Rota 2
1 Ary nisy havan’ ny vadin’ i Naomy avy amin’ ny fokon’ i Elimeleka, lehilahy mpanjatobe, Boaza no anarany.
Now Naomi had a relative of her husband, a worthy man of the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.
2 Ary hoy Rota, vehivavy Moabita, tamin’ i Naomy: Aoka aho hankany an-tsaha mba hitsimpona salohim-bary eo aorian’ izay hahitako fitia eo imasony. Dia hoy izy taminy: Andeha ary, anaka.
Ruth, the Moabite woman, said to Naomi, “Now let me go and glean what remains among the ears of grain in the fields. I will follow anyone in whose eyes I will find favor.” So Naomi said to her, “Go, my daughter.”
3 Dia lasa nandeha izy ka nitsimpona tany an-tsaha teo aorian’ ny mpijinja; ary sendra tonga tany amin’ ny tanimbarin’ i Boaza, izay avy amin’ ny fokon’ i Elimeleka, izy.
Ruth went and gleaned what remained in the fields after they had harvested it. She happened to come to the portion of the fields belonging to Boaz, who was of the clan of Elimelek.
4 Ary, indro, Boaza tonga avy tany Betlehema ka niteny tamin’ ny mpijinja hoe: Jehovah anie ho aminareo. Dia hoy kosa Ireo taminy: Hitahy anao anie Jehovah.
Behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said to the reapers, “May Yahweh be with you.” They answered him, “May Yahweh bless you.”
5 Dia hoy Boaza tamin’ ny zatovony, izay nitandrina ny mpijinja: Zanak’ iza moa io zazavavy io?
Then Boaz said to his servant who was supervising the reapers, “What man does this young woman belong to?”
6 Dia namaly ilay zatovo nitandrina ny mpijinja ka nanao hoe: Zazavavy Moabita, izay niverina nomba an’ i Naomy avy tany amin’ ny tany Moaba io;
The servant supervising the reapers answered and said, “It is the young Moabite woman who came back with Naomi from the land of Moab.
7 fa hoy izy: Masìna ianao aoka aho hitsimpona sy hanangona eo aorian’ ny mpijinja eny anelanelan’ ny amboara; dia tonga izy ka nijanona teto hatramin’ ny maraina ka mandraka ankehitriny; kely foana no nitoerany tao an-trano.
She said to me, 'Please let me glean what remains in the field after the workers harvest the crop.' So she came here and has continued from the morning until now, except that she rested a little in the house.”
8 Dia hoy Boaza tamin’ i Rota: Tsy mandre va ianao, anaka? Aza mandeha hitsimpona any an-tanimbary hafa na miala eto ianao, fa mitoera eto anilan’ ny zatovovavy.
Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Are you listening to me, my daughter? Do not go and glean in another field; do not leave my field. Instead, stay here and work with my young female workers.
9 Aoka ny masonao ho amin’ ny tanimbary izay jinjany, ka manaraha eo aoriany ianao: tsy efa nodidiako va ny zatovo tsy haninona anao? Ary raha mangetaheta ianao, mankanesa eroa amin’ ny siny, ka misotroa amin’ izay antsakain’ ny zatovo.
Keep your eyes only on the field where the men are reaping and follow behind the other women. Have I not instructed the men not to touch you? Whenever you are thirsty, you may go to the waterpots and drink the water that the men have drawn.”
10 Dia niondrika sy niankohoka tamin’ ny tany Rota ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana no mba ahitako fitia eto imasonao sy itsinjovanao ahy, nefa vahiny ihany aho?
Then she bowed down before Boaz, touching her face to the ground. She said to him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you should be concerned about me, a foreigner?”
11 Dia namaly Boaza ka nanao taminy hoe: Efa reko tsara izay rehetra nataonao tamin’ ny rafozanao-vavy hatrizay nahafatesan’ ny vadinao sy ny nahafoizanao ny rainao sy ny reninao mbamin’ ny tany nahaterahanao sy nankanesanao atỳ amin’ ny firenena tsy mbola fantatrao.
Boaz answered and said to her, “It has been reported to me, all that you have done since the death of your husband. You have left your father, mother, and the land of your birth to follow your mother-in-law and to come to a people you do not know.
12 Hamaly ny nataonao anie Jehovah, ka homen’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, valim-pitia lehibe anie ianao, satria avy hialoka eo ambanin’ ny elany ianao.
May Yahweh reward you for your deed. May you receive full payment from Yahweh, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have found refuge.”
13 Dia hoy Izy: Aoka hahita fitia eo imasonao aho, tompokolahy; fa efa nampifaly ahy ianao, ary efa niteny mora tamin’ ny zatovovavinao, na dia tsy tahaka ny anankiray amin’ ny zatovovavinao aza aho.
Then she said, “Let me find favor in your eyes, my master, for you have comforted me, and you have spoken kindly to me, though I am not one of your female servants.”
14 Ary rehefa tonga ny fotoam-pisakafoana, dia hoy Boaza taminy: Mankanesa atỳ, ka mihinàna mofo, ary atsobohy amin’ ny vinaingitra ny sombi-mofonao. Dia nipetraka teo anilan’ ny mpijinja izy; ary nangalan-dralehilahy lango izy, dia nihinana ka voky, ary nisy sisa tsy laniny aza.
At mealtime Boaz said to Ruth, “Come here, and eat some of the bread, and dip your morsel in the wine vinegar.” She sat beside the reapers, and he offered her some roasted grain. She ate until she was satisfied and left the rest of it.
15 Ary raha nitsangana hitsimpona izy, dia nodidian’ i Boaza ny ankizilahiny hoe: Aoka izy hitsimpona na dia eny anelanelan’ ny amboara aza, ka aza maninona azy.
As she got up to gather up grain, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, “Let her gather up the grain even among the bundles, and do not tell her not to.
16 Ary asio latsadatsaka avy amin’ ny amboara, ka avelao ireny hotsimponiny, fa aza raràna izy.
Also pull out for her some ears of grain from the bundles, and leave them for her to gather up, and do not rebuke her.”
17 Ary nitsimpona tany an-tsaha mandra-paharivan’ ny andro Rota, dia nively izay efa voatsimpony, ka nisy vary hordea tokony ho iray efaha.
So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out the ears of grain that she had gathered, and the grain was about an ephah of barley.
18 Dia nentiny izany, ka nankany an-tanàna izy, ary hitan’ ny rafozani-vavy izay efa voatsimpony; ary navoakany koa ilay sisa tsy laniny tamin’ ny nisakafoany ka nomeny ny rafozany.
She lifted it up and went into the city. Then her mother-in-law saw what she had gathered. Ruth also brought out the roasted grain left from her meal and gave it to her.
19 Dia hoy ny rafozanivavy taminy: Taiza no nitsimponanao androany, ary taiza no nanaovanao? Hotahina anie izay nitsinjo anao. Dia nambarany tamin’ ny rafozani-vavy izay efa nitsimponany ka hoy izy: Boaza no anaran’ ny lehilahy, izay tompon’ ny tanimbary nitsimponako androany
Her mother-in-law said to her, “Where have you gleaned today? Where did you go to work? May the man who helped you be blessed.” Then Ruth told her mother-in-law about the man who owned the field where she had worked. She said, “The name of the man who owns the field where I worked today is Boaz.”
20 Dia hoy Naomy tamin’ ny vinantonivavy: Hotahin’ i Jehovah anie izay tsy nitsahatra hanao soa amin’ ny velona sy ny maty. Ary hoy koa Naomy taminy: Havantsika akaiky ihany ralehilahy, ka isan’ izay mahavotra antsika izy.
Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by Yahweh, who has not left off his loyalty to the living and to the dead.” Naomi said to her, “That man is near of kin to us, one of our kinsman-redeemers.”
21 Ary hoy Rota, vehivavy Moabita: Izao koa no nataony tamiko: Mitoera tsara eo anilan’ ny zatovoko ianao mandra-pahatapitry ny fijinjana.
Ruth the Moabite woman said, “Indeed, he said to me, 'You should keep close to my young men until they have finished all my harvest.'”
22 Ary hoy Naomy tamin’ i Rota vinantoni-vavy: Tsara izany, anaka, raha miara-mivoaka amin’ ny ankizivavy ianao, fandrao hisy haninona anao raha any an-tsaha hafa.
Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, “It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his young female workers, so that you do not come to harm in any other field.”
23 Ary izy tsy nety nisaraka tamin’ ny zatovovavin’ i Boaza, fa nitsimpona mandra-pahatapitry ny fijinjana ny vary hordea sy ny vary tritika; ary nitoetra tao amin’ ny rafozani-vavy Izy.
So she stayed close to Boaz's female workers in order to glean to the end of the barley harvest and the wheat harvest. She lived with her mother-in-law.
