Ruth 3
1 Hitichun nikhat Naomi in Ruth kom’a chun, “Kachanu keiman na-inchen theina ding ngaito peh leng hichu nang dinga phalou ding ham?
But afterwards, when she returned to her mother-in-law, Naomi said to her: “My daughter, I will seek rest for you, and I will provide so that it may be well with you.
2 Boaz hi eini dinga i-kinai pi pen i-inko’u khat ahi, chule khotona neitah anungah goihotoh natoh khomsah jing ahi. Tujan’a hi aman achangphol’a sakol chang aden ahi.
This Boaz, whose young women you joined in the field, is our near relative, and this night he will winnow the threshing floor of barley.
3 Hijeh chun kasei bang bang hin bollin, “Kisiltheng sel inlang thao kinunlang navon hoipen kivon inlang, achangvohna pholla chun gachesuh’in ahinla aneh’a adonchai tokah’in Boaz chu kimusah hih in.
Therefore, wash and anoint yourself, and put on your decorative garments, and go down to the threshing floor, but do not let the man see you, while he finishes eating and drinking.
4 Alup tengleh alupna mun chu melchih’in, chuteng chenlang akengphang chu hohdoh inlang hilai mun’ah chun lum in. Hiteng chuleh aman nabolding nahin seipih tante,” ati.
But when he goes to sleep, observe the place where he sleeps. And you will approach and lift up the covering, the part which covers near his feet, and lay yourself down, and sleep there; but he will tell you what you are obliged to do.”
5 Ruth nin adonbutin, “Bollin nati tichu kabol jeng ding ahi,” ati.
She answered, “I will do everything as you have instructed.”
6 Hiche jan chun amanu jong achesuh in atehpi’n bol ding’a aseipeh jouse chu aboltan ahi.
And she went down to the threshing floor, and she did everything that her mother-in-law had commanded her.
7 Boaz chun aneh’a adonjouva chuleh lungkipah tah a aum jouvin Boaz chu achang kiset vum’na pang’a chun agalumtan ahi. Hichun Ruth jong kangchan hung vahlut’in, akengphang teni ahohdoh in alumtai.
And when Boaz had finished eating and drinking, and he was merry, and he had gone to sleep by the pile of sheaves, she approached secretly, and, lifting the covering near his feet, she laid herself down.
8 Jan khangkim donnin Boaz chu ahung kin khang in, agah kihei leh akengphang kom’a numei khat analup chu amudoh tan ahi.
And behold, when it was the middle of the night, the man became frightened and confused, and he saw a woman lying near his feet.
9 Hichun aman jong “Koi nahim?” tia adohleh, numeinu chun ahin donbut’in “Keima nasohnu Ruth kahi, naponchu keijong neihin silpehin ajeh chu nangma hi insungmi kinaipi penchu nahi,” ati.
And he said to her, “Who are you?” And she answered, “I am Ruth, your handmaid. Spread your covering over your servant, for you are a near relative.”
10 Hichun Boaz injong aseijin, “Kachanu Pakaiyin phatthei naboh hen, nangman natoh masat thilpha sanga jong tuahi aphacheh nabol kit ahitai, hao-hen vaijongleh gollhang hojoh hol louva umah nahi.
And he said, “You are blessed by the Lord, daughter, and you have excelled beyond your earlier benevolence, because you have not followed young men, whether poor or rich.
11 Chuti ahile, tun kachanu lungkham hih in keiman boldinga lom hochu hinbol nange, ajeh chu hiche khopi sunga mijouse hin nangma hi numei phachomtah nahi ahetsoh keiyu ahi.
Therefore, do not be afraid, but whatever you decide about me, I will accomplish for you. For all the people, who dwell within the gates of my city, know that you are a virtuous woman.
12 Keima hi nakinaipi insungmi chu kahinai ahinla keisanga nakinaipi khat aum nalai in ahi.
Neither do I deny myself to be a near relative, but there is another nearer than I.
13 Tujan gehkhovah den inlang, jingkah teng amachun phung kinaipi toh dingdol akin nabolpeh leh apha ahijinge, ahinlah aman hichu abol nomlouva ahileh hingjing Pakai minna kasei ahi, keiman nabolpeh nang nge, tun jingkah geijin umtan,” ati.
Be at peace for this night. And when morning arrives, if he is willing to uphold the law of kinship for you, things will turn out well; but if he is not willing, then, I will take you, without any doubt, as the Lord lives. Sleep until morning.”
14 Hitichun Ruth jong Boaz kengphangbulla chun jingkah geijin alum’in, ahin jingkah lang kungbul le mi kimah donin athoudohin, Boaz in, “Hiche changvohna pholla hin numei aumme ti koimachan hetda hen,” ati
And so she slept by his feet until the night was ending. And she arose before men could inquire of one another. And Boaz said, “Be careful, lest someone know that you came here.”
15 Hichejou chun Boaz in amanu koma chun, “Napon chu hin phan” atin sakol chang chu atena dim gup jen asempeh in akiputsah tai, hitichun khopi sunglang’a chun achetan ahi.
And again he said, “Spread your mantle that covers you, and hold it with both hands.” As she extended it and held it, he measured six measures of barley and placed it upon her. Carrying it, she went into the city.
16 Ruth chu atehpi kom alhun phat’in Naomi’n, “Ipi toh nagabah hinam?” atileh, Ruth chun Boaz in abolpeh hojouse chu aseipeh tan ahi.
And she came to her mother-in-law, who said to her: “What have you been doing, daughter?” And she explained to her all that the man had accomplished for her.
17 Chuleh Ruth chun aseiyin, “Natehpi komma sagoh keuva nakinung le louding ahi tin sakol chang atenadim gup eihin pohsah e,” ati.
And she said, “Behold, he gave me six measures of barley, for he said, ‘I am not willing to have you return empty to your mother-in-law.’”
18 Hichun Naomi’n amanu kommah, “Kanao Itobang thil hung sohdoh mong mong am ti ijah kahsen ngah hat’in, amapa chun tunia hi thilkhat atohlhah tokah a umthimlou helding ahi,” ati.
And Naomi said, “Wait, daughter, until we see how things will turn out. For the man will not rest until he has accomplished what he said.”
