< Ruth 2 >

1 And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of valour, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.
Tun hiche Bethlehem ahin mihaotah leh mithuneitah khat amin Boaz kitipa chu ana ummin amachu Naomi jipa Elimelech sopi anahi.
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi: 'Let me now go to the field, and glean among the ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find favour.' And she said unto her: 'Go, my daughter.'
Nikhat hi Moab numeinu Ruth chun Naomi kommah, “Keima hi neisollin lang chang-at ho lah a che ing kating, koi hijong leh khotona einei poupou kom’ah changkhai gahol tange,” ati. Hichun Naomi chun ajah a “Chanu, che jeng in,” ati.
3 And she went, and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and her hap was to light on the portion of the field belonging unto Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
Hitichun Ruth chu akipatdoh in chang-at ho nung langa chun achen, changkhai ho chu achom pan tan ahi. Hitia changkhai achomna loilai chu atehpu Elimelech sopipa Boaz loulai ana hikha in ahi.
4 And, behold, Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said unto the reapers: 'The LORD be with you.' And they answered him: 'The LORD bless thee.'
Hitia changkhai ana kichom laipet tah chun Boaz chu Bethlehem’a kon in ahung in “Pakaiyin naumpiu hen,” atin, amahon jong “Pakaiyin phatthei naboh hen” atiuve.
5 Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers: 'Whose damsel is this?'
Hichun aman tohvaihompa kom’ah chun, “Hichea numei khangdong nukhu koiham? tia adoh leh,
6 And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said: 'It is a Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the field of Moab;
Tohvaihompan ahin donbutnin, “Amanu khu Moab Numei Naomi toh hung kinungle khom numei chu ahi,” ati.
7 and she said: Let me glean, I pray you, and gather after the reapers among the sheaves; so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, save that she tarried a little in the house.'
“Amanu hin tujingkah chun chang-at ho nung langa akhaiho hi kaki donkhom thei ding ham tin eina dongin ahi. Chomkhatcha jong touthim manlouvin anatoh ding toh nan akisalal lheh jeng e,” tin adonbut’in ahi.
8 Then said Boaz unto Ruth: 'Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither pass from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens.
Hichun Boaz chu Ruth kommah chun achen ajah a, “Ngaijin kachanu, changkhai nakihol sung hin keiho kom’ah um jeng in, koima dang louva che hih in, kalouva natong numeiho nunga hin um jeng in,” ati.
9 Let thine eyes be on the field that they do reap, and go thou after them; have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch thee? and when thou art athirst, go unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have drawn.'
Achang at namun u melchih in lang chule anung’u jui jeng in, gollhang hohin nadeichatvei louna diuva keiman kagihsal ahitai. Nadang achah teng tuikulla konna agadop’u tuikhu don jeng in,” atipeh tan ahi.
10 Then she fell on her face, and bowed down to the ground, and said unto him: 'Why have I found favour in thy sight, that thou shouldest take cognizance of me, seeing I am a foreigner?'
Ruth chun akengphang’a abohkhup jeng in hiti hin kipathu aseije, “Keima hila gam chommi kahin, i-atileh hibang lomma hi neikhoto hitam?” ati.
11 And Boaz answered and said unto her: 'It hath fully been told me, all that thou hast done unto 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 unto a people that thou knewest not heretofore.
Boaz in adobutnin, “Ken nangma kahenai,” ati, “chujongle najipa athijouva nung’a nangin ichangeiya natehpi khohsahna neitah anahin jen hitam, chujong leh i-changeija nagam leiset anu leh napa nahin dalhah a gam chombeh miho lah a hi nahung chenkhompi jeng ham tijong kahei,
12 The LORD recompense thy work, and be thy reward complete from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to take refuge.'
Alhaving noija nahung kipehlutna Israel Pakai Pathen chun nathilphabol hojeh hin phattheina lhingset’in phattheina nape tahen,” ati.
13 Then she said: 'Let me find favour in thy sight, my LORD; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken to the heart of thy handmaid, though I be not as one of thy handmaidens.'
Ruth in “Hepu kachunga nalunglhaina um jingta hen, nana tongho lah a khat jeng jong kahilou vang'in, nang in khotona neitah in thu naseiyin neilhamon’e,” ati.
14 And Boaz said unto her at meal-time: 'Come hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar.' And she sat beside the reapers; and they reached her parched corn, and she did eat and was satisfied, and left thereof.
Sun-an nehphatnin Boaz in amanu chu akouvin, “Hilanga hung in lang bu hung nen, nachang lhah chu lengpi thei twi lah'a hin sulut’in lang nen,” ati. Hitichun Ruth chu chang at holah’a chun atouvin ahileh, Boaz in anehding changlhah apen, amanjong aoiva set anen, aneh moh themkhat jong jong anei nalai in ahi.
15 And when she was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying: 'Let her glean even among the sheaves, and put her not to shame.
Ruth chu natonga akilekit phatnin, Boaz in agollhang ho chu thu apen, amanu hi jada hih un, nalah uva changvui chu kilo khomsah un,” ati.
16 And also pull out some for her of purpose from the bundles, and leave it, and let her glean, and rebuke her not.'
“Sakol changvui ho chu alomlah akon’in ladoh unlang amanun akiloding gunset in selhah peh jeng un, hichu kilhensah unlang sugenthei hih un,” ati.
17 So she gleaned in the field until even; and she beat out that which she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.
Hitichun Ruth in nilhum keijin chang chu akidon khommin achangho chu ajeplhah phatnin abong chu adimset tai.
18 And she took it up, and went 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 left after she was satisfied.
Amanun hichu khopi sunga atehpi kom’ah apolut’in avetsah in achanglhah nehmoh akhenpeh jong chu apen tan ahi.
19 And her mother-in-law said unto her: 'Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where wroughtest thou? blessed be he that did take knowledge of 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’in, “Chang hijat pihi hoilanga nagalo khom ham? Pakaiyin nahin kithopipa hi phattheiboh hen!” ati. Hichun Ruth nin atehpi kom’ah chun changkhai aga kidonna louneipa thu chu aseipeh tan ahi. Tuni kagatoh na louneipa chu Boaz ahi, ati.
20 And Naomi said unto her daughter-in-law: 'Blessed be he of the LORD, who hath not left off His kindness to the living and to the dead.' And Naomi said unto her: 'The man is nigh of kin unto us, one of our near kinsmen.'
“Amachu Pathen’in phattheiboh hen” atin, Naomi’n amounu jah’a chun hitin aseipeh tai “Aman hitobang khotona anei hi eini chung’a ahin, chule najipa chung’a ahi. Amapahi i-insung’u kiledohsah thei ikinaipi pen khatnu chu ahi,” ati.
21 And Ruth the Moabitess said: 'Yea, he said unto me: Thou shalt keep fast by my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.'
Ruth’in aseibe in, “Boaz’in hungkit’in lang chang-at hi akichai kahsen, changvo ho lah a hi kaum khom jing nadiuvin eiseipeh in ahi,” ati.
22 And Naomi said unto Ruth her daughter-in-law: 'It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, and that thou be not met in any other field.'
Naomi’n, “Aphai, kachanu aman naseipeh bang bang hin chonnin, hiche chang at-hi akichai kahsen anungah holah a chun um'in, loumun danga che hih in, min nadei chatvei thei ahin ama louva vang hi imacha tilou ding ahi,” atipeh e.
23 So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and she dwelt with her mother-in-law.
Hitichun Ruth jong Boaz loulai achun sakol chang-at kichai kahse chun anumei houtoh atongkhom’in, changkhai chu akilokhom’in ahi. Chuleh sakol chang leh suhlou chang-at kichai kahsen changkhai akichomtai, hiche sungse hin, ama atehpitoh aum khom jing jing in ahi.
