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.
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 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.'
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 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.
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 Beth-lehem, and said unto the reapers: 'The LORD be with you.' And they answered him: 'The LORD 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 Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers: 'Whose damsel 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 a Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the field 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: 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.'
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 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.
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 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.'
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 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?'
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 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.
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 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.'
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 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.'
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 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.
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 was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying: 'Let her glean even among the sheaves, and put her not to shame.
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 also pull out some for her of purpose from the bundles, and leave it, and let her glean, and rebuke her not.'
Bokoki mpe kokweyisa bambuma mpo na ye, mpo ete alokota na ye, mpe bozomela ye te. »
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.
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 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.
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 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 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 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.'
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: 'Yea, he said unto me: Thou shalt keep fast by 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 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 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 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.
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.
