Ruth 2
1 Now Naomi had a relative on her husband's side whose name was Boaz. He was a rich and influential man from the family of Elimelech.
Naomi ní ìbátan kan láti ìdílé Elimeleki ọkọ rẹ̀, aláàánú ọlọ́rọ̀, ẹni tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Boasi.
2 Soon after Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, “Please let me go to the fields and pick up grain that's been left behind—if I can find someone will give me permission.” “Yes, go ahead, my daughter,” Naomi replied.
Rutu ará Moabu sì wí fún Naomi pé, “Jẹ́ kí èmi kí ó lọ sí inú oko láti ṣá ọkà tí àwọn olùkórè fi sílẹ̀ ní ọ̀dọ̀ ẹnikẹ́ni tí èmi yóò bá ojúrere rẹ̀ pàdé.” Naomi sì sọ fún un pé, “Máa lọ, ọmọbìnrin mi.”
3 So she went and picked up grain the reapers had left behind. She happened to be working in a field that belonged to Boaz, a relative of Elimelech.
Rutu sì jáde lọ láti ṣá ọkà tí àwọn olùkórè fi sílẹ̀ lẹ́yìn wọn. Ó wá jẹ́ wí pé inú oko Boasi tí ó ti ìdílé Elimeleki wá ni ó lọ láìmọ̀-ọ́n-mọ̀.
4 Later on Boaz arrived from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, “May the Lord be with you!” They replied, “The Lord bless you!”
Nígbà náà ni Boasi dé láti Bẹtilẹhẹmu tí ó sì kí àwọn olùkórè wí pé, “Kí Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú yín.” Wọ́n sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Kí Olúwa bùkún fún ọ.”
5 Then Boaz asked his servant who was in charge of the harvesters, “Who is this young woman related to?”
Boasi sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ olórí àwọn olùkórè wí pé, “Ti ta ni ọ̀dọ́mọbìnrin yẹn?”
6 “The young woman is a Moabite who came back with Naomi from Moab,” the servant replied.
Ìránṣẹ́ tí ó jẹ́ olórí àwọn olùkórè náà sì fèsì pé, “Ọ̀dọ́mọbìnrin ará Moabu tí ó tẹ̀lé Naomi wá láti ilẹ̀ Moabu ni.
7 “She asked me, ‘Please may I have permission to pick up grain behind the reapers.’ So she came, and she's been working here from morning until now, except for a brief rest in the shelter.”
Ó sọ wí pé, ‘Kí ń jọ̀wọ́ jẹ́ kí òun máa ṣá ọkà lẹ́yìn àwọn olùkórè.’ Ó sì ti ń ṣe iṣẹ́ kárakára láti òwúrọ̀ títí di ìsinsin yìí nínú oko àyàfi ìgbà tí ó lọ láti sinmi fún ìgbà díẹ̀ lábẹ́ ibojì.”
8 Boaz went and spoke to Ruth. “Listen to me, my daughter,” he told her. “Don't leave to go and pick up grain in someone else's field. Stay close to my women.
Nígbà náà ni Boasi sọ fún Rutu pé, “Gbọ́ ọmọbìnrin mi, má ṣe lọ sí oko mìíràn láti ṣá ọkà, má sì ṣe kúrò ní ibi. Dúró níbí pẹ̀lú àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin mi.
9 Pay attention to what part of the field the men are reaping and follow the women. I've told the men not to bother you. When you get thirsty, go and have a drink from the water jars the servants have filled.”
Wo ibi tí wọ́n ti ń kórè kí o sì máa tẹ̀lé àwọn obìnrin. Mo ti pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọkùnrin kí wọ́n má ṣe fi ọwọ́ kàn ọ́. Nígbàkígbà tí òǹgbẹ bá sì ń gbẹ ọ́, lọ kí ó sì mu omi nínú àmù èyí tí àwọn ọkùnrin ti pọn omi sí nínú.”
10 She bowed down with her face to the ground. “Why are you being so kind to me or even notice me, seeing I'm a foreigner?” she asked him.
Rutu wólẹ̀, ó sì wí fún Boasi pé, “Èéṣe tí èmi fi bá ojúrere rẹ pàdé tó báyìí, tí o sì kíyèsi mi, èmi àjèjì àti àlejò?”
11 “I've heard about all you've done for your mother-in-law since your husband died,” Boaz replied. “And also how you left your father and mother, and the land of your birth, to come and live among people you didn't know.
Boasi sì fèsì wí pé, “Èmi ti gbọ́ gbogbo bí o ti ń ṣe sí ìyá ọkọ ọ̀ rẹ láti ìgbà tí ọkọ rẹ ti kú àti bí o ti ṣe fi baba àti ìyá rẹ àti ilẹ̀ rẹ sílẹ̀, tí o sì wá láti gbé láàrín àwọn ènìyàn tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ tẹ́lẹ̀ rí.
12 May the Lord fully reward you for all you've done—the Lord, the God of Israel, to whom you've come for protection.
Kí Olúwa kí ó san ẹ̀san ohun tí ìwọ ṣe fún ọ. Kí o sì gba èrè kíkún láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, abẹ́ ìyẹ́ ẹni tí ìwọ sá wá fún ààbò.”
13 Thank you for being so good to me, sir,” she replied. “You have reassured me by speaking to me kindly. I'm not even one of your servants.”
Rutu sì fèsì wí pé, “Kí èmi kí ó máa rí ojúrere láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ síwájú sí i olúwa mi. Ìwọ ti tù mí nínú nípa sísọ ọ̀rọ̀ rere sí ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé èmi kò tó ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ.”
14 When it was time to eat, Boaz called her over. “Come here,” he said. “Take some bread and dip it in wine vinegar.” So she sat down with the workers and Boaz passed her some roasted grain to eat. She ate until she'd had enough with some left over.
Nígbà tí àkókò oúnjẹ sì tó, Boasi sọ fún Rutu pé, “Wá gba ìwọ̀n àkàrà yìí kí o sì fi run wáìnì kíkan.” Òun sì jókòó pẹ̀lú àwọn olùkórè, Boasi sì fún un ní ọkà yíyan. Òun sì jẹ́, ó yó, ó sì tún ṣẹ́kù.
15 After Ruth went back to work Boaz told his men, “Let her pick up grain even among the sheaves. Don't say anything to embarrass her.
Nígbà tí ó sì dìde láti máa ṣá ọkà, Boasi pàṣẹ fún àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wí pé, “Bí ó tilẹ̀ ń ṣà láàrín oko ọkà pàápàá, ẹ má ṣe dí i lọ́wọ́.
16 In fact, pull out some stalks from the bundles you're cutting and leave them for her to pick up. Don't tell her off.”
Bí kò ṣe pé kí ẹ mú lára àwọn ìtí sílẹ̀ fún láti ṣá, kí ẹ má sì ṣe ba a wí.”
17 Ruth worked in the field until the evening. When she beat out the grain that she had picked up it was a large amount.
Rutu sì ń ṣá ọkà títí ó fi di ìrọ̀lẹ́, nígbà tí ó sì pa ọkà barle tí ó rí ṣà, tí ó sì fẹ́ ẹ tán, èyí tí ó rí sì tó ìwọ̀n garawa kan (lita méjìlélógún).
18 She picked it up and took it back to town to show her mother-in-law how much she had collected. Ruth also gave her what she had left over from her meal.
Ó sì gbé e, ó sì lọ sí ìlú, ìyá ọkọ rẹ sì rí ọkà tí ó rí ṣà bi o tí pọ̀ tó, Rutu sì mú oúnjẹ tí ó jẹ kù lẹ́yìn tí ó ti yó tan fún ìyá ọkọ rẹ̀.
19 Naomi asked her, “Where did you pick up grain today? Exactly where did you work? Bless whoever cared enough about you to pay you some attention!” So she told her mother-in-law about who she had worked with. “The man I worked with today is called Boaz.”
Ìyá ọkọ rẹ̀ sì bi í léèrè wí pé, “Níbo ni ìwọ ti ṣá ọkà lónìí? Àti wí pé oko ta ni ìwọ gbé ṣiṣẹ́? Alábùkún fún ni ọkùnrin náà tí ó bojú wò ọ.” Rutu sì sọ ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ó ti ṣiṣẹ́ fún ìyá ọkọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ní oko ọkùnrin kan tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Boasi ni mo ti ṣiṣẹ́ lónìí.”
20 “The Lord bless him!” Naomi exclaimed to her daughter-in-law. “He goes on showing his kindness to the living and the dead. That man is a close relative to us—a ‘family redeemer.’”
Naomi sì wí fún un pé, “Kí Olúwa, kí ó bùkún fún ọkùnrin náà. Ọlọ́run kò dáwọ́ oore àti àánú ṣíṣe sí àwọn alààyè àti òkú dúró.” Naomi sì sọ síwájú sí i wí pé, “Ìbátan tí ó súnmọ́ wa pẹ́kípẹ́kí ni ọkùnrin náà ń ṣe, ó sì jẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tí ó ní ẹ̀tọ́ láti ra ohun ìní ìdílé padà.”
21 Ruth added, “He also told me, ‘Stay close to my workers until they have finished harvesting my entire crop.’”
Rutu, ará Moabu sì wí pé, “Ju gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ, ó sọ fún mi pé, ‘Kí ń máa ṣá ọkà pẹ̀lú àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ òun, títí wọn yóò fi parí ìkórè.’”
22 “That's good, my daughter,” Naomi told Ruth. “Stay with his women workers. Don't go to other fields where you might be molested.”
Naomi sì sọ fún Rutu, ìyàwó ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ìbá dára bí ó bá le bá àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ̀ ṣiṣẹ́. Nítorí pé wọ́n le è dà ọ́ láàmú bí o bá lọ sí oko ẹlòmíràn.”
23 So Ruth stayed with Boaz' women workers picking up grain until the end of the barley harvest, and then on to the end of the wheat harvest. She lived with her mother-in-law the whole time.
Rutu sì bá àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin Boasi ṣiṣẹ́ títí tí wọ́n fi parí ìkórè ọkà barle àti ti jéró. Ó sì ń gbé pẹ̀lú ìyá ọkọ rẹ̀.
