< Rut 3 >
1 Bir gün qayınanası Naomi Ruta dedi: «Qızım, sənin ailə xoşbəxtliyin üçün rahat bir yer axtarmayımmı?
One day, Naomi said to Ruth, “My daughter, I think that I should [RHQ] try to arrange for you to have a husband [MTY] who will (take care of/provide for) you.
2 Bax qulluqçu qızları ilə sahəsində işlədiyin Boaz bizim qohumumuzdur. O bu gecə xırmanda arpa sovurur.
Boaz, the man with whose [servant] girls you have been [gathering grain], is a close relative [of our dead husbands]. Listen [carefully]. Tonight he will be at the ground where [the barley has] been threshed. He will be separating the barley grain from the chaff.
3 Sən də yuyun, ətirlən və ən gözəl paltarını geyinib xırmana en. Amma o yeyib-içməyini qurtarmayınca özünü ona göstərmə.
Bathe yourself and put on some perfume. Put on your [best] clothes. Then go down to the ground where they have threshed [the grain]. But do not let Boaz know that you are there while he is eating [supper] and drinking.
4 Elə ki yatmağa getdi, yerini tapıb onun ayaqlarının üstünü açaraq ayaq tərəfində yatarsan. Sonra nə etmək lazımdırsa, o özü sənə deyəcək».
[When he has finished eating], notice where he lies down to sleep. Then [when he is asleep], take the blanket off his feet and lie [close to his feet]. [When he wakes up], he will tell you what to do.”
5 Rut ona «dediklərinin hamısına əməl edərəm» dedi.
Ruth replied, “I will do everything that you have told me [to do].”
6 Rut xırmana endi və qayınanasının bütün tapşırıqlarına əməl etdi.
So she went down to the ground where they had threshed [the barley grain]. There she did everything that her mother-in-law had told her [to do].
7 Boaz yeyib-içib kefi kökələndən sonra yatmaq üçün məhsul tayasının kənarına getdi. Rut da sakitcə gəldi və ayaqlarının üstünü açıb ayaq tərəfində uzandı.
When Boaz finished eating [supper] and drinking [wine], he felt happy. Then he went over to the far end of the pile of grain. He lay down [and went to sleep]. Then Ruth approached him quietly. She took the blanket off his feet and lay down [there].
8 Gecə yarısı birdən Boaz səksəndi və çevrilib baxanda gördü ki, ayaqlarının yanında bir qadın uzanıb.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly awoke. He sat up and saw that a woman was lying at his feet.
9 O, qadına dedi: «Sən kimsən?» Qadın cavab verdi: «Mən qarabaşın Rutam. Ətəyinlə bu qarabaşının da üstünü ört, çünki sən qəyyumumsan».
He asked her, “Who are you?” She replied, “I am your servant, Ruth. Since you are the one who has a responsibility to take care of [someone like me whose dead husband was] your close relative, spread the corner of your cloak over my [feet to show that you will marry me].”
10 Boaz dedi: «Qoy Rəbb sənə xeyir-dua versin, qızım! Sonuncu xeyirxahlığın əvvəlkindən də yaxşıdır. Çünki nə kasıb, nə də varlı bir cavanın ardınca düşdün.
Boaz replied, “Young lady, I hope that Yahweh will (bless/be kind to) you! You have acted kindly [toward your mother-in-law], and now you are acting even more kindly [toward me by wanting to marry me, instead of wanting to marry a young man]. You have not looked for either a rich young man or a poor young man, [to marry him].
11 Qızım, daha qorxma! Dediyin hər şeyi sənin üçün edəcəyəm. Şəhərimizin bütün əhalisi yaxşı bilir ki, sən xeyirxah qadınsan.
Now, young lady, I will do everything you ask. Don’t worry [that people in this town might think I am doing wrong by marrying you because you are a woman from Moab]. All the people in this town know that you are an honorable woman.
12 Düzdür, sənin qəyyumun mənəm, amma məndən də yaxın qəyyumun var.
But [there is one problem]. Although it is true that I am a close relative [of your mother-in-law’s dead husband], there is another man who is a closer relative [than I am], and therefore he should be the one to [marry you and] take care of you.
13 Bu gecəni qal, sabah əgər o adam sənə qəyyum olmaq istəsə, çox yaxşı, qoy olsun. Yox, əgər bundan imtina etsə, var olan Rəbb haqqı, sənin qəyyumun mən özüm olacağam. Hələlik sabaha qədər yat».
You stay here for the rest of this night. Tomorrow morning [I will tell this man about you]. If he says that he will [marry you and] take care of you, fine, [we will] let him do that. But if he is not willing [to do that], I solemnly promise that as surely as Yahweh lives, I will [marry you and] take care of you. So lie/sleep here until it is morning.”
14 Rut onun ayaqlarının yanında sübhədək yatdı və səhərin alaqaranlığında – hələ gözün yaxşı seçmədiyi vaxtda ayağa qalxdı, çünki Boaz demişdi: «Qoy heç kəs bilməsin ki, xırmana bu qadın gəlib».
So she lay at his feet until morning. But she got up and left before it was light enough that people would be able to recognize her, because Boaz said, “I do not want anyone to know that a woman was here.”
15 Sonra Boaz Ruta dedi: «Üst örtüyünü götür, burada tut». Rut örtüyünü götürüb kənarından tutdu. Boaz altı ölçü arpanı örtüyün üstünə töküb ona verdi. Rut şəhərə qayıtdı.
He also said to her, “Bring to me your cloak and spread it out.” When she did that, he poured into it six measures/24 liters/50 pounds of barley, and put in on her back. Then he (OR, she) went back to the town.
16 O, qayınanasının yanına gələndə qayınanası ona dedi: «Necə oldu, qızım?» Rut Boazla olan hər şeyi Naomiyə danışdı,
When Ruth arrived home, her mother-in-law asked her, “My daughter, how did (things go/Boaz act toward you)?” Then Ruth told her everything that Boaz had done for her [and said to her].
17 sonra dedi: «O mənə altı ölçü arpa verib dedi ki, qayınananın yanına əliboş qayıtma».
She also said [to Naomi], “He gave me all this barley, saying ‘I do not want you to return to your mother-in-law empty-handed.’”
18 Naomi Ruta dedi: «Qızım, gözlə, gör bu işin sonu necə qurtarır, çünki o adam bu işi bu gün axıra çatdırmayınca sakit olmayacaq».
Then Naomi said, “My daughter, just wait until we see what happens. [I am sure that] Boaz will take care of [LIT] the matter [of your marriage]. [LIT]”
