路得記 4
1 波阿次走上城門口，坐在那裏。可巧，波阿次所說的那位至親，正從那裏經過，他就對他說：「某兄，請過來，坐一坐! 」他就過去坐下了。
Naʻe toki ʻalu hake ai ʻa Poasi ki he matapā, pea nofo ki lalo ia ʻi ai: pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu ange ʻae kāinga ʻaia naʻe lea ki ai ʻa Poasi; ʻaia naʻe pehē ki ai ia, “ʻE, ʻa koe, tafoki mai, pea nofo ki lalo ʻi heni.” Pea naʻe tafoki ia, ʻo nofo ki lalo.
2 波阿次又由城內的長老中，邀請了十位，對他們說：「請你們在這裏坐一坐! 」他們就都坐下。
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu ko e kau mātuʻa ʻoe kolo, ʻo ne pehē, “Mou nofo ki lalo ʻi heni.” Pea naʻa nau nofo ki lalo.
3 波阿次便對那位至親說：「從摩阿布鄉間回來的納敖米要賣我們兄弟厄里默肋客的一塊田。
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he kāinga, “Ko Naomi ʻaia kuo toe haʻu mei he fonua ko Moape, ʻoku fakatau ʻe ia ʻae konga fonua, ʻaia naʻe ʻia ʻElimeleki ko hotau tokoua.
4 我認為我應在你面前說明這事，並請你當著在坐的諸位及民眾的長老前，購買這塊地。若你願意盡你至親的義務，就盡；若你不願意盡，起告訴我知道；因為除你應盡這義務之外，沒有別人了；你以後就是我。」那人答說：「我盡。」
Pea ne u pehē, “Te u fakahā ia kiate koe, ʻo pehē, Ke ke fakatau ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau mātuʻa ʻo hoku kakai. Kapau te ke huhuʻi ia, pea ke huhuʻi ia: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke huhuʻi ia, pea ke fakahā kiate au, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo: he ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha kehe ke huhuʻi ia ka ko koe; pea ʻoku ou hoko mo koe.” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Te u huhuʻi ia.”
5 波阿次接著說：「你從納敖米手中購得田地的那一天，也應娶亡者之妻，即摩阿布女子盧德，好給死者在嗣業上留名。」
Pea pehē ai ʻe Poasi, “Ko e ʻaho ko ia ʻoku ke fakatau ʻae ngoue ʻi he nima ʻo Naomi, ʻoku totonu hoʻo fakatau ia ʻi he nima ʻo Lute foki ko e fefine Moape, ko e uaifi ʻoe pekia, ke fokotuʻu hake ʻae hingoa ʻoe pekia ki hono tofiʻa.
6 那位至親答說：「那麼我就不能盡這義務了，免得我的產業受害，你盡我應盡的義務罷! 我不能盡了。」
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kāinga, “ʻOku ʻikai te u faʻa huhuʻi ia moʻoku, telia naʻaku maumau ai ʻae tofiʻa ʻoʻoku: ke ke huhuʻi ʻaia ʻoku ʻoʻoku moʻou; he ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa huhuʻi ia.”
7 從前在以色列中間，無論對於買賣或交易，為確定一事，有這樣的一個風俗：就是一方應脫下自己的鞋，交與另一方：這在以色列就算為證據。
Pea ko eni hono anga ʻi muʻa ʻi ʻIsileli ʻoe huhuʻi, pea ki he fetongi, ke fakamoʻoni ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē; naʻe vete ʻe he tangata hono topuvaʻe, pea ʻatu ia ki hono kaungāʻapi: pea ko e meʻa fakamoʻoni ia ʻi ʻIsileli.
8 那為至親對波阿次說：「你購買罷! 」遂就脫下了自己的鞋。
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he kāinga kia Poasi, “Ke ke fakatau ia moʻou.” Ko ia naʻa ne vete ʻo toʻo hono topuvaʻe.
9 於是波阿次對長老以及所有在坐的民眾說：「今天你們作證，我從納敖米手中購得了屬於厄里默肋客及基肋雍與瑪赫隆的一切產業；
Pea pehē ʻe Poasi ki he kau mātuʻa, pea ki he kakai kotoa pē, “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimoutolu he ʻaho ni kuo u fakatau ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe ʻo ʻElimeleki, mo ia kotoa pē naʻe ʻo Kilioni mo Maloni, ʻi he nima ʻo Naomi.
10 同時我也取得了瑪赫隆的妻，摩阿布的女子盧德為我的妻室，好給死者在嗣業上留名，不叫死者的名字，在自己的兄弟和故鄉的門戶中失傳；今日你們為此作證! 」
Pea mo Lute foki ko e fefine Moape, ko e uaifi ʻo Maloni, kuo u fakatau ko hoku uaifi, ke fokotuʻu hake ʻae hingoa ʻoe pekia ki hono tofiʻa, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa motuhi ʻae hingoa ʻoe pekia mei hono kāinga, pea mei he matapā ʻo hono potu: ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimoutolu he ʻaho ni.”
11 在城門旁的民眾和長老都回答說：「我們作證。願上主使這走進你家中的婦女，像似那兩位曾建立了以色列家的辣黑耳和肋阿! 願你在厄弗辣大昌盛，願你在白冷得享盛名!
Pea naʻe lea ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he matapā, mo e kau mātuʻa, ʻo pehē, “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimautolu. Ke ngaohi ʻe Sihova ʻae fefine kuo haʻu ki ho fale ke hangē ko Lesieli mo Lia, ʻakinaua naʻa na langa ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli: pea ke tāpuekina koe ʻi ʻEfalata, pea ke ongolelei koe ʻi Petelihema:
12 願你的家藉上主使這少婦給你所生的後裔，相似塔瑪爾給猶大所生的培勒茲的家。」波阿次娶盧德
pea ke hoko ʻo tatau ho fale mo e fale ʻo Felesi, ʻaia naʻe fanauʻi ʻe Tema kia Siuta, ʻi he hako ʻaia ʻe tuku kiate koe ʻe Sihova ʻi he fefine mui ni.”
13 波阿次遂娶了盧德，她就成了他的妻子。他走近了他，上主賜她懷孕，生了一個兒子。
Ko ia naʻe ʻomi ʻe Poasi ʻa Lute, pea hoko ia ko hono uaifi: pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu kiate ia, naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe Sihova ke feitama, pea ne fanauʻi ʻae tama.
14 婦女們就對納敖米說：「願上主受頌揚! 因為他沒有使你今日缺乏承繼者。願他在以色列中得享盛名!
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau fefine kia Naomi, “Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai tuku liʻaki koe taʻehao-kāinga, koeʻuhi ke hoko ʻo ongoongolelei hono hingoa ʻi ʻIsileli.
15 他是你心靈的安慰，是你老年的依靠，因為他是愛你的兒媳所生的；像這樣的兒媳，對你實勝過七個兒子。」
Pea ʻe ʻiate koe ia ko e fakaakeake moʻui, pea ko e tauhi kiate koe ʻi hoʻo motuʻa: koeʻuhi ko hoʻo taʻahine ʻi he fono, ʻaia ʻoku ʻofa kiate koe, ʻaia ʻoku lelei lahi kiate koe ʻi he tama tangata ʻe toko fitu, kuo ne fanauʻi kiate ia.”
16 納敖米接過嬰兒來，抱在懷中，做了他的保母。
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Naomi ʻae tamasiʻi, pea ʻai ia ki hono fatafata, pea hoko ia ko hono tauhi.
17 鄰近的婦女喊著說：「納敖米得了個兒子! 」他們就給他起名叫敖貝得；他就是達味的父親葉瑟的父親。達味族譜
Pea naʻe fakahingoa ia ʻe he kau fefine ʻo hono kaungāʻapi, ʻo pehē, “Kuo tupu ʻae tama kia Naomi, pea naʻa nau ui hono hingoa ko ʻOpeti: ko ia ia ko e tamai ʻa Sese, ko e tamai ʻa Tevita.
18 以下是培肋茲的族譜：培勒茲生赫茲龍，
Pea ko e ngaahi toʻutangata eni ʻo Felesi: naʻe tupu ʻia Felesi ʻa Hesiloni,
19 赫茲龍生蘭，蘭生阿米納達布，
Pea tupu ʻia Hesiloni ʻa Lame, pea tupu ʻia Lame ʻa ʻAminitapi,
20 阿米納達布生納赫雄，納赫雄生撒耳孟，
Pea tupu ʻia ʻAminitapi ʻa Nasoni, pea tupu ʻia Nasoni ʻa Salimoni,
21 撒耳孟生波阿次，波阿次生敖貝得，
Pea tupu ʻia Salimoni ʻa Poasi, pea tupu ʻia Poasi ʻa ʻOpeti,
22 敖貝得生葉瑟，葉瑟生達味。
Pea tupu ʻia ʻOpeti ʻa Sese, pea tupu ʻia Sese ʻa Tevita.”
