< Ruth 4 >
1 Ita, napan ni Boaz iti ruangan ket nagtugaw sadiay. Iti saan a nagbayag, simmangpet ti ibagbaga ni Boaz nga asideg a kabagian. Kinuna ni Boaz kenkuana, “Gayyem, umayka ket agtugawka ditoy.” Immasideg ti lalaki ket nagtugaw.
Then Booz went up to the gate, and sat there. And when he had seen the kinsman going by, of whom he had spoken before, he said to him, calling him by his name: Turn aside for a little while, and sit down here. He turned aside, and sat down.
2 Kalpasanna, nangayab ni Boaz iti sangapulo a panglakayen iti siudad ket kinunana, “Agtugawkayo ditoy.” Nagtugawda ngarud.
And Booz taking ten men of the ancients of the city, said to them: Sit ye down here.
3 Kinuna ni Boaz iti asideg a kabagian, “Ilaklako ni Naomi, a nagsubli manipud idiay pagilian ti Moab, ti paset ti daga a kukua ni Elimelec a kabsattayo.
They sat down, and he spoke to the kinsman: Noemi, who is returned from the country of Moab, will sell a parcel of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech.
4 Napanunotko nga ipakaammo ken ibaga kenka, 'Gatangem daytoy iti imatang dagiti agtugtugaw ditoy, ken iti imatang dagiti panglakayen dagiti tattaok.' No kayatmo a subboten, ket subbotem ngarud daytoy. Ngem no saanmo a kayat a subboten daytoy, ibagam kaniak tapno ammok, gapu ta awanen ti sabali pay a mangsubbot iti daytoy malaksid kenka, ket siak ti sumarsaruno kenka.” Ket kinuna ti lalaki, “Subbotek daytoy.”
I would have thee to understand this, and would tell thee before all that sit here, and before the ancients of my people. If thou wilt take possession of it by the right of kindred: buy it and possess it: but if it please thee not, tell me so, that I may know what I have to do. For there is no near kinsman besides thee, who art first, and me, who am second. But he answered: I will buy the field.
5 Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Boaz, “Iti kanito a gatangem ti talon manipud iti ima ni Naomi, masapul nga alaem met ni Ruth, ti Moabita nga asawa daydi natay a lalaki, tapno maitakder ti nagan ti natay iti tawidna.”
And Booz said to him: When thou shalt buy the field at the woman’s hand, thou must take also Ruth the Moabitess, who was the wife of the deceased: to raise up the name of thy kinsman in his inheritance.
6 Ket kinuna ti asideg a kabagian, “Saanko a mabalin a subboten daytoy a para kaniak gapu ta madadael ti bukodko a tawid. Alaem ti karbengak a mangsubbot, ta saankon a masubbot daytoy.”
He answered: I yield up my right of next akin: for I must not cut off the posterity of my own family. Do thou make use of my privilege, which I profess I do willingly forego.
7 Ita, daytoy ti kaugalian idi un-unana a panawen iti Israel maipanggep iti panangsubbot ken panangisukat kadagiti sanikua. Tapno mapatalgedan ti amin a banag, uksoten ti lalaki ti sapatosna ket itedna daytoy iti kaarubana; daytoy iti gagangay a wagas iti pannakitulag ti Israel.
Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe, and gave it to his neighhour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel.
8 Kinuna ngarud ti asideg a kabagian kenni Boaz, “Sika lattan ti manggatang.” Ket inuksotna ti sapatosna.
So Booz said to his kinsman: Put off thy shoe. And immediately he took it off from his foot.
9 Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Boaz kadagiti panglakayen ken kadagiti amin a tattao, “Saksikayo ita nga aldaw a ginatangkon amin a kukua ni Elimelec, ken amin a kukua da Kilion ken Mahalon manipud iti ima ni Naomi.
And he said to the ancients and to all the people: You are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and Chelion’s, and Mahalon’s, of the hand of Noemi:
10 Maysa pay, maipanggep kenni Ruth a Moabita, ti asawa ni Mahalon: alaek met isuna nga agbalin nga asawak, tapno maitakderko ti nagan ti natay iti tawidna, tapno saan a mapukaw ti naganna kadagiti kakabsatna ken iti ruangan iti lugarna. Saksikayo iti daytoy nga aldaw.”
And have taken to wife Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahalon, to raise up the name of the deceased in his inheritance lest his name be cut off, from among his family and his brethren and his people. You, I say, are witnesses of this thing.
11 Kinuna dagiti amin a tattao ken dagiti panglakayen nga adda idiay ruangan, “Saksikami. Pagbalinen koma ni Yahweh ti babai nga immay iti pagtaengam a kas kada Raquel ken Lea, dagiti dua a nangbangon ti balay ti Israel. Ket rumang-ayka koma idiay Efrata ken agdinamagka koma iti Bethlehem.
Then all the people that were in the gate, and the ancients answered: We are witnesses: The Lord make this woman who cometh into thy house, like Rachel, and Lia, who built up the house of Israel: that she may be an example of virtue in Ephrata, and may have a famous name in Bethlehem:
12 Agbalin koma ti pagtaengam a kas iti pagtaengan ni Perez, nga impasngay ni Tamar kenni Juda, babaen iti anak nga ited ni Yahweh kadakayo iti daytoy nga agtutubo a babai.”
And that the house may be, as the house of Phares, whom Thamar bore unto Juda, of the seed which the Lord shall give thee of this young woman.
13 Innala ngarud ni Boaz ni Ruth, ket nagbalin isuna nga asawana. Nakikaidda isuna kenkuana, ket impalubos ni Yahweh nga agsikog isuna, ket nangipasngay ti babai iti maysa nga anak a lalaki.
Booz therefore took Ruth, and married her: and went in unto her, and the Lord gave her to conceive and to bear a son.
14 Kinuna dagiti babbai kenni Naomi, “Madaydayaw koma ni Yahweh, a saan nangibati kenka ita nga aldaw nga awanan iti asideg a kabagian, daytoy a maladaga. Nalatakto koma ti naganna iti Israel.
And the women said to Noemi: Blessed be the Lord, who hath not suffered thy family to want a successor, that his name should be preserved in Israel.
15 Isunto koma iti mangpasubli ti biagmo ken mangpakaradkad kenka iti kinabaketmo, ta impasngay isuna ti manugangmo, a mangay-ayat kenka, a nasaysayaat kenka ngem ti pito nga annak a lallaki.”
And thou shouldst have one to comfort thy soul, and cherish thy old age. For he is born of thy daughter in law: who loveth thee: and is much better to thee, than if thou hadst seven sons.
16 Ket innala ni Naomi ti ubing, insadagna iti barukongna, ket inaywananna daytoy.
And Noemi taking the child laid it in her bosom, and she carried it, and was a nurse unto it.
17 Ket dagiti babbai, dagiti kaarubana, intedda kenkuana ti maysa a nagan, a kunada, “Adda maysa nga anak a lalaki a naiyanak kenni Naomi.” Pinanagananda isuna iti Obed. Isuna ti nagbalin nga ama ni Jesse, nga ama ni David.
And the women her neighbours, congratulating with her and saying: There is a son born to Noemi: called his name Obed: he is the father of Isai, the father of David.
18 Ita, dagitoy dagiti kaputotan ni Perez: Ni Perez ti nagbalin nga ama ni Hesron,
These are the generations of Phares: Phares begot Esron,
19 ni Hesron ket nagbalin nga ama ni Ram, ni Ram ket nagbalin nga ama ni Aminadab,
Esron begot Aram, Aram begot Aminadab,
20 ni Aminadab ket nagbalin nga ama ni Naason, ni Naason ket nagbalin nga ama ni Salmon,
Aminadab begot Nahasson, Nahasson begot Salmon,
21 ni Salmon ket nagbalin nga ama ni Boaz, ni Boaz ket nagbalin nga ama ni Obed,
Salmon begot Booz, Booz begot Obed,
22 ni Obed ket nagbalin nga ama ni Jesse, ni Jesse ti nagbalin nga ama ni David.
Obed begot Isai, Isai begot David.
