1 盧德的婆婆納敖米向她說:「我女,難道我不應為你找個安身之處,使你幸福嗎﹖
Pea pehē ʻe Naomi ko ʻene faʻē ʻi he fono kiate ia, “ʻA ʻeku tama, ʻikai ʻoku lelei ʻeku kumi ʻae fiemālie kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke lelei ai kiate koe?
2 如今你同他的使女常在一起的波阿次,不是我們的親人嗎﹖看,他今夜要在禾場上簸大麥,
Pea ko eni, ʻikai ko hota kāinga ʻa Poasi, ʻae kau kaunanga ʻoʻona naʻa ke ʻi ai? Vakai, ʻoku tapili paʻale ʻe ia he poōni ʻi he potu hahaʻanga.
3 你去沐浴,抹油,披上你的外衣下,到禾場上去,但不要使那人認出你來,直等他吃喝完了,
Ko ia ke ke kaukauʻi koe, pea ke tākai koe, pea ʻai ho ngaahi kofu kiate koe, pea ke ʻalu hifo ki he potu hahaʻanga: kaeʻoua naʻa ke fakahā atu koe ki he tangata, kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻene kai mo inu.
4 到他睡覺的時候,你要看清他睡覺的地方;然後就去掀開他腳上的外衣,,我必依照遵行。」
Pea ka tokoto hifo ia, pea ʻe pehē, Ke ke vakai ki he potu ʻaia ʻoku tokoto ai ia, pea ke ʻalu ki ai, pea toʻo ʻae kafu mei hono vaʻe, pea ke tokoto hifo; pea ʻe fakahā ʻe ia kiate koe ʻaia te ke fai.”
5 盧德回答她說:「你所囑咐我的,我必依照遵行。」
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke tala kiate au te u fai ia.”
6 她便下到禾場上,作了她婆婆所吩咐她的事。盧德夜訪波阿次
Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia ki he potu hahaʻanga, pea ne fai ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono kiate ia.
7 波阿次吃了喝了,心中暢快,就走到麥堆旁躺下了。盧德暗暗地去掀開了他腳上的外衣,躺臥自那裏。
Pea hili ʻae kai mo inu ʻa Poasi, pea kuo fiemālie lahi hono loto, naʻe ʻalu ia ke tokoto ʻi hono potu ʻoe fokotuʻunga uite: pea haʻu fakaʻeteʻete pe ia, pea toʻo ʻae kafu mei hono vaʻe, pea tokoto hifo ia,
8 到了半夜,那人驚起,往前屈身一看,見一個女人睡在他的腳旁,
Pea hoko ʻo tuʻuapō, pea pehē, Kuo manavahē ʻae tangata, pea tafoki ʻe ia ia, pea vakai, ʻoku tokoto ha fefine ki hono vaʻe.
9 便問說:「你是誰」她答說:「我是你的婢女盧德,請你伸開你的衣襟,覆在你婢女身上罷! 因為你是我的至親。」
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hai koe?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au Lute ko hoʻo kaunanga ko ia ke ke ʻai ho kafu ki hoʻo kaunanga he ko e kāinga ofi koe.”
10 波阿次說:「我女,願你蒙上主的祝福! 你行的仁愛,後者實勝於前者,以致貧富的少年,你都沒有跟隨
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻofefine, Ke monūʻia koe ʻia Sihova: he kuo ke fakahā ʻae angaʻofa lahi ʻi he kimui ʻi he kamataʻanga, ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai te ke muimui ʻi he kau talavou, pē ko ha masiva pē ko e maʻumeʻa.
11 我女,如今你不必害怕,凡你同我所說的,我都願為你做到,因為我本城的人,都知道你是一位賢德的婦女
Pea ko eni, ʻE hoku ʻofefine, ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē; te u fai kiate koe ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ke tokanga ki ai: he ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻo hoku matapā ko e fefine angalelei koe.
12 的確,我是你的至親,不過還有一位至親,比我更近。
Pea ko eni, ko e moʻoni ko ho kāinga ofi au: ka ʻoku ai ha kāinga ʻe taha ʻoku ofi lahi ʻiate au.
13 今夜你在這裏過夜,明早若他願意對你盡至親的義務,就由他盡好了! 如果他不願意,──上主永在! 我必對你盡至親的義務。你儘管睡到天明。盧德回報婆母
Tatali he poōni, pea ʻe pehē ʻi he ʻapongipongi, kapau te ne fai kiate koe ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga, ʻoku lelei; tuku ia ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai fai ʻe ia ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga kiate koe, pea te u fai ʻeau ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga kiate koe; ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova: tokoto hifo ke ʻoua ke pongipongi.”
14 她就在他的腳旁睡到天明。在人能彼此辨別以前,她就起來了;波阿次心想:「不要叫人知道有婦女來過場上。」
Pea naʻe tokoto ia ki hono vaʻe ke ʻoua ke pongipongi: pea tuʻu hake ia ʻi he taʻefaʻaʻilo ʻe ha taha ha taha. Pea pehē ʻe ia, Ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo naʻe haʻu ha fefine ki he potu hahaʻanga.
15 於是他說:「伸開你所披的外衣,雙手拿住! 」她就拿著,波阿次量了六斗大麥穗給她,放在她肩上;她就背著回城去了。
Pea pehē ʻe ia foki, “ʻOmi kiate au ʻa ho kafu ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate koe, pea ke fakatali ia.” Pea ʻi heʻene fakatali ia, naʻa ne lingi ki ai ʻae fua paʻale ʻe ono, ʻo ne hilifaki ia kiate ia: pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki he kolo.
16 到了婆婆那裏,婆婆就問她說:「我女,事情怎樣﹖」盧德就向她述說了那人對她所作的一切;
Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hai koe, ʻeku tama? Pea naʻa ne tala kiate ia ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe he tangata kiate ia.”
17 並說:「他還給了我這六斗大麥,因為他向我說:你不要空手回去見你的婆婆。」
Pea pehē ʻe ia, naʻa ne tuku kiate au ʻae fua paʻale ʻe ono ni; he naʻa ne pehē kiate au, ʻoua naʻa ke ʻalu ngeʻesi pē ki hoʻo faʻē ʻi he fono.
18 納敖米就說:「我女,你等著罷! 看這事有什麼結果;因為這人除非今日把這事辦成,必不安心。」
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko ʻeku tama, ke ke nofo fiemālie pē, ke ʻoua ke ke ʻilo pe ngata fēfē ʻae meʻa ni: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai nofo noa pē ʻae tangata, kaeʻoua ke ne fakaʻosi ʻae meʻa ni he ʻaho ni.”
