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?
Alò Naomi, bèlmè li a te di l: “Fi mwen, èske m pa dwe chache sekirite pou ou, pou sa kapab ale byen pou ou?
2 Now isn’t Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens you were? Behold, he will be winnowing barley tonight on the threshing floor.
Alò èske Boaz avèk sèvant li kote ou te ye yo, èske se pa pwòch fanmi pa nou? Gade byen, l ap vannen lòj nan glasi a aswè a.
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.
Pou sa, lave kò ou, onksyone ou e mete pi bèl rad ou yo pou desann nan glasi vannen an. Men pa fè nonm nan konnen kilès ou ye jiskaske li fin manje ak bwè.
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.”
Li va rive ke lè li fin kouche, ke ou va remake byen kote li kouche a, epi ou va ale dekouvri pye li e kouche la. Konsa li va di ou kisa pou w fè.”
5 She said to her, “All that you say, I will do.”
Epi li te di li: “Tout sa ou di m fè, mwen va fè l.”
6 She went down to the threshing floor, and did everything that her mother-in-law told her.
Konsa, li te desann kote glasi vannen an pou te fè selon tout sa ke bèlmè li te kòmande li yo.
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 Boaz te fin manje ak bwè, kè l te kontan. Konsa li te ale kouche nan pwent pil lòj la, e Ruth te vin kote li an sekrè. Konsa, li te dekouvri pye li pou te kouche la.
8 At midnight, the man was startled and turned himself; and behold, a woman lay at his feet.
Li te vin rive nan mitan nwit lan ke nonm nan te sibitman sanse yon bagay, epi lè l panche devan an, men yon fanm te kouche la nan pye li.
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 te di: “Kilès ou ye?” Li te reponn: “Mwen se Ruth, sèvant ou a. Konsa, tann kouvèti ou sou sèvant ou a, paske ou se pwòch fanmi pa m.”
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.
Epi li te di: “Ke ou kapab beni pa SENYÈ a, fi mwen. Ou te montre dènye favè ou a pi bèl pase premye a! Konsa, ke ou pa t kouri dèyè jennonm yo, kit rich, kit pòv.
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.
Alò fi mwen, pa pè; mwen va fè pou ou nenpòt sa ke ou mande, paske tout pèp nan vil la konnen ke ou se yon fanm plen kalite.
12 Now it is true that I am a near kinsman. However, there is a kinsman nearer than I.
Alò, se vrè ke mwen se yon pwòch fanmi. Men gen yon fanmi 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.”
Rete pou nwit lan e lè maten rive, si li va peye ranson ou, trè byen; kite li peye ranson ou. Men si li pa vle peye ranson ou, alò, kon SENYÈ a viv la, mwen va peye ranson ou! Kouche la jis rive nan 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.”
Konsa, li te kouche nan pye li jis rive nan maten e te leve avan youn ta kab rekonèt lòt. Konsa, Boaz te di: “Pa kite li vin konnen ke fanm nan te vini nan glasi vannen an.”
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.
Ankò li te di: “Ban mwen manto ki sou ou a e kenbe li.” Konsa, li te kenbe li e li te mezire sis mezi nan lòj la e te poze l sou li. Epi li te lantre nan vil 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 te rive vè bèlmè li, li te di: “Kijan sa te sòti, fi mwen?” Epi li te di li tout sa ke nonm nan te 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.’”
Li te di: “Men sis mezi lòj li te ban mwen yo, paske li te di: ‘Pa kite men a bèlmè ou vid.’”
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.”
Epi li te di: “Tann, fi mwen, jiskaske ou konnen kijan afè sa vin fini, paske nonm nan p ap pran repo jiskaske li fin regle li jodi a menm.”
