< 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.
Naaʼomiin balbala Eliimelek keessaa fira dhirsa ishee namicha sooressa Boʼeez jedhamu tokko qabdi turte.
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.
Ruut Moʼaabittiinis Naaʼomiiniin, “Ani nama fuula isaa duratti fudhatama argadhu duubaan qarmii funaannachuuf gara lafa qotiisaatti achi nan baʼa” jette. Naaʼomiinis, “Yaa intala koo dhaqi” jetteen.
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.
Kanaafuu isheen gara lafa qotiisaa dhaqxee warra midhaan haaman duubaan qarmii funaannachuu jalqabde. Isheen utuma qarmii funaannachaa jirtuu akka lafti qotiisaa isheen keessa jirtu sun kan Boʼeez taʼe hubatte; Boʼeez kunis sanyii Eliimelek ture.
4 Just then Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and said to the harvesters, “The LORD be with you.” “The LORD bless you,” they replied.
Yeruma sanatti Boʼeez Beetlihemii dhufee warra midhaan haamaniin, “Waaqayyo isin wajjin haa taʼu!” jedhee nagaa isaan gaafate. Isaanis deebisanii, “Waaqayyo si haa eebbisu!” jedhaniin.
5 And Boaz asked the foreman of his harvesters, “Whose young woman is this?”
Boʼeezis dura buʼaa hojjettoota isaatiin, “Intalli kun kan eenyuu ti?” jedhee gaafate.
6 The foreman answered, “She is the Moabitess who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.
Dura buʼaan sunis akkana jedhee deebise; “Isheen nama Moʼaab; Naaʼomiin wajjin biyya Moʼaabii dhufte.
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.”
Isheenis, ‘Maaloo akka ani hojjettoota duubaan bissii gidduudhaan qarmii funaannadhu naa eeyyami’ jette. Isheen yeroo xinnoof gaaddisa jala boqotte malee ganamaa jalqabdee hamma ammaatti jabaattee hojjechaa turte.”
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.
Kana irratti Boʼeez Ruutiin akkana jedhe; “Yaa intala koo na dhagaʼi. Gara lafa qotiisaa biraa dhaqxee qarmii hin funaanin; iddoo kanaas hin deemin. Asuma hojjettoota koo dubarran wajjin turi.
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.”
Lafa qotiisaa warri dhiiraa keessaa haaman ilaaliitii dubarran duukaa buʼi. Akka isaan siʼi hin tuqne ani warra dhiiraatti himeera. Yeroo dheebottus qodaa bishaanii dhiironni guutan keessaa budduuqsii dhugi.”
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?”
Kana irrattis isheen addaan lafatti gombifamtee, “Ani utuu nama biyya ormaa taʼee jiruu fuula kee duratti surraa argadhee ati na arguun kee kun maaliifi?” jettee isa gaafatte.
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.
Boʼeez immoo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Waan ati erga dhirsi kee duʼee jalqabee haadha dhirsa keetiitiif goote hundumaa, akka ati itti abbaa kee, haadha keetii fi biyya kee dhiiftee saba kanaan dura hin beekin wajjin jiraachuudhaaf dhuftes dhagaʼeera.
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.”
Waaqayyo waan ati goote hundaaf gatii kee siif haa deebisu. Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel kan ati qoochoo isaa jalatti baqachuudhaaf dhufte sun baayʼisee siif haa deebisu.”
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.”
Isheenis akkana jette; “Yaa gooftaa ko, ani yoo akka hojjettoota kee dubarran keessaa akka ishee tokkootti madaalamuu baadhe illee sababii ati na jajjabeessitee gara laafinaan ana garbittii keetti dubbatteef ani fuula kee duratti surraa argadheera.”
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.
Boʼeezis yeroo laaqanaatti, “As kottu. Buddeenas fudhadhuutii wayinii dhangaggaaʼaatti cuuphadhu” jedheen. Yeroo isheen hojjettoota wajjin teessettis asheetii waadame kenneef. Isheenis nyaattee quuftee xinnoon irraa hafeef.
15 When Ruth got up to glean, Boaz ordered his young men, “Even if she gathers among the sheaves, do not insult her.
Akkuma isheen qarmii funaannachuuf ol kaateenis Boʼeez akkana jedhee hojjettoota isaa ajaje; “Yoo isheen bissii gidduudhaa illee qarmii funaannatte ishee hin rifachiisinaa.
16 Rather, pull out for her some stalks from the bundles and leave them for her to gather. Do not rebuke her.”
Qooda kanaa bissii keessaa tokko tokko luqqisaatii akka isheen funaannatuuf lafa bubuusaafii malee isheetti hin dheekkaminaa.”
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.
Kanaafuu Ruut hamma galgalaatti lafa qotiisaa keessaa funaannatte. Garbuu funaannatte sanas ni sukkuumatte; innis gara safartuu iifii tokkoo taʼe.
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.
Isheenis garbuu sana baadhattee magaalaatti deebite; haati dhirsa ishees wanni isheen funaannatte hammam akka taʼe argite. Akkasumas Ruut waan guyyaa nyaattee quuftee ishee irraa hafe sana gad baaftee kenniteef.
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.
Haati dhirsa ishees, “Ati harʼa eessaa funaannatte? Eessa hojjechaa oolte? Namni xiyyeeffannoo kana siif kenne sun haa eebbifamu!” jette. Ergasiis Ruut waaʼee namicha lafa qotiisaa isaa keessaa funaannachaa oolte sanaa haadha dhirsa isheetti himte. Isheenis, “Maqaan namicha ani harʼa bira hojjechaa oole sanaa Boʼeez jedhama” jette.
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.”
Naaʼomiinis, “Waaqayyo inni warra jiraniifis warra duʼaniifis gara laafina gochuu hin dhiifne sun isa haa eebbisu!” jette. Itti dabaluudhaanis, “Inni fira keenya kan dhiʼoo ti; warra nu dhaaluun irra jiru keessaas isa tokkoo dha” isheedhaan jette.
21 Then Ruth the Moabitess said, “He also told me, ‘Stay with my young men until they have finished gathering all my harvest.’”
Ergasiis Ruut Moʼaabittiin, “Inni, ‘Hamma isaan midhaan koo hunda walitti qabanii fixanitti iyyuu hojjettoota koo wajjin turi’ naan jedheera” jetteen.
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.”
Naaʼomiinis niitii ilma ishee Ruutiin, “Yaa intala ko, dubarran isaa wajjin ooluun siif gaarii dha; ati yoo gara lafa qotiisaa nama biraa deemte, miidhaan sirra gaʼuu dandaʼaatii” jette.
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.
Kanaafuu Ruut hamma garbuu fi qamadiin haamamee dhumutti tajaajiltoota Boʼeez dubarran wajjin turte. Haadha dhirsa ishee wajjinis jiraatte.
