki ana hunaonga tokorua, Haere korua, e hoki ki nga whare o o korua whaea: ma Ihowa korua e atawhai; kia rite tana ki ta korua mahi ki nga tupapaku, ki ahau hoki.
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 Ma Ihowa e hoami ki a korua kia kite korua i te okiokinga i roto i te whare o tana tahu, o tana tahu. Na ka kihi ia i a raua, a rahi noa atu o ratou reo ki te tangi.
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 Na ka mea raua ki a ia, Engari me hoki tahi tatou ki tou iwi.
And they said to her that with you we will return to people your.
11 Ano ra ko Naomi, Hoki atu, e aku tamahine: kia haere tahi korua i ahau hei aha? he tama ano ianei enei kei roto i toku kopu hei tane ma korua?
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 Hoki atu, e aku tamahine, haere, kua ruruhitia nei hoki ahau, a e kore e whai tahu. Me i ki ahau, Kei te tumanako ahau, tera ano ahau e whai tane i tenei po, a ka whanau ano he tama maku;
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 Tera ranei korua e tatari ki a raua kia kaumatua ra ano? tera ranei e mau tonu korua ki a raua, a e whakakahore ki te tane? Kahore, e aku tamahine, nui noa atu hoki toku pouri ina whakaaro ki a korua; na te ringa hoki o Ihowa kua puta mai nei ki ahau.
¿ 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 Na ka puaki ano to ratou reo, a ka tangi. Na ka kihi a Oropa i tona hungawai; ko Rutu ia i piri ki a ia.
And they raised voice their and they wept again and she kissed Orpah mother-in-law her and Ruth she clung to her.
15 Na ka mea ia, Nana, kua hoki tou taokete ki tona iwi, ki ona atua: hoki atu, whaia tou taokete.
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 Na ka mea a Rutu, Kaua ra e tohe ki ahau kia whakarerea koe, kia hoki atu i te whai i a koe; ta te mea ka haere ahau ki tau wahi e haere ai, ka noho hoki ki tau wahi e noho ai; ko tou iwi hei iwi moku, ko tou Atua hei Atua moku;
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 Ka mate ahau ki te wahi e mate ai koe, ka tanumia hoki ki reira: kia meatia tenei e Ihowa ki ahau, etahi atu mea ano hoki, ina, ko te mate anake hei wehe i a taua.
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 A, i tona kitenga e u ana tona ngakau kia haere tahi raua, mutu ake tana korero ki a ia.
And she saw that [was] determined she to go with her and she ceased to speak to her.
19 Heoi haere ana raua tokorua, a tae noa ki Peterehema. A, ka tae raua ki Peterehema, na ka oho katoa te pa ki a raua, ka mea nga wahine, Ko Naomi tenei?
And they went [the] two of them until came they Beth-lehem and it was when came they Beth-lehem and it was excited all the city on them and they [fem] said ¿ [is] this Naomi.
20 Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kaua ahau e karangatia, ko Naomi; ko Mara ta koutou e karanga ai ki ahau: he kawa rawa hoki ta te Kaha Rawa mahi ki ahau.
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 Ki tonu ahau i toku haerenga atu; na kua whakahokia kautia mai e Ihowa. Na te aha ahau i karangatia ai ko Naomi e koutou, kua whakaaturia nei hoki toku he e Ihowa, kua tukinotia ahau e te Kaha Rawa?
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 Heoi hoki mai ana a Naomi raua tahi ko tana hunaonga, ko Rutu Moapi: hoki ana i te whenua o Moapa; a haere ana ki Peterehema i te timatanga o te kotinga parei.
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.
