रूथ 3
1 तिनकी सासू नाओमीले तिनलाई भनिन्, “मेरी छोरी, तिम्रो भलाइको निम्ति के मैले तिमीले विश्राम गर्ने ठाउँ खोज्नु पर्दैन?
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 तिमीले जसका महिला कामदारहरूसित काम गरेकी छ्यौ उही बोअज हाम्रो कुटुम्ब होइनन् र? हेर, तिनले आज राती खलामा जौ बत्ताउनेछन् ।
Now isn't Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens you were? Look, he winnows barley tonight at the threshing floor.
3 यसकारण, नुहाऊ, तेल लगाऊ र तिम्रो उत्तम लुगा लगाऊ र तल खलामा जाऊ । तर तिनले खान र पिउन नसकेसम्म ती मानिससँग देखा नपर ।
Therefore wash yourself, anoint yourself, and put on your clothes, and go down to the threshing floor, but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.
4 तर जब तिनी सुत्छन् तिनी सुत्ने ठाउँ ख्याल गर, ताकि पछि तिमी तिनीकहाँ गएर तिनको खुट्टातिरको ओढ्ने उठाएर त्यहाँ सुत्न सक्छौ । अनि तिमीले के गर्नुपर्छ त्यो तिनले बताउनेछन् ।”
It shall be, when he lies down, that you shall notice the place where he lies, and you shall go in, and uncover his feet, and lie down; then he will tell you what you shall do."
5 रूथले नाओमीलाई भनिन्, “तपाईंले भन्नुभएका सबै कुरा म गर्छु ।”
She said to her, "All that you say I will do."
6 त्यसैले तिनी तल खलामा गइन् र तिनले तिनकी सासूले तिनलाई दिएका निर्देशनहरूअनुसार गरिन् ।
She went down to the threshing floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law told her.
7 जब बोअजले खाए र पिए, तिनको हृदय खुसी भयो, तिनी अन्नको थुप्रोको छेउमा गएर सुते । त्यसपछि तिनी बिस्तारै आइन् र तिनको खुट्टाको ओढ्ने उठाएर सुतिन् ।
When Boaz had eaten and drank, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. She came quietly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.
8 मध्यराततिर ती मानिस झसङ्ग भए । तिनी फर्के र त्यहाँ एउटी महिला तिनको खुट्टा छेउमा सुतिरहेकी थिइन् ।
It happened at midnight, that the man was startled and turned over; and look, a woman lay at his feet.
9 तिनले भने, “तिमी को हौ?” तिनले जवाफ दिइन्, “म तपाईंकी दासी रूथ हुँ । तपाईंकी दासीलाई तपाईंको खास्टो लगाइदिनुहोस्, किनकि तपाईं नजिकको कुटुम्ब हुनुहुन्छ ।”
He said, "Who are you?" She answered, "I am Ruth your handmaid. Therefore spread the corner of your garment over your handmaid; for you are a redeeming kinsman."
10 बोअजले भने, “मेरी छोरी, तिमी परमप्रभुद्धारा आशिषित होऊ । तिमीले सुरुभन्दा अन्तमा अझ धैरै दया देखाएकी छ्यौ, किनभने तिमी धनी होस् वा गरीब कुनै पनि जवान मानिसको पछि लागेकी छैनौ ।
He said, "Blessed are you by the LORD, my daughter. You have shown more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, inasmuch as you didn't follow young men, whether poor or rich.
11 मेरी छोरी, नडराऊ! मैले तिम्रो निम्ति तिमीले भनेकी सबै कुरा गर्छु, किनभने तिमी लायककी छ्यौ भन्ने सारा शहरका मानिसहरूले जान्दछन् ।
Now, my daughter, do not be afraid; I will do to you all that you say; for all the city of my people does know that you are a worthy woman.
12 म कुटम्ब हुँ भन्ने कुरा सत्य हो, तर मभन्दा नजिकका एक जना कुटुम्ब हुनुहुन्छ ।
Now it is true that I am a redeeming kinsman; however there is a redeemer closer than I am.
13 आज राति यहीँ बस, बिहान यदि तिनले कुटम्बको कर्तव्य पुरा गर्छन् भने ठिकै छ, तिनले नै कुटुम्बको कर्तव्य पुरा गरून् । तर यदि तिनले तिम्रो निम्ति एउटा कुटुम्बको कर्तव्य पुरा गरेनन् भने त्यसपछि मैले यो गर्नेछु भनी म परमप्रभुको जीवनद्धारा शपथ खान्छु । बिहानसम्म सुत ।
Stay this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will perform for you the part of a redeemer, well; let him do the redeemer's part. But if he will not do the part of a redeemer for you, then I will do the part of a redeemer for you, as the LORD lives. Lie down until the morning."
14 तिनी बिहानसम्म नै तिनको खुट्टाको छेउमा सुतिरहिन् । तर तिनी एउटाले अर्को मानिसलाई चिन्न सक्ने हुनेअगि नै उठिन् । किनभने बोअजले भने, “कुनै महिला खलामा आइन् भनी कसैले थाहा नपाओस् ।”
She lay at his feet until the morning. 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 त्यसपछि बोअजले भने, “तिम्रो ओढ्ने लेऊ र त्यसमा थाप ।” जब तिनले ओड्ने थापिन्, तिनले छ पाथी जति जौ नापेर दिए र तिनलाई बोकाइदिए । त्यसपछि तिनी शहरतिर गइन् ।
He said, "Bring the cloak that is on you, and hold it." She held it; and he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her; and he went into the city.
16 जब रूथ तिनको सासूकहाँ आइन्, तिनले भनिन्, “कस्तो भयो मेरी छोरी?” अनि रूथले त्यो मानिसले भनेका सबै कुरा तिनलाई बताइन् ।
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 to her.
17 तिनले भनिन्, “तिनले मलाई यी छ पाथी जौ दिए, किनभने तिनले भने, 'तिम्री सासूकहाँ रित्तो हात नजाऊ' ।”
She said, "He gave me these six measures of barley; for he said to me, 'Do not go empty-handed to your mother-in-law.'"
18 अनि नाओमीले भनिन्, “मेरी छोरी, कुरा के हुन्छ भनी तिमीले नजानेसम्म यहीँ बस, किनभने यो कुरा आज नै नसिध्याएसम्म ती मानिसले विश्राम गर्नेछैनन् ।”
Then she said, "Wait, my daughter, until you know how the matter will fall; for the man will not rest, until he has finished the thing this day."
