< Ruth 4 >

1 Then Boaz went up to the gate, and sat down there: and behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by; to whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.
Boaz chu khopi kelkot phunga achetouvin hikomma chun agatoutai. Hiche pettah chun insung kinai pipen ati pachu ahungin ahileh Boaz chun akouvin, “Golpa hungin lang hichea hin toutadin kasei nomkhat aumme,” atin ahi. Hichun amani chu atoukhom lhontan ahi.
2 And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit ye down here. And they sat down.
Chuin Boaz in khopi sunga lamkai som akou khom in athu hetoh dingin atousah in ahi.
3 And he said to the kinsman, Naomi, that has come again out of the country of Moab, selleth a parcel of land, which [was] our brother Elimelech's:
Hichun Boaz in insung kinaipi pen komma chun hiti hin aseitan ahi, “Moab gamma konna hung le hungkit Naomi chu nahen ahi. Amahin ikinaipi Elimelach gamchu ajoh in ahi.
4 And I thought to advertise thee, saying, Buy [it] before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem [it], redeem [it]: but if thou wilt not redeem [it], [then] tell me, that I may know: for [there is] none to redeem [it] besides thee; and I [am] after thee. And he said, I will redeem [it].
Keiman nakomma kaseinom chu ahileh hichehi nalhatnom leh kilhatnin kati ahi. Agamchu nadeileh hiche ahetoh mi hijat masanga hin kichoh jengin, ahinlah nangin nadeilouva ahileh tutun neihetsah jingin ajeh chu nangbanna alhat thei akinaipi chu kei kahi,” ati. Hichun mipa chun “Aphai keiman kilhat nange,” tin adonbut in ahi.
5 Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy [it] also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.
Hijouchun Boaz in ama komma chun hintin aseije; “Aphai Naomi gamchu nachoh dinga ahileh Moab meithai nu Ruth jonghi nakichenpi ding ahi, hitia chu amanun cha aneiteng ajipa min chu aputding insungmi hina a agamchu nanga hiding ahi,” ati.
6 And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem [it] for myself, lest I mar my own inheritance: redeem thou my right to thyself; for I cannot redeem [it].
Akinaipi penpa chun ahin donbut in hitin aseipeh tai, “Chuti ding ahileh keima lhatjou ponge, ajeh chu hichun keima gam eisuhboi peh ding ahi, hijeh chun nangin kilhat tan,” ati tai.
7 Now this [was the manner] in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning changing, for confirming all things; a man plucked off his shoe, and gave [it] to his neighbor: and this [was] a testimony in Israel.
Tun hiche lai khanga chun Isrealte lah a chun che na daan khat anaum in mikhat touvin thil achoh nading athaneina chu mikhat komma apehdoh a ahileh akeng koh chu asutna ama pachu apehding ahi. Hitia chu mipi hetna kikhut lhehna chu kisudetji ahi.
8 Therefore the kinsman said to Boaz, Buy [it] for thyself. So he drew off his shoe.
Hitichun ainsung kinaipipen pachun akengkoh chu asutlhan Boaz komma chun aseitai, “Nangin kilhat tan” ati.
9 And Boaz said to the elders, and [to] all the people, Ye [are] witnesses this day, that I have bought all that [was] Elimelech's, and all that [was] Chilion's and Mahlon's, of the hand of Naomi.
Hichun Boaz in upa hole avella ding mipiho jah a chun “Tunia hi keiman Naomi khutna kon in Elimelech, Chilion le Mahlon neijouse aboncha kachoh ahitai.
10 Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye [are] witnesses this day.
Chujongleh gam jouse puma hi Moab numei Ruth kitinu Mahlon meithainu jonghi kaji dinga kachan tha ahitai. Hitia chu amanun cha pasal ahinna, athisa ajipa insung minhi atundoh a, hiche achennao khopi sung ahi ainsung thil lelo jouse jonghi agouva kisim ding ahi. Nang hojouse hi tunia ahetoh nahi taove,” ati.
11 And all the people that [were] in the gate, and the elders said, [We are] witnesses. The LORD make the woman that hath come into thy house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Beth-lehem:
Hichun upa holeh mipi kelkotna dingho jouse chun ahindonbut uvin, “Keiho ahetoh kahiuve, Pakaiyin hiche numei nainsung’a ahunglut hi Isreal nam hung kondoh na Rachel leh Leah toh bahsah hen! Nangjong Ephrathah bangin pung inlang Bethlehem naming thang tahen.” atiuvin ahi.
12 And let thy house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this young woman.
“Chuleh Pakaijn hiche khangdong numeinu a kon hin i-puluiyu Judah leh Jamer chapa Perez tobang'in chilhah tamtah nape hen!” atiuve.
13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in to her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bore a son.
Hichun Boaz in Ruth chu a in'ah akipuilut in hiti chun amanu chu amapa jinu ahung hitai. Aman amanu chu aluppin ahileh Pakaiyin nao ahin vop sah in, amanun chapa khat ahin hingtai.
14 And the women said to Naomi, Blessed [be] the LORD, who hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel.
Hichun khopi sunga numeiho chun Naomi kommah “Nainsung’a gam ngahding nahin tundoh peh a Pakai chu thangvah in umhen! Hiche chapanghi Isreal namsung’ah hung minthang hen.
15 And he shall be to thee a restorer of [thy] life, and a nourisher of thy old age: for thy daughter-in-law, who loveth thee, who is better to thee than seven sons, hath borne him.
Amahin nakhangdong sah kit henlang chuleh nateh lang hinkho hi nahin vetsuipeh tahen. Ajeh chu amahi nahin ngailua namounu cha ahin chapa sagi nanei sanga phajo ahi,” atiuve.
16 And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became its nurse.
Hichun Naomi chun hiche naosen chu akipom in a-optoh asipbeh tan ahi. Aman ama cha mong mong bangin akidontan ahi.
17 And the women, her neighbors, gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi; and they called his name Obed: he [is] the father of Jesse, the father of David.
A-inheng numei hon, tun Naomi’n cha aneikit tai. Chuleh amahon amin chu Obed asah taove. Amahi Jesse pa ahung hin David pu ahung hitai.
18 Now these [are] the generations of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron,
Hichehi a-puluiyu Perez son achilhah hochu ahung hitaove, Perez hi Hezron pa ahung hin,
19 And Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminadab,
Hezron hi Ram pa ahin, Ram hi Amminadab pa ahin,
20 And Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,
Amminadab chu Nahshon pa ahin, Nahshon hi Salmon pa ahin,
21 And Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
Salmon hi Boaz pa ahi, Boaz hi Obed pa ahin,
22 And Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
Obed hi Jesse pa ahin, chuleh Jesse hi David pa ahi.
