< Rota 2 >
1 Ie amy zao, nanan-dongo amy vali’ey t’i Noomie, ondaty jòmake vaho mpañaleale, fifokoa’ i Elimeleke; Boaze ty tahina’e.
And Naomi had a relation of her husband, a man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.
2 Le hoe t’i Rote nte Moabe amy Noomie, Angao homb’ an-teteke mb’eo iraho henaneo, hitimponako, ampanonjohizañe ty hitendrehako fañisohañe am-pahaisaha’e. Aa le hoe re tama’e, Akia, anako!
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Now let me go into the field and take up the heads of grain after him in whose eyes I may have grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
3 Nimb’eo re nitimpoñe, nañorike o mpanatak’ an-tetekeo: vaho tendreke te nivotrak’ añ’ ila’ ty tonda’ i Boaze i tam-pifokoa’ i Elimelekey.
And she went, and came and took up the heads of grain in the field after the cutters; and by chance she went into that part of the field which was the property of Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
4 Pok’eo amy zao t’i Boaze boake Betlekheme añe, le hoe re amo mpanatakeo, Ho ama’ areo t’Iehovà, le hoe ty natoi’ iereo, Hitahy azo t’Iehovà.
And Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said to the grain-cutters, The Lord be with you. And they made answer, The Lord give you his blessing.
5 Aa le hoe t’i Boaze amy mpitoro’e nampisarie’e o mpanatakeoy, Ana’ ia o ampelao?
Then Boaz said to his servant who was in authority over the cutters, Whose girl is this?
6 Tinoi’ i mpisarim-panatakey ami’ty hoe, Ie i ampela nte Moabe noly atoy nindre amy Noomie boak’an-tane Moabe añey:
And the servant who was in authority over the cutters said, It is a Moabite girl who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab;
7 ty hoe ty nata’e: Mihalaly ama’o, ehe apoho iraho hitimpoñe am-pañorihañe o mpanatakeo naho hanontoñe añivo’ o fitoboroña’eo. Aa le nimb’eo animaray re nitoloñe pake henane, naho tsy t’ie nitofa kedekede an-kibohotse ao.
And she said to me, Let me come into the grain-field and take up the grain after the cutters. So she came, and has been here from morning till now, without resting even for a minute.
8 Aa le hoe t’i Boaze amy Rote, Mahafitsanom-bao, anako? Ko mitimpoñe an-tete’ o ila’eo naho ko iavota’o ty atoy vaho mirampia amo ampelakoo.
Then said Boaz to Ruth, Give ear to me, my daughter: do not go to take up the grain in another field, or go away from here, but keep here by my young women:
9 Isaho soa i teteke timpona’ iareoy naho oriho; tsy fa nafàntoko hao o ajalahio tsy hañedre azo? le ie maran-drano, mandenà mb’ amo fitovio vaho minoma amo tinari’ o ajalahioo,
Keep your eyes on the field they are cutting, and go after them; have I not given orders to the young men not to put a hand on you? And when you are in need of drink go to the vessels and take of what the young men have put there.
10 Nibabok’ an-tarehe’e re, toe nibokok’ an-tane, le nanoa’e ty hoe, Inoñe ty nahatreavako fañisohañe am-pahaoniña’o, t’ie ho haoñe’o, oniñe te renetane?
Then she went down on her face to the earth, and said to him, Why have I grace in your eyes, that you give attention to me, seeing I am from a strange people?
11 Nanoiñe aze t’i Boaze nanao ty hoe: fa naborak’ amako ze he’e nanoe’o amy rafoza’o ampelay boak’amy nihomaham-bali’oy; naho t’ie nienga rae naho rene, naho i tane nahatoly azoy, vaho nivotrak’ am’ ondaty nialik’ama’oo.
And Boaz answering said to her, I have had news of everything you have done for your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; how you went away from your father and mother and the land of your birth, and came to a people who are strange to you.
12 Iehovà abey ty hanambe ty fitoloña’o; vaho hañondrok’ azo an-kalifora’e t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele fa ambane’ o ela’eo ty nomba’o mb’etoa hitsoloke.
The Lord give you a reward for what you have done, and may a full reward be given to you by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take cover.
13 Aa le hoe re, Ehe t’ie hahatrea fañisohañe am-pahaoniña’o, ry talè, fa nampanintsiñe’o, vaho toe nitaroñe an-tro’ o mpitoro’o ampela toio, ndra te tsy ampanahafeñe ami’ty raik’ amo mpitoro’o ampelao.
Then she said, May I have grace in your eyes, my lord, for you have given me comfort, and you have said kind words to your servant, though I am not like one of your servants.
14 Ie am-pikamañe ao, hoe t’i Boaze ama’e, Mb’etoa, mitendrea mofo naho alòño amo vinaigrao ty romo-mofo’o. Nitoboke marine o mpanatakeo re, vaho nanjotsoa’ iareo ampemba tono. Nikama re le nianjañe vaho nanisa.
And at meal-time Boaz said to her, Come here, and take some of the bread, and put your bit into the wine. And she took her seat among the grain-cutters: and he gave her dry grain, and she took it, and there was more than enough for her meal.
15 Ie niongake hitimpoñe, le hoe t’i Boaze amo ajalahi’eo, Angao re hitimpoñe amo mitoboroñeo, vaho ko onjireñe.
And when she got ready to take up the grain, Boaz gave his young men orders, saying, Let her take it even from among the cut grain, and say nothing to her.
16 Tsongò ho aze ka amo nitoboroñeo, le apoho eo ho timpone’e vaho ko trevoheñe.
And let some heads of grain be pulled out of what has been corded up, and dropped for her to take, and let no sharp word be said to her.
17 Aa le nitimpoñe amy tetekey re ampara’ te hariva; vaho finofo’e i nitimpone’ey le nahaatsake ty efà i ampembay.
So she went on getting together the heads of grain till evening; and after crushing out the seed it came to about an ephah of grain.
18 Rinambe’e naho niheo mb’an-drova mb’eo, le niisa’ i rafoza’e ampelay i tinimpo’ey; nakare’e ka i nasisa’e te nieneñey vaho nazotso’e.
And she took it up and went into the town; and she let her mother-in-law see what she had got, and after taking enough for herself she gave her the rest.
19 Le hoe i rafoza’e ampelay ama’e, Aia ty nitimpona’o anindroany? Le aia i nitoloña’oy? Ho tahieñe abey i nandrendrek’ azoy. Aa le tinaro’e amy rafoza’e ampelay i nitoloña’ey vaho nanao ty hoe: i Boaze ty tahina’ indaty amy nitoloñakoiy.
And her mother-in-law said to her, Where did you take up the grain today, and where were you working? May a blessing be on him who gave such attention to you. And she gave her mother-in-law an account of where she had been working, and said, The name of the man with whom I was working today is Boaz.
20 Le hoe t’i Noomie amy vinanto’ey, ho tahie’ Iehovà, amy te tsy napo’e ty fatariha’e ke ami’ty veloñe he ami’ty mate. Aa hoe t’i Noomie ama’e: Longo marine antika indatiy, raik’ amo mahajebañe an-tikañeo.
And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, May the blessing of the Lord, who has at all times been kind to the living and to the dead, be on him. And Naomi said to her, The man is of our family, one of our near relations.
21 Le hoe t’i Rote nte Moabe, Eka, inao i asa’e amakoy: Harineo nainai’e o ajalahikoo ampara’ te henefe’ iareo i fitatahañey.
And Ruth the Moabitess said, Truly, he said to me, Keep near my young men till all my grain is cut.
22 Aa le hoe t’i Noomie amy Rote vinanto’e, mete, anako, ty indreza’o amo mpitoroñ’ ampela’eo tsy mone ho tsoboreñe t’ie an-tetek’ ila’e añe.
And Naomi said to Ruth, her daughter-in-law, It is better, my daughter, for you to go out with his servant-girls, so that no danger may come to you in another field.
23 Aa le nimanea’e orike o mpitoro-ampela’ i Boazeo, nitimpoñe am-para te niheneke ty fitatahañ’ i ampembay vaho ty fitataham-bare-bolè; ie nimoneñe amy rafoza’e ampelay.
So she kept near the servant-girls of Boaz to take up the grain till the cutting of the early grain and the cutting of the late grain were ended; and she went on living with her mother-in-law.
