Ruth 2
1 Oasr mwet se sou nu sel Naomi, el pa Boaz. El sie mwet kasrup ac yohk pac ku lal. El ma in sou lal Elimelech, mukul tumal Naomi ah.
And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband’s, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.
2 Sie len ah Ruth el fahk nu sel Naomi, “Lela nga in som nu in ima ah, ac telani kutu barley ma mwet orekma tia telak ah. Nga lulalfongi mu oasr mwet ac lela ngan ku in fahsr toko.” Na Naomi el fahk nu sel, “Fahsrot, acn nutik.”
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of grain after him in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
3 Ouinge Ruth el som nu in ima ah, ac fahsr tukun mwet orekma, ac telani ma elos sisla tia orani ah. Falyang lah ima se ma el som nu kac ah ma lal Boaz.
And she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers: and she happened to come to a part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech.
4 Ke pacl se inge Boaz el tuku Bethlehem me ac el paing mwet orekma ac fahk, “LEUM GOD Elan wi kowos!” Na elos topuk ac fahk nu sel, “LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoye kom!”
And, behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, The LORD be with you. And they answered him, The LORD bless thee.
5 Na Boaz el siyuk sin mwet se ma kol mwet orekma ah, “Su mutan fusr se ingo?”
Then said Boaz to his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose damsel is this?
6 Na mwet kol sac fahk, “Mutan sac se ma welul Naomi foloko Moab me ah.
And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi from the country of Moab:
7 El tuh siyuk ngan lela elan fahsr tukun mwet orekma inge ac sifeni ma elos sisla uh. El nuna orekma na oe ke lututang ah me nwe tufahna oru elan mongla pa inge.”
And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, that she tarried a little in the house.
8 Na Boaz el fahk nu sel Ruth, “Kolya ngan fahk nu sum, wona kom in tia som nu ke kutena ima sayen ima se inge. Wi na mutan inge orekma.
Then said Boaz to Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from here, but abide here close by my maidens:
9 Liye na acn elos kinkin we an ac welulos. Nga fahkang tari mwet luk inge in tia akkolukye kom. Ac pacl kom malu an kom fahla nim kof ke sufa ma elos nwekla ingo.”
Let thy eyes be on the field that they are reaping, and go thou after them: have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch thee? and when thou art thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have drawn.
10 Na Ruth el pasrlana nwe ten ac fahk nu sel Boaz, “Mea sis kom arulana fosrngakinyu an? Efu ku kom in arulana kulang nu sin mwetsac se?”
Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, Why have I found grace in thy eyes, that thou shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger?
11 Na Boaz el fahk, “Nga lohng tari ma nukewa kom oru nu sin nina kien mukul tomom oe ke na mukul tomom ah misa ah me. Nga etu pac lah kom fahsr liki papa tomom ac nina kiom ac acn sum, ac tuku muta inmasrlon mwet su kom tia etu.
And Boaz answered and said to her, It hath fully been shown to me, all that thou hast done to thy mother in law since the death of thy husband: and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and hast come to a people which thou knewest not before.
12 Lela tuh LEUM GOD Elan folokin nu sum orekma wo lom ingan. Lela tuh kom in eis mwe insewowo yohk sin LEUM GOD lun Israel, su kom tuku suk karinginyuk ye lulin paol!”
The LORD recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the LORD God of Israel, under whose wings thou hast come to trust.
13 Na Ruth el topuk ac fahk nu sel, “Kom arulana kulang nu sik. Insiuk misla na pwaye ke sripen kas fisrasr lom nu sik inge, nga finne pusisel liki mwet kulansap lom ingan.”
Then she said, Let me find favour in thy sight, my lord; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken kindly to thy handmaid, though I am not like one of thy handmaidens.
14 Ke pacl in mongo ah, Boaz el fahk nu sel Ruth, “Fahsru eis nom sie ipin bread inge ac twanla ke mwe anut inge.” Na el muta yurin mwet orekma, ac Boaz el sang nu sel kutu mongo manman ah, ac Ruth el mongo nwe ke na el kihpi, ac srakna oasr mongo lula yorol.
And Boaz said to her, At mealtime come thou here, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers: and he reached for her roasted grain, and she ate, and was satisfied, and left.
15 Na ke el tuyak in som in sifil telani barley ah, Boaz el fahk nu sin mwet orekma lal ah, “Lela elan tiltil in acn nukewa, finne ke acn ma yolani barley an we tari, ac nimet kutongol.
And when she had risen to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and reproach her not:
16 Ac kowos in faesla kutu barley liki kap orekeni ingan ac filiya elan telani.”
And let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them, that she may glean them, and rebuke her not.
17 Ke ma inge Ruth el til barley in ima sac nwe ke na ekela, ac ke el tokla ma inge el liye tuh na sunun paun longoul limekosr pa el orani ah.
So she gleaned in the field until evening, and beat out that which she had gleaned: and it was about an ephah of barley.
18 El us ma inge folokla nu in siti uh, ac sang Naomi elan liye lupan ma el telani ah. El oayapa sang luwen mongo nal ah nu sel.
And she took it up, and went into the city: and her mother in law saw what she had gleaned: and she brought out, and gave to her what she had reserved after she was satisfied.
19 Na Naomi el siyuk sel, “Kom eis oya ma kom telani misenge inge? Lun su ima kom som orekma we ah? Lela God Elan akinsewowoye mwet se ma kulang nu sum ingan!” Na Ruth el fahkang nu sel Naomi lah el wi orekma in ima lun mwet se pangpang Boaz.
And her mother in law said to her, Where hast thou gleaned to day? and where hast thou laboured? blessed be he that took knowledge of thee. And she showed her mother in law with whom she had wrought, and said, The man’s name with whom I wrought to day is Boaz.
20 Na Naomi el fahk, “Lela LEUM GOD Elan akinsewowoyal Boaz! Pacl nukewa LEUM GOD El akpwayeye wulela lal nu sin mwet moul ac oayapa nu sin mwet misa.” Na el sifilpa fahk, “Mukul sac sou na fototo nu sesr, ac el pa sie sin mwet fal in fosrngakin ac karingin kut uh.”
And Naomi said to her daughter in law, Blessed be he of the LORD, who hath not withheld his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said to her, The man is near of kin to us, one of our next kinsmen.
21 Na Ruth el fahk, “Boaz el fahk pac mu nga ku in wi na mwet lal ah orekma nwe ke na safla pacl in kosrani ke ima sac.”
And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, Thou shalt keep close by my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.
22 Na Naomi el fahk nu sel Ruth, “Aok, wona kom in wi na mutan ingan orekma in ima lal Boaz an. Sahp kom fin som nu in ima lun sie pacna mwet, ac tuh akkolukyeyuk kom.”
And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter in law, It is good, my daughter, that thou shouldest go out with his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field.
23 Ke ma inge Ruth el welulos na orekma nwe ke na lisr barley ac wheat in ima sac. Ac el mutana yorol Naomi.
So she kept close by the maidens of Boaz to glean to the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and dwelt with her mother in law.
