Rute 2
1 E tinha Noemi um parente de seu marido, homem valente e poderoso, da geração de Elimelech: e era o seu nome Boaz.
And Naomi had a relation of her husband, a man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.
2 E Ruth a moabita disse a Noemi: Deixa-me ir ao campo, e apanharei espigas após d'aquelle em cujos olhos eu achar graça. E ella lhe disse: Vae, minha filha.
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 Foi pois, e chegou, e apanhava espigas no campo após dos segadores: e caiu-lhe em sorte uma parte do campo de Boaz, que era da geração de Elimelech.
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 E eis que Boaz veiu de Beth-lehem, e disse aos segadores: O Senhor seja comvosco. E disseram-lhe elles: O Senhor te abençoe.
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 Depois disse Boaz a seu moço, que estava posto sobre os segadores: De quem é esta moça?
Then Boaz said to his servant who was in authority over the cutters, Whose girl is this?
6 E respondeu o moço, que estava posto sobre os segadores, e disse: Esta é a moça moabita que voltou com Noemi dos campos de Moab.
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 Disse-me ella: Deixa-me colher espigas, e ajuntal-as entre as gavellas após dos segadores. Assim ella veiu, e desde pela manhã está aqui até agora, a não ser um pouco que esteve sentada em casa
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 Então disse Boaz a Ruth: Não ouves, filha minha? não vás colher a outro campo, nem tão pouco passes d'aqui: porém aqui te ajuntarás com as minhas moças.
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 Os teus olhos estarão attentos no campo que segarem, e irás após d'ellas; não dei ordem aos moços, que te não toquem? tendo tu sede, vae aos vasos, e bebe do que os moços tirarem.
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 Então ella caiu sobre o seu rosto, e se inclinou á terra: e disse-lhe: Porque achei graça em teus olhos, para que faças caso de mim, sendo eu uma estrangeira?
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 E respondeu Boaz, e disse-lhe: Bem se me contou quanto fizeste a tua sogra, depois da morte de teu marido: e deixaste a teu pae e a tua mãe, e a terra onde nasceste, e vieste para um povo que d'antes não conheceste.
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 O Senhor galardoe o teu feito: e seja cumprido o teu galardão do Senhor Deus de Israel, sob cujas azas te vieste abrigar.
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 E disse ella: Ache eu graça em teus olhos, senhor meu, pois me consolaste, e pois fallaste ao coração da tua serva, não sendo eu ainda como uma das tuas creadas.
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 E, sendo já horas de comer, disse-lhe Boaz: Achega-te aqui, e come do pão, e molha o teu bocado no vinagre. E ella se assentou ao lado dos segadores, e elle lhe deu do trigo tostado, e comeu, e se fartou, e ainda lhe sobejou.
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 E, levantando-se ella a colher, Boaz deu ordem aos seus moços, dizendo: Até entre as gavelas deixae-a colher, e não lh'o embaraceis.
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 E deixae cair alguns punhados, e deixae-os ficar, para que os colha, e não a reprehendaes.
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 E esteve ella apanhando n'aquelle campo até á tarde: e debulhou o que apanhou, e foi quasi um epha de cevada.
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 E tomou-o, e veiu á cidade; e viu sua sogra o que tinha apanhado: tambem tirou, e deu-lhe o que lhe sobejara depois de fartar-se.
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 Então disse-lhe sua sogra: Onde colheste hoje, e onde trabalhaste? bemdito seja aquelle que te reconheceu. E relatou a sua sogra com quem tinha trabalhado, e disse: O nome do homem com quem hoje trabalhei é Boaz.
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 Então Noemi disse a sua nora: Bemdito seja do Senhor, que ainda não tem deixado a sua beneficencia nem para com os vivos nem para com os mortos. Disse-lhe mais Noemi: Este homem é nosso parente chegado, e um d'entre os nossos remidores.
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 E disse Ruth, a moabita: Tambem ainda me disse: Com os moços que tenho te ajuntarás, até que acabem toda a sega que tenho.
And Ruth the Moabitess said, Truly, he said to me, Keep near my young men till all my grain is cut.
22 E disse Noemi a sua nora, Ruth: Melhor é, filha minha, que saias com as suas moças, para que n'outro campo não te encontrem.
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 Assim, ajuntou-se com as moças de Boaz, para colher até que a sega das cevadas e dos trigos se acabou; e ficou com a sua sogra.
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.
