Ruth 1
1 Nangyari ito noong mga araw nang ang mga hukom ay namahala na nagkaroon ng taggutom doon, at isang tiyak na lalaki ng Bethlehem ng Juda ang pumunta sa bansa ng Moab kasama ang kaniyang asawa at kaniyang dalawang anak na lalaki.
And it came to pass when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land: and a man went from Bethleem Juda to sojourn in the land of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
2 Elimelek ang pangalan ng lalaki at Naomi ang pangalan ng kaniyang asawa. Ang pangalan ng kaniyang dalawang anak na lalaki ay sina Mahlon at Quelion, na mga Efrateo na taga-Bethlehem-Juda. Nakarating sila sa bansa ng Moab at nanirahan doon.
And the man's name [was] Elimelech, and his wife's name Noemin, and the names of his two sons Maalon and Chelaion, Ephrathites of Bethleem of Juda: and they came to the land of Moab, and remained there.
3 Pagkatapos namatay si Elimelek na asawa ni Naomi, at naiwan siyang kasama ng kaniyang dalawang anak na lalaki.
And Elimelech the husband of Noemin died; and she was left, and her two sons.
4 Itong mga anak na lalaki ay kumuha ng mga asawa mula sa mga kababaihan ng Moab; ang pangalan ng isa ay Orpa at ang pangalan ng isa pa ay Ruth. Nanirahan sila roon nang halos sampung taon.
And they took to themselves wives, women of Moab; the name of the one [was] Orpha, and the name of the second Ruth; and they lived there about ten years.
5 Pagkatapos parehong namatay sina Mahlon at Quelion, kaya naiwan si Naomi wala ang kaniyang asawa at wala ang kaniyang dalawang anak.
And both Maalon and Chelaion died also; and the woman was left of her husband and her two sons.
6 Pagkatapos nagpasya si Naomi na umalis ng Moab kasama ang kaniyang mga manugang at bumalik sa Juda dahil narinig niya sa rehiyon ng Maob na tinulungan ni Yahweh ang kaniyang bayan na nangangailangan at binigyan sila ng pagkain.
And she rose up and her two daughters-in-law, and they returned out of the country of Moab, for she heard in the country of Moab that the Lord [had] visited his people to give them bread.
7 Kaya umalis siya sa lugar kung saan siya naroon kasama ang kaniyang mga manugang na babae at naglakad sila pababa sa daan para bumalik sa lupain ng Juda.
And she went forth out of the place where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her: and they went by the way to return to the land of Juda.
8 Sinabi ni Naomi sa kaniyang dalawang manugang na babae, “Lumakad, bumalik, kayo bawat isa sa inyo, sa bahay ng inyong ina. Nawa ipakita ni Yahweh ang kabaitan sa inyo, tulad ng pagpapakita ninyo ng katapatan sa namatay at sa akin.
And Noemin said to her daughter-in-law, Go now, return each to the house of her mother: the Lord deal mercifully with you, as you have dealt with the dead, and with me.
9 Nawa idulot sa inyo ng Panginoon ang pahinga, bawat isa sa inyo sa bahay ng panibagong asawa.” Pagkatapos hinalikan niya sila at nagtaas sila ng mga boses at umiyak.
The Lord grant you that you may find rest each of you in the house of her husband: and she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
10 Sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Hindi! Babalik kami kasama mo sa iyong lahi.”
And they said to her, We will return with you to your people.
11 Pero sinabi ni Naomi, “Bumalik kayo, aking mga anak! Bakit kayo sasama sa akin? May mga anak pa ba ako sa aking sinapupunan para sa inyo, para maging asawa ninyo?
And Noemin said, Return now, my daughters; and why do you go with me? have I yet sons in my womb to be your husbands?
12 Bumalik kayo, aking mga anak, lumakad sa sarili ninyong landas dahil ako ay napakatanda na para magkaroon ng asawa. Kung sabihin ko, “Umaasa akong makakuha ako ng asawa ngayong gabi,' at pagkatapos magsilang ng mga anak na lalaki,
Turn now, my daughters, for I am too old to be married: for I said, Suppose I were married, and should bear sons;
13 kung gayon maghihintay pa ba kayo hanggang lumaki sila? Maghihintay pa ba kayo at hindi magpapakasal sa mga lalaki ngayon? Huwag, mga anak ko! Ito ay higit na magpapahirap sa akin kaysa magpapahirap sa inyo, dahil bumaling laban sa akin ang kamay ni Yahweh.
would you wait for them till they should be grown? or would you refrain from being married for their sakes? Not so, my daughters; for I am grieved for you, that the hand of the Lord has gone forth against me.
14 Pagkatapos ang kaniyang mga manugang ay nagtaas ng kanilang mga boses at muling umiyak. Hinalikan ni Orpah ang kaniyang biyenan nang may pamamaalam, pero si Ruth ay nanatili sa kaniya.
And they lifted up their voice, and wept again; and Orpha kissed her mother-in-law and returned to her people; but Ruth followed her.
15 Sinabi ni Naomi, “Makinig ka, ang hipag mo ay bumalik na sa kaniyang bayan at sa kaniyang mga diyos! Bumalik ka kasama ang iyong hipag.”
And Noemin said to Ruth, Behold, your sister-in-law has returned to her people and to her gods; turn now you also after your sister-in-law.
16 Pero sinabi ni Ruth, “Huwag mo akong palayuin mula sa iyo, sapagkat kung saan ka pupunta, doon ako pupunta; kung saan ka titira, doon ako titira; ang iyong bayan ay magiging aking bayan, at ang iyong Diyos ay magiging aking Diyos.
And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave you, or to return from following you; for wherever you go, I will go, and wherever you lodge, I will lodge; your people [shall be] my people, and your God my God.
17 Kung saan ka mamamatay, doon ako mamamatay at doon din ako ililibing. Nawa parusahan ako ni Yahweh, at kahit higit pa, kung anuman pero kamatayan kailanman ang magpahiwalay sa atin.
And wherever you die, I will die, and there will I be buried: the Lord do so to me, and more also, [if I leave you], for death [only] shall divide between me and you.
18 Nang makita ni Naomi na nagpasya nang sumama si Ruth sa kanya, tumigil na siyang makipagtalo sa kaniya.
And Noemin seeing that she was determined to go with her, ceased to speak to her any more.
19 Kaya naglakbay ang dalawa hanggang makarating sila sa bayan ng Bethlehem. Nangyari ito nang dumating sila sa Bethlehem, ang buong bayan ay sobrang nagulat tungkol sa kanila. Sinabi ng mga kababaihan, “Ito ba si Naomi?”
And they went both of them until they came to Bethleem: and it came to pass, when they arrived at Bethleem, that all the city rang with them, and they said, Is this Noemin?
20 Pero sinabi niya sa kanila, “Huwag ako tawaging Naomi. Tawagin akong Maramdamin, dahil ang Maykapal ay sobrang nagdaramdam sa akin.
And she said to them, Nay, do not call me Noemin; call me 'Bitter,' for the Mighty One has dealt very bitterly with me.
21 Lumabas akong puno pero muli akong ibinalik ni Yahweh sa bahay ng walang dala. Kaya bakit tinatawag ninyo akong Naomi, nakikitang hinatulan ako ni Yahweh, na pinahirapan ako ng Maykapal?”
I went out full, and the Lord has brought me back empty: and why call you me Noemin, whereas the Lord has humbled me and the Mighty One has afflicted me?
22 Kaya sina Naomi at Ruth na Moabita, na kaniyang manugang, ay bumalik mula sa bansa ng Moab. Dumating sila sa Bethlehem sa simula ng pag-aani ng sebada.
So Noemin and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, returned from the country of Moab; and they came to Bethleem in the beginning of barley harvest.
