Ruth 2
1 And Naomi had a relation of her husband, a man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.
| در بیت‌لحم مرد ثروتمندی به نام بوعز زندگی می‌کرد که از بستگان اِلیمِلِک شوهر نعومی بود. |
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Now let me go into the field and take up the heads of grain after him in whose eyes I may have grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
| روزی روت به نعومی گفت: «اجازه بده به کشتزارها بروم و در زمین کسی که به من اجازهٔ خوشه‌چینی بدهد خوشه‌هایی را که بعد از درو باقی می‌ماند، جمع کنم.» نعومی گفت: «بسیار خوب دخترم، برو.» |
3 And she went, and came and took up the heads of grain in the field after the cutters; and by chance she went into that part of the field which was the property of Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
| پس روت به کشتزار رفته، مشغول خوشه‌چینی شد. اتفاقاً کشتزاری که او در آن خوشه می‌چید از آن بوعز، خویشاوند اِلیمِلِک شوهر نعومی بود. |
4 And Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said to the grain-cutters, The Lord be with you. And they made answer, The Lord give you his blessing.
| در این وقت، بوعز از شهر به کشتزار آمد. او به دروگران سلام کرده، گفت: «خداوند با شما باشد.» آنها نیز در جواب گفتند: «خداوند تو را برکت دهد.» |
5 Then Boaz said to his servant who was in authority over the cutters, Whose girl is this?
| سپس بوعز از سرکارگرش پرسید: «این زنی که خوشه می‌چیند کیست؟» |
6 And the servant who was in authority over the cutters said, It is a Moabite girl who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab;
| او جواب داد: «این همان زن موآبی است که همراه نعومی از موآب آمده است. |
7 And she said to me, Let me come into the grain-field and take up the grain after the cutters. So she came, and has been here from morning till now, without resting even for a minute.
| او امروز صبح به اینجا آمد و از من اجازه گرفت تا به دنبال دروگران خوشه بچیند. از صبح تا حالا مشغول خوشه‌چینی است و فقط کمی زیر سایبان استراحت کرده است.» |
8 Then said Boaz to Ruth, Give ear to me, my daughter: do not go to take up the grain in another field, or go away from here, but keep here by my young women:
| بوعز پیش روت رفت و به او گفت: «گوش کن دخترم، به کشتزار دیگری نرو، همین‌جا با کنیزان من باش و در کشتراز من به دنبال دروگران خوشه‌چینی کن. به کارگرانم دستور داده‌ام که مزاحم تو نشوند. هر وقت تشنه شدی برو و از کوزه‌های آبِ آنها بنوش.» |
9 Keep your eyes on the field they are cutting, and go after them; have I not given orders to the young men not to put a hand on you? And when you are in need of drink go to the vessels and take of what the young men have put there.
10 Then she went down on her face to the earth, and said to him, Why have I grace in your eyes, that you give attention to me, seeing I am from a strange people?
| روت رو بر زمین نهاد و از او تشکر کرد و گفت: «چرا با اینکه می‌دانید من یک بیگانه‌ام، مرا مورد لطف خود قرار می‌دهید؟» |
11 And Boaz answering said to her, I have had news of everything you have done for your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; how you went away from your father and mother and the land of your birth, and came to a people who are strange to you.
| بوعز جواب داد: «می‌دانم پس از مرگ شوهرت چقدر به مادر شوهرت محبت کرده‌ای و چگونه به خاطر او پدر و مادر و زادگاه خود را ترک کرده و با وی به اینجا آمده‌ای تا در میان قومی زندگی کنی که آنها را نمی‌شناختی. |
12 The Lord give you a reward for what you have done, and may a full reward be given to you by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take cover.
| خداوند، پاداش این فداکاری تو را بدهد و از سوی یهوه خدای اسرائیل که زیر بالهایش پناه گرفته‌ای، اجر کامل به تو برسد.» |
13 Then she said, May I have grace in your eyes, my lord, for you have given me comfort, and you have said kind words to your servant, though I am not like one of your servants.
| روت در پاسخ وی گفت: «سرور من، شما نسبت به من خیلی لطف دارید. من حتی یکی از کنیزان شما نیز به حساب نمی‌آیم ولی با وجود این با سخنانتان مرا دلداری می‌دهید!» |
14 And at meal-time Boaz said to her, Come here, and take some of the bread, and put your bit into the wine. And she took her seat among the grain-cutters: and he gave her dry grain, and she took it, and there was more than enough for her meal.
| وقت نهار، بوعز او را صدا زده، گفت: «بیا غذا بخور.» روت رفت و پیش دروگرها نشست و بوعز خوراکی پیش او گذاشت و روت خورد و سیر شد و از آن خوراکی مقداری نیز باقی ماند. |
15 And when she got ready to take up the grain, Boaz gave his young men orders, saying, Let her take it even from among the cut grain, and say nothing to her.
| وقتی روت به سرکارش رفت، بوعز به دروگرانش گفت: «بگذارید او هر جا می‌خواهد خوشه جمع کند حتی در میان بافه‌ها، و مزاحم او نشوید. در ضمن عمداً خوشه‌هایی از بافه‌ها بیرون کشیده، بر زمین بریزید تا او آنها را جمع کند.» |
16 And let some heads of grain be pulled out of what has been corded up, and dropped for her to take, and let no sharp word be said to her.
17 So she went on getting together the heads of grain till evening; and after crushing out the seed it came to about an ephah of grain.
| روت تمام روز در آن کشتزار خوشه‌چینی کرد. غروب، آنچه را که جمع کرده بود کوبید و حدود ده کیلو جو به دست آمد. |
18 And she took it up and went into the town; and she let her mother-in-law see what she had got, and after taking enough for herself she gave her the rest.
| او آن را با باقیماندهٔ خوراک ظهر برداشته به شهر پیش مادرشوهرش برد. |
19 And her mother-in-law said to her, Where did you take up the grain today, and where were you working? May a blessing be on him who gave such attention to you. And she gave her mother-in-law an account of where she had been working, and said, The name of the man with whom I was working today is Boaz.
| نعومی گفت: «دخترم، امروز در کجا خوشه‌چینی کردی؟ خدا به آن کسی که به تو توجه نموده است برکت دهد.» روت همهٔ ماجرا را برای مادرشوهرش تعریف کرد و گفت که نام صاحب کشتزار بوعز است. |
20 And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, May the blessing of the Lord, who has at all times been kind to the living and to the dead, be on him. And Naomi said to her, The man is of our family, one of our near relations.
| نعومی به عروس خود گفت: «خداوند او را برکت دهد! خداوند به شوهر مرحوم تو احسان نموده و لطف خود را از ما دریغ نداشته است. آن شخص از بستگان نزدیک ماست که می‌تواند ولی ما باشد.» |
21 And Ruth the Moabitess said, Truly, he said to me, Keep near my young men till all my grain is cut.
| روت به مادرشوهرش گفت: «او به من گفت که تا پایان فصل درو می‌توانم در کشتزارش به دنبال دروگرانش خوشه‌چینی کنم.» |
22 And Naomi said to Ruth, her daughter-in-law, It is better, my daughter, for you to go out with his servant-girls, so that no danger may come to you in another field.
| نعومی گفت: «بله دخترم، بهتر است با کنیزان بوعز خوشه‌چینی کنی. برای تو کشتزار بوعز از هر جای دیگری امن‌تر است.» |
23 So she kept near the servant-girls of Boaz to take up the grain till the cutting of the early grain and the cutting of the late grain were ended; and she went on living with her mother-in-law.
| پس روت تا پایان فصل درو جو و گندم نزد کنیزان بوعز به خوشه‌چینی مشغول شد. او همچنان با مادرشوهرش زندگی می‌کرد. |
