Ruth 2
1 Now, Naomi, had an acquaintance of her husband’s, a man of great integrity, of the family of Elimelech, —whose 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 go, I pray thee, to the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose eyes I may find favour. And she said to 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 So she went her way, and came, and gleaned in the field, after the reapers, —and it happened to her, to light upon the portion of field-land belonging to 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 lo! Boaz coming from Bethlehem, and he said to the reapers, Yahweh, be with you! and they said to him, Yahweh 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 to his young man, that was set over the reapers, —Whose is this maiden?
Boazi atunaki mokambi ya bato oyo bakataka ble: — Elenge mwasi wana azali ya nani?
6 And the young man that was set over the reapers answered and said, —The Moabitish maiden, is she who came back with Naomi, out of the country 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 thee, and gather among the sheaves, after the reapers; so she came in, and hath continued from that time, all the morning until just now, and hath not rested in the house, for a little.
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 And Boaz said unto Ruth—Hearest thou not, my daughter? Do not go to glean in any other field, neither indeed shalt thou pass on, from hence, —but, here, shalt thou keep 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 thine eyes, be on the field which they shall reap, and go thou after them, Have I not commanded the young men, that they touch thee not? And, when thou art athirst, then go unto the vessels, and drink of what the young men shall draw.
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 upon her face, and bowed herself to the ground, —and said unto him—Wherefore have I found favour in thine eyes, that thou shouldest take notice of me, seeing that, I, am, a stranger?
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 to her, It hath 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 come unto a people whom thou knewest not, aforetime.
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 Yahweh recompense thy deed, —and let thy reward be full from Yahweh, the God of Israel, unto whom thou hast come to take refuge under his wings.
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 And she said—Let me find favour in thine eyes, my lord, for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken unto the heart of thy handmaid, —though, I, be not as, one of thine own 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 to her at mealtime—Draw nigh hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. So she sat beside the reapers, and there was reached to her parched corn, and she did eat and was satisfied, and left thereof remaining.
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 rose up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying—Even between the sheaves, let her glean, and reproach her not;
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 yea moreover, draw out, for her, from the bundles, —and leave behind that she may glean it, 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 the evening, —and beat out that which she had gleaned, and there 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 came into the city, and, when her mother-in-law had seen what she had gleaned, she brought forth and gave her what had been left remaining, after that 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 to her—In what place hast thou gleaned, today? and where hast thou wrought? May he that took notice of thee, be blessed! So she told her mother-in-law, with whom she had wrought, and said—The name of the man with whom I wrought today, 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 Then said Naomi, to her daughter-in-law—Blessed, be he of Yahweh, who hath not left off his lovingkindness to the living, and to the dead. And Naomi said to her—Near to us, is the man, of our own kinsmen, is he!
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 for he said unto me—By my young men, shalt thou keep fast, 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, —Good, is it, my daughter, that thou go forth with his maidens, and that they meet thee not, 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, until the end of the barley harvest, and the wheat harvest, —and 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.
