Ruth 3
1 A little later Naomi said to Ruth, “My daughter, don't you think I should find you a husband and a good home?
At sinabi sa kaniya ni Noemi na kaniyang biyanan, Anak ko, hindi ba kita ihahanap ng kapahingahan, na ikabubuti mo?
2 Don't ignore the fact that Boaz, whose women you worked with, is closely related to us. Now tonight he will be busy winnowing grain on the threshing floor.
At ngayo'y wala ba rito si Booz na ating kamaganak, na ang kaniyang mga alila ay siya mong kinasama? Narito, kaniyang pahahanginan ang sebada ngayong gabi sa giikan.
3 Have a bath, put on some perfume, wear your best clothes, and go down to the threshing floor—but don't let him recognize you. Once he's finished eating and drinking,
Maligo ka nga, at magpahid ka ng langis, at magbihis ka at bumaba ka sa giikan: nguni't huwag kang pakilala sa lalake, hanggang siya'y makakain at makainom.
4 watch where he goes to lie down. Then go and uncover his feet and lie down. Then he will tell you what to do.”
At mangyayari, paghiga niya, na iyong tatandaan ang dakong kaniyang hihigaan, at ikaw ay papasok, at iyong alisan ng takip ang kaniyang mga paa, at mahiga ka; at sasabihin niya sa iyo kung ano ang iyong gagawin.
5 “I'll do everything you told me,” said Ruth.
At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Lahat ng iyong sinasabi sa akin ay aking gagawin.
6 She went down to the threshing floor and did what her mother-in-law had told her to do.
At siya'y bumaba sa giikan, at ginawa niya ang ayon sa buong iniutos sa kaniya ng kaniyang biyanan.
7 After Boaz had finished eating and drinking, and was feeling contented, he went and lay down beside the grain pile. Ruth quietly approached him, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
At nang si Booz ay makakain at makainom, at ang kaniyang puso'y maligayahan, siya'y yumaong nahiga sa dulo ng bunton ng trigo; at siya'y naparoong marahan, at inalisan ng takip ang kaniyang mga paa, at siya'y nahiga.
8 Around midnight Boaz suddenly woke up. Bending forward he was surprised to see a woman lying at his feet.
At nangyari, sa hating gabi, na ang lalake ay natakot at pumihit: at, narito, isang babae ay nakahiga sa kaniyang paanan.
9 “Who are you?” he asked. “I'm Ruth, your servant,” she replied. “Please spread the corner of your cloak over me, for you are my family redeemer.”
At sinabi niya, Sino ka? At siya'y sumagot, Ako'y si Ruth, na iyong lingkod: iladlad mo nga ang iyong kumot sa iyong lingkod; sapagka't ikaw ay malapit na kamaganak.
10 “May the Lord bless you, my daughter,” he said. “You are showing even more loyalty and love to the family than before. You haven't gone looking for a younger man, of whatever social status.
At kaniyang sinabi, Pagpalain ka nawa ng Panginoon, anak ko: ikaw ay nagpakita ng higit na kagandahang loob sa huli kay sa ng una, sa hindi mo pagsunod sa mga bagong tao maging sa dukha o sa mayaman.
11 So don't worry, my daughter. I will do everything you ask—everyone in town knows you are a woman of good character.
At ngayon, anak ko, huwag kang matakot; gagawin ko sa iyo ang lahat na iyong sinasabi, sapagka't buong bayan ng aking bayan ay nakakaalam na ikaw ay isang babaing may bait.
12 However, even though I'm one of your family redeemers, there's one who is more closely related than I am.
At tunay nga na ako'y kamaganak na malapit; gayon man ay may kamaganak na lalong malapit kay sa akin.
13 Stay here tonight, and in the morning if he wants to redeem you, then fine, let him do it. But if he doesn't, then I promise you in the name of the living Lord, I will redeem you. Lie down here until morning.”
Maghintay ka ngayong gabi, at mangyayari sa kinaumagahan, na kung kaniyang tutuparin sa iyo ang bahagi ng pagkakamaganak, ay mabuti; gawin niya ang bahagi ng pagkakamaganak: nguni't kundi niya gagawin ang bahagi ng pagkakamaganak sa iyo, ay gagawin ko nga ang bahagi ng pagkakamaganak sa iyo, kung paano ang Panginoon ay nabubuhay: mahiga ka nga hanggang kinaumagahan.
14 So Ruth lay at his feet until morning. Then she got up before it was light enough to recognize anyone because Boaz had told her, “No one must know that a woman came here to the threshing floor.”
At siya'y nahiga sa kaniyang paanan hanggang kinaumagahan: at siya'y bumangong maaga bago magkakilala ang isa't isa. Sapagka't kaniyang sinabi, Huwag maalaman na ang babae ay naparoon sa giikan.
15 He also told her, “Bring me the cloak you're wearing and hold it out.” So she held it out and he poured out six measures of barley into it. He helped her put it on her back and she went back to town.
At kaniyang sinabi, Dalhin mo rito ang balabal na nasa ibabaw mo at hawakan; at hinawakan niya; at siya'y tumakal ng anim na takal na sebada, at isinunong sa kaniya; at siya'y pumasok sa bayan.
16 Ruth went to her mother-in-law, who asked her, “How did it go for you, my daughter?” So Ruth told her everything that Boaz had done for her.
At nang siya'y pumaroon sa kaniyang biyanan, ay sinabi niya, Ano nga, anak ko? At isinaysay niya sa kaniya ang lahat na ginawa sa kaniya ng lalake.
17 “And he also gave me these six measures of barley,” she added. “He told me, ‘You mustn't go home to your mother-in-law empty-handed.’”
At sinabi niya, Ang anim na takal na sebadang ito ay ibinigay niya sa akin; sapagka't kaniyang sinabi, Huwag kang pumaroong walang dala sa iyong biyanan.
18 Naomi said to Ruth, “Wait patiently, my daughter, until you find out how it all works out. Boaz won't rest until he has it settled today.”
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi niya, Maupo kang tahimik, anak ko, hanggang sa iyong maalaman kung paanong kararatnan ng bagay: sapagka't ang lalaking yaon ay hindi magpapahinga, hanggang sa kaniyang matapos ang bagay sa araw na ito.
