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.
And it came to pass, in the days when the Judges administered justice, that there was a famine in the land, —and so a certain man went his way, out of Bethlehem-judah 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 out of Bethlehem-judah, —so they came into the country of Moab, and remained 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, husband of Naomi, died, —and she was left, she 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 dwelt 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, they also, both, died, Mahlon and Chilion, —so the woman was bereft of her two sons, and of 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, she and her daughters-in-law, and returned out of the country of Moab, —for she had heard, in the country of Moab, how that Yahweh had visited his people, in giving unto 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,
So she went forth out of the dwelling-place where she had remained, 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.
Then said Naomi to her two daughters-in-law: Go return, each one to the house of her mother, —Yahweh deal with you in lovingkindness, 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.
Yahweh grant you, that ye may find a place of rest, each one in the house of her husband, —And 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 to her, —With thee, will we return, 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?
Then said Naomi—Go back, my daughters! wherefore should ye journey with me? Have I, yet, sons in my womb, that they should become 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,
Go back, my daughters, go your way, for I am too old to have a husband, —If I should say, I have, hope, if I should, even to-night have a husband, and should, even 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, therefore, tarry until they were grown? would ye, therefore, shut yourselves up from having husbands? Nay! my daughters, for it is far more bitter for me than for you, that forth hath gone against me, the hand of Yahweh.
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, yet more. Then 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—Lo! thy sister-in-law hath gone back, unto her people, and unto her gods, —go thou back, 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—Do not urge me to leave thee, to go back from following 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, I will die, and, there, will I be buried: So, let Yahweh do to me, and, so, let him add, if, death itself, part me and thee.
18 Kad nu viņa redzēja, ka šī bija stipri apņēmusies, viņai iet līdzi, tad viņa mitējās to pārrunāt.
And, when she saw that, bravely determined, was she to go with her, she ceased entreating 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 their way, until they entered Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they entered Bethlehem, that all the city was moved concerning them, and the women 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, Do not call me Naomi ["Sweet"], —call me Mara ["Bitter"], 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 was full when I departed, but, empty, am I brought back of Yahweh, —wherefore should ye call me Naomi, when, Yahweh, hath given answer against me, and, the Almighty, hath crushed 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, who returned out of the country of Moab, —and, they, entered Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
