Ruth 2
1 And Naomi had a relation of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.
Naomi itu mempunyai seorang sanak dari pihak suaminya, seorang yang kaya raya dari kaum Elimelekh, namanya Boas.
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Let me, I pray, go to the field and glean among the ears of corn after [him] in whose sight I shall find favour. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
Maka Rut, perempuan Moab itu, berkata kepada Naomi: "Biarkanlah aku pergi ke ladang memungut bulir-bulir jelai di belakang orang yang murah hati kepadaku." Dan sahut Naomi kepadanya: "Pergilah, anakku."
3 And she went; and she came and gleaned in the fields after the reapers; and she chanced to light on an allotment of Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
Pergilah ia, lalu sampai di ladang dan memungut jelai di belakang penyabit-penyabit; kebetulan ia berada di tanah milik Boas, yang berasal dari kaum Elimelekh.
4 And behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem; and he said to the reapers, Jehovah be with you! And they said to him, Jehovah bless thee!
Lalu datanglah Boas dari Betlehem. Ia berkata kepada penyabit-penyabit itu: "TUHAN kiranya menyertai kamu." Jawab mereka kepadanya: "TUHAN kiranya memberkati tuan!"
5 And Boaz said to his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose maiden is this?
Lalu kata Boas kepada bujangnya yang mengawasi penyabit-penyabit itu: "Dari manakah perempuan ini?"
6 And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish maiden who came back with Naomi out of the fields of Moab;
Bujang yang mengawasi penyabit-penyabit itu menjawab: "Dia adalah seorang perempuan Moab, dia pulang bersama-sama dengan Naomi dari daerah Moab.
7 and she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather among the sheaves after the reapers. And she came, and has continued from the morning until now: her sitting in the house has been little as yet.
Tadi ia berkata: Izinkanlah kiranya aku memungut dan mengumpulkan jelai dari antara berkas-berkas jelai ini di belakang penyabit-penyabit. Begitulah ia datang dan terus sibuk dari pagi sampai sekarang dan seketikapun ia tidak berhenti."
8 And Boaz said to Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from here, but keep here with my maidens.
Sesudah itu berkatalah Boas kepada Rut: "Dengarlah dahulu, anakku! Tidak usah engkau pergi memungut jelai ke ladang lain dan tidak usah juga engkau pergi dari sini, tetapi tetaplah dekat pengerja-pengerja perempuan.
9 Let thine eyes be on the field which is being reaped, and go thou after them; have I not charged the young men not to touch thee? And when thou art athirst, go to the vessels and drink of what the young men draw.
Lihat saja ke ladang yang sedang disabit orang itu. Ikutilah perempuan-perempuan itu dari belakang. Sebab aku telah memesankan kepada pengerja-pengerja lelaki jangan mengganggu engkau. Jika engkau haus, pergilah ke tempayan-tempayan dan minumlah air yang dicedok oleh pengerja-pengerja itu."
10 Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, Why have I found favour in thine eyes, that thou shouldest regard me, seeing I am a foreigner?
Lalu sujudlah Rut menyembah dengan mukanya sampai ke tanah dan berkata kepadanya: "Mengapakah aku mendapat belas kasihan dari padamu, sehingga tuan memperhatikan aku, padahal aku ini seorang asing?"
11 And Boaz answered and said to her, It has fully been shewn me, all that thou hast done to thy mother-in-law since the death of thy husband; and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come to a people that thou hast not known heretofore.
Boas menjawab: "Telah dikabarkan orang kepadaku dengan lengkap segala sesuatu yang engkau lakukan kepada mertuamu sesudah suamimu mati, dan bagaimana engkau meninggalkan ibu bapamu dan tanah kelahiranmu serta pergi kepada suatu bangsa yang dahulu tidak engkau kenal.
12 Jehovah recompense thy work, and let thy reward be full from Jehovah the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to take refuge.
TUHAN kiranya membalas perbuatanmu itu, dan kepadamu kiranya dikaruniakan upahmu sepenuhnya oleh TUHAN, Allah Israel, yang di bawah sayap-Nya engkau datang berlindung."
13 And she said, Let me find favour in thine eyes, my lord; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken kindly to thy handmaid, though I am not like one of thy handmaidens.
Kemudian berkatalah Rut: "Memang aku mendapat belas kasihan dari padamu, ya tuanku, sebab tuan telah menghiburkan aku dan telah menenangkan hati hambamu ini, walaupun aku tidak sama seperti salah seorang hamba-hambamu perempuan."
14 And Boaz said to her at mealtime, Come hither and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers; and he reached her parched corn, and she ate and was sufficed, and reserved [some].
Ketika sudah waktu makan, berkatalah Boas kepadanya: "Datanglah ke mari, makanlah roti ini dan celupkanlah suapmu ke dalam cuka ini." Lalu duduklah ia di sisi penyabit-penyabit itu, dan Boas mengunjukkan bertih gandum kepadanya; makanlah Rut sampai kenyang, bahkan ada sisanya.
15 And when she rose up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and ye shall not reproach her.
Setelah ia bangun untuk memungut pula, maka Boas memerintahkan kepada pengerja-pengerjanya: "Dari antara berkas-berkas itupun ia boleh memungut, janganlah ia diganggu;
16 And ye shall also sometimes draw out for her [some ears] out of the handfuls, and leave them that she may glean, and rebuke her not.
bahkan haruslah kamu dengan sengaja menarik sedikit-sedikit dari onggokan jelai itu untuk dia dan meninggalkannya, supaya dipungutnya; janganlah berlaku kasar terhadap dia."
17 And she gleaned in the field until even, and beat out what she had gleaned; and it was about an ephah of barley.
Maka ia memungut di ladang sampai petang; lalu ia mengirik yang dipungutnya itu, dan ada kira-kira seefa jelai banyaknya.
18 And she took [it] up, and came into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought forth and gave to her that which she had reserved after she was sufficed.
Diangkatnyalah itu, lalu masuklah ia ke kota. Ketika mertuanya melihat apa yang dipungutnya itu, dan ketika dikeluarkannya dan diberikannya kepada mertuanya sisa yang ada setelah kenyang itu,
19 And her mother-in-law said to her, Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where hast thou wrought? Blessed be he that did regard thee! And she told her mother-in-law with whom she had wrought, and said, The man's name with whom I wrought to-day is Boaz.
maka berkatalah mertuanya kepadanya: "Di mana engkau memungut dan di mana engkau bekerja hari ini? Diberkatilah kiranya orang yang telah memperhatikan engkau itu!" Lalu diceritakannyalah kepada mertuanya itu pada siapa ia bekerja, katanya: "Nama orang pada siapa aku bekerja hari ini ialah Boas."
20 And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed be he of Jehovah, who has not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead! And Naomi said to her, The man is near of kin to us, one of those who have the right of our redemption.
Sesudah itu berkatalah Naomi kepada menantunya: "Diberkatilah kiranya orang itu oleh TUHAN yang rela mengaruniakan kasih setia-Nya kepada orang-orang yang hidup dan yang mati." Lagi kata Naomi kepadanya: "Orang itu kaum kerabat kita, dialah salah seorang yang wajib menebus kita."
21 And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, Thou shalt keep with my young men until they have ended all my harvest.
Lalu kata Rut, perempuan Moab itu: "Lagipula ia berkata kepadaku: Tetaplah dekat pengerja-pengerjaku sampai mereka menyelesaikan seluruh penyabitan ladangku."
22 And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field.
Lalu berkatalah Naomi kepada Rut, menantunya itu: "Ya anakku, sebaiknya engkau keluar bersama-sama dengan pengerja-pengerjanya perempuan, supaya engkau jangan disusahi orang di ladang lain."
23 So she kept with the maidens of Boaz to glean, until the end of the barley-harvest and of the wheat-harvest. And she dwelt with her mother-in-law.
Demikianlah Rut tetap dekat pada pengerja-pengerja perempuan Boas untuk memungut, sampai musim menuai jelai dan musim menuai gandum telah berakhir. Dan selama itu ia tinggal pada mertuanya.
