Rutes 3
1 Un Naēmja, viņas vīramāte, uz viņu sacīja: mana meita, vai es tev lai nemeklēju dusas vietu, kur tev labi klājās.
Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, “My daughter, shall I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?
2 Nu tad, vai Boas, pie kura kalponēm tu esi turējusies, nav no mūsu tuviem radiem? Redzi, šo nakti viņš vētīs miežus klonā.
Now isn’t Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens you were? Behold, he will be winnowing barley tonight on the threshing floor.
3 Tad nu mazgājies un svaidies un apvelc savas drēbes un noej uz to klonu, un neparādies tam vīram, kamēr viņš beidzis ēst un dzert.
Therefore wash yourself, anoint yourself, get dressed, and go down to the threshing floor; but don’t make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.
4 Un kad viņš apguļas, tad ņem to vietu vērā, kur viņš apgulsies, un pieej un atsedz viņa kājgalu, un apgulies, tad viņš tev sacīs, kas tev būs jādara.
It shall be, when he lies down, that you shall note the place where he is lying. Then you shall go in, uncover his feet, and lie down. Then he will tell you what to do.”
5 Un viņa uz to sacīja: visu, ko tu man esi sacījusi, to es darīšu.
She said to her, “All that you say, I will do.”
6 Tā viņa nogāja uz to klonu un darīja, tā kā viņas vīramāte viņai bija pavēlējusi.
She went down to the threshing floor, and did everything that her mother-in-law told her.
7 Kad nu Boas bija ēdis un dzēris, un viņa sirds bija līksma, tad viņš gāja apgulties aiz gubas. Tad viņa nāca klusiņām un atsedza viņa kājgalu un apgūlās.
When Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. She came softly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
8 Un nakts vidū tas vīrs izbijās, un palocījās, un redzi, viena sieviete gulēja viņam kājgalā.
At midnight, the man was startled and turned himself; and behold, a woman lay at his feet.
9 Un viņš sacīja: kas tu esi? Un tā sacīja: es esmu Rute, tava kalpone, izplēt savus spārnus pār savu kalponi, jo tu esi tas tuvinieks.
He said, “Who are you?” She answered, “I am Ruth your servant. Therefore spread the corner of your garment over your servant; for you are a near kinsman.”
10 Un viņš sacīja: esi svētīta no Tā Kunga, mana meita! Šī tava pēdējā mīlība ir labāka, nekā tā pirmā, tāpēc ka tu neesi dzinusies pakaļ jaunekļiem, nedz bagātam, nedz nabagam.
He said, “You are blessed by the LORD, my daughter. You have shown more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, because you didn’t follow young men, whether poor or rich.
11 Un nu, mana meita, nebīsties! Visu, ko tu esi sacījusi, es tev darīšu; jo visos manu ļaužu vārtos ir zināms, ka tu esi godīga sieva.
Now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do to you all that you say; for all the city of my people knows that you are a worthy woman.
12 Nu tas gan ir tiesa, ka esmu tuvinieks, bet tur ir vēl viens jo tuvāks nekā es.
Now it is true that I am a near kinsman. However, there is a kinsman nearer than I.
13 Paliec šo nakti, un rītu, ja viņš tevi ņems, labi, lai viņš tevi ņem; bet ja viņam negribās tevi ņemt, tad es tevi apņemšu, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo. Guli līdz rītam.
Stay this night, and in the morning, if he will perform for you the part of a kinsman, good. Let him do the kinsman’s duty. But if he will not do the duty of a kinsman for you, then I will do the duty of a kinsman for you, as the LORD lives. Lie down until the morning.”
14 Tad tā apgūlās viņam kājgalā līdz rītam un uzcēlās, pirms viens otru varēja pazīt, jo viņš sacīja: lai netop zināms, ka sieviete ir klonā nākusi.
She lay at his feet until the morning, then she rose up before one could discern another. For he said, “Let it not be known that the woman came to the threshing floor.”
15 Un viņš sacīja: dod šurp savu apsegu, kas tev ir klātu, un turi to; un viņa to turēja. Un viņš mēroja sešus mērus miežu un uzlika tos viņai, un gāja pilsētā.
He said, “Bring the mantle that is on you, and hold it.” She held it; and he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her; then he went into the city.
16 Tad viņa nāca pie savas vīramātes, un tā sacīja: kā klājās, mana meita? Un tā viņai teica visu, ko tas vīrs viņai bija darījis.
When she came to her mother-in-law, she said, “How did it go, my daughter?” She told her all that the man had done for her.
17 Viņa arī sacīja: šos sešus (mērus) miežu viņš man devis, jo viņš uz mani sacīja: tev tukšai nebūs nākt pie savas vīramātes.
She said, “He gave me these six measures of barley; for he said, ‘Don’t go empty to your mother-in-law.’”
18 Tad viņa sacīja, paliec klusu, mana meita, kamēr tu zini, kā šī lieta izdosies, jo tas vīrs nedosies mierā, bet šo lietu šodien izvedīs galā.
Then she said, “Wait, my daughter, until you know what will happen; for the man will not rest until he has settled this today.”
