Ruth 3
1 Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, "My daughter, shall I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?
Na ka mea a Naomi, tona hungawai ki a ia, Kaua ianei ahau e rapu i te okiokinga mou, e taku tamahine, e puta mai ai te pai ki a koe?
2 Now isn't Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens you were? Look, he winnows barley tonight at the threshing floor.
Ehara ianei i te whanaunga no taua a Poaha nana nei aua kotiro, ou hoa na? Nana, ko a tenei po ia whakarererere ai i te papapa o te parei i te patunga witi.
3 Therefore wash yourself, anoint yourself, and put on your clothes, and go down to the threshing floor, but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.
Na horoia koe, ka whakawahi i a koe, ka kakahu ai i ou kakahu, ka haere ki raro, ki te patunga witi; kaua ia koe e whakaaturia ki taua tangata, a mutu noa tana kai, tana inu.
4 It shall be, when he lies down, that you shall notice the place where he lies, and you shall go in, and uncover his feet, and lie down; then he will tell you what you shall do."
A ka takoto ia, na me titiro koe ki te wahi e takoto ai ia; a ka haere atu, ka hura i nga kakahu o ona waewae, ka takoto; ko reira ia whakaatu ai ki a koe i tau e mea ai.
5 She said to her, "All that you say I will do."
Na ka mea tera ki a ia, Maku e mea nga mea katoa i korerotia mai na e koe ki ahau.
6 She went down to the threshing floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law told her.
Na ko tona haerenga ki raro, ki te patunga witi, meatia ana e ia nga mea katoa i whakahaua e tona hungawai ki a ia.
7 When Boaz had eaten and drank, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. She came quietly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
Na ka kai a Poaha, ka inu, a hari ana tona ngakau, a ka haere, ka takoto ki te pito o te puranga: na ko te ata haerenga o tera, hurahia ana nga kakahu o ona waewae, na kua takoto.
8 It happened at midnight, that the man was startled and turned over; and look, a woman lay at his feet.
A, i waenganui po ka oho te mauri o taua tangata, ka tahuri ia: na, he wahine e takoto ana i ona waewae.
9 He said, "Who are you?" She answered, "I am Ruth your handmaid. Therefore spread the corner of your garment over your handmaid; for you are a redeeming kinsman."
Na ka mea ia, Ko wai koe? a ka mea ake tera, Ko Rutu ahau, ko tau pononga wahine: na uhia iho te pito o tou ki tau pononga; he whanaunga tupu hoki koe.
10 He said, "Blessed are you by Jehovah, my daughter. You have shown more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, inasmuch as you didn't follow young men, whether poor or rich.
Na ka mea ia, Kia manaakitia koe e Ihowa, e taku tamahine; nui atu hoki i to te timatanga tou aroha o te whakamutunga, i a koe kihai nei i aru i nga taitama, i te mea rawakore, i te mea whai taonga ranei.
11 Now, my daughter, do not be afraid; I will do to you all that you say; for all the city of my people does know that you are a worthy woman.
Na kaua e wehi, e taku tamahine; ka meatia e ahau ki a koe au mea katoa i ki mai ai; e mohio ana hoki te pa katoa o toku iwi he wahine koe e uaua ana ki te pai.
12 Now it is true that I am a redeeming kinsman; however there is a redeemer closer than I am.
Na he tika ano, he whanaunga tupu ahau noa; otiia tena ano tetahi e tata rawa ana i ahau.
13 Stay this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will perform for you the part of a redeemer, well; let him do the redeemer's part. But if he will not do the part of a redeemer for you, then I will do the part of a redeemer for you, as Jehovah lives. Lie down until the morning."
Takoto marie i tenei po; a i te ata ki te whakawhanaunga ia ki a koe, he tika, mana te tikanga whanaunga; ki te kahore ia e pai mana te tikanga o te whanaunga ki a koe, na maku te tikanga whanaunga ki a koe; e ora ana a Ihowa. Ata takoto, kia ta ea ra ano te ata.
14 She lay at his feet until the morning. She rose up before one could discern another. For he said, "Let it not be known that the woman came to the threshing floor."
Na takoto tonu ia ki ona waewae a taea noatia te ata; a ka maranga, i te mea e kore te tangata e kite i tona hoa. Na ka mea tera, Kei mohiotia i haere mai he wahine ki te patunga witi.
15 He said, "Bring the cloak that is on you, and hold it." She held it; and he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her; and he went into the city.
I mea ano ia, Tena koa te koroka i runga i a koe na, puritia mai. Na puritia ana e ia. Na ka mehuatia atu etahi parei e ia, e ono nga mehua: a whakawaha atu ana ki a ia; na haere ana ia ki te pa.
16 When she came to her mother-in-law, she said, "How did it go, my daughter?" She told her all that the man had done to her.
A, no tona taenga ki tona hungawai, ka mea tera, Kei te pehea koe, e taku tamahine? Na korerotia ana e ia ki a ia nga mea katoa i mea ai taua tangata ki a ia.
17 She said, "He gave me these six measures of barley; for he said to me, 'Do not go empty-handed to your mother-in-law.'"
I mea ano ia, Ko enei mehua parei e ono i homai e ia ki ahau; i mea hoki ki ahau, Kei haere kau koe ki tou hungawai.
18 Then she said, "Wait, my daughter, until you know how the matter will fall; for the man will not rest, until he has finished the thing this day."
Na ka mea tera, Ata noho, e taku tamahine, kia mohiotia ra ano e koe te tukunga iho o tenei mea: e kore hoki e mutu ta taua tangata, kia oti ra ano tenei mea i a ia aianei.
