Rota 3
1 Le hoe t’i Noomie rafoza’e ampela ama’e: O anako, tsy hipaiako fitsolohañe hao hañasoañe azo?
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 Aa tsy longon-tikañe hao t’i Boaze nindreza’o amo mpitoroñ-ampela’eoy? Hamofoke vare-hordea an-tane famofohañe eo re te haleñe.
Now isn’t Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens you were? Behold, he will be winnowing barley tonight on the threshing floor.
3 Aa le miandroa irehe, naho mihosora, naho aombeo ty saro’o soa, vaho mizotsoa mb’ an-tane-pamofohañe mb’eo, fe ko ampandrendrehe’o aze, ampara’ t’ie anjañe mahakama naho rano.
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 Ie amy zao, naho màndre re, isaho i andrea’ey, le iziliho; afaho ty am-pandia’e eo, le mandrea eo, vaho ho saontsie’e ama’o ty hanoe’o.
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 Le hoe re tama’e: Hanoeko iaby i linaño’o amakoy,
She said to her, “All that you say, I will do.”
6 aa le nizotso mb’ am-pamofohañe mb’eo re nanao i nitoroa’ i rafoza’e ampelaiy.
She went down to the threshing floor, and did everything that her mother-in-law told her.
7 Ie fa nikama naho ninoñe t’i Boaze, vaho nifale ty tro’e, le niavotse handre añ’ila’ ty fitoboroñam-bare ey; nipiapia mb’eo re nañafake ty am-pandia’e vaho nandre eo.
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 Ie niantets’ aleñe, nitsekake indatiy le nañorirañe vaho hehe te ampela ty nandre an-tombo’e eo.
At midnight, the man was startled and turned himself; and behold, a woman lay at his feet.
9 Aa hoe re, Ia v’iheo? Le hoe re, I Rote mpitoro’o ampelay; ehe, alafiho amo mpitoro-ampela’oo ty saro’o amy t’ie longo mahafijebañe.
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 Le hoe re, Ho tahie’ Iehovà irehe, anako; lombolombo te amy fatariha’o am-baloha’ey ty fatariha’o am-para’e, amy te tsy norihe’o o ajalahio ke t’ie mpañarivo he te rarake.
He said, “You are blessed by Yahweh, 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 Ie amy zao, anako, ko hembañe, fa hene hanoeko ama’o i vinola’oy; fa fohi’ i fivori’ ondaty an-dalambey iabiy te ampela vañon-drehe.
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 Aa le ndra te to t’ie longo mpijebañe, mbe eo ty longo-mpijebañe marine te amako.
Now it is true that I am a near kinsman. However, there is a kinsman nearer than I.
13 Eo hey irehe ami’ty haleñe toy le ie maraiñe, naho mete hijebañe azo re, angao hijebañe, fa naho tsy mete hijebañ’ azo, le kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, izaho ty hijebañe; mandrea ampara’ te maraindray.
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 Yahweh lives. Lie down until the morning.”
14 Aa le nandre am-pandia’e eo re ampara’ te niporea’ ty maraindray; vaho nañaleñaleñe aolo’ ty hahafifankaoniña’ ondaty, ie fa niaontsy ty hoe: Ao tsy hapota’ ondaty te niheo am-pamofohañe atoy ty ampela.
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 Le hoe re, Tano o sarom-pikolopofa’oo, naho atantezo; le vinela’e naho narane’e ama’e ty vare-hordea enem-pañaranañe, le nampilolohaze’e vaho niavotse mb’ an-drova mb’eo.
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 Aa hoe ty asa’ i rafoza’e ampelay tama’e t’ie pok’eo, Akore henaneo, anako? le natalili’e ama’e i nanoa’ indatiy azey,
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 vaho hoe re: Natolo’e ahy o vare-hordea fañaranañe eneñe toañe ami’ty hoe, Ko mimpoly mañomaño mb’ aman-drafoza’o ampela ao.
She said, “He gave me these six measures of barley; for he said, ‘Don’t go empty to your mother-in-law.’”
18 Le hoe re, Eo hey anako, ampara’ te fohi’o ty figadoña’e; fa tsy hitofa indatiy ampara’ te henefe’e anito i rahay.
Then she said, “Wait, my daughter, until you know what will happen; for the man will not rest until he has settled this today.”
