Ruth 3
1 Naomi, her mother-in-law, said to her, “My daughter, should I not seek a place for you to rest, so that things may go well for you?
Potem ji je njena tašča Naomí rekla: »Moja hči, mar ne bom iskala počitka zate, da bo lahko dobro s teboj?
2 Now Boaz, the man whose young female workers you have been with, is he not our kinsman? Look, he will be winnowing barley tonight at the threshing floor.
Torej ali ni Boaz iz našega sorodstva, s čigar deklami si bila? Glej on nocoj veja ječmen na mlatišču.
3 Therefore, wash yourself, anoint yourself, put on your best clothes, and go down to the threshing floor. But do not make yourself known to the man until he finishes eating and drinking.
Umij se torej in se mazili in nase nadeni svoje oblačilo in pojdi dol do mlatišča. Toda ne daj se spoznati možu, dokler se ne bo najedel in napil.
4 But when he lies down, take notice of the place where he lies down so that later you can go to him, uncover his feet, and lie down there. Then he will tell you what to do.”
Zgodilo se bo, da ko se uleže, da si boš zapomnila prostor, kjer bo legel in vstopila boš in odkrila njegova stopala in se ulegla in on ti bo povedal kaj boš storila.«
5 Ruth said to Naomi, “I will do everything you say.”
Rekla ji je: »Vse, kar mi govoriš, bom storila.«
6 So she went down to the threshing floor, and she followed the instructions her mother-in-law had given her.
Odšla je dol k mlatišču in storila glede na vse, kar ji je njena tašča zaukazala.
7 When Boaz had eaten and drunk and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the pile of grain. Then she came softly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
Ko je Boaz jedel in pil in je bilo njegovo srce veselo, je odšel, da se uleže pri koncu kupa žita in ona je po tiho prišla in odkrila njegova stopala in se ulegla.
8 It came about at midnight that the man was startled. He turned over, and right there a woman was lying at his feet!
Pripetilo se je ob polnoči, da je bil mož prestrašen in se obrnil in glej, ženska leži pri njegovih stopalih.
9 He said, “Who are you?” She answered, “I am Ruth, your female servant. Spread your cloak over your female servant, for you are a near kinsman.”
Rekel je: »Kdo si?« Odgovorila je: »Jaz sem Ruta, tvoja pomočnica. Razširi torej krajec svoje obleke nad svojo pomočnico, kajti ti si bližnji sorodnik.«
10 Boaz said, “My daughter, may you be blessed by Yahweh. You have showed more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, because you have not gone after any of the young men, whether poor or rich.
Rekel je: »Blagoslovljena bodi od Gospoda, moja hči, kajti izkazala si več prijaznosti v zadnjem koncu kakor poprej v tem, da ne slediš za mladeniči, bodisi revnimi ali bogatimi.
11 Now, my daughter, do not be afraid! I will do for you all that you say, because all the city of my people knows that you are a worthy woman.
Sedaj, moja hči, ne boj se. Storil ti bom vse, kar zahtevaš, kajti vse mesto mojega ljudstva ve, da si vrla ženska.
12 It is true that I am a kinsman, but there is a kinsman nearer than I.
Sedaj je to resnica, da sem tvoj bližnji sorodnik, vendar obstaja sorodnik, ki je bližji kakor jaz.
13 Stay here tonight, and in the morning, if he will perform for you the duty of a kinsman, good, let him do the kinsman's duty. But if he will not do the duty of a kinsman for you, then I will do it, by the life of Yahweh. Lie down until the morning.”
Ostani to noč in zjutraj bo, da če ti bo on izpolnil delež sorodnika, dobro. Naj on stori sorodniški delež, toda če ti on ne bo storil sorodniškega deleža, potem ti bom jaz storil sorodniški delež, kakor živi Gospod. Lezi do jutra.«
14 So she lay at his feet until the morning. But she rose up before anyone could recognize another person. For Boaz had said, “Let it not be known that the woman came to the threshing floor.”
In pri njegovih stopalih je ležala do jutra. Vstala je, preden je kdo lahko prepoznal drugega. Rekel je: »Naj se ne izve, da je na mlatišče prišla ženska.«
15 Then Boaz said, “Bring your shawl and hold it out.” When she did so, he measured six large measures of barley into it and put the load on her. Then he went into the city.
Prav tako je rekel: »Prinesi zagrinjalo, ki ga imaš na sebi in ga drži.« Ko ga je držala, ji je odmeril šest meric ječmena in ga naložil nanjo in odšla je v mesto.
16 When Ruth came to her mother-in-law, she said, “How did you do, my daughter?” Then Ruth told her all that the man had done for her.
Ko je prišla k svoji tašči, je ta rekla: »Kdo si, moja hči?« In povedala ji je vse, kar ji je storil mož.
17 She said, “These six measures of barley are what he gave me, for he said, 'Do not go empty to your mother-in-law.'”
Rekla ji je: »Dal mi je teh šest meric ječmena, kajti rekel mi je: ›Ne pojdi prazna k svoji tašči.‹«
18 Then Naomi said, “Stay here, my daughter, until you know how the matter will turn out, for the man will not rest until he has finished this thing today.”
Potem ji je ona rekla: »Mirno sedi, moja hči, dokler ne izveš, kako se bo stvar obrnila, kajti mož ne bo počival, dokler danes ne dokonča te stvari.«
