< Ruth 2 >

1 And Na'omi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty, valiant man, of the family of Elimelech, whose name was Bo'az.
Alò Naomi te gen yon fanmi pwòch a mari li, yon nonm avèk anpil richès, ki sòti nan fanmi Élimélec, ki te rele Boaz.
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Na'omi, Let me go, I pray thee, into the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose eyes I shall find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter.
Ruth, Moabit la te di a Naomi: “Souple, kite mwen ale ranmase lòj pami tèt sereyal yo nan chan a sila ke mwen kapab twouve favè nan zye li.” Epi li te di l: “Ale fi mwen.”
3 And she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and the accident happened to her, that it was a part of the field belonging unto Bo'az, who was of the family of Elimelech.
Konsa, li te sòti pou te ale ranmase nan chan an apre moun rekòlt yo. Epi li te vin rive nan pòsyon chan ki te pou Boaz la, ki te manm fanmi Élimélec la.
4 And, behold, Bo'az came from Beth-lechem, and he said unto the reapers, The Lord be with you. And they said unto him, May the Lord bless thee.
Alò vwala, Boaz te sòti Bethléhem pou te di a moun rekòlt yo: “Ke SENYÈ a kapab avèk nou.” Epi yo te di li: “Ke SENYÈ a beni nou.”
5 Then said Bo'az unto his young man that was appointed over the reapers, Whose maiden is this?
Konsa, Boaz te di a sèvitè li ki te an chaj moun rekòlt yo: “Pou kilès jenn fanm sila a?”
6 And the young man that was appointed over the reapers answered and said, It is a Moabitish maiden that is returned with Na'omi out of the fields of Moab;
Sèvitè an chaj la te reponn: “Se jenn fanm Moabit ki te retounen avèk Naomi soti nan peyi Moab la.
7 And she said, Let me glean, I pray you, and gather among the sheaves after the reapers: so she came, and hath remained ever from the morning even until now; it is but a little while that she hath sat down in the house.
Li te di nou: ‘Souple, kite mwen ranmase e sanble apre moun rekòlt yo pami pakèt mwasonyè yo.’ Konsa, li te vini e te rete soti nan maten a jis rive koulye a, sòf ke li te chita nan kay la pou yon ti tan.”
8 Then said Bo'az unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go away from this; but keep close company with my own maidens.
Alò, Boaz te di a Ruth: “Koute byen fi mwen! Pa ale ranmase nan chan lòt moun. Anplis, pa kite chan sila a, men rete isit la avèk sèvant mwen yo.
9 Let thy eyes be on the field which they may reap, and go thou after them; behold, I have charged the young men that they shall not touch thee: and when thou art thirsty, go unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men may draw.
Kite zye ou rete sou chan ke yo rekòlte a e swiv yo. Vrèman, mwen te kòmande sèvitè mwen yo pou pa touche ou. Lè ou swaf, ale nan veso dlo yo pou bwè nan sa ke sèvitè yo rale.”
10 Thereupon she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in thy eyes, that thou shouldst take cognizance of me, seeing I am but a stranger?
Alò, li te tonbe sou figi li e te bese ba atè. Li te di l: “Poukisa mwen jwenn favè nan zye w konsa, pou ou ta wè m, paske se yon etranje ke mwen ye?”
11 But Bo'az answered and said unto her, It hath fully been told me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother-in-law after the death of thy husband; and how thou hast forsaken thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy birth, and art come unto a people which thou knewest not yesterday or the day before.
Boaz te reponn li: “Tout sa ke ou te fè pou bèlmè ou apre lanmò mari ou te deklare nèt a mwen menm; jan ou te kite papa ou avèk manman ou, peyi nesans ou e te vini a yon pèp ke ou pa t menm konnen oparavan.
12 May the Lord recompense thy work, and may thy reward be complete from the Lord the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to seek shelter.
Ke SENYÈ a kapab bay ou rekonpans pou travay sa a, e ke salè ou ki sòti nan SENYÈ a vin plen nèt; Li menm Bondye a Israël la, anba zèl a sila ou te vini mande refij la.”
13 Then said she, Let me find grace in thy eyes, my lord; for thou hast comforted me, and because thou hast spoken [kindly] unto the heart of thy handmaid, though I be not like one of thy handmaids.
Epi li te di: “Kite mwen jwenn favè nan zye ou, patwon mwen, paske ou te fè m jwenn konfò e vrèman te pale pawòl emab anvè sèvant ou, malgre mwen pa youn nan sèvant ou yo.”
14 And Bo'az said unto her, At mealtime come near hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she seated herself beside the reapers: and he reached her parched corn, and she ate, and was satisfied, and had some left.
Nan lè manje a, Boaz te di li: “Vin isit la, pou ou kapab manje nan pen an e fonse mòso pen ou an nan vinèg la.” Konsa li te chita akote moun rekòlt yo. Li te sèvi li sereyal boukannen; li te manje, te satisfè, epi te gen rès ki rete.
15 Then did she arise to glean: and Bo'az commanded his young men, saying, Even between the sheaves let her glean, and do not cause her to feel any shame;
Lè li te leve pou ale ranmase, Boaz te kòmande sèvitè li yo. Li te di: “Kite li ranmase menm pami pakèt yo, pa bay li pwoblèm.
16 And ye shall also draw out some for her from the bundles on purpose, and leave it, that she may glean it, and ye shall not rebuke her.
Anplis, nou va rale kèk nan pakèt yo eksprè e kite li la pou li kapab ranmase e pa repwoche l.”
17 So she gleaned in the field until the evening; and when she beat out what she had gleaned, it was about an ephah of barley.
Konsa Ruth te ranmase nan chan an jis rive nan aswè. Lè li te bat sa li te ranmase yo, li te anviwon yon efa lòj.
18 And she took it up, and she went into the city; and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought forth and gave to her what she had left over after she was satisfied.
Li te pran li e te lantre nan vil la pou bèlmè li te wè sa ke li te ranmase yo. Li anplis te rale bay Naomi sa ki te rete lè li menm te fin satisfè.
19 And her mother-in-law said unto her, Where hast thou gleaned today? and where hast thou wrought? may he that took cognizance of thee be blessed. And she told her mother-in-law with whom she had wrought, and said, The name of the man with whom I wrought today is Bo'az.
Bèlmè li te di li: “Kote ou te ranmase jodi a e kibò ou te travay? Pou sila ki te pran enterè nan ou yo kapab beni!” Konsa, li te di bèlmè li avèk ki moun li te travay, epi te di: “Non a mesye a avèk sila mwen te travay jodi a te Boaz.”
20 Then said Na'omi unto her daughter-in-law, Blessed be he unto the Lord, who hath not withheld his kindness from the living and from the dead. And Na'omi said unto her, The man is nearly related unto us, he is one of our next kinsmen.
Naomi te di bèlfi li: “Ke li menm kapab beni pa SENYÈ a ki pa t retire mizerikòd li sou vivan yo ak sou mò yo.” Ankò, Naomi te di a li: “Nonm nan se fanmi nou, li se youn nan fanmi pwòch nou yo.”
21 And Ruth the Moabitess said, He hath also said unto me, Thou shalt keep close company with my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.
Alò Ruth Moabit la te di, “Anplis, li te di mwen: ‘Ou dwe rete pre sèvitè mwen yo jiskaske yo fin fè rekòlt mwen.’”
22 Then said Na'omi unto Ruth her daughter-in-law, It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, and that men may not meet with thee in any other field.
Naomi te di a Ruth, bèlfi li a: “Sa bon pitit mwen pou ou sòti avèk sèvant li yo, pou kèk lòt moun pa vin tonbe sou ou nan yon lòt chan.”
23 So she kept close company with the maidens of Bo'az in gleaning until the end of the barley-harvest and of the wheat-harvest; and she dwelt with her mother-in-law.
Konsa li te rete pre sèvant Boaz yo pou ranmase jiska fen rekòlt lòj la avèk ble a. Epi li te rete lakay bèlmè li.
