Ruth 4
1 Meanwhile, Boaz went to the gate and sat down there. Soon the kinsman-redeemer of whom he had spoken came along, and Boaz said, “Come over here, my friend, and sit down.” So he went over and sat down.
A Voz izide na vrata gradska, i sjede ondje. I gle, naiðe onaj osvetnik, za kojega Voz govoraše, i reèe mu Voz: hodi ovamo, sjedi ovdje. I on doðe i sjede.
2 Then Boaz took ten of the elders of the city and said, “Sit here,” and they did so.
Potom uze Voz deset ljudi izmeðu starješina gradskih i reèe: posjedajte ovdje. I posjedaše.
3 And he said to the kinsman-redeemer, “Naomi, who has returned from the land of Moab, is selling the piece of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech.
Tada reèe onomu osvetniku: njivu koja je bila brata našega Elimeleha prodala je Nojemina, koja se vratila iz zemlje Moavske.
4 I thought I should inform you that you may buy it back in the presence of those seated here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you want to redeem it, do so. But if you will not redeem it, tell me so I may know, because there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.” “I will redeem it,” he replied.
Zato rekoh: da javim tebi, i kažem ti: uzmi njivu pred ovima što sjede ovdje i pred starješinama naroda mojega; ako æeš otkupiti, otkupi; ako li neæeš otkupiti, kaži mi da znam; jer osim tebe nema drugoga koji bi otkupio, a poslije tebe idem ja. A on reèe: ja æu otkupiti.
5 Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the land from Naomi and also from Ruth the Moabitess, you must also acquire the widow of the deceased in order to raise up the name of the deceased on his inheritance.”
A Voz reèe: u koji dan uzmeš njivu iz ruke Nojeminine, treba da uzmeš i Rutu Moavku ženu umrloga, da podigneš ime umrlomu u našljedstvu njegovu.
6 The kinsman-redeemer replied, “I cannot redeem it myself, or I would jeopardize my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption, because I cannot redeem it.”
Tada reèe onaj osvetnik: ne mogu otkupiti, da ne raspem svojega našljedstva; otkupi ti što bi trebalo da ja otkupim, jer ja ne mogu otkupiti.
7 Now in former times in Israel, concerning the redemption or exchange of property, to make any matter legally binding a man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party, and this was a confirmation in Israel.
A bijaše od starine obièaj u Izrailju o otkupljivanju i promijenjivanju, da bi svaka stvar bila tvrda, da jedan izuje obuæu svoju i da drugomu, i to bijaše svedodžba u Izrailju.
8 So the kinsman-redeemer removed his sandal and said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself.”
Kad dakle onaj osvetnik reèe Vozu: uzmi ti, izu obuæu svoju.
9 At this, Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I am buying from Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech, Chilion, and Mahlon.
A Voz reèe starješinama i svemu narodu: vi ste svjedoci danas da sam otkupio iz ruke Nojeminine što je god bilo Elimelehovo i što je god bilo Heleonovo i Malonovo;
10 Moreover, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, Mahlon’s widow, as my wife, to raise up the name of the deceased through his inheritance, so that his name will not disappear from among his brothers or from the gate of his home. You are witnesses today.”
I da sam uzeo za ženu Rutu Moavku ženu Malonovu da podignem ime umrlomu u našljedstvu njegovu, da ne bi poginulo ime umrlomu meðu braæom njegovom i u mjestu njegovu; vi ste svjedoci danas.
11 “We are witnesses,” said the elders and all the people at the gate. “May the LORD make the woman entering your home like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you be prosperous in Ephrathah and famous in Bethlehem.
I sav narod koji bijaše na vratima gradskim i starješine rekoše: svjedoci smo; da da Gospod da žena koja dolazi u dom tvoj bude kao Rahilja i Lija, koje obje sazidaše dom Izrailjev; bogati se u Efrati, i proslavi ime svoje u Vitlejemu!
12 And may your house become like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring the LORD will give you by this young woman.”
I od sjemena koje ti Gospod da od te žene, da postane dom tvoj kao dom Faresa kojega rodi Tamara Judi.
13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife. And when he had relations with her, the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son.
I tako uze Voz Rutu i bi mu žena, i on leže s njom, i Gospod joj dade te zatrudnje, i rodi sina.
14 Then the women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a kinsman-redeemer. May his name become famous in Israel.
I rekoše žene Nojemini: da je blagosloven Gospod koji te nije ostavio danas bez osvetnika, da se ime njegovo slavi u Izrailju!
15 He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. For your daughter-in-law, who loves you and is better to you than seven sons, has given him birth.”
On æe ti utješiti dušu i biæe potpora starosti tvojoj, jer ga rodi snaha tvoja koja te ljubi i koja ti je bolja nego sedam sinova.
16 And Naomi took the child, placed him on her lap, and became a nurse to him.
I uze Nojemina dijete, i metnu ga na krilo svoje, i bješe mu dadilja.
17 The neighbor women said, “A son has been born to Naomi,” and they named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse, the father of David.
I susjede nadješe mu ime govoreæi: rodi se sin Nojemini, i prozvaše ga Ovid. On bi otac Jeseja oca Davidova.
18 Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,
A ovo je pleme Faresovo: Fares rodi Esroma;
19 Hezron was the father of Ram, Ram was the father of Amminadab,
A Esrom rodi Arama; a Aram rodi Aminadava;
20 Amminadab was the father of Nahshon, Nahshon was the father of Salmon,
A Aminadav rodi Nasona; a Nason rodi Salmona;
21 Salmon was the father of Boaz, Boaz was the father of Obed,
A Salmon rodi Voza; a Voz rodi Ovida;
22 Obed was the father of Jesse, and Jesse was the father of David.
A Ovid rodi Jeseja; a Jesej rodi Davida.
