Ruth 2
1 Naomi had a relative of her husband’s, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.
| وَكَانَ لِنُعْمِي قَرِيبٌ وَاسِعُ الثَّرَاءِ وَالنُّفُوذِ، مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ أَلِيمَالِكَ زَوْجِهَا، اسْمُهُ بُوعَزُ. | ١ |
2 Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Let me now go to the field, and glean amongst the ears of grain after him in whose sight I find favour.” She said to her, “Go, my daughter.”
| فَقَالَتْ رَاعُوثُ الْمُوآبِيَّةُ لِنُعْمِي: «دَعِينِي أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الْحَقْلِ وَأَلْتَقِطُ السَّنَابِلَ الْمُتَخَلِّفَةَ عَنْ أَيِّ وَاحِدٍ أَحْظَى بِرِضَاهُ». فَأَجَابَتْهَا: «اذْهَبِي يَا ابْنَتِي» | ٢ |
3 She went, and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
| فَمَضَتْ إِلَى حَقْلٍ وَشَرَعَتْ تَلْتَقِطُ السَّنَابِلَ وَرَاءَ الْحَصَّادِينَ. | ٣ |
4 Behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, “May the LORD be with you.” They answered him, “May the LORD bless you.”
| وَاتَّفَقَ أَنَّ قِطْعَةَ الْحَقْلِ الَّتِي رَاحَتْ رَاعُوثُ تَلْتَقِطُ مِنْهَا السَّنَابِلَ، كَانَتْ مِلْكاً لِبُوعَزَ مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ أَلِيمَالِكَ. | ٤ |
5 Then Boaz said to his servant who was set over the reapers, “Whose young lady is this?”
| وَجَاءَ بُوعَزُ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ وَقَالَ لِلْحَصَّادِينَ: «الرَّبُّ مَعَكُمْ». فَأَجَابُوهُ «يُبَارِكُكَ الرَّبُّ». | ٥ |
6 The servant who was set over the reapers answered, “It is the Moabite lady who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab.
| فَسَأَلَ بُوعَزُ غُلَامَهُ الْمُشْرِفَ عَلَى الْحَصَّادِينَ: «مَنْ هَذِهِ الْفَتَاةُ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «هِيَ فَتَاةٌ مُوآبِيَّةٌ، رَجَعَتْ مَعْ نُعْمِي مِنْ بِلادِ مُوآبَ. | ٦ |
7 She said, ‘Please let me glean and gather after the reapers amongst the sheaves.’ So she came, and has continued even from the morning until now, except that she rested a little in the house.”
| وَطَلَبَتْ قَائِلَةً: دَعُونِي أَلْتَقِطُ وَأَجْمَعُ السَّنَابِلَ الْمُتَسَاقِطَةَ بَيْنَ الْحُزَمِ وَرَاءَ الْحَصَّادِينَ، وَقَدْ ظَلَّتْ تَلْتَقِطُ مِنَ الصَّبَاحِ إِلَى الآنَ، لَمْ تَسْتَرِحْ فِي الظِّلِّ إِلّا قَلِيلاً». | ٧ |
8 Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter. Don’t go to glean in another field, and don’t go from here, but stay here close to my maidens.
| فَقَالَ بُوعَزُ لِرَاعُوثَ: «اسْتَمِعِي يَا ابْنَتِي، امْكُثِي هُنَا لِتَلْتَقِطِي السَّنَابِلَ وَلا تَذْهَبِي إِلَى حَقْلٍ آخَرَ، وَلازِمِي فَتَيَاتِي الْعَامِلاتِ فِيهِ. | ٨ |
9 Let your eyes be on the field that they reap, and go after them. Haven’t I commanded the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink from that which the young men have drawn.”
| رَاقِبِي الْحَقْلَ الَّذِي يَحْصُدُهُ الْحَصَّادُونَ وَاذْهَبِي وَرَاءَهُمْ، فَقَدْ أَوْصَيْتُ الْغِلْمَانَ أَلّا يَمَسُّوكِ بِسُوءٍ. وَإذَا شَعَرْتِ بِالْعَطَشِ فَاذْهَبِي وَاشْرَبِي مِنَ الآنِيَةِ الَّتِي مَلأُوهَا». | ٩ |
10 Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found favour in your sight, that you should take knowledge of me, since I am a foreigner?”
| فَانْحَنَتْ بِرَأْسِهَا إِلَى الأَرْضِ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «كَيْفَ لَقِيتُ حُظْوَةً لَدَيْكَ فَاهْتَمَمْتَ بِي أَنَا الْغَرِيبَةَ؟» | ١٠ |
11 Boaz answered her, “I have been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father, your mother, and the land of your birth, and have come to a people that you didn’t know before.
| فَأَجَابَهَا بُوعَزُ: «لَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي مَا أَحْسَنْتِ بِهِ إِلَى حَمَاتِكِ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ زَوْجِكِ، حَتَّى إِنَّكِ تَخَلَّيْتِ عَنْ أَبِيكِ وَأُمِّكِ وَأَرْضِ مَوْلِدِكِ، وَجِئْتِ إِلَى شَعْبٍ لَمْ تَعْرِفِيهِ مِنْ قَبْلُ. | ١١ |
12 May the LORD repay your work, and a full reward be given to you from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
| لِيُكَافِئْكِ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، الَّذِي جِئْتِ لِتَحْتَمِيَ تَحْتَ جَنَاحَيْهِ، وَفْقاً لإِحْسَانِكِ. وَلْيَكُنْ أَجْرُكِ كَامِلاً مِنْ عِنْدِهِ». | ١٢ |
13 Then she said, “Let me find favour in your sight, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken kindly to your servant, though I am not as one of your servants.”
| فَقَالَتْ: «لَيْتَنِي أَظَلُّ مُتَمَتِّعَةً بِرِضَى سَيِّدِي، فَقَدْ عَزَّيْتَنِي وَطَيَّبْتَ قَلْبَ جَارِيَتِكَ، مَعْ أَنَّنِي لَا أُسَاوِي وَاحِدَةً مِنْ جَوَارِيكَ». | ١٣ |
14 At meal time Boaz said to her, “Come here, and eat some bread, and dip your morsel in the vinegar.” She sat beside the reapers, and they passed her parched grain. She ate, was satisfied, and left some of it.
| وَعِنْدَمَا حَلَّ مَوْعِدُ الأَكْلِ، قَالَ لَهَا بُوعَزُ: «تَقَدَّمِي وَكُلِي بَعْضَ الْخُبْزِ، وَاغْمِسِي لُقْمَتَكِ فِي الْخَمْرِ». فَجَلَسَتْ بِجَانِبِ الْحَصَّادِينَ، فَنَاوَلَهَا فَرِيكاً فَأَكَلَتْ وَشَبِعَتْ وَفَاضَ عَنْهَا. | ١٤ |
15 When she had risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, “Let her glean even amongst the sheaves, and don’t reproach her.
| ثُمَّ قَامَتْ لِتَلْتَقِطَ سَنَابِلَ. فَأَمَرَ بُوعَزُ غِلْمَانَهُ قَائِلاً: «اتْرُكُوهَا تَلْتَقِطُ سَنَابِلَ بَيْنَ حُزَمِ الشَّعِيرِ أَيْضاً وَلا تَمَسُّوهَا بِأَذىً، | ١٥ |
16 Also pull out some for her from the bundles, and leave it. Let her glean, and don’t rebuke her.”
| بَلِ انْتَزِعُوا بَعْضَ السَّنَابِلِ مِنَ الْحُزَمِ وَاتْرُكُوهَا لَهَا لِتَلْتَقِطَهَا، وَلا تُضَايِقُوهَا». | ١٦ |
17 So she gleaned in the field until evening; and she beat out that which she had gleaned, and it was about an efah of barley.
| وَظَلَّتْ رَاعُوثُ تَلْتَقِطُ إِلَى الْمَسَاءِ. ثُمَّ خَبَطَتِ السَّنَابِلَ الَّتِي الْتَقَطَتْهَا فَوَجَدَتْ أَنَّهَا نَحْوَ إِيْفَةِ شَعِيرٍ (أَيْ نَحْوَ أَرْبَعَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ لِتْرَ شَعِيرٍ)، | ١٧ |
18 She took it up, and went into the city. Then her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought out and gave to her that which she had left after she had enough.
| فَحَمَلَتْهَا وَقَدُمَتْ بِها إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ. فَرَأَتْ حَمَاتُهَا مَا الْتَقَطَتْهُ، ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَتْ مَا فَاضَ عَنْهَا مِنْ طَعَامٍ بَعْدَ شَبْعِهَا وَأَعْطَتْهُ لِحَمَاتِهَا | ١٨ |
19 Her mother-in-law said to her, “Where have you gleaned today? Where have you worked? Blessed be he who noticed you.” She told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, “The man’s name with whom I worked today is Boaz.”
| الَّتِي سَأَلَتْهَا: «أَيْنَ الْتَقَطْتِ الْيَوْمَ، وَفِي أَيِّ حَقْلٍ عَمِلْتِ؟ لِيُبَارِكِ الرَّبُّ مَنْ كَانَ عَطُوفاً عَلَيْكِ». فَأَخْبَرَتْ رَاعُوثُ حَمَاتَهَا عَمَّنِ اشْتَغَلَتْ فِي حَقْلِهِ وَقَالَتْ: «اسْمُ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي عَمِلْتُ فِي حَقْلِهِ الْيَوْمَ هُوَ بُوعَزُ». | ١٩ |
20 Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not abandoned his kindness to the living and to the dead.” Naomi said to her, “The man is a close relative to us, one of our near kinsmen.”
| فَقَالَتْ نُعْمِي لِكَنَّتِهَا: «لِيَكُنِ الرَّبُّ مُبَارَكاً لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَتَخَلَّ عَنِ الإِحْسَانِ إِلَى الأَحْيَاءِ وَالأَمْوَاتِ». ثُمَّ اسْتَطْرَدَتْ: «إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ قَرِيبٌ لَنَا، وَهُوَ مِنْ أَوْلِيَائِنَا». | ٢٠ |
21 Ruth the Moabitess said, “Yes, he said to me, ‘You shall stay close to my young men until they have finished all my harvest.’”
| فَقَالَتْ رَاعُوثُ الْمُوآبِيَّةُ: «لَقَدْ طَلَبَ مِنِّي أَنْ أُلازِمَ عُمَّالَهُ حَتَّى يَسْتَوْفُوا حَصَادَهُ». | ٢١ |
22 Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, “It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, and that they not meet you in any other field.”
| فَقَالَتْ نُعْمِي لِرَاعُوثَ كَنَّتِهَا: «خَيْرٌ لَكِ أَنْ تُلازِمِي فَتَيَاتِهِ لِئَلّا يَقَعَ بِكِ أَذىً لَوْ عَمِلْتِ فِي حَقْلِ آخَرَ». | ٢٢ |
23 So she stayed close to the maidens of Boaz, to glean to the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and she lived with her mother-in-law.
| فَلازَمَتْ رَاعُوثُ فَتَيَاتِ بُوعَزَ اللّاقِطَاتِ السَّنَابِلَ، حَتَّى تَمَّ حَصَادُ الشَّعِيرِ وَالْقَمْحِ أَيْضاً وَأَقَامَتْ مَعْ حَمَاتِهَا. | ٢٣ |
