Rut 3
1 Hagi mago zupa Naomi'a nenofero Rutinkura amanage huno asmi'ne, Mofa'nimoke, venema tragotenka noma mani'sana vahera nagra hakre'na kegantesugeno kagrira kegava huganteno kagu vazisigenka knare hunka manigahane.
One day, Naomi said to Ruth, “My daughter, I think that I should [RHQ] try to arrange for you to have a husband [MTY] who will (take care of/provide for) you.
2 Menina Boasi eri'za mofa'ne zagane tragotenka eri'za eri'nana nera, tagri tvate knampatie. Ko! Meni keragera, bali raga hare kuma tro hunte'nere bali raga akru haregahie.
Boaz, the man with whose [servant] girls you have been [gathering grain], is a close relative [of our dead husbands]. Listen [carefully]. Tonight he will be at the ground where [the barley has] been threshed. He will be separating the barley grain from the chaff.
3 Hagi kagra ti fretenka, mna nevia msave kvufarera nefrenka, knare kukenaka'a kvate eri hutenka, bali rgama hare kumate uraminka vuo. Hianagi, ana ne'mofo avurega osunka ufraki'negeno ne'zane, tinena nevaga reno.
Bathe yourself and put on some perfume. Put on your [best] clothes. Then go down to the ground where they have threshed [the grain]. But do not let Boaz know that you are there while he is eating [supper] and drinking.
4 Hagi agra retro huno vaseku'ma hanigenka, vsesia kumara ke ankerenka, inante masesifi kavua ketenka, agiarega omeri vakarenka umase'negeno, mago'azama husana zana kasamigahie.
[When he has finished eating], notice where he lies down to sleep. Then [when he is asleep], take the blanket off his feet and lie [close to his feet]. [When he wakes up], he will tell you what to do.”
5 Ruti'a, ke nona huno Naomina asmi'ne, Hakare kema nasmina zana, nagra amne hugahue.
Ruth replied, “I will do everything that you have told me [to do].”
6 Higeno Ruti'a, bali raga hare kumate vuno nenofero'ma maka asmino, e'ina huo huno asmi'nea kante ana hu'ne.
So she went down to the ground where they had threshed [the barley grain]. There she did everything that her mother-in-law had told her [to do].
7 Boasi'a ne'zama'a nehna huteno muse nehuno, bali rgama eri kevu vazinte'pinka mago asoparega umse'ne. Anante Ruti'a tkaureno ako heno, Boasi agarega frankera omeri zakeno umase'ne.
When Boaz finished eating [supper] and drinking [wine], he felt happy. Then he went over to the far end of the pile of grain. He lay down [and went to sleep]. Then Ruth approached him quietly. She took the blanket off his feet and lay down [there].
8 Mase'nereti kerage amu'nompi mase rukrahe huku nehuno, anante keana mago a'mo agri agiarega mase'negeno keteno antri hu'ne.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly awoke. He sat up and saw that a woman was lying at his feet.
9 Boasi'a anage hu'ne, Kagra azage? Huno antahigegeno, ke nona'a anage hu'ne, Nagra Ruti'ne, kagri eri'za aki, a' navrento, na'ankure tagri naga nofi'mokizmi zamesi'zana, kagra Elimelekina mago korankinka, kagrake taza hugahane.
He asked her, “Who are you?” She replied, “I am your servant, Ruth. Since you are the one who has a responsibility to take care of [someone like me whose dead husband was] your close relative, spread the corner of your cloak over my [feet to show that you will marry me].”
10 Boasi'a anage hu'ne, Mofa'nimoka Anumzamo'a asomu hugantegahie. Kagra vagare museza hu'naverina zamo'a, pusante musezana agatere, kasefa verero, fenoma'a me'nea netero, fenoma'a omne netera, a' erigantenogura zamaririnka vono osu'nane. (Diut Kas 25:5-10)
Boaz replied, “Young lady, I hope that Yahweh will (bless/be kind to) you! You have acted kindly [toward your mother-in-law], and now you are acting even more kindly [toward me by wanting to marry me, instead of wanting to marry a young man]. You have not looked for either a rich young man or a poor young man, [to marry him].
11 Menina mofa'nimoka korera osuo, maka zanku'ma nantahigesanke'na, nagra amne hugantegahue. Na'ankure hakare ra kumapi vahe'nimo'za hago knare kavukva ene a' mani'nane hu'za kage'za antahiza hu'naze.
Now, young lady, I will do everything you ask. Don’t worry [that people in this town might think I am doing wrong by marrying you because you are a woman from Moab]. All the people in this town know that you are an honorable woman.
12 Menina tamage, nagra kvate vaheka'a mani'noe. Hianagi, nagrira nagatereno magora tamazahu nera mani'ne.
But [there is one problem]. Although it is true that I am a close relative [of your mother-in-law’s dead husband], there is another man who is a closer relative [than I am], and therefore he should be the one to [marry you and] take care of you.
13 Hagi meni kenagera ama anante masenegeno, masa hinkena nanterampi a' erigantegahue haniana knare hugahianki, atregeno agra ana hino. Hianagi anama osugahue'ma haniana, nagra tamage hu'na huvempa nehue, Ra Anumzama mani'negu nagra ara erigantegahue. Amare mase'negeno ko atino.
You stay here for the rest of this night. Tomorrow morning [I will tell this man about you]. If he says that he will [marry you and] take care of you, fine, [we will] let him do that. But if he is not willing [to do that], I solemnly promise that as surely as Yahweh lives, I will [marry you and] take care of you. So lie/sleep here until it is morning.”
14 Higeno Ruti'a agafi mase'nereti, masa osu'negeno ko'atu hanimpi vahe'mo onke'are vu'ne. Boasi'a otino amanahu ke asami'ne, mago a'mo bali raga hare kumapi eno emasenereti vie, kea ontahitfa hiho.
So she lay at his feet until morning. But she got up and left before it was light enough that people would be able to recognize her, because Boaz said, “I do not want anyone to know that a woman was here.”
15 Nago'ane agra anage hu'ne, amega kavufare'ma ruvanare'nana kena eritarenka azeri hampona huo, higeno azerigeno, 6si'a zupa balia herfi anteno anakino afunte kofi ante'ne. Ana huteno Boasi'a ra kumapi ufre'ne.
He also said to her, “Bring to me your cloak and spread it out.” When she did that, he poured into it six measures/24 liters/50 pounds of barley, and put in on her back. Then he (OR, she) went back to the town.
16 Ruti'a nenoferontega uhanatigeno, Naomi'a antahige'ne, Mikazamo'a inankna hugante'ne, mofa'nimoka? Higeno Ruti'a, maka'zama Boasi'ma hunte'nea zana asmi'ne.
When Ruth arrived home, her mother-in-law asked her, “My daughter, how did (things go/Boaz act toward you)?” Then Ruth told her everything that Boaz had done for her [and said to her].
17 Ruti'a anage hu'ne, Ana bali rgamofona, 27ni'a kilo naza kna'amo'a hu'nea, herfinteno nenamino anage hu'ne, Neganoferontega vusunka, kza avapara ovugahane hu'ne.
She also said [to Naomi], “He gave me all this barley, saying ‘I do not want you to return to your mother-in-law empty-handed.’”
18 Hagi anante Naomi'a anage hu'ne, Akohenka mofa'nimoka avega ante'nenka ko, naza fore hugahifi. Na'ankure ana ne'mo'a mani fru osu'neno ana kna'zana mensi eri ante fru hugahie.
Then Naomi said, “My daughter, just wait until we see what happens. [I am sure that] Boaz will take care of [LIT] the matter [of your marriage]. [LIT]”
