Ruth 4
1 Therfor Booz stiede to the yate, and sat there; and whanne he hadde seyn the kynesman passe forth, of whom the word was had, Booz seide to hym, Bowe thou a litil, and sitte here; and he clepide hym bi his name. And he turnede, and sat.
Boaz potom iziđe na gradska vrata i sjede ondje. I gle, naiđe onaj skrbnik o kome je govorio. I dozva ga Boaz: “Ej, hodi ovamo i sjedni!” Onaj dođe i sjede.
2 Forsothe Booz took ten `men of the eldere men of the citee, and seide to hem, Sitte ye here.
Onda Boaz uze deset ljudi između starješina gradskih i reče: “Posjedajte ovdje!” I posjedaše.
3 And while thei saten, Booz spak to the kynesman, Noemy, that turnede ayen fro the cuntrey of Moab, seelde the part of the feeld of oure brother Elymelech,
Zatim reče skrbniku: “Noemi, koja se vratila s Moapskih polja, htjela bi prodati ono zemlje našega brata Elimeleka.
4 which thing Y wolde that thou here; and Y wolde seie to thee bifor alle `men syttynge and grettere in birthe of my puple. If thou wolt haue in possessioun the feeld bi riyt of nyy kyn, bye thou, and `haue thou in possessioun; sotheli if it displesith thee, schewe thou this same thing to me, that Y wyte what Y `owe to do; for noon is niy in kyn, outakun thee which art the formere, and outakun me which am the secunde. And he answeride, Y schal bie the feeld.
Zato sam odlučio da se s tobom razgovorim i predložim ti: otkupi njivu pred ovima koji sjede ovdje i pred starješinama moga naroda. Ako je kaniš otkupiti, onda otkupi; ako ne kaniš, kaži mi da znam. Jer prije tebe nema nitko pravo na otkup; ja sam na redu tek iza tebe.” A onaj reče: “Hoću, otkupit ću je.”
5 To whom Booz seide, Whanne thou hast bouyte the feeld of the `hond of the womman, thou owist `to take also Ruth of Moab, that was the wijf of the deed man, that thou reise the name of thi kynesman in his eritage.
Onda kaza Boaz: “Kad uzmeš zemlju iz ruke Noemi, treba da uzmeš i Rutu Moapku, pokojnikovu ženu, da se pokojniku sačuva ime na baštini.”
6 Which answeride, Y forsake the ryyt of nyy kyn; for Y owe not to do awei the eritage of my meynee; vse thou my priuelegie, which priuelegie Y knowleche me to wante gladli.
Ali skrbnik reče: “E, onda ne mogu biti otkupnik, da ne raspem svoje baštine. Otkupi ti po svome skrbničkom pravu jer ja ne mogu.”
7 Forsothe this was the custom bi eld tyme in Israel among kynesmen, that if a man yaf his riyt to anothir man, that the grauntyng were stidefast, the man vnlaase his scho, and yaf to his kynesman; this was the witnessyng of the yift in Israel.
A bijaše od starine običaj u Izraelu: da se čemu potkrijepi valjanost otkupa ili zamjene, čovjek bi izuo sandalu i dao je drugome. To bijaše svjedočanstvo u Izraelu.
8 Therfor Booz seide to his kynesman, Take the scho fro thee; `which scho he vnlaside anoon fro his foot.
Tako dakle i onaj skrbnik reče Boazu: “Otkupi ti!” te izu sandalu i dade mu je.
9 And Booz seide to the grettere men in birthe and to al the puple, Ye ben witnessis to dai, that Y haue take in possessioun alle thingis that weren of Elymelech, and of Chelion, and of Maalon, bi the yifte of Noemy;
Tada Boaz kaza starješinama i svemu narodu: “Vi ste danas svjedoci da ja otkupljujem iz ruke Noemine sve ono što je bilo Elimelekovo, sve što je bilo Kiljonovo i Mahlonovo.
10 and that Y haue take in to wedlok Ruth of Moab, the wijf of Maalon, that Y reise the name of the deed man in his erytage; lest his name be doon awey fro his meynee and britheren and puple. Ye, he seide, ben witnessis of this thing.
Uz to uzimam za ženu Rutu Moapku, ženu Mahlonovu, da bi se sačuvalo ime pokojnikovo na baštini i da se ime njegovo ne bi zatrlo među braćom njegovom i nestalo s vrata zavičaja njegova. Vi ste danas tome svjedoci.”
11 Al the puple, that was in the yate, answeride, and the grettere men in birthe answeriden, We ben witnessis; the Lord make this womman, that entrith in to thin hows, as Rachel and Lia, that bildiden the hows of Israel, that sche be ensaumple of vertu in Effrata, and haue a solempne name in Bethleem;
Sav narod koji se nalazio na vratima gradskim i starješine rekoše: “Svjedoci smo! Dao Jahve da žena koja ulazi u dom tvoj bude kao Rahela i Lea, koje su obje podigle kuću Izraelovu! Obogati se u Efrati, a prodiči u Betlehemu!
12 and thin hows be maad as the hows of Fares, whom Thamar childide to Judas, of the seed which the Lord schal yyue to thee of this damesel.
Neka tvoja kuća, po potomstvu koje će ti dati Jahve od ove mlade žene, bude kao kuća Peresa, koga Judi rodi Tamara!”
13 Therfor Booz took Ruth, and took hir to wijf; and he entride to hir, and the Lord yaf to hir, that sche conseyuede, `and childide a sone.
Tako Boaz uze Rutu i ona posta žena njegova. Uđe on k njoj i Jahve joj dade te ona zatrudnje i rodi sina.
14 And wymmen seiden to Noemy, Blessid be the Lord, which `suffride not, that an eir failide to thi meynee, and his name were clepid in Israel;
Onda žene rekoše Noemi: “Blagoslovljen bio Jahve koji ti danas nije uskratio skrbnika! I prodičio njegovo ime u Izraelu!
15 and that thou haue `a man, that schal coumforte thi soule, and nursche elde age. For a child is borun of thi douytir in lawe, `which child schal loue thee, and he is myche betere to thee, than if thou haddist seuene sones.
On će biti tvoja utjeha i potpora starosti tvojoj; jer ga rodi snaha tvoja koja te ljubi i koja ti vrijedi više od sedam sinova.”
16 And Noemy puttide the child resseyued in hir bosum; and sche dide the office of a nurische, and of a berere.
Noemi uze dječaka, metnu ga sebi na krilo i bi mu odgojiteljicom.
17 Forsothe wymmen neiyboris thankiden hir, and seiden, A sone is borun to Noemy, and clepide his name Obeth. This is the fadir of Ysay, fadir of Dauid.
Susjede mu nadjenuše ime govoreći: “Noemi se rodio sin!” I prozvaše ga Obed; on je otac Jišaja, oca Davidova.
18 These ben the generaciouns of Fares; Fares gendride Esrom;
A ovo je rodoslovlje Peresovo: Peres imade sina Hesrona,
19 Esrom gendride Aram; Aram gendride Amynadab;
Hesron Rama, Ram Aminadaba,
20 Amynadab gendride Naason; Naason gendride Salmon; Salmon gendride Booz;
Aminadab Nahšona, Nahšon Salmona,
21 Booz gendride Obeth;
Salmon Boaza, Boaz Obeda,
22 Obeth gendride Isay; Isay gendride Dauid the kyng.
Obed Jišaja, a Jišaj Davida.
