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?
Kèk tan apre sa, Naomi di Rit konsa: -Pa pito m' chache yon mari pou ou, pou ou ka viv ak kè poze lakay ou?
2 Now isn’t Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens you were? Behold, he will be winnowing barley tonight on the threshing floor.
Ou chonje Bòz, pa vre? Mèt jaden kote ou te ye ansanm ak medam yo? Bon! Ou chonje mwen te di ou se yon fanmi pre nou li ye! Bon. Koute! Aswè a, yo pral vannen lòj yo fin bat yo.
3 Therefore wash yourself, anoint yourself, get dressed, and go down to the threshing floor; but don’t make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.
Al benyen. Mete odè sou ou, mete pi bèl rad ou sou ou. Epi ale bò glasi a, kote y'ap vannen an. Men, pa kite Bòz konnen ou la. W'a tann li fin manje, li fin bwè diven anvan.
4 It shall be, when he lies down, that you shall note the place where he is lying. Then you shall go in, uncover his feet, and lie down. Then he will tell you what to do.”
Lè sa a, w'a gade byen kote li al kouche. Lè w'a wè dòmi pran l', ou va ale, w'a leve pwent dra ki kouvri pye l' yo, epi w'a kouche kouche ou la, bò kote l'. Li menm l'a di ou sa pou ou fè apre sa.
5 She said to her, “All that you say, I will do.”
Rit reponn li: -M'a fè tou sa ou di m' fè.
6 She went down to the threshing floor, and did everything that her mother-in-law told her.
Se konsa Rit leve vre, li ale bò glasi a, li fè sa bèlmè li te di l' fè a.
7 When Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. She came softly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
Lè Bòz fin manje, lè li fin bwè diven, kè l' te kontan. Li al kouche bò yon pil pay lòj, epi dòmi pote l' ale. Lè sa a, Rit pwoche tou dousman, li leve pwent dra ki te kouvri pye l' yo, epi li kouche la bò kote l'.
8 At midnight, the man was startled and turned himself; and behold, a woman lay at his feet.
Nan mitan lannwit, Bòz pantan nan dòmi an. Li leve, li panche, li tou sezi wè yon fanm ki te kouche nan pye l'.
9 He said, “Who are you?” She answered, “I am Ruth your servant. Therefore spread the corner of your garment over your servant; for you are a near kinsman.”
Li mande: -Ki moun sa? Rit reponn li: -Se mwen menm, Rit. Ou se yon fanmi pre nou. Se ou ki reskonsab pou pran swen mwen. Mwen vin jwenn ou.
10 He said, “You are blessed by the LORD, my daughter. You have shown more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, because you didn’t follow young men, whether poor or rich.
Bòz di l' konsa: -benediksyon Seyè a avè ou, mafi! Sa w'ap fè la a pi konsekan pase tou sa ou te fè pou bèlmè ou la. Sa moutre ou pa soti pou ou lage fanmi an. Ou ta gen dwa al dèyè nenpòt ki jenn gason, rich osinon pòv, pou marye avè ou, men ou pa fè l'.
11 Now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do to you all that you say; for all the city of my people knows that you are a worthy woman.
Ou pa bezwen bat kò ou, tande. M'ap fè tou sa ou mande m' fè pou ou a. Tout moun konnen ou se yon fanm total.
12 Now it is true that I am a near kinsman. However, there is a kinsman nearer than I.
Se vre sa ou di a. Mwen se yon fanmi pre nou. Mwen reskonsab ou. Men, gen yon nonm ki fanmi ou pi pre pase m'.
13 Stay this night, and in the morning, if he will perform for you the part 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 the duty of a kinsman for you, as the LORD lives. Lie down until the morning.”
Ou mèt rete pase nwit lan la. Denmen maten m'a chache konnen si li vle pran reskonsablite a sou do li. Si li dakò pou li pran li, m'a byen kontan. Si li pa vle, enben, mwen fè sèman devan Bondye vivan ki nan syèl la, m'ap pran l' mwen menm. Koulye a, rete kouche la jouk denmen maten.
14 She lay at his feet until the morning, then she rose up before one could discern another. For he said, “Let it not be known that the woman came to the threshing floor.”
Se konsa Rit kouche la nan pye l'. Men, anvan bajou kase, li leve pou moun pa wè l', paske Bòz pa t' vle pesonn konnen li te la.
15 He said, “Bring the mantle that is on you, and hold it.” She held it; and he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her; then he went into the city.
Bòz di l' konsa: -Wete dra ki vlope ou la, louvri l' atè a. Rit louvri dra a atè. Bòz vide dis mamit lòj konsa ladan l'. Li mare l', epi li ede l' mete l' sou tèt li. Apre sa, Rit tounen lavil ak pakèt la.
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 for her.
Lè li rive lakay li, bèlmè a mande l': -Enben, mafi! Ki jan sa pase? Rit tanmen rakonte l' tou sa Bòz fè pou li.
17 She said, “He gave me these six measures of barley; for he said, ‘Don’t go empty to your mother-in-law.’”
Epi li di: -Anvan m' ale, li di m' konsa ou pa ka tounen san anyen. Se konsa, li ban m' dis mamit lòj sa yo.
18 Then she said, “Wait, my daughter, until you know what will happen; for the man will not rest until he has settled this today.”
Naomi di l': -Koulye a, Rit mafi, poze kò ou tann pou ou wè jan sa pral pase. Bòz p'ap bay kò l' kanpo jòdi a, tout tan li pa regle zafè sa a.
