Ruth 3
1 Then said Na'omi her mother-in-law unto her, My daughter, behold I will seek for thee a resting-place, where it may be well with thee.
Gaaf tokko Naaʼomiin haati dhirsa ishee akkana isheedhaan jette; “Yaa intala ko, ani akka ati itti boqottuuf mana mijaaʼaa siif barbaaduu hin qabuu?
2 And now, behold, Bo'az is our kinsman, he with whose maidens thou hast been. Lo, he is winnowing the barley to-night in the threshing-floor.
Boʼeez namichi ati tajaajiltoota isaa dubarran sana wajjin turte sun fira keenya mitii? Inni edana oobdiitti garbuu qulleeffata.
3 Therefore bathe, and anoint thyself, and put thy garments upon thee, and go down to the threshing-floor; [but] make thyself not known unto the man, until he shall have finished eating and drinking.
Kanaafuu dhidhiqadhuutii shittoo dibadhu; uffata kee isa bareedaa illee uffadhu. Ergasiis gara oobdichaa dhaqi; inni garuu hamma nyaatee dhugee raawwatutti akka ati achi jirtu hin beekin.
4 And it shall be, when he lieth down, that thou shalt note the place where he will lie, and thou shalt then go in, and lift up the covering that is on his feet, and lay thyself down: and he will tell thee what thou shalt do.
Yeroo inni rafutti iddoo inni rafe hubadhu. Ergasii dhaqiitii wayyaa miilla isaa irraa saaqii ciisi. Innis waan ati gochuu qabdu sitti hima.”
5 And she said unto her, All that thou sayest unto me will I do.
Ruutis, “Ani waan ati jettu hunda nan godha” jettee deebifte.
6 And she went down unto the threshing-floor, and did in accordance with all that her mother-in-law had commanded her.
Kanaafuu Ruut gara oobdii sanaatti gad buutee waan haati dhirsa ishee godhi jetteen hundumaa goote.
7 And Bo'az ate and drank, and his heart became merry; and he then went in to lie down at the end of the heap of corn: and she came in softly, and lifted up the covering that was on his feet, and laid herself down.
Boʼeezis erga nyaatee dhugee gammadee booddee achi fagaatee tuulaa midhaanii bira rafuu dhaqe. Ruutis suuta jettee dhaqxee miilla isaa irraa wayyaa saaqxee rafte.
8 And it came to pass at midnight, that the man became terrified, and bent himself forward; and, behold, a woman was lying at his feet.
Halkan walakkaatti wanni tokko namicha rifachiise; innis yommuu of irra garagalee ilaaletti dubartii miilla isaa jala ciiftu tokko arge.
9 And he said, Who art thou? And she said, I am Ruth thy handmaid: spread therefore thy skirt over thy handmaid; for thou art a near kinsman.
Innis, “Ati eenyu?” jedhee gaafate. Isheenis, “Ana Ruut tajaajiltuu kee ti. Ati sababii na dhaaluuf fira dhiʼoo taateef handaara wayyaa keetii narra buusi” jetteen.
10 And he said, Blessed be thou unto the Lord, my daughter; for thou hast shown more kindness in the last instance than the first, by not going after the young men, whether they be poor or rich.
Innis deebisee akkana jedheen; “Yaa intala too, Waaqayyo si haa eebbisu; arjummaan kun arjummaa ati kanaan dura goote sana caala; ati dargaggeessa yookaan sooressa yookaan hiyyeessa faana hin deemneetii.
11 And now, my daughter, fear not: all that thou mayest say will I do for thee; for all [the men in] the gate of my people know that thou art a virtuous woman.
Ammas yaa intala koo hin sodaatin. Ani waan ati gaafattu hunda siif nan godha. Sabni magaalaa koo keessa jiraatu hundi akka ati dubartii amala gaarii qabdu taate ni beeka.
12 And now, it is indeed true that I am thy near kinsman; nevertheless, there is a kinsman nearer than I.
Akka ani fira dhiʼoo taʼe beekamaa dha; taʼus namni dhaaluudhaaf ana caalaa fira dhiʼoo taʼe jira.
13 Remain here this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will redeem thee, well, let him redeem; but if he be not willing to redeem thee, then will I redeem thee, as the Lord liveth: lie still until the morning.
Asuma buli; bori ganama namichi yoo si dhaaluu barbaade gaarii dha; inni si haa dhaalu. Yoo inni si dhaaluu hin barbaanne garuu dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, ani sin dhaala. Hamma lafti bariitutti asuma ciisi.”
14 And she lay at his feet until the morning; and she rose up before one could know another. And he said, It must not be known that this woman came into the threshing-floor.
Kanaafuu isheen hamma lafti bariitutti miilla isaa jala ciifte; garuu utuu namni tokko iyyuu hin beekin dursitee kaate; Boʼeez, “Dubartiin gara oobdii kanaa dhufuun ishee beekamuu hin qabu” jedheeraatii.
15 Also he said, Bring hither the cloak that thou hast upon thee, and lay hold of it. And she laid hold of it, and he measured six [measures] of barley, and laid it on her, and went into the city.
Akkasumas, “Wayyaa irraan uffatte ofi irraa fuudhii diriirsii qabi” jedheen. Isheenis ni diriirsite; inni garbuu safartuu jaʼa safaree ishee baachise. Ergasiis gara magaalaatti deebite.
16 And she came to her mother-in-law, and she said, How is it with thee, my daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.
Yommuu Ruut gara haadha dhirsa isheetti deebitetti Naaʼomiin, “Yaa intala ko, wanni sun akkam taʼe?” jettee ishee gaafatte. Isheenis waan Boʼeez isheef godhe hunda itti himte;
17 And she said, These six measures of barley gave he unto me; for he said to me, Thou shalt not come empty to thy mother-in-law.
itti dabaltees, “‘Gara haadha dhirsa keetti harka duwwaa hin deebiʼin’ jedhee garbuu safartuu jaʼaa kana naa kenne” jetteen.
18 Then said she, Remain still, my daughter, until thou know how the matter will fall out; for the man will not rest, until he have finished the matter this day.
Naaʼomiin immoo, “Yaa intala ko, hamma waan dhufu argitutti obsi. Namichi hamma dubbiin kun harʼa fala argatutti hin boqotu” isheedhaan jette.
