< Ludi 3 >
1 Fifilai helele amola Na: ioumi ea Ludima amane sia: i, “Na da di gawa fima: ne hogomu galebe, be amo da di diasu ganoma: ne.
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?
2 Dawa: ma goe dunu Boua: se, amo ea fi uda di bisili hawa: hamonanu amo da ania sosogo fi. Waha di nabima! Wali daeya ea amola bali gadofo fane sosogamu.
And now [is] not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley to-night in the threshing-floor.
3 Amaiba: le, di da hano ulima. Amola dia abula noga: idafa salima. Amalu bali amola sosoga: ba amoga masa, be ahoasea dia da: i wamolegema. E da ha: i mai dagosea fawane, di ba: mu da defea.
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.
4 Be e dia ahoasea, defea di dawa: ma, e habi golabeyale, amola e sima midi galea, asili amola e dedeboi amo houga: le, ea emo gadenene diasa: ima. Ea da dima adole imunu, adi hamoma: ne.”
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.
5 Ludi da bu adole i, “Dia adi sia: sea, na da huluane hamomu.”
And she said to her, All that thou sayest to me I will do.
6 Amanoba, Ludi e bali gadofo sosoga: ba asili, esoa: ame ea ema sia: i amo defele hamoi.
And she went down to the floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law bade her.
7 Be Boua: se e ha: i amola hano nanu ba: loba, e hahawane ba: i. E da bali dabole ligisila asili gola midi. Ludi e da gebewane misini abula ea emoga sosoi amo houga: le, ea emo osa: suha golai.
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.
8 Be gasia Boua: se da fofogadigili wa: legadole amola delegili ba: loba, uda a: fini ea emo gadenene. dia misi dialebe ba: i.
And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was afraid, and turned himself: and behold, a woman lay at his feet.
9 “Di nowala: ?” e amane adole ba: i. Ludi da bu adole i, “Amo da na, Ludi, dia hawa: hamosu a: fini. Dia abula fe bidiga amo na da: i dedeboma. Bai di da dia fi gaga: su dunu galebe. Amola dafawane dia na lama.”
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.
10 Boua: se da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da di hahawane dogolegele fidimu da defea. Hou waha dia hamoi amo da dia musa: disoa: ema hamoi baligi dagoi. Di da goi ayeligi gasa bagade gagui o hame gagui esala, amo hogomu logo gala, be di da hame hogoi.
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.
11 Dunu fi huluane di dawa: , di da uda defeadafa. Amaiba: le mae beda: ma! Amo na dia adi liligi nama adi adole ba: sea na digili imunu.
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.
12 Dia dafawane sia: sa, na da dia sosogo fi afadafa amola na di ouligimu. Be dunu afadafa amo da Ilimelege ea liligi lamusa: sosogo fi amoga gala.
And now it is true that I [am thy] near kinsman: yet there is a kinsman nearer than I.
13 Waha di gui esaloma, amola aya hahabe na asili amo dunu ea hanai hou amo ba: la masunu. Be e di ouligimu sia: sea, defea! Be ea di higasea, na di ba: la misunu. Na sia: goe da dafawane. Hina Gode Bagade E da dawa: Amola waha da di golale, hadigimu.”
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.
14 Amanoba, Ludi e Boua: se ea emo gadenene golai. Hame hadigia, Ludi wa: legadole asi amo dunu ilia hame ba: i. Bai Boua: se da Ludi da gasia ea emo gadenene golai dialu, dunu eno dawa: mu e higa: i galu.
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.
15 Amanoba, Boua: se e Ludi ema amane adoi, “Dia abula lale fa: si, fadegale gama.” Amabeba: le, ea abula amo fa: si, amola Boua: se ea bali amo abula da: iya gugudili ligisi. Amola ea dioi defei amo 20 gilogala: me agoane galu. Amanoba, Boua: se ea Ludi e fidili ea gida da: iya gisasi. Amalu Ludi da ea moilaiga buhagi.
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.
16 E diasuga doaga: loba, esoa: eme da ema naba ba: i, “Nadiwi! Dia da habodane hamobela: ?” Ludi e da Boua: se ea ema fidi hou amo olelei.
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.
17 E bu sia: i, “Ea amola nama amane sia: i, na da udigili dima bu masunu da hame galebe. Amanoba, e da amo bali ha: i manu nama i.”
And she said, These six [measures] of barley he gave me; for he said to me, Go not empty to thy mother-in-law.
18 Na: ioumi da ema amane sia: i, “Di waha ouligima, Ludi! Goe hahamobe ba: ma. Boua: se e da hamedafa yolemu sia: i. E da amo hou huluane hahamone dagomu.”
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.
