< Ruth 2 >

1 And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband’s, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.
Naomi ní ìbátan kan láti ìdílé Elimeleki ọkọ rẹ̀, aláàánú ọlọ́rọ̀, ẹni tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Boasi.
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
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 And she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers: and her hap was to light on a part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the kindred 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 And, behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, The LORD be with you. And they answered him, 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 said Boaz to his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose damsel is this?
Boasi sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ olórí àwọn olùkórè wí pé, “Ti ta ni ọ̀dọ́mọbìnrin yẹn?”
6 And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab:
Ìránṣẹ́ tí ó jẹ́ olórí àwọn olùkórè náà sì fèsì pé, “Ọ̀dọ́mọbìnrin ará Moabu tí ó tẹ̀lé Naomi wá láti ilẹ̀ Moabu ni.
7 And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves: so she came, and has continued even from the morning until now, that she tarried a little in the house.
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 Then said Boaz to Ruth, Hear you not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens:
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 Let your eyes be on the field that they do reap, and go you after them: have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch you? and when you are thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have drawn.
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 Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, Why have I found grace in your eyes, that you should take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger?
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 And Boaz answered and said to her, It has fully been showed me, all that you have done to your mother in law since the death of your husband: and how you have left your father and your mother, and the land of your nativity, and are come to a people which you knew not heretofore.
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 The LORD recompense your work, and a full reward be given you of the LORD God of Israel, under whose wings you are come to trust.
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 Then she said, Let me find favor in your sight, my lord; for that you have comforted me, and for that you have spoken friendly to your handmaid, though I be not like to one of your handmaidens.
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 And Boaz said to her, At mealtime come you here, and eat of the bread, and dip your morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers: and he reached her parched corn, and she did eat, and was sufficed, and left.
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 And when she was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and reproach her not:
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 And let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them, that she may glean them, and rebuke her not.
Bí kò ṣe pé kí ẹ mú lára àwọn ìtí sílẹ̀ fún láti ṣá, kí ẹ má sì ṣe ba a wí.”
17 So she gleaned in the field until even, and beat out that she had gleaned: and it was about an ephah of barley.
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 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 she had reserved after she was sufficed.
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 And her mother in law said to her, Where have you gleaned to day? and where worked you? blessed be he that did take knowledge of you. And she showed her mother in law with whom she had worked, and said, The man’s name with whom I worked to day is 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 And Naomi said to her daughter in law, Blessed be he of the LORD, who has not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said to her, The man is near of kin to us, one of our next kinsmen.
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 And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, You shall keep fast by my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.
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 And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter in law, It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, that they meet you not in any other field.
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 she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean to the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and dwelled with her mother in law.
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.
