< Rit 2 >
1 Naomi te gen yon fanmi mari l' yo te rele Bòz. Se te yon nonm ki te rich epi ki te grannèg. Li te fè pati menm branch fanmi ak Elimelèk, defen mari Naomi an.
And Na'omi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty, valiant man, of the family of Elimelech, whose name was Bo'az.
2 Rit, fanm peyi Moab la, di Naomi konsa: -Kite m' ale nan jaden yo pou m' ranmase tèt lòj moun k'ap ranmase rekòt yo kite tonbe atè. M'a jwenn yon moun ki va kite m' ranmase nan jaden li. Naomi reponn li: -Ale non, mafi.
And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Na'omi, Let me go, I pray thee, into the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose eyes I shall find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter.
3 Se konsa, Rit leve, li al nan jaden yo, li pran mache dèyè travayè yo, li t'ap ranmase tèt lòj yo te kite tonbe atè. Chans pou li, li rive nan yon jaden ki te pou Bòz, fanmi Elimelèk la.
And she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and the accident happened to her, that it was a part of the field belonging unto Bo'az, who was of the family of Elimelech.
4 Li te la depi kèk tan lè Bòz rive soti Betleyèm. Li di travayè yo bonjou, li di yo: -Seyè a avèk nou! Yo reponn li: -benediksyon Seyè a avè ou tou!
And, behold, Bo'az came from Beth-lechem, and he said unto the reapers, The Lord be with you. And they said unto him, May the Lord bless thee.
5 Bòz mande kontwòlè a: -Ki jenn ti madanm sa a?
Then said Bo'az unto his young man that was appointed over the reapers, Whose maiden is this?
6 Nonm lan reponn: -Se yon fi moun lòt peyi li ye. Se li menm ki te vini ansanm ak Naomi lè li te tounen soti nan peyi Moab.
And the young man that was appointed over the reapers answered and said, It is a Moabitish maiden that is returned with Na'omi out of the fields of Moab;
7 Li te mande m' pou m' kite l' mache dèyè travayè yo ranmase tèt lòj ki tonbe atè yo. L'ap degaje l' la a depi maten. Li fèk sispann pou l' pran yon ti repo anba tonèl lan la a.
And she said, Let me glean, I pray you, and gather among the sheaves after the reapers: so she came, and hath remained ever from the morning even until now; it is but a little while that she hath sat down in the house.
8 Lè sa a, Bòz di Rit konsa: -M'ap ba ou yon ti konsèy, tande, mafi. Ou pa bezwen ale nan lòt jaden pou ranmase tèt lòj. Ou mèt rete nan jaden sa a, bò medam yo ki isit la.
Then said Bo'az unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go away from this; but keep close company with my own maidens.
9 Gade tout kote y'ap travay nan jaden an, fè dèyè yo, rete ak yo. Mwen bay mesye m' yo lòd pou yo pa anbete ou. Chak fwa w'a swaf dlo, ou mèt al bwè nan kannari yo plen pou sa.
Let thy eyes be on the field which they may reap, and go thou after them; behold, I have charged the young men that they shall not touch thee: and when thou art thirsty, go unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men may draw.
10 Rit bese tèt li jouk atè devan Bòz. Li di l' konsa: -Poukisa w'ap bay kò ou tout traka sa a pou mwen? Poukisa w'ap fè tout bagay sa a pou yon moun ki pa menm ras avè ou?
Thereupon she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in thy eyes, that thou shouldst take cognizance of me, seeing I am but a stranger?
11 Bòz reponn li: -Yo di m' tou sa ou te fè pou bèlmè ou depi mari ou mouri a. Mwen konnen ou kite manman ou, papa ou ak peyi kote ou moun lan, ou vin viv nan mitan yon lòt pèp ou pa t' janm konnen anvan.
But Bo'az answered and said unto her, It hath fully been told me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother-in-law after the death of thy husband; and how thou hast forsaken thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy birth, and art come unto a people which thou knewest not yesterday or the day before.
12 Mwen mande Seyè a pou li rekonpanse ou pou tou sa ou te fè. Wi. Ou vini mete ou anba zèl li pou l' pwoteje ou. Se pou Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ba ou yon bèl rekonpans!
May the Lord recompense thy work, and may thy reward be complete from the Lord the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to seek shelter.
13 Rit reponn li: -Ou pa konn sa ou fè la a pou mwen, msye! Jan ou pale byen avè m' la a, sa ban m' kouraj, malgre mwen pa vo yonn nan medam k'ap sèvi avè ou yo.
Then said she, Let me find grace in thy eyes, my lord; for thou hast comforted me, and because thou hast spoken [kindly] unto the heart of thy handmaid, though I be not like one of thy handmaids.
14 Lè lè pou yo manje a rive, Bòz di Rit konsa: -Pwoche non! Pran yon moso pen, tranpe l' nan sòs vinèg la pou ou manje! Se konsa Rit vin chita ansanm ak lòt travayè yo. Bòz te ba li kèk grenn lòj griye tou. Rit manje plen vant li, epi rès manje ki te rete a, li sere l'.
And Bo'az said unto her, At mealtime come near hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she seated herself beside the reapers: and he reached her parched corn, and she ate, and was satisfied, and had some left.
15 Lè Rit leve al ranmase, Bòz bay travayè yo lòd sa a: -Nou mèt kite l' ranmase grenn menm kote pakèt mare yo ye a. Pa chache l' kont.
Then did she arise to glean: and Bo'az commanded his young men, saying, Even between the sheaves let her glean, and do not cause her to feel any shame;
16 Okontrè, rache kèk tèt nan pakèt mare yo, lage yo atè pou l' ka ranmase. Pa di l' anyen, tande!
And ye shall also draw out some for her from the bundles on purpose, and leave it, that she may glean it, and ye shall not rebuke her.
17 Se konsa Rit rete ranmase grap lòj nan jaden an jouk solèy kouche. Lè li fin bat tèt lòj yo, li jwenn sa ki te manke l' pou l' te gen vennsenk ti mamit la pa t' anyen.
So she gleaned in the field until the evening; and when she beat out what she had gleaned, it was about an ephah of barley.
18 Li pran grenn lòj li yo, li tounen lavil, li moutre bèlmè li tou sa li te ranmase. Li ba li tou rès manje ki te rete lè l' te fin manje a.
And she took it up, and she went into the city; and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought forth and gave to her what she had left over after she was satisfied.
19 Naomi mande l': -Kote ou ranmase tout lòj sa a jòdi a? Nan jaden ki moun ou t'ap travay, en? Se pou Bondye beni moun ki fè sa pou ou a! Lè sa a, Rit di bèlmè li konsa li t'ap travay nan jaden yon msye yo rele Bòz.
And her mother-in-law said unto her, Where hast thou gleaned today? and where hast thou wrought? may he that took cognizance of thee be blessed. And she told her mother-in-law with whom she had wrought, and said, The name of the man with whom I wrought today is Bo'az.
20 Naomi di bèlfi li a: -benediksyon Seyè a pou Bòz! Wi. Seyè a ap toujou kenbe pawòl li, nou te mèt vivan, nou te mèt mouri! Naomi di ankò: -Nonm sa a, se yon fanmi pre nou li ye. Se yonn nan moun ki reskonsab defann enterè fanmi an.
Then said Na'omi unto her daughter-in-law, Blessed be he unto the Lord, who hath not withheld his kindness from the living and from the dead. And Na'omi said unto her, The man is nearly related unto us, he is one of our next kinsmen.
21 Lè sa a, Rit di konsa: -Men sa l' di m' ankò: Se pou m' rete ranmase tèt lòj ansanm ak travayè li yo jouk rekòt la fini.
And Ruth the Moabitess said, He hath also said unto me, Thou shalt keep close company with my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.
22 Naomi reponn li: -Wi, pitit mwen! Pito ou rete travay avèk medam yo nan jaden Bòz la, tande. Si ou ale nan jaden lòt moun, malè ka rive ou.
Then said Na'omi unto Ruth her daughter-in-law, It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, and that men may not meet with thee in any other field.
23 Se konsa, Rit rete ansanm avèk medam k'ap travay ak Bòz yo. Li t'ap ranmase tèt lòj jouk travayè yo te fin rekòlte tout lòj la ak tout ble a. Li t'ap viv tout tan sa a ak bèlmè li toujou.
So she kept close company with the maidens of Bo'az in gleaning until the end of the barley-harvest and of the wheat-harvest; and she dwelt with her mother-in-law.
