Ruud 1
1 Waagii xaakinnadu wax xukumi jireen abaar baa dalkii ka dhacday. Markaasaa nin Beytlaxam Yahuudah ka tegey, oo wuxuu qariib ahaan u degay waddankii Moo'aab, isagii iyo naagtiisii, iyo labadiisii wiilba.
In the days of one of the judges, when the judges ruled, there was a famine in the land. And a man from Bethlehem in Judah departed to sojourn in the region of the Moabites with his wife and two children.
2 Oo ninkaas magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Eliimeleg, naagtiisana waxaa la odhan jiray Nimco, labadiisa wiil magacyadooduna waxay ahaayeen Maxloon iyo Kilyoon, oo qoladooduna waxay ahayd reer Efraad oo Beytlaxam Yahuudah ka yimid. Oo waxay soo galeen waddankii Moo'aab, oo halkaasay iska degeen.
He called himself Elimelech, and his wife Naomi, and his two sons, the one Mahlon, and the other Chilion, Ephrathites from Bethlehem in Judah. And entering into the region of the Moabites, they stayed there.
3 Markaasaa waxaa dhintay Eliimeleg oo ahaa Nimco ninkeedii, oo waxaa hadhay iyadii iyo labadeedii wiil.
And Elimelech the husband of Naomi died; and she remained with her sons.
4 Oo iyana waxay naago ka guursadeen dumarkii reer Moo'aab; oo naagahoodii mid magaceedii waxaa la odhan jiray Corfah, tan kale magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Ruud; oo waxay halkaas degganaayeen intii toban sannadood ku dhow.
They took wives from among the Moabites, of whom one was called Orpah, and the other Ruth. And they lived there ten years.
5 Oo haddana Maxloon iyo Kilyoon labadiiba way dhinteen; oo naagtii waxaa ka dhintay labadeedii carruur ahayd iyo ninkeedii.
And they both died, namely Mahlon and Chilion, and the woman was left alone, bereaved of her two children and her husband.
6 Markaasay kacday iyadoo wadata labadii gabdhood ee ay soddohda u ahayd inay ka noqoto waddankii Moo'aab; waayo, waxay waddankii Moo'aab ku maqashay in Rabbigu dadkiisii soo booqday oo uu cunto siiyey.
And she arose so that she might journey to her native land, with both her daughters-in-law, from the region of the Moabites. For she had heard that the Lord had provided for his people and had given them food.
7 Oo markaasay meeshii ay joogtay ka tagtay, oo labadii gabdhood oo ay soddohda u ahaydna way la socdeen; oo jidkay qaadeen inay ku noqdaan dalkii reer Yahuudah.
And so she departed from the place of her sojourn, with both her daughters-in-law, and having set out upon the way, she was about to return to the land of Judah.
8 Markaasaa Nimco waxay ku tidhi labadii gabdhood ee ay soddohda u ahayd, Taga oo middiin kastaaba ha ku noqoto gurigii hooyadeed; oo Rabbigu si raxmad leh ha idiin yeelo taasoo ah sidii aad ula macaamilooteen kuwii dhintay iyo anigaba.
She said to them, “Go to the home of your mother. May the Lord deal mercifully with you, just as you have dealt with the dead and with me.
9 Rabbigu middiin kastaba nasasho ha ku siiyo guriga ninkeeda. Oo markaasay iyagii dhunkatay; oo iyana codkoodii bay kor u qaadeen oo ooyeen.
May he grant you to find rest in the houses of the husbands, whom you will obtain by lot.” And she kissed them. They lifted up their voice, and began to weep,
10 Oo waxay iyadii ku yidhaahdeen, Maya, laakiinse adigaannu kula noqonaynaa xaggii dadkaaga.
and to say, “We will journey with you to your people.”
11 Markaasay Nimco waxay tidhi, Iska noqda, gabdhahaygiiyow, bal maxaad ii raacaysaan? Ma wiilal kalaa uurkayga ku hadhay oo niman idiin noqonaya?
But she answered them, “Return, my daughters. Why come with me? Do I have any more sons in my womb, so that you could hope for husbands from me?
12 Iska noqda, gabdhahaygiiyow, oo iska taga, waayo, waan ka gaboobay inaan nin guursado. Haddii aan odhan lahaa, Weli rajaan qabaa, iyo haddii xataa aan caawa nin guursado, ee haddana wiilal dhalo,
Return, my daughters, go forth. For I am now exhausted by old age, and not fit for the bond of marriage. Even if I were to conceive on this night, and bear sons,
13 haddaba ma waxaad sugaysaan ilaa ay ka koraan? Oo ma sidaas baad isaga daynaysaan inaad niman guursataan? Gabdhahaygiiyow, maya, waayo, taasaan aad uga xumaanayaa idinka aawadiin, waayo, waxaa igu soo baxday gacanta Rabbiga.
if you were willing to wait until they were grown and had completed the years of adolescence, you would be elderly before you could marry. Do not do so, I beg you, my daughters. For your difficulties weigh upon me greatly, and the hand of the Lord has been set against me.”
14 Markaasay codkoodii kor u qaadeen oo haddana way ooyeen; Corfahna soddohdeed bay dhunkatay; Ruudse way ku soo dhegtay.
In response, they lifted up their voice and began to weep again. Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, and then turned back. Ruth clung to her mother-in-law.
15 Oo Nimco waxay ku tidhi, Bal eeg, dumaashidaa waxay ku noqotay dadkeedii iyo ilaaheedii; haddaba adna dumaashidaa daba gal.
Naomi said to her, “See, your kinswoman returns to her people, and to her gods. Hurry after her.”
16 Kolkaasaa Ruud waxay ku tidhi, Ha iga baryin inaan kaa tago, oo aan kaa noqdo, oo aanan ku raacin; maxaa yeelay, meeshii aad tagtid waan tegi doonaa; meeshaad degtidna waan degi doonaa, dadkaaguna wuxuu noqon doonaa dadkayga, Ilaahaaguna wuxuu noqon doonaa Ilaahayga.
She answered, “Do not be against me, as if I would abandon you and go away; for wherever you will go, I will go, and where you will stay, I also will stay with you. Your people are my people, and your God is my God.
17 Meeshaad ku dhimatid ayaan ku dhiman doonaa, oo halkaasaa laygu aasi doonaa. Rabbigu sidaas ha igu sameeyo iyo ka sii badanba, haddii aniga iyo adiga, dhimasho mooyaane, wax kaleto ina kala kexeeyaan.
Whichever land will receive you dying, in the same I will die, and there I will have the place of my burial. May God cause these things to happen to me, and add more also, if anything except death alone should separate you and I.”
18 Oo Nimco, markay aragtay inay aad iyo aad ugu adkaysatay inay raacdo ayay hadalkii ka daysay.
Therefore, Naomi saw that Ruth, being firmly resolved in her soul, was determined to go with her, and that she was unwilling to be dissuaded, and that nothing further could convince her to return to her own.
19 Sidaas daraaddeed labadoodiiba way israaceen ilaa ay yimaadeen Beytlaxam. Oo markay Beytlaxam yimaadeen, magaaladii oo dhammu waa ku soo ururtay, oo dumarkiina waxay yidhaahdeen, Tanu ma Nimco baa?
And so they set out together, and they came to Bethlehem. When they had entered the city, the news quickly spread among them all. And the women said, “This is that Naomi.”
20 Oo iyana waxay iyagii ku tidhi, Ha iigu yeedhina Nimco, laakiinse waxaad iigu yeedhaan Maara; waayo, Qaadirku wuxuu iila macaamilooday si qadhaadh.
But she said to them, “Do not call me Naomi (that is, beautiful), but call me Mara (that is, bitter). For the Almighty has greatly filled me with bitterness.
21 Anigoo buuxaan tegey, oo Rabbigu wuxuu i soo celiyey anigoo madhan. Haddaba maxaad iigu yeedhaysaan Nimco? Maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu waa igu marag furay, oo Qaadirku waa i dhibay.
I went out full and the Lord led me back empty. So then, why call me Naomi, whom the Lord has humbled and the Almighty has afflicted?”
22 Sidaasay Nimco iyo Ruud tii reer Moo'aab ee ay soddohda u ahaydba u noqdeen, oo waxay ka soo laabteen waddankii Moo'aab oo Beytlaxam yimaadeen markay goosashada shaciirku bilaabatay.
Therefore, Naomi went with Ruth, the Moabite, her daughter-in-law, from the land of her sojourn, and returned to Bethlehem, at the time of the first reaping of the barley.
