Књига о Рути 2
1 А беше један човек, род мужу Нојеминином, човек богат од породице Елимелехове, коме име беше Воз.
And Noemin had [a friend] an acquaintance of her husband, and the man [was] a mighty man of the kindred of Elimelech, and his name [was] Booz.
2 И Рута Моавка рече Нојемини: Да идем у поље да пабирчим класје за оним пред ким нађем милост. А она јој рече: Иди, кћери моја.
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Noemin, Let me go now to the field, and I will glean among the ears behind the man with whoever I shall find favor: and she said to her, Go, daughter.
3 И она отиде, и дошавши стаде пабирчити по њиви за жетеоцима: и догоди се, те дође на њиву која припадаше Возу, који беше од породице Елимелехове.
And she went; and came and gleaned in the field behind the reapers; and she happened by chance to come on a portion of the land of Booz, of the kindred of Elimelech.
4 И гле, дође Воз из Витлејема, а рече жетеоцима: Господ да је с вама! И они му рекоше: Да те благослови Господ!
And, behold, Booz came from Bethleem, and said to the reapers, The Lord [be] with you: and they said to him, The Lord bless you.
5 Тада рече Воз слузи свом који беше над жетеоцима: Чија је оно младица?
And Booz said to his servant who was set over the reapers, Whose [is] this damsel?
6 А слуга који беше над жетеоцима одговори му: Моавка је младица која се вратила с Нојемином из земље моавске.
And his servant who was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel who returned with Noemin out of the land of Moab.
7 И рече: Да пабирчим, да купим класје између снопова за жетеоцима. И дошавши бави се од јутра до сада; само је мало била код куће.
And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather among the sheaves after the reapers: and she came and stood from morning till evening, and rested not [even] a little in the field.
8 Тада Воз рече Рути: Чујеш, кћери моја; немој ићи на другу њиву да пабирчиш, нити одлази одавде, него се држи мојих девојака.
And Booz said to Ruth, Hast you not heard, [my] daughter? go not to glean in another field; and depart not you hence, join yourself here with my damsels.
9 Пази на којој њиви они жању, па иди за њима; јер сам заповедио момцима својим да те нико не дира; а кад ожедниш, иди к судовима и пиј шта моје слуге захватају.
[Let] your eyes [be] on the field where [my men] shall reap, and you shall go after them: behold, I have charged the young men not to touch you: and when you shall thirst, then you shall go to the vessels, and drink of that which the young men shall have drawn.
10 Тада она паде ничице и поклони се до земље, и рече му: Како нађох милост пред тобом, да ме погледаш кад сам туђинка?
And she fell upon her face, and did reverence to the ground, and said to him, How is it that I have found grace in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, whereas I am a stranger?
11 А Воз одговори и рече јој: Чуо сам ја све што си чинила свекрви својој по смрти мужа свог, и како си оставила оца свог и матер своју и постојбину своју, па си дошла к народу ког ниси знала пре.
And Booz answered and said to her, It has fully been told me how you have dealt with your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; and how you did leave your father and your mother, and the land of your birth, and came to a people whom you knew not before.
12 Господ да ти плати за дело твоје, и да ти плата буде потпуна од Господа Бога Израиљевог, кад си дошла да се под крилима Његовим склониш.
The Lord recompense your work; may a full reward be given you of the Lord God of Israel, to whom you have come to trust under his wings.
13 А она рече: Нађох милост пред тобом, господару, јер си ме утешио и милостиво проговорио слушкињи својој, ако и нисам као једна од твојих слушкиња.
And she said, Let me find grace in your sight, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken kindly to your handmaid, and behold, I shall be as one of your servants.
14 А Воз јој рече: Кад буде време јести, дођи овамо и једи хлеба и умочи залогај свој у оцат. И она седе покрај жетелаца, и он јој пружи пржених зрна, и она једе и насити се, и претече јој.
And Booz said to her, Now [it is] time to eat; come here, and you shall eat of the bread, and you shall dip your morsel in the vinegar: and Ruth sat by the side of the reapers: and Booz handed her meal, and she ate, and was satisfied, and left.
15 Потом уста да пабирчи. А Воз заповеди момцима својим говорећи: Нека пабирчи и међу сноповима, немојте да је застидите.
And she rose up to glean; and Booz charged his young men, saying, Let her even glean among the sheaves, and reproach her not.
16 Него још навлаш испуштајте руковети и остављајте јој нека купи, и не корите је.
And do you by all means carry it for her, and you shall surely let fall for her some of that which is heaped up; and let her eat, and glean, and rebuke her not.
17 И она пабирчи на њиви до вечера, и оврше шта напабирчи, и дође око ефе јечма.
So she gleaned in the field till evening, and beat out that she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barely.
18 И узевши отиде у град, и виде свекрва њена шта је напабирчила; а она извади и даде јој и оно што је претекло пошто се наситила.
And she took [it] up, and went into the city: and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned, and Ruth brought forth and gave to her the food which she had left from what she had been satisfied with.
19 И рече јој свекрва: Где си пабирчила данас? И где си радила? Да је благословен који те је погледао! А она каза свекрви својој код кога је радила говорећи: Име је човеку код кога сам данас радила Воз.
And her mother-in-law said to her, Where have you gleaned today, and where have you wrought? blessed be he that took notice of you. And Ruth told her mother-in-law where she [had] wrought, and said, The name of the man with whom I wrought today [is] Booz.
20 А Нојемина рече снаси својој: Господ да га благослови, кад није укратио милости своје к живима и к мртвима. И рече јој Нојемина: Тај је човек нама род, и један од осветника наших.
And Noemin said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed is he of the Lord, because he has not failed in his mercy with the living and with the dead: and Noemin said to her, The man is near akin to us, he is one of our relations.
21 А Рута Моавка рече: Још ми је рекао: Држи се моје чељади докле не пожању све моје.
And Ruth said to her mother-in-law, Yes, he said also to me, Keep close to my damsels, until the men shall have finished all my reaping.
22 А Нојемина рече Рути снаси својој: Добро је, кћери моја, да идеш с његовим девојкама, да те не би дирали на другој њиви.
And Noemin said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, [It is] well, daughter, that you went out with his damsels; thus they shall not meet you in another field.
23 И тако се држаше девојака Возових пабирчећи докле се не сврши жетва јечмена и жетва пшенична; и живљаше код свекрве своје.
And Ruth joined herself to the damsels of Booz to glean until they had finished the barley harvest and the wheat harvest.
