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 Naomi has an acquaintance of her husband’s, a man mighty in wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name [is] Boaz.
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 says to Naomi, “Please let me go into the field, and I gather among the ears of grain after him in whose eyes I find grace”; and she says to 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 goes and comes and gathers in a field after the reapers, and her chance happens—the portion of the field is Boaz’s who [is] 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, Boaz has come from Beth-Lehem, and says to the reapers, “YHWH [is] with you”; and they say to him, “YHWH blesses you.”
5 Bòz mande kontwòlè a: -Ki jenn ti madanm sa a?
And Boaz says to his young man who is set over the reapers, “Whose [is] this young person?”
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 who is set over the reapers answers and says, “A young woman—Moabitess—she [is], who came back with Naomi from 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 says, Please let me glean and I have gathered among the sheaves after the reapers; and she comes and remains since the morning and until now; she sat in the house a little [while].”
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.
And Boaz says to Ruth, “Have you not heard, my daughter? Do not go to glean in another field, and also, do not pass over from here, and thus you cleave to my young women:
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.
your eyes [are] on the field which they reap, and you have gone after them; have I not charged the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty then you have gone to the vessels, and have drunk from that which the young men 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?
And she falls on her face, and bows herself to the earth, and says to him, “Why have I found grace in your eyes, to discern me, and I 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.
And Boaz answers and says to her, “It has been thoroughly declared to me all that you have done with your mother-in-law, after the death of your husband, and you leave your father, and your mother, and the land of your birth, and come to a people which you have not known 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!
YHWH repays your work, and your reward is complete from YHWH, God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
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.
And she says, “Let me find grace in your eyes, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken to the heart of your maidservant, and I am not as one of your maidservants.”
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 Boaz says to her, “At meal-time come near here, and you have eaten of the bread, and dipped your morsel in the vinegar.” And she sits at the side of the reapers, and he reaches to her roasted grain, and she eats, and is satisfied, and leaves.
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.
And she rises to glean, and Boaz charges his young men, saying, “Even between the sheaves she gleans, and you do not cause her to blush;
16 Okontrè, rache kèk tèt nan pakèt mare yo, lage yo atè pou l' ka ranmase. Pa di l' anyen, tande!
and also you surely cast to her of the handfuls—and have left, and she has gleaned, and you do not push against 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.
And she gleans in the field until the evening, and beats out that which she has gleaned, and it is 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 takes [it] up, and goes into the city, and her mother-in-law sees that which she has gleaned, and she brings out and gives to her that which she left from her satiety.
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 says to her, “Where have you gleaned today? And where have you worked? May he who is discerning you be blessed.” And she declares to her mother-in-law with whom she has worked, and says, “The name of the man with whom I have worked today [is] Boaz.”
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.
And Naomi says to her daughter-in-law, “Blessed [is] he of YHWH who has not forsaken His kindness with the living and with the dead”; and Naomi says to her, “The man is a relation of ours; he [is] of our redeemers.”
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 says, “Also he surely said to me, Near the young people whom I have you cleave until they have completed the whole of the harvest which I have.”
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.
And Naomi says to her daughter-in-law Ruth, “Good, my daughter, that you go out with his young women, and they do not come against you in another 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.
And she cleaves to the young women of Boaz to glean, until the completion of the barley-harvest, and of the wheat-harvest, and she dwells with her mother-in-law.
