< Ruth 2 >

1 Now Naomi had a relative on her husband’s side, a prominent man of noble character from the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.
Tun hiche Bethlehem ahin mihaotah leh mithuneitah khat amin Boaz kitipa chu ana ummin amachu Naomi jipa Elimelech sopi anahi.
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Please let me go into the fields and glean heads of grain after someone in whose sight I may find favor.” “Go ahead, my daughter,” Naomi replied.
Nikhat hi Moab numeinu Ruth chun Naomi kommah, “Keima hi neisollin lang chang-at ho lah a che ing kating, koi hijong leh khotona einei poupou kom’ah changkhai gahol tange,” ati. Hichun Naomi chun ajah a “Chanu, che jeng in,” ati.
3 So Ruth departed and went out into the field and gleaned after the harvesters. And she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelech.
Hitichun Ruth chu akipatdoh in chang-at ho nung langa chun achen, changkhai ho chu achom pan tan ahi. Hitia changkhai achomna loilai chu atehpu Elimelech sopipa Boaz loulai ana hikha in ahi.
4 Just then Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and said to the harvesters, “The LORD be with you.” “The LORD bless you,” they replied.
Hitia changkhai ana kichom laipet tah chun Boaz chu Bethlehem’a kon in ahung in “Pakaiyin naumpiu hen,” atin, amahon jong “Pakaiyin phatthei naboh hen” atiuve.
5 And Boaz asked the foreman of his harvesters, “Whose young woman is this?”
Hichun aman tohvaihompa kom’ah chun, “Hichea numei khangdong nukhu koiham? tia adoh leh,
6 The foreman answered, “She is the Moabitess who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.
Tohvaihompan ahin donbutnin, “Amanu khu Moab Numei Naomi toh hung kinungle khom numei chu ahi,” ati.
7 She has said, ‘Please let me glean and gather among the sheaves after the harvesters.’ So she came out and has continued from morning until now, except that she rested a short time in the shelter.”
“Amanu hin tujingkah chun chang-at ho nung langa akhaiho hi kaki donkhom thei ding ham tin eina dongin ahi. Chomkhatcha jong touthim manlouvin anatoh ding toh nan akisalal lheh jeng e,” tin adonbut’in ahi.
8 Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter. Do not go and glean in another field, and do not go away from this place, but stay here close to my servant girls.
Hichun Boaz chu Ruth kommah chun achen ajah a, “Ngaijin kachanu, changkhai nakihol sung hin keiho kom’ah um jeng in, koima dang louva che hih in, kalouva natong numeiho nunga hin um jeng in,” ati.
9 Let your eyes be on the field they are harvesting, and follow along after these girls. Indeed, I have ordered the young men not to touch you. And when you are thirsty, go and drink from the jars the young men have filled.”
Achang at namun u melchih in lang chule anung’u jui jeng in, gollhang hohin nadeichatvei louna diuva keiman kagihsal ahitai. Nadang achah teng tuikulla konna agadop’u tuikhu don jeng in,” atipeh tan ahi.
10 At this, she fell on her face, bowing low to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you should take notice of me, even though I am a foreigner?”
Ruth chun akengphang’a abohkhup jeng in hiti hin kipathu aseije, “Keima hila gam chommi kahin, i-atileh hibang lomma hi neikhoto hitam?” ati.
11 Boaz replied, “I have been made fully aware of all you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, how you left your father and mother and the land of your birth, and how you came to a people you did not know before.
Boaz in adobutnin, “Ken nangma kahenai,” ati, “chujongle najipa athijouva nung’a nangin ichangeiya natehpi khohsahna neitah anahin jen hitam, chujong leh i-changeija nagam leiset anu leh napa nahin dalhah a gam chombeh miho lah a hi nahung chenkhompi jeng ham tijong kahei,
12 May the LORD repay your work, and may you receive a rich reward from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have taken refuge.”
Alhaving noija nahung kipehlutna Israel Pakai Pathen chun nathilphabol hojeh hin phattheina lhingset’in phattheina nape tahen,” ati.
13 “My lord,” she said, “may I continue to find favor in your eyes, for you have comforted and spoken kindly to your maidservant, though I am not like one of your servant girls.”
Ruth in “Hepu kachunga nalunglhaina um jingta hen, nana tongho lah a khat jeng jong kahilou vang'in, nang in khotona neitah in thu naseiyin neilhamon’e,” ati.
14 At mealtime Boaz said to her, “Come over here; have some bread and dip it into the vinegar sauce.” So she sat down beside the harvesters, and he offered her roasted grain, and she ate and was satisfied and had some left over.
Sun-an nehphatnin Boaz in amanu chu akouvin, “Hilanga hung in lang bu hung nen, nachang lhah chu lengpi thei twi lah'a hin sulut’in lang nen,” ati. Hitichun Ruth chu chang at holah’a chun atouvin ahileh, Boaz in anehding changlhah apen, amanjong aoiva set anen, aneh moh themkhat jong jong anei nalai in ahi.
15 When Ruth got up to glean, Boaz ordered his young men, “Even if she gathers among the sheaves, do not insult her.
Ruth chu natonga akilekit phatnin, Boaz in agollhang ho chu thu apen, amanu hi jada hih un, nalah uva changvui chu kilo khomsah un,” ati.
16 Rather, pull out for her some stalks from the bundles and leave them for her to gather. Do not rebuke her.”
“Sakol changvui ho chu alomlah akon’in ladoh unlang amanun akiloding gunset in selhah peh jeng un, hichu kilhensah unlang sugenthei hih un,” ati.
17 So Ruth gathered grain in the field until evening. And when she beat out what she had gleaned, it was about an ephah of barley.
Hitichun Ruth in nilhum keijin chang chu akidon khommin achangho chu ajeplhah phatnin abong chu adimset tai.
18 She picked up the grain and went into the town, where her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. And she brought out what she had saved from her meal and gave it to Naomi.
Amanun hichu khopi sunga atehpi kom’ah apolut’in avetsah in achanglhah nehmoh akhenpeh jong chu apen tan ahi.
19 Then her mother-in-law asked her, “Where did you glean today, and where did you work? Blessed be the man who noticed you.” So she told her mother-in-law where she had worked. “The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,” she said.
Naomi’in, “Chang hijat pihi hoilanga nagalo khom ham? Pakaiyin nahin kithopipa hi phattheiboh hen!” ati. Hichun Ruth nin atehpi kom’ah chun changkhai aga kidonna louneipa thu chu aseipeh tan ahi. Tuni kagatoh na louneipa chu Boaz ahi, ati.
20 Then Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not withdrawn His kindness from the living or the dead.” Naomi continued, “The man is a close relative. He is one of our kinsman-redeemers.”
“Amachu Pathen’in phattheiboh hen” atin, Naomi’n amounu jah’a chun hitin aseipeh tai “Aman hitobang khotona anei hi eini chung’a ahin, chule najipa chung’a ahi. Amapahi i-insung’u kiledohsah thei ikinaipi pen khatnu chu ahi,” ati.
21 Then Ruth the Moabitess said, “He also told me, ‘Stay with my young men until they have finished gathering all my harvest.’”
Ruth’in aseibe in, “Boaz’in hungkit’in lang chang-at hi akichai kahsen, changvo ho lah a hi kaum khom jing nadiuvin eiseipeh in ahi,” ati.
22 And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law Ruth, “My daughter, it is good for you to work with his young women, so that nothing will happen to you in another field.”
Naomi’n, “Aphai, kachanu aman naseipeh bang bang hin chonnin, hiche chang at-hi akichai kahsen anungah holah a chun um'in, loumun danga che hih in, min nadei chatvei thei ahin ama louva vang hi imacha tilou ding ahi,” atipeh e.
23 So Ruth stayed close to the servant girls of Boaz to glean grain until the barley and wheat harvests were finished. And she lived with her mother-in-law.
Hitichun Ruth jong Boaz loulai achun sakol chang-at kichai kahse chun anumei houtoh atongkhom’in, changkhai chu akilokhom’in ahi. Chuleh sakol chang leh suhlou chang-at kichai kahsen changkhai akichomtai, hiche sungse hin, ama atehpitoh aum khom jing jing in ahi.
