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 azalaki na ndeko moko kati na libota ya mobali na ye; ndeko yango azalaki ya etuka ya Elimeleki, azalaki penza na bozwi mingi; kombo na ye ezalaki « Boazi. »
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.
Rite, moto ya Moabi, alobaki na Naomi: — Okoki kopesa ngai nzela ya kokende na bilanga mpo na kolokota mito ya ble, oyo bato oyo bakataka ble batiki. Nakozala na sima ya moto oyo akosalela ngai ngolu. Naomi alobaki na ye: — Mwana na ngai, kende.
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.
Rite akendeki mpe abandaki kolokota ble na bilanga, na sima ya bato oyo bakataka ble. Akutanaki na libaku ya malamu, pamba te ayaki kososola ete azali kosala kati na elanga ya Boazi, moto ya etuka ya Elimeleki.
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!
Sima na mwa tango, Boazi awutaki na Beteleemi; ayaki ye moko, apesaki mbote na bato oyo bakataka ble na koloba: — Tika ete Yawe azala elongo na bino! Bazongiselaki ye: — Tika ete Yawe apambola yo!
5 And Boaz said to his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose maiden is this?
Boazi atunaki mokambi ya bato oyo bakataka ble: — Elenge mwasi wana azali ya nani?
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;
Mokambi ya bato oyo bakataka ble azongisaki: — Azali elenge mwasi ya Moabi; ayaki elongo na Naomi wuta na mboka Moabi.
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.
Asengaki biso nzela ya kolokota mito ya ble, oyo etikalaka tango bakangaka maboke, na sima ya bato oyo bakataka ble. Na tongo ya lelo, akotaki na bilanga mpe azali kosala na molende nyonso; kino sik’oyo, apemi kaka tango moke.
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.
Boazi alobaki na Rite: — Yoka ngai malamu, mwana na ngai ya mwasi: « Kokende kolokota ble na bilanga mosusu te mpe kokende mosika ya elanga oyo te, kasi vanda awa elongo na basali na ngai ya basi.
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.
Tala malamu bilanga oyo epai wapi bato bazali kokata ble mpe zala na sima ya bana basi oyo bazali kolokota ble. Nalobi na mibali ete basimba yo te. Tango nyonso ozali na posa ya mayi, kende mpe mela na bambeki oyo mibali batondisi. »
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?
Tango Rite ayokaki bongo, agumbamaki, elongi kino na mabele. Alobaki: — Mpo na nini nazwi ngolu ya boye na miso na yo? Mpo na nini ozali kopesa ngai lokumu ya boye, ngai oyo nazali mopaya?
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.
Boazi azongisaki: — Bayebisaki ngai makambo nyonso oyo osalaki mpo na mama-bokilo na yo wuta tango mobali na ye akufaki, ndenge otikaki tata mpe mama na yo, mboka epai wapi obotama, mpe oyaki kovanda elongo na bato oyo oyebaki liboso te.
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.
Tika ete Yawe afuta yo mpo na makambo oyo osalaki. Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, afuta yo koleka, lokola oyaki kobombama na se ya mapapu na Ye!
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.
Rite alobaki: — Tika ete nakoba kozwa ngolu na miso na yo, nkolo na ngai. Obondisi motema na ngai, osololi na mwasi mosali na yo na boboto nyonso. Nzokande, nakokani te ata na moko ya basali na yo ya basi.
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].
Na tango ya kolia, Boazi alobaki na ye: « Pusana awa mpe kamata eteni ya lipa, zindisa yango na vino. » Tango avandaki elongo na bato oyo bakataka ble, Boazi apesaki ye ndambo ya bambuma bakalinga. Aliaki ndenge alingaki mpe atikaki mosusu.
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.
Tango atelemaki mpo na kolokota lisusu ble, Boazi apesaki mitindo epai ya basali na ye: « Botika ye kolokota ata oyo ezali na kati-kati ya maboke, botungisa ye te.
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.
Bokoki mpe kokweyisa bambuma mpo na ye, mpo ete alokota na ye, mpe bozomela ye te. »
17 And she gleaned in the field until even, and beat out what she had gleaned; and it was about an ephah of barley.
Boye Rite alokotaki ble na elanga kino na pokwa, aningisaki oyo alokotaki mpe azwaki bakilo pene tuku minei ya bambuma ya orje.
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.
Amemaki yango na engumba, mpe mama-bokilo na ye amonaki bambuma oyo alokotaki. Rite abimisaki lisusu biloko oyo atikaki tango atondaki mpe apesaki yango epai ya mama-bokilo na ye.
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.
Naomi atunaki Rite: — Lelo, olokotaki ble na esika nini? Osalaki na esika nini? Tika ete moto oyo apesi yo lokumu ya boye apambolama! Bongo Rite ayebisaki mama-bokilo na ye makambo oyo etali nkolo ya esika epai wapi asalaki. Alobaki: « Kombo ya moto yango ezali Boazi. »
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.
Naomi alobaki na bokilo na ye ya mwasi: « Tika ete Yawe apambolama, Ye oyo atiki te kotalisa bolamu na Ye epai na biso bato ya bomoi mpe epai na bakufi. Mobali wana azali ndeko na biso ya pembeni, azali kati na molongo ya bato oyo bakoki kosikola biso. »
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.
Rite, moto ya Moabi, alobaki: — Alobaki na ngai kutu: « Vanda elongo na basali na ngai kino bakosilisa kobuka bambuma na ngai nyonso. »
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.
Naomi azongiselaki Rite, bokilo na ye ya mwasi: — Ekozala malamu mpo na yo kotambolaka elongo na basali na ye ya basi; pamba te soki okeyi na elanga ya moto mosusu, okoki komona pasi.
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.
Boye Rite avandaki pembeni ya basali ya Boazi mpo na kolokota mito ya ble, kino tango ya kobuka bambuma ya orje mpe ya ble, esilaki. Awumelaki kovanda elongo na mama-bokilo na ye.
