Ruth 2
1 And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name [was] Boaz.
Ma Naomi nwere otu nwanne di ya, onye bara ụba, bụrụkwa onye a maara nke ọma, onye si nʼagbụrụ Elimelek. Aha nwoke a bụ Boaz.
2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn after [him] in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
Rut onye Moab, gwara Naomi okwu sị ya, “Kwere ka m gaa nʼubi ebe a na-aghọ ọka, ka m lee ma m ga-achọta ihuọma nʼihu ndị na-aghọ ọka, ndị ga-ekwere ka m tụtụkọta ọka ndị ha hapụrụ.” Naomi zara sị ya, “Ọ dị mma nwa m, gaa.”
3 And she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers: and her lot was to light on a part of the field [belonging] to Boaz, who [was] of the kindred of Elimelech.
Ya mere, Rut pụrụ gaa na-atụtụ ọka nʼazụ ndị na-ewe ihe ubi. Ma dịka ihe si dị, Rut chọpụtara na ubi ọ na-atụtụ ọka bụ ubi Boaz, onye si nʼagbụrụ Elimelek.
4 And behold, Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said to the reapers, The LORD [be] with you. And they answered him, The LORD bless thee.
Nʼoge ahụ, Boaz nʼonwe ya si na Betlehem bịarute nʼubi ahụ, kelee ndị ahụ na-aghọ mkpụrụ nʼubi sị ha, “Onyenwe anyị nọnyere unu.” Ha niile zakwara sị ya, “Onyenwe anyị gọzie gị.”
5 Then said Boaz to his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose damsel [is] this?
Mgbe Boaz hụrụ Rut, ọ jụrụ onyeisi ndị ọrụ ubi ya sị, “Onye ka nwanyị a bụ?”
6 And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It [is] the Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi from the country of Moab:
Onye nlekọta ọrụ ubi ahụ zaghachiri, “Ọ bụ onye Moab ahụ so Naomi lọta.
7 And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, that she tarried a little in the house.
Ọ sịrị, ‘Biko kwere ka m soro ndị ọrụ nʼazụ tụtụkọtaa ukwu ọka ha hapụrụ.’ Kemgbe ụtụtụ ọ bịara, ọ kwụsịbeghị ọrụ ya karịakwa naanị nwa mgbe nta o zuru ike nʼokpuru ndo.”
8 Then said Boaz to Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens:
Ya mere, Boaz gwara Rut okwu sị ya, “Nwa m nwanyị, gee m ntị. Agakwala ịtụtụ ọka nʼubi ọzọ, esitekwala nʼebe a pụọ. Soro ụmụ agbọghọ na-ejere m ozi nọdụ nʼebe a.
9 [Let] thy eyes [be] on the field that they are reaping, and go thou after them: have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch thee? and when thou art thirsty go to the vessels, and drink of [that] which the young men have drawn.
Lezie anya nʼubi ebe ndị ikom na-ewe ihe ubi, ma soro ụmụ agbọghọ ndị a. Enyela m ndị ikom ndị a iwu ka ha ghara ịmetụ gị aka. Mgbe ọbụla agụụ mmiri gụrụ gị, gaa nʼite mmiri ndị ahụ ndị ikom gbanyere mmiri kuru mmiri ṅụọ.”
10 Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, Why have I found grace in thy eyes, that thou shouldst take knowledge of me, seeing I [am] a stranger?
Mgbe Boaz na-agwa ya okwu, Rut hulatara isi ya ala. Emesịa o kwuru sị, “Gịnị mere m ji chọta ụdị amara dị otu a nʼebe ị nọ, na ị hụtara m, ebe ị maara na m bụ naanị onye mba ọzọ?”
11 And Boaz answered and said to her, It hath fully been shown to me, all that thou hast done to 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 hast come to a people which thou knewest not heretofore.
Boaz zara sị ya, “Anụla m ihe niile i meere nne di gị site nʼoge di gị nwụrụ, na otu i si hapụ nne gị na nna gị, na ala ebe amụrụ gị, bịa nʼebe a ibi nʼetiti ndị ị na-amaghị na mbụ.
12 The LORD recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the LORD God of Israel, under whose wings thou hast come to trust.
Ka Onyenwe anyị kwụghachi gị ụgwọ ihe ọma ndị a i mere. Ka Onyenwe anyị onye bụ Chineke Izrel, onye ị gbabara nʼokpuru nku ya izere ndụ kwụghachi gị nkwụghachi dị ukwu nʼihi ezi ọrụ gị niile.”
13 Then she said, Let me find favor in thy sight, my lord; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken kindly to thy handmaid, though I am not like to one of thy handmaidens.
Rut zara sị ya, “Ka m gaa nʼihu na-achọta amara nʼebe ị nọ, onyenwe m. Nʼihi na ị kasịela m obi, gwakwa m, odibo nwanyị gị, okwu dị nro. Ọ bụ ezie na m abụghị otu nʼime ndị odibo nwanyị gị.”
14 And Boaz said to her, At meal-time come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers: and he reached her parched [corn], and she ate, and was satisfied, and left.
Mgbe oge iri nri ruru, Boaz sịrị ya, “Bịa nso nʼebe a, were ụfọdụ nri rie, sunyekwa achịcha gị nʼime mmanya viniga.” Mgbe o soro ndị ahụ na-ewe ihe ubi nọdụ ala iri ihe, o nyere ya ụfọdụ ọka a hụrụ nʼọkụ. O riri, rijuo afọ ma nri e nyere ya fọdụrụ.
15 And when she had risen to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and reproach her not:
Mgbe o biliri ịchịkọtakwa ọka, Boaz nyere ụmụ okorobịa ya iwu, “Hapụnụ ya ka ọ chịkọta ọka ọ bụladị nʼetiti ukwu ọka ndị guzo eguzo, unu agwala ya okwu ihere ọbụla.
16 And let fall also [some] of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave [them], that she may glean [them], and rebuke her not.
Unu sitekwa nʼukwu ọka mịpụtara ya ụfọdụ tụsara ya nʼala ka ọ tụtụrụ. Unu abarala ya mba.”
17 So she gleaned in the field until evening, and beat out that which she had gleaned: and it was about an ephah of barley.
Ya mere, Rut tụtụrụ ọka nʼubi ahụ ruo oge anyasị. Mgbe ọ fuchasịrị ọka balị niile ọ tụtụtara, o nwetara ihe nwere ike iru otu bushel.
18 And she took [it], and 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 reserved after she was satisfied.
O buuru ya baa nʼime obodo, bunye ya nne di ya, nyekwa ya nri o rifọrọ mgbe o rijuchara afọ.
19 And her mother-in-law said to her, Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where hast thou labored? blessed be he that took knowledge of thee. And she showed her mother-in-law with whom she had wrought, and said, The man's name with whom I wrought to-day [is] Boaz.
Nne di ya jụrụ ya, “Ebee ka ị tụtụrụ ọka taa? Ebee ka ị rụrụ ọrụ? Ka nwoke ahụ hụtara gị bụrụ onye a gọziri agọzi.” Rut kọọrọ nne di ya banyere onye ahụ ọ rụrụ ọrụ na nke ya. Ọ sịrị, “Aha nwoke mụ na ya rụrụ ọrụ bụ Boaz.”
20 And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed [be] he of the LORD, who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said to her, The man [is] near of kin to us, one of our next kinsmen.
Mgbe ahụ Naomi zara nwunye nwa ya sị, “Onye Onyenwe anyị gọziri ka ọ bụ, onye na-ahapụbeghị igosi ebere ya nye ndị dị ndụ na ndị nwụrụ anwụ. Nwoke a bụ otu nʼime ndị agbụrụ anyị, otu onye nʼime ndị onye mgbapụta anyị.”
21 And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, Thou shalt keep fast by my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.
Mgbe ahụ Rut, onye Moab sịrị, “Ihe ọ sịkwara m bụ, ‘Nọnyere ndị ọrụ m tutu ruo mgbe ha ghọchara ọka niile dị nʼubi m.’”
22 And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, [It is] good, my daughter, that thou shouldst go out with his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field.
Naomi sịrị Rut, nwunye nwa ya, “Nwa m nwanyị, ọ kaara gị mma ime dịka o kwuru. Soro ụmụ agbọghọ nọ nʼubi ya nʼazụ tụtụọ ọka ị na-atụtụ, nʼihi na nʼubi onye ọzọ, e nwere ike imerụ gị ahụ.”
23 So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean to the end of barley-harvest and of wheat-harvest; and dwelt with her mother-in-law.
Ya mere, Rut sogidere ụmụ agbọghọ Boaz na-atụtụ ọka, tutu ruo ọgwụgwụ ịghọ ọka balị na wiiti. Ya na nne di ya bigidekwara.
