Ruth 1
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1AND IT came to pass in the days when the judges judged, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Beth-lehem in Judah went to sojourn in the field of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
1In pacl ma mwet nununku tuh kol fin acn Israel, oasr sie sracl lulap sikyak. Ouinge, sie mwet Bethlehem in acn Judah, wi mutan kial ac wen luo natul, elos som nu Moab in tuh muta we kitin pacl.
2And 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 in Judah. And they came into the field of Moab, and continued there.
2Inen mukul sac pa Elimelech, mutan kial pa Naomi, ac inen wen luo natul ah pa Mahlon ac Chilion. Elos mwet Ephrath, ac elos muta in acn Bethlehem lun Judah. Na elos som nu Moab in tuh muta we. Ke elos muta we
3And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
3Elimelech el misa, ac Naomi ac wen luo natul ah mukena muta.
4And 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.
4Tok, eltal payukyak sin mutan Moab luo — sie pa Orpah ac sie pa Ruth. Elos muta we apkuran in yac singoul,
5And Mahlon and Chilion died both of them; and the woman was left of her two children and of her husband.
5na Mahlon ac Chilion kewa misa pac, ac Naomi el mukelana muta. Wanginla mukul tumal ac wen luo natul ah.
6Then she arose with her daughters-in-law, that she might return from the field of Moab; for she had heard in the field of Moab how that the LORD had remembered His people in giving them bread.
6Kutu pacl tok, Naomi el lohngak lah LEUM GOD El kasru mwet in acn sel ke El akwoye fokin ima lalos ac sang mwe mongo nu selos. Na Naomi ac mutan luo talupal ah akola in som liki acn Moab,
7And 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.
7ac mutawauk in fahsr nu Judah.
8And Naomi said unto her two daughters-in-law: 'Go, return each of you to her mother's house; the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
8Naomi el fahk nu sin mutan luo natul ah, “Wona komtal in folokla nu yurin nina kiomtal ah, ac lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan kulang nu sumtal oana ke komtal tuh kulang nu sik ac nu sin mukul tomomtal ma misa.
9The 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.
9Lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan kasrekomtal in ku in konauk luo mukul ah tomomtal komtal in muta wo yoro.” Na Naomi el wilkas ac ngok mutaltal. Tusruktu eltal mutawauk in tung
10And they said unto her: 'Nay, but we will return with thee unto thy people.'
10ac fahk, “Mo! Kut ac wi kom na som nu yurin mwet lom an.”
11And Naomi said: 'Turn back, my daughters; why will ye go with me? have I yet sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
11Na Naomi el fahk nu seltal, “Komtal enenu in folokot. Efu komtal ku lungse wiyu? Mea, komtal nunku mu nga ac ku in sifil oswela tulik mukul komtal in payuk nu se?
12Turn back, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say: I have hope, should I even have an husband to-night, and also bear sons;
12Folokot nu yen sumtal an mweyen nga matuoh ac nga tia ku in sifil payuk. Nga finne nunkauk mu nga in sifil payukyak ofong ac oswela kutu wen,
13would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye shut yourselves off for them and have no husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes, for the hand of the LORD is gone forth against me.'
13mea, komtal ac soano na eltal in matula? Ya sripa se inge in pwanang komtal in tia payuk nu sin kutepacna mukul? Mo, acn nutik, komtal etu na lah tia ku in ouinge. LEUM GOD El ngetla likiyu, ac nga arulana pakomutomtal.”
14And they lifted up their voice, and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law; but Ruth cleaved unto her.
14Ac eltal sifilpa mutawauk in tung. Na Orpah el ngokya mutun nina sac, ac folokla nu yen sel ah, a Ruth el sripsriplana nu sin nina sac ac tiana fahsr lukel.
15And she said: 'Behold, thy sister-in-law is gone back unto her people, and unto her god; return thou after thy sister-in-law.'
15Na Naomi el fahk nu sel, “Ruth, mutan se wiom ah pa folokla nu yurin mwet lal ac god lal. Fahla welul.”
16And Ruth said: 'Entreat me not to leave thee, and 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;
16Tusruktu Ruth el fahk, “Nimet kom kafwe nga in som liki kom! Lela nga in wi kom na. Tuh yen kom som nu we, nga fah som pac nu we. Yen kom ac muta we, nga ac fah muta pac we. Mwet lom fah mwet luk, ac God lom fah God luk.
17where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried; the LORD do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.'
17Yen kom misa we, nga ac fah misa we, ac nga ac fah pukpuki pac we. Lela LEUM GOD Elan arulana ase mwe keok yohk nu fuk nga fin fahsr liki kom meet liki nga misa!”
18And when she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her, she left off speaking unto her.
18Ke Naomi el akilen lah Ruth el wotela na ku sel mu el ac welul ah, el tia sifilpa fahk kutena ma.
19So 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 astir concerning them, and the women said: 'Is this Naomi?'
19Eltal fahsr nwe ke na eltal sun acn Bethlehem. Ke eltal sun acn we, mwet in acn sac elos arulana lut, ac kutu sin mutan in acn sac fahk ouinge, “Ku pwayena lah Naomi pa inge?”
20And she said unto them: 'Call me not Naomi, call me Marah; for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.
20Na Naomi el fahk nu selos, “Kowos in tia sifil pangonyu Naomi, a kowos in pangonyu Marah mweyen LEUM GOD El ase sie moul na asor nu sik.
21I went out full, and the LORD hath brought me back home empty; why call ye me Naomi, seeing the LORD hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath afflicted me?'
21Ke nga tuh som liki acn yenu ah, pukanten ma luk, tuh pa LEUM GOD El folokinyume pisinpo. Mwe mea kowos in pangonyu Naomi ke LEUM GOD Kulana El akkeokyeyu ac supwama mwe ongoiya nu fuk?”
22So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the field of Moab — and they came to Beth-lehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
22Ouinge Naomi el foloko liki acn Moab, ac Ruth, mutan Moab se talupal welul. Ke eltal sun acn Bethlehem, tufahna mutawauk pacl in kosrani barley in acn we.
