راعُوث 3
| وَذَاتَ يَوْمٍ قَالَتْ نُعْمِي لِكَنَّتِهَا رَاعُوثَ: «هَلْ أُحَاوِلُ أَنْ أَجِدَ لَكِ زَوْجاً يَرْعَاكِ فَتَنْعَمِي بِالْخَيْرِ؟ | ١ 1 |
Then Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?
| أَلَيْسَ بُوعَزُ الَّذِي عَمِلْتِ مَعْ فَتَيَاتِهِ قَرِيباً لَنَا؟ هَا هُوَ يُذَرِّي بَيْدَرَ الشَّعِيرِ اللَّيْلَةَ، | ٢ 2 |
And now [is] not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley to-night in the threshing-floor.
| فَاغْتَسِلِي وَتَطَيَّبِي وَارْتَدِي أَجْمَلَ ثِيَابِكِ وَاذْهَبِي إِلَى الْبَيْدَرِ، وَلا تَدَعِي الرَّجُلَ يَكْتَشِفُ وُجُودَكِ حَتَّى يَفْرَغَ مِنَ الأَكْلِ وَالشُّرْبِ. | ٣ 3 |
Wash thyself therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment upon thee, and go down to the floor: [but] make not thyself known to the man, until he shall have done eating and drinking.
| وَعِنْدَمَا يَضْطَجِعُ عَايِنِي مَوْضِعَ اضْطِجَاعِهِ، ثُمَّ ادْخُلِي إِلَيْهِ وَارْفَعِي الْغِطَاءَ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْهِ وَارْقُدِي هُنَاكَ، وَهُوَ يُطْلِعُكِ عَمَّا تَفْعَلِينَ». | ٤ 4 |
And it shall be when he lieth down, that thou shalt mark the place where he shall lie, and thou shalt go in, and uncover his feet, and lay thee down; and he will tell thee what thou shalt do.
| فَأَجَابَتْهَا: «سَأَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَا تَقُولِينَ». | ٥ 5 |
And she said to her, All that thou sayest to me I will do.
| وَتَوَجَّهَتْ رَاعُوثُ إِلَى الْبَيْدَرِ وَنَفَّذَتْ مَا أَشَارَتْ بِهِ عَلَيْهَا حَمَاتُهَا. | ٦ 6 |
And she went down to the floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law bade her.
| فَبَعْدَ أَنْ أَكَلَ بُوعَزُ وَشَرِبَ وَطَابَتْ نَفْسُهُ وَمَضَى لِيَرْقُدَ عِنْدَ الطَّرَفِ الْقَصِيِّ مِنْ كُومَةِ الشَّعِيرِ، تَسَلَّلَتْ رَاعُوثُ وَرَفَعَتِ الْغِطَاءَ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْهِ وَنَامَتْ. | ٧ 7 |
And when Boaz had eaten and drank, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of corn: and she came softly, and uncovered his feet, and laid herself down.
| وَعِنْدَ مُنْتَصَفِ اللَّيْلِ تَقَلَّبَ الرَّجُلُ فِي نَوْمِهِ مُضْطَرِباً، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظَ وَالْتَفَتَ حَوْلَهُ وَإذَا بِهِ يَجِدُ امْرَأَةً رَاقِدَةً عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْهِ، | ٨ 8 |
And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was afraid, and turned himself: and behold, a woman lay at his feet.
| فَتَسَاءَلَ: «مَنْ أَنْتِ؟» فَأَجَابَتْ: «أَنَا رَاعُوثُ أَمَتُكَ، فَابْسُطْ هُدْبَ ثَوْبِكَ عَلَى أَمَتِكَ لأَنَّكَ قَرِيبٌ وَوَلِيٌّ». | ٩ 9 |
And he said, Who [art] thou? And she answered, I [am] Ruth thy handmaid: spread therefore thy skirt over thy handmaid; for thou [art] a near kinsman.
| فَقَالَ: «لِيُبَارِكْكِ الرَّبُّ يَا ابْنَتِي لأَنَّ مَا أَظْهَرْتِهِ مِنْ إِحْسَانٍ الآنَ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِمَّا أَظْهَرْتِهِ سَابِقاً، فَأَنْتِ لَمْ تَتَهَافَتِي عَلَى الشُّبَّانِ، فُقَرَاءَ كَانُوا أَوْ أَغْنِيَاءَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And he said, Blessed [be] thou of the LORD, my daughter: [for] thou hast shown more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, inasmuch as thou didst not follow young men, whether poor or rich.
| وَالآنَ لَا تَخَافِي يَا ابْنَتِي، سَأَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَا تَطْلُبِينَ، فَأَهْلُ مَدِينَتِي كُلُّهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّكِ امْرَأَةٌ فَاضِلَةٌ. | ١١ 11 |
And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest: for all the city of my people doth know that thou [art] a virtuous woman.
| صَحِيحٌ أَنَّنِي قَرِيبٌ وَلِيٌّ، وَلَكِنْ هُنَاكَ مَنْ هُوَ وَلِيٌّ أَقْرَبُ مِنِّي. | ١٢ 12 |
And now it is true that I [am thy] near kinsman: yet there is a kinsman nearer than I.
| نَامِي اللَّيْلَةَ، وَفِي الصَّبَاحِ إِنْ قَامَ ذَلِكَ الْقَرِيبُ الأَوْلَى بِحَقِّ الْوَلِيِّ وَتَزَوَّجَكِ، فَحَسَناً يَفْعَلُ. وَإِنْ أَبَى قَضَاءَ وَاجِبِ الْوَلِيِّ، فَأُقْسِمُ بِالرَّبِّ الْحَيِّ أَنْ أَتَزَوَّجَكِ، فَارْقُدِي الآنَ إِلَى الصَّبَاحِ». | ١٣ 13 |
Tarry this night, and it shall be in the morning, [that] if he will perform to thee the part of a kinsman, well; let him do the kinsman's part: but if he will not do the part of a kinsman to thee, then will I do the part of a kinsman to thee, [as] the LORD liveth: lie down until the morning.
| فَنَامَتْ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْهِ حَتَّى الصَّبَاحِ، ثُمَّ نَهَضَتْ مُبَكِّرَةً جِدّاً فِي وَقْتٍ لَا يَتَمَكَّنُ الْمَرْءُ فِيهِ مِنْ تَمْيِيزِ صَاحِبِهِ، وَقَالَ لَهَا: «لا تُخْبِرِي أَحَداً أَنَّكِ جِئْتِ إِلَى الْبَيْدَرِ». | ١٤ 14 |
And she lay at his feet until the morning: and she rose before one could know another. And he said, Let it not be known that a woman came to the floor.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا أَيْضاً: «هَاتِ الرِّدَاءَ الَّذِي عَلَيْكِ وَأَمْسِكِيهِ» فَفَعَلَتْ، فَكَالَ لَهَا سِتَّةَ أَكْيَالٍ مِنَ الشَّعِيرِ (نَحْوَ سِتَّةٍ وَثَلاثِينَ لِتْراً) وَحَمَّلَهَا إِيَّاهَا، ثُمَّ دَخَلَتْ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Also he said, Bring the vail that [thou hast] upon thee, and hold it. And when she held it, he measured six [measures] of barley, and laid [it] on her: and she went into the city.
| فَأَقْبَلَتْ عَلَى حَمَاتِهَا، فَسَأَلَتْهَا: «مَاذَا حَدَثَ يَا ابْنَتِي؟» فَقَصَّتْ عَلَيْهَا كُلَّ مَا صَنَعَهُ الرَّجُلُ لَهَا. | ١٦ 16 |
And when she came to her mother-in-law, she said, Who [art] thou, my daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.
| وَقَالَتْ: «وَقَدْ أَعْطَانِي سِتَّةَ أَكْيَالٍ مِنَ الشَّعِيرِ قَائِلاً:’لا تَرْجِعِي فَارِغَةَ الْيَدَيْنِ إِلَى حَمَاتِكِ‘». | ١٧ 17 |
And she said, These six [measures] of barley he gave me; for he said to me, Go not empty to thy mother-in-law.
| فَقَالَتْ لَهَا نُعْمِي: «انْتَظِرِي يَا بِنْتِي رَيْثَمَا نَتَبَيَّنَ نَتِيجَةَ الأَمْرِ، لأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَنْ يَقِرَّ لَهُ قَرَارٌ حَتَّى يُنْهِيَ الأَمْرَ كُلَّهُ الْيَوْمَ». | ١٨ 18 |
Then said she, Sit still, my daughter, until thou knowest how the matter will fall: for the man will not be in rest, until he hath finished the thing this day.
