1 Un Boas gāja vārtos un tur apsēdās, un redzi, tas tuvinieks gāja garām, no kā Boas bija runājis. Tad viņš sacīja: nāc, brāl, apsēdies še. Un tas nāca un apsēdās.
Now Boaz went up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spake came by; unto whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.
2 Un viņš ņēma desmit vīrus no pilsētas vecajiem un sacīja: apsēžaties šeitan, un tie apsēdās.
And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit ye down here. And they sat down.
3 Tad viņš uz to tuvinieku sacīja: to tīruma gabalu, kas mūsu brālim Elimelekam piederēja, Naēmja, kas no Moaba zemes atnākusi, grib pārdot.
And he said unto the near kinsman, Naomi, that is come again out of the country of Moab, selleth the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s:
4 Un es apņēmos to tev sacīt, proti: pērc viņu to iedzīvotāju un manu ļaužu vecaju priekšā. Ja tu to gribi pirkt, tad pērc, bet ja tu nepirksi, tad saki man, ka es to zinu, jo cita nav, kam nākas to pirkt, bez manis un tevis. Tad tas sacīja: es pirkšu.
And I thought to disclose it unto thee, saying, Buy it before them that sit here, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem it: but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know: for there is none to redeem it beside thee; and I am after thee. And he said, I will redeem it.
5 Un Boas sacīja: tai dienā kad tu to tīrumu no Naēmjas pērc, tad tev arī Ruti, to Moabieti, tā nomirušā sievu, būs precēt, un celt tā nomirušā vārdu par viņa zemes daļu.
Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.
6 Tad tas tuvinieks sacīja: es nevaru to priekš sevis pirkt, lai savu paša mantību nemaitāju; pērc tu, kas man nākas pirkt, jo es to nevaru atpirkt.
And the near kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I mar mine own inheritance: take thou my right of redemption on thee; for I cannot redeem it.
7 Nu tas vecos laikos bija tiesa iekš Israēla pie pirkšanas un pie mīšanas, apstiprināt ikkatru līgumu: vīrs novilka savu kurpi un to deva savam tuvākam, un tas bija par liecību iekš Israēla.
Now this was [the custom] in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, for to confirm all things; a man drew off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbour: and this was the [manner of] attestation in Israel.
8 Tad šis tuvinieks sacīja uz Boasu: pērc tu priekš sevis! Un novilka savu kurpi.
So the near kinsman said unto Boaz, Buy it for thyself. And he drew off his shoe.
9 Un Boas sacīja uz tiem vecajiem un uz visiem ļaudīm: jūs šodien esat liecinieki, ka no Naēmjas rokas visu esmu pircis, kas Elimelekam, un visu, kas Ķiljonam un Mālonam piederēja.
And Boaz said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, of the hand of Naomi.
10 Un arī Ruti, to Moabieti, Mālona sievu, es sev precēšu par sievu, un celšu tā nomirušā vārdu par viņa zemes daļu, ka tā nomirušā vārds netop izdeldēts no viņa brāļiem un no viņa pilsētas vārtiem, - jūs esat šodien liecinieki.
Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.
11 Tad visi ļaudis, kas bija vārtos, līdz ar tiem vecajiem sacīja: mēs esam liecinieki. Lai Tas Kungs šo sievu, kas nāk tavā namā, dara kā Rahēli un Leū, kas abas Israēla namu vairojušas, un lai tevi stiprina Efratā un tev dara slavu Bētlemē.
And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that is come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Beth-lehem:
12 Un tavs nams lai ir, kā Pereca nams, ko Tamāre Jūdam dzemdējusi, no tā dzimuma, ko Tas Kungs tev dos no šīs jaunās sievas.
and let thy house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bare unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this young woman.
13 Tad Boas ņēma Ruti, un tā viņam bija par sievu, un viņš pie tās gāja, un Tas Kungs viņai deva, ka tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu.
So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife; and he went in unto her, and the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.
14 Tad tās sievas sacīja uz Naēmju: svētīts lai ir Tas Kungs, kas tev neliek trūkt tuvinieka šodien; un Viņa Vārds lai top slavēts iekš Israēla!
And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which hath not left thee this day without a near kinsman, and let his name be famous in Israel.
15 Un tas tev būs par dvēseles atspirdzinātāju un par kopēju vecumā, jo tava vedekla, ko tu mīļo, viņu dzemdējusi, kas tev ir labāka, nekā septiņi dēli.
And he shall be unto thee a restorer of life, and a nourisher of thine old age: for thy daughter in law, which loveth thee, which is better to thee than seven sons, hath borne him.
16 Un Naēmja ņēma to bērniņu un lika to savā klēpī un bija viņa aukle.
And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse unto it.
17 Un kaimiņienes viņam deva vārdu sacīdamas: Naēmjai dēls dzimis, un tie nosauca viņa vārdu Obedu, šis ir Isajus Dāvida tēva, tēvs:
And the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi; and they called his name Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 Šie nu ir Pereca dzimumi:
Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez begat Hezron;
19 Perecs dzemdināja Hecronu, un Hecrons dzemdināja Ramu, un Rams dzemdināja Aminadabu,
and Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminadab;
20 Un Aminadabs dzemdināja Nahšonu, un Nahšons dzemdināja Zalmu,
and Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon;
21 Un Zalmus dzemdināja Boasu, un Boas dzemdināja Obedu,
and Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed;
22 Un Obeds dzemdināja Isaju, un Isajus dzemdināja Dāvidu.
and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
