< Ruth 3 >

1 And Naomi her mother-in-law saith to her, 'My daughter, do not I seek for thee rest, that it may be well with thee?
In kutu pacl tok, Naomi el fahk nu sel Ruth, “Nga enenu in konauk sie mukul ah tomom, tuh in wo ouiyom ac in oasr acn sum sifacna.
2 and now, is not Boaz of our acquaintance, with whose young women thou hast been? lo, he is winnowing the threshing-floor of barley to-night,
Esam lah Boaz, mwet se ma kom wi mutan ingan orekma la inge, el sou nu sesr. Porongo ma nga ac fahk uh. Oyeku el ac fah aknasnasye barley lal ah.
3 and thou hast bathed, and anointed thyself, and put thy garments upon thee, and gone down to the threshing-floor; let not thyself be known to the man till he complete to eat and to drink;
Fahla yihla, ac fwikomla ke ono keng, ac nokomang nuknuk se ma wo emeet lom an. Na kom som nu yen el orekma we, tusruktu nimet kom oru elan liye kom nwe ke na el mongo ac nim tari.
4 and it cometh to pass when he lieth down, that thou hast known the place where he lieth down, and hast gone in, and uncovered his feet, and lain down, — and he doth declare to thee that which thou dost do.'
Liye akwoye acn el ac oan we an, ac el fin motulla, na kom utyak ikasak kaot lal an ac ona ke nial. El ac fah fahk nu sum ma kom in oru.”
5 And she saith unto her, 'All that thou sayest — I do.'
Na Ruth el fahk, “Nga ac fah oru ma nukewa kom fahk an.”
6 And she goeth down [to] the threshing-floor, and doth according to all that her mother-in-law commanded her
Ouinge Ruth el som nu nien aknasnasye barley, ac oru oana ma Naomi el fahk ah.
7 And Boaz eateth and drinketh, and his heart is glad; and he goeth in to lie down at the end of the heap; and she cometh in gently, and uncovereth his feet, and lieth down.
Ke Boaz el mongoi ac nim tari, el arulana mwesasla nunkal. El som nu ke acn ma barley ah yol oan we ah, ac ona in motulla. Na Ruth el mahsrikyak nu in acn el oan we, ikasak kaot lal ah, ac ona ke nial.
8 And it cometh to pass, at the middle of the night, that the man trembleth, and turneth himself, and lo, a woman is lying at his feet.
In fong sac Boaz el ngutalik ac ikla, na el lut na pwaye lah mutan se oan ke nial.
9 And he saith, 'Who [art] thou?' and she saith, 'I [am] Ruth thy handmaid, and thou hast spread thy skirt over thy handmaid, for thou [art] a redeemer.'
Na el siyuk, “Su kom an?” Na el topuk ac fahk, “Nga Ruth. Mweyen kom pa sie sou fototo nu sesr uh, laknelik kaot lom an ac afinyuwi.”
10 And he saith, 'Blessed [art] thou of Jehovah, my daughter; thou hast dealt more kindly at the latter end than at the beginning — not to go after the young men, either poor or rich.
Na Boaz el fahk, “LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoye kom, acn nutik. Ma se kom oru inge akkalemye lupan nunak pwaye lom nu sin sou lasr uh yohk liki na orekma wo nukewa ma kom oru nu sin nina talupom. Kom ku pacna in som suk sie mwet fusr su kasrup ku sukasrup, tuh pa kom tiana.
11 And now, my daughter, fear not, all that thou sayest I do to thee, for all the gate of my people doth know that thou [art] a virtuous woman.
Ke ma inge, Ruth, nimet kom fosrnga. Nga ac srike in oru ma nukewa ma kom siyuk an, mweyen mwet nukewa in acn se inge elos etu lah kom sie mutan wo.
12 And now, surely, true, that I [am] a redeemer, but also there is a redeemer nearer than I.
Pwaye lah nga sou fototo nu sum, ac fal nga in karingin kom, tusruktu oasr pac mukul se sou fototo nu sum likiyu.
13 Lodge to night, and it hath been in the morning, if he doth redeem thee, well: he redeemeth; and if he delight not to redeem thee, then I have redeemed thee — I; Jehovah liveth! lie down till the morning.'
Mutana inge ofong, ac lututang kut fah liye lah mukul sac ac lungse in karingin kom. El fin lungse, wo. Tuh el fin tia, na nga fulahk ke Inen LEUM GOD moul lah nga ac fah karingin kom. Inge ona ac motulla nwe ke lenelik.”
14 And she lieth down at his feet till the morning, and riseth before one doth discern another; and he saith, 'Let it not be known that the woman hath come into the floor.'
Na Ruth el motulla ke nial, tusruktu el tukakek meet liki kalmelik ah, mweyen Boaz el tia lungse in oasr mwet etu lah Ruth el tuku nu we.
15 And he saith, 'Give the covering which [is] on thee, and keep hold on it;' and she keepeth hold on it, and he measureth six [measures] of barley, and layeth [it] on her; and he goeth into the city.
Na Boaz el fahk nu sel, “Eisla nuknuk se ma sang afin kom ingan ac laknelik insacn.” Ke el laknelik ah Boaz el okoaung sunun paun lumngaul ke barley nu loac, ac kasrel srukak nu finpisal. Na Ruth el us folokla nu in acn el muta we ah.
16 And she cometh in unto her mother-in-law, and she saith, 'Who [art] thou, my daughter?' and she declareth to her all that the man hath done to her.
Ke el utyak nu lohm ah, Naomi el siyuk sel, “Acn nutik, fuka som lom ah?” Na Ruth el fahkang ma nukewa ma Boaz el oru nu sel.
17 And she saith, 'These six [measures] of barley he hath given to me, for he said, Thou dost not go in empty unto thy mother-in-law.'
Na el sifilpa fahk, “El mu nga in tia pisinpo foloko nu yurum, na pa el se barley inge nga in us tuku.”
18 And she saith, 'Sit still, my daughter, till thou dost know how the matter falleth, for the man doth not rest except he hath completed the matter to-day.'
Na Naomi el fahk nu sel, “Ruth, kom in muteng nwe ke kalem ma nukewa. Boaz el ac tia ku in mongla misenge nwe ke el aksafyela ma se inge.”
