< Rite 3 >

1 Mokolo moko, Naomi, mama-bokilo ya Rite, alobaki na ye: — Mwana na ngai, nasengeli te koluka nzela mpo na bolamu na yo?
And she said to her Naomi mother-in-law her O daughter my ¿ not will I seek for you a resting place that it will go well for you.
2 Pamba te oyebi malamu ete Boazi, oyo osalaki elongo na basali na ye ya basi, azali ndeko na biso. Na pokwa ya lelo, akoyungola orje oyo basilaki kosopa na etando.
And therefore ¿ not [is] Boaz relative our whom you were with female servants his there! he [will be] winnowing [the] threshing floor of the barley this night.
3 Boye, sukola malamu nzoto na yo, pakola mafuta mpe lata bilamba na yo, oyo eleki kitoko. Bongo, okokende na etando epai wapi akobeta orje na ye; kasi sala ete Boazi ayeba te ete ozali na esika yango kino akosilisa kolia mpe komela.
And you will wash - and you will anoint yourself and you will put (garments your *Q(K)*) on yourself (and you will go down *Q(K)*) the threshing floor may not you make yourself known to the man until finishes he to eat and to drink.
4 Tango akokende kolala, okotala malamu esika nini akozala. Sima, okopusana, okolongola elamba oyo ezipi makolo na ye mpe okomilalisa wana, na makolo na ye. Ye moko akoyebisa yo makambo oyo osengeli kosala.
And let it be when lies down he and you will take note of the place where he will lie down there and you will go and you will uncover feet his (and you will lie down *Q(k)*) and he he will tell to you [that] which (you will do! *L(abh)*)
5 Rite azongiselaki ye: — Nakosala nyonso oyo oyebisi ngai.
And she said to her all that (you are saying to me *Q(K)*) I will do.
6 Bongo Rite akendeki na etando mpe asalaki makambo nyonso oyo mama-bokilo na ye ayebisaki ye.
And she went down the threshing floor and she did according to all that she had commanded her mother-in-law her.
7 Tango Boazi asilisaki kolia mpe komela, motema na ye ezalaki na esengo; akendeki kolala na suka ya mipiku ya orje. Bongo Rite apusanaki malembe-malembe, alongolaki elamba oyo ezipaki makolo ya Boazi mpe amilalisaki wana.
And he ate Boaz and he drank and it was good heart his and he went to lie down at [the] end of the heap and she came in secrecy and she uncovered feet his and she lay down.
8 Na kati-kati ya butu, tango Boazi ayokaki malili, aminyololaki mpe amonaki mwasi alali na makolo na ye.
And it was in [the] middle of the night and he trembled the man and he twisted and there! a woman [was] lying down feet his.
9 Atunaki ye: — Yo ozali nani? Azongisaki: — Ezali ngai Rite, mwasi mosali na yo. Tanda songe ya elamba na yo kino epai na ngai, pamba te ozali na ndingisa ya kosikola.
And he said who? [are] you and she said I [am] Ruth maidservant your and you will spread out skirt your over maidservant your for [are] a kinsman-redeemer you.
10 Boazi azongiselaki ye: — Tika ete Yawe apambola yo, mwana na ngai ya mwasi! Bosembo oyo otalisi sik’oyo, ezali monene koleka bosembo oyo otalisaki liboso; pamba te otambolaki te sima na bilenge mibali, ezala bazwi to babola.
And he said [be] blessed you by Yahweh O daughter my you have made good loyalty your latter more than former to not to go after the young men whether poor and or rich.
11 Mpe sik’oyo mwana na ngai ya mwasi, kobanga te; nakosalela yo nyonso oyo okosenga, pamba te bato nyonso ya esika oyo bayebi ete ozali mwasi ya malonga.
And therefore O daughter my may not you fear all that you are saying I will do for you for [is] knowing all [the] gate of people my that [are] a woman of ability you.
12 Sik’oyo, atako solo nazali na ndingisa ya kosikola, kasi ezali na mosikoli mosusu oyo azali pene na yo koleka ngai.
And therefore for truly that (*Q(K)*) [am] a kinsman-redeemer I and also there [is] a kinsman-redeemer near more than I.
13 Boye, lekisa butu awa; bongo lobi na tongo, tokotala soki moto yango akolinga kosikola yo. Soki akolinga, wana tika ye asikola yo; kasi soki aboyi, nalaki yo na Kombo na Yawe ete ngai nakosikola yo. Boye liboso ete tongo etana, lala awa.
Stay - this night and it will be in the morning if he will redeem you good let him redeem and if not he will be willing to redeem you and I will redeem you I [by] [the] life of Yahweh lie down until the morning.
14 Boye Rite alalaki na makolo na ye mpe alamukaki na tongo-tongo, wana molili ezalaki nanu kopekisa bato komonana malamu; pamba te Boazi alobaki: « Moto moko te ayeba ete mwasi moko ayaki na etando oyo. »
And she lay down (feet his *Q(K)*) until the morning and she arose (before *Q(K)*) he recognized anyone neighbor his and he said may not it be known that she came the woman the threshing floor.
15 Liboso ete akende, Boazi ayebisaki ye: « Pesa ngai elamba oyo olati, simba yango malamu. » Wana Rite asimbaki yango malamu, Boazi atielaki ye bakilo pene tuku mibale ya orje mpe asungaki ye mpo na kotombola mpe kotia yango na moto. Mpe Rite azongaki na engumba.
And he said give the shawl which [is] on you and take hold on it and she took hold on it and he measured out six barley and he put [it] on her and he came the city.
16 Tango Rite akomaki epai ya mama-bokilo na ye, Naomi atunaki ye: — Mwana na ngai ya mwasi, makambo eleki ndenge nini? Boye Rite ayebisaki ye makambo oyo Boazi asalaki mpo na ye.
And she came to mother-in-law her and she said who? [are] you O daughter my and she told to her all that he had done for her the man.
17 Mpe abakisaki: « Apesaki ngai kutu bakilo tuku mibale ya orje oyo, pamba te ayebisaki ngai: ‹ Kozonga maboko pamba te epai ya mama-bokilo na yo. › »
And she said [the] six the barley these he gave to me for (he said to me *Q(K)*) may not you go empty to mother-in-law your.
18 Bongo Naomi alobaki na ye: — Sik’oyo mwana na ngai ya mwasi, vanda awa kino okomona ndenge makambo oyo ekosuka; pamba te mobali wana akozala na kimia te kino akosilisa likambo oyo, kaka na mokolo ya lelo.
And she said sit down O daughter my until that you will know! how? will it fall out a matter for not he will be at peace the man that except he has finished the matter this day.
