Ruth 2
1 Then Naomis husband had a kinsman, one of great power of the familie of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.
Naomi srɔ̃, Elimelek nɔviŋutsu aɖe nɔ Betlehem, ame si ŋkɔe nye Boaz, eye wònye kesinɔtɔ gã aɖe.
2 And Ruth ye Moabitesse said vnto Naomi, I pray thee, Let mee goe to the fielde, and gather eares of corne after him, in whose sight I finde fauour. And she said vnto her, Goe my daughter.
Gbe ɖeka la, Rut gblɔ na Naomi be, “Medi be mayi dɔmenyotɔ aɖe ƒe agble ne mafɔ nuku si nuxalawo gblẽ ɖi la va aƒe me.” Naomi gblɔ be, “Enyo; heyi.”
3 And she went, and came and gleaned in the fielde after the reapers, and it came to passe, that she met with the portion of the fielde of Boaz, who was of the familie of Elimelech.
Ale Rut yi. Nukutɔe la, agble si me wòyi la nye Boaz, ame si nye Naomi srɔ̃, Elimelek ƒe ƒometɔ la tɔ.
4 And behold, Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and saide vnto the reapers, The Lord be with you: and they answered him, The Lord blesse thee.
Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, Boaz tso Betlehem va agble la, eye wòdo gbe na dɔwɔlawo be, “Yehowa nanɔ anyi kpli mi!” Woɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa nayra wò!”
5 Then saide Boaz vnto his seruant that was appointed ouer the reapers, Whose maide is this?
Boaz bia eƒe dɔwɔlawo dzi kpɔla be, “Ɖetugbi kae nye ema?”
6 And the seruant that was appointed ouer the reapers, answered, and said, It is the Moabitish maide, that came with Naomi out of the countrey of Moab:
Dzikpɔla la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɖetugbi si tso Moabnyigba dzi va kple lɔ̃xoa, Naomi lae.
7 And shee saide vnto vs, I pray you, let mee gleane and gather after the reapers among the sheaues: so shee came, and hath continued from that time in the morning vnto now, saue that she taried a litle in the house.
Ebia mɔm ŋdi sia be yeafɔ nuku siwo ge le nuku bablawo me, eye esia dzi ko wòle tso ŋdi ke, fifia koe wòle ɖiɖim ɖe eme vie le vɔvɔli ma te.”
8 Then said Boaz vnto Ruth, Hearest thou, my daughter? goe to none other fielde to gather, neither goe from hence: but abide here by my maydens.
Boaz gblɔ na Rut be, “Vinye, ɖo tom; mègayi ɖafɔ nuku siwo nuxalawo gblẽ ɖi la le agble bubu aɖeke me o, eye mègadzo le afi sia hã o. Lé ɖokuiwò ɖe nye dɔlanyɔnuwo ŋu.
9 Let thine eyes be on the field that they do reape, and goe thou after the maidens. Haue I not charged the seruants, that they touche thee not? Moreouer whe thou art a thirst, go vnto ye vessels, and drinke of that which ye seruants haue drawen.
Lé ŋku ɖe afi si ŋutsuawo le nuku xam le la ŋu, eye nàdze nye dɔlanyɔnuwo yome. Mede se na ŋutsuawo be womaɖe fu aɖeke na wò o, eye ne tsikɔ le wuwòm la, yi nàku tsi le ze siwo me ŋutsuawo ku tsi ɖo la me nàno.”
10 Then shee fell on her face, and bowed her selfe to the ground, and said vnto him, How haue I found fauour in thine eyes, that thou shouldest know me, seeing I am a stranger?
Nya siawo sese na Rut de ta agu, tsyɔ mo anyi, eye wògblɔ be, “Nu kae na nètsɔ ɖe le nye nya me? Nu ka ta nève amedzro aɖe nu ale ɖo?”
11 And Boaz answered, and said vnto her, All is told and shewed me that thou hast done vnto thy mother in lawe, since the death of thine husband, and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and ye land where thou wast borne, and art come vnto a people which thou knewest not in time past.
Boaz ɖo eŋu be, “Mese nu siwo katã nèwɔ na lɔ̃xowò tso esime srɔ̃a ku. Menya nu tso ale si nègblẽ fofowò, dawò kple mia de ɖi kple ale si nèva le ame siwo mènya tsã o dome la ŋu.
12 The Lord recompense thy worke, and a ful reward be giuen thee of the Lord God of Israel, vnder whose wings thou art come to trust.
Yehowa naɖo nyui si nèwɔ la teƒe na wò. Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si gbɔ nèva le sitsoƒe dim le la naɖo eteƒe na wò.”
13 Then she saide, Let me finde fauour in thy sight, my lord: for thou hast comforted mee, and spoken comfortably vnto thy mayde, though I be not like to one of thy maydes.
Rut ɖo eŋu be, “Akpe na wò, nye aƒetɔ. Èkpɔ nublanui nam ŋutɔ, èna nye dzi dze eme ɖe ale si nèƒo nu nam lɔlɔ̃tɔe ta, togbɔ be nyemede wò subɔla aɖeke nu o hã.”
14 And Boaz said vnto her, At the meale time come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dippe thy morsell in the vineger. And she sate beside the reapers, and hee reached her parched corne: and shee did eate, and was sufficed, and left thereof.
Le ŋdɔnuɖuɣi la, Boaz yɔ Rut, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Va nàɖu nu kpli mí.” Rut nɔ dɔwɔlawo dome heɖu nu kpli wo ɖi ƒodo nyuie, eye nuɖuɖu si wonae la ƒe ɖe gasusɔ.
15 And when she arose to gleane, Boaz commanded his seruants, saying, Let her gather among the sheaues, and doe not rebuke her.
Esi wògayi nukua fɔfɔ dzi la, Boaz gblɔ na nuxalawo be woana wòafɔ nukuawo le bablawo me, eye womegaxe mɔ nɛ kura o.
16 Also let fall some of the sheaues for her, and let it lie, that she may gather it vp, and rebuke her not.
Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, woalũ nuku aɖewo tso nuku babla me ada ɖe eŋgɔ be wòafɔ, eye womegabia nya aɖekee o.
17 So she gleaned in the fielde vntill euening, and she thresshed that shee had gathered, and it was about an Ephah of barly.
Ale Rut fɔ nuku siwo ge ɖe agblea dzi la va se ɖe fiẽ. Emegbe la, enyɔ lu siwo wòfɔ ƒo ƒu la, eye eƒe dzidzeme anɔ lita blaeve-vɔ-eve.
18 And she tooke it vp, and went into the citie, and her mother in law saw what she had gathered: Also she tooke foorth, and gaue to her that which she had reserued, when she was sufficed.
Rut tsɔ lu la yi dua me, eye lɔ̃xoa kpɔ esi sinu wòte ŋu fɔ. Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, Rut he nuɖuɖu si wòɖu la ƒe susɔe ɖe go, eye wòtsɔe nɛ.
19 Then her mother in lawe saide vnto her, Where hast thou gleaned to day? and where wroughtest thou? blessed be he, that knewe thee. And she shewed her mother in lawe, with whome she had wrought, and saide, The mans name, with whom I wrought to day, is Boaz.
Lɔ̃xoa biae be, “Afi ka tututue nèfɔ nuku le egbea? Afi ka nèwɔ dɔ le egbea? Woayra ŋutsu si ve nuwò alea!” Ale Rut gblɔ ame si ƒe agble me wòwɔ dɔ le la na lɔ̃xoa. Egblɔ nɛ be, “Ŋutsu si gbɔ mewɔ dɔ le egbe la ƒe ŋkɔe nye Boaz.”
20 And Naomi said vnto her daughter in law, Blessed be he of the Lord: for he ceaseth not to doe good to the liuing and to the dead. Againe Naomi saide vnto her, The man is neere vnto vs, and of our affinitie.
Naomi gblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvia be, “Yehowa neyrae! Medzudzɔ agbagbeawo kple kukuawo nu veve kpɔ o. Ŋutsu la nye míaƒe ƒometɔ ŋutɔŋutɔ, eye wònye ƒometɔ siwo wòle be woakpɔ mía dzi la dometɔ ɖeka.”
21 And Ruth the Moabitesse said, He said also certainely vnto mee, Thou shalt be with my seruants, vntill they haue ended all mine haruest.
Rut, Moab nyɔnu la yi edzi be, “Egblɔ nam gɔ̃ hã be magava, eye manɔ nuxalawo yome kplikplikpli va se ɖe esime woawu nukuawo xaxa le agble blibo la me nu.”
22 And Naomi answered vnto Ruth her daughter in lawe, It is best, my daughter, that thou goe out with his maides, that they meete thee not in an other fielde.
Naomi gblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvia Rut be, “Vinyenyɔnu, anyo na wò be nànɔ eƒe nyɔnuviwo ŋu, elabena ne èyi ame bubu aɖe ƒe agble me la, ɖewohĩ woava wɔ nuvevi wò.”
23 Then she kept her by the maides of Boaz, to gather vnto the end of barly haruest, and of wheate haruest, and dwelt with her mother in lawe.
Ale Rut lé eɖokui ɖe Boaz ƒe dɔlanyɔnuwo ŋu henɔ nukuwo fɔm va se ɖe esime lu kple ƒo ŋeɣi wu enu, eye wònɔ lɔ̃xoa gbɔ.
