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?

Potom reèe joj Nojemina svekrva njezina: kæeri moja, ne treba li da ti potražim poèinka, da bi ti dobro bilo?

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,

Evo, nije li nam rod Voz, kod kojega si bila s djevojkama njegovijem? evo, on æe ovu noæ vijati jeèam na gumnu.

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;

Umij se dakle, i namaži se, i obuci haljine svoje na se, pa idi na gumno; ali da ne dozna za te èovjek dokle ne jede i ne napije se.

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.'

Pa kad legne, zapamti mjesto gdje legne, pa onda otidi i digni pokrivaè s nogu njegovijeh, te lezi ondje; a on æe ti kazati šta æeš raditi.

5 And she saith unto her, 'All that thou sayest — I do.'

A Ruta joj reèe: što mi god kažeš, uèiniæu.

6 And she goeth down [to] the threshing-floor, and doth according to all that her mother-in-law commanded her

I otide na gumno i uèini sve što joj zapovjedi svekrva.

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.

A Voz jedavši i pivši i proveselivši se otide te leže kod stoga; a ona doðe polako, podiže pokrivaè s nogu njegovijeh i leže.

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.

A kad bi oko ponoæi trže se èovjek i obrnu se, a gle, žena ležaše kod nogu njegovijeh.

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.'

I on joj reèe: ko si? Odgovori: ja sam Ruta sluškinja tvoja; raširi krilo svoje na sluškinju svoju, jer si mi osvetnik.

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.

A on reèe: Gospod da te blagoslovi, kæeri moja; ova potonja milost koju mi pokazuješ veæa je od prve, što nijesi tražila mladiæa, ni siromašna ni bogata.

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.

Zato sada, kæeri moja, ne boj se; što god reèeš uèiniæu ti; jer zna cijelo mjesto naroda mojega da si poštena žena.

12 And now, surely, true, that I [am] a redeemer, but also there is a redeemer nearer than I.

Jest istina, ja sam ti osvetnik; ali ima jošte bliži od mene.

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.'

Prenoæi ovdje; pa sjutra ako te htjedbude uzeti, dobro, neka uzme; ako li ne htjedbude uzeti, ja æu te uzeti, tako živ bio Gospod! Spavaj do jutra.

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.'

I ona spava kod nogu njegovijeh do jutra; potom usta dok još ne mogaše èovjek èovjeka raspoznati, jer Voz reèe: da se ne dozna da je žena dolazila na gumno.

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.

I reèe: daj ogrtaè koji imaš na sebi; i drži ga. I ona ga podrža, a on joj izmjeri šest mjerica jeèma, i naprti joj i ona otide u grad.

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.

I doðe svekrvi svojoj, koja joj reèe: šta bi, kæeri moja? A ona joj kaza sve što joj uèini onaj èovjek.

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.'

I reèe: ovijeh šest mjerica jeèma dade mi, jer mi reèe: nemoj se vratiti prazna k svekrvi svojoj.

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.'

A ona joj reèe: poèekaj, kæeri moja, dok doznaš kako æe izaæi; jer onaj èovjek neæe se smiriti dok ne svrši stvar danas.
