Rute 2
1 Zvino Naomi aiva nehama yokumurume wake, aibva kuimba yaErimereki, murume akasimukira, zita rake richinzi Bhoazi.
Now Naomi had a relative on her husband’s side, a prominent man of noble character from the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.
2 Zvino Rute muMoabhu akati kuna Naomi, “Regai ndiende kuminda ndinonongera zviyo zvinosara ndiri shure kwaani zvake achandiitira nyasha.” Naomi akati kwaari, “Enda hako mwanasikana wangu.”
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Please let me go into the fields and glean heads of grain after someone in whose sight I may find favor.” “Go ahead, my daughter,” Naomi replied.
3 Naizvozvo akaenda kuminda akatanga kunongera ari muminda achitevera shure kwavacheki. Zvakaitika ndezvokuti akabva angoenda kundoshanda mumunda waBhoazi, uyo aibva kuimba yaErimereki.
So Ruth departed and went out into the field and gleaned after the harvesters. And she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelech.
4 Panguva iyoyo Bhoazi akasvika achibva kuBheterehema ndokukwazisa vacheki achiti, “Jehovha ave nemi!” Ivo vakapindura vachiti, “Jehovha akuropafadzei!”
Just then Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and said to the harvesters, “The LORD be with you.” “The LORD bless you,” they replied.
5 Bhoazi akabvunza mutariri wavacheki akati, “Ko, mukadzi wechidiki uyo ndewani?”
And Boaz asked the foreman of his harvesters, “Whose young woman is this?”
6 Mutariri akapindura akati, “Mukadzi wechiMoabhu akadzoka pamwe chete naNaomi vachibva kuMoabhu.
The foreman answered, “She is the Moabitess who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.
7 Ati, ‘Ndapota nditenderei kunongera ndichiunganidza pakati pezvisote ndiri mushure mavacheki.’ Abva aenda mumunda akashanda nesimba kubva mangwanani kusvikira zvino, kunze kwenguva pfupi yaazorora ari mudumba iro.”
She has said, ‘Please let me glean and gather among the sheaves after the harvesters.’ So she came out and has continued from morning until now, except that she rested a short time in the shelter.”
8 Saka Bhoazi akati kuna Rute, “Chinzwa, mwanasikana wangu. Usaenda kunonongera uri kuno mumwe munda uye usaenda kure uchibva pano. Gara pano navashandi vangu vechisikana ava.
Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter. Do not go and glean in another field, and do not go away from this place, but stay here close to my servant girls.
9 Utarire munda uyo waunoona varume vachicheka, ugotevera mushure mavasikana. Ndarayira majaya kuti arege kukubata. Uye paunonzwira nyota, uende kunonwa mvura mumidziyo iyo yazadzwa namajaya.”
Let your eyes be on the field they are harvesting, and follow along after these girls. Indeed, I have ordered the young men not to touch you. And when you are thirsty, go and drink from the jars the young men have filled.”
10 Ipapo, akawira pasi nechiso chake akatsikitsira pasi. Akashamisika, akati, “Zvaita sei kuti ndiwane nyasha dzakadai pamberi penyu kuti mundione ini mutorwa?”
At this, she fell on her face, bowing low to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you should take notice of me, even though I am a foreigner?”
11 Bhoazi akapindura achiti, “Ndakaudzwa pamusoro pezvose zvawakaitira vamwene vako kubva pakufa kwomurume wako, uye kuti wakasiya sei baba vako namai vako uye nenyika yokwako ukauya kuzogara navanhu vawakanga usingazivi.
Boaz replied, “I have been made fully aware of all you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, how you left your father and mother and the land of your birth, and how you came to a people you did not know before.
12 Jehovha ngaakuripire pane zvawakaita. Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, ngaakupe mubayiro uzere, iye wawakauya ukavanda pasi pamapapiro ake.”
May the LORD repay your work, and may you receive a rich reward from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have taken refuge.”
13 Rute akati, “Regai ndirambe ndichiwana nyasha pamberi penyu, ishe wangu. Mandinyaradza uye mataura netsitsi kumurandakadzi wenyu kunyange ndisina kufanana navamwe varandakadzi venyu.”
“My lord,” she said, “may I continue to find favor in your eyes, for you have comforted and spoken kindly to your maidservant, though I am not like one of your servant girls.”
14 Panguva yokudya, Bhoazi akati kwaari, “Uya kuno. Tora chingwa udye uchiseva muvhiniga iyi.” Akati agara pasi navacheki, Bhoazi akamupa zviyo zvakakangwa. Akadya zvose zvaaida zvimwe zvikasara.
At mealtime Boaz said to her, “Come over here; have some bread and dip it into the vinegar sauce.” So she sat down beside the harvesters, and he offered her roasted grain, and she ate and was satisfied and had some left over.
15 Paakasimuka kuti anongere, Bhoazi akarayira majaya ake achiti, “Kunyange akaunganidza pakati pezvisote, musamudzivisa.
When Ruth got up to glean, Boaz ordered his young men, “Even if she gathers among the sheaves, do not insult her.
16 Asi, mumuvhomorere dzimwe tsama, kubva pamasumbu enyu mumusiyire agononga, uye musamutsiura.”
Rather, pull out for her some stalks from the bundles and leave them for her to gather. Do not rebuke her.”
17 Naizvozvo Rute akanongera ari mumunda kusvikira manheru. Ipapo akapura bhari raakanga aunganidza, rikasvika pachiero cheefa.
So Ruth gathered grain in the field until evening. And when she beat out what she had gleaned, it was about an ephah of barley.
18 Akaritakura akaenda naro kuguta, vamwene vake vakaona kuti akanga aunganidza zvakadini. Rute akavigirawo vamwene vake zvaakanga asiya paakanga adya akaguta.
She picked up the grain and went into the town, where her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. And she brought out what she had saved from her meal and gave it to Naomi.
19 Vamwene vake vakamubvunza vakati, “Nhasi wanga uchinongera uri kupiko? Washandirepi? Ngaaropafadzwe murume uyo akuona.” Ipapo Rute akaudza vamwene vake pamusoro pomunhu akanga ari mwene wenzvimbo yaakanga achishandira. Akati kwaari, “Zita romurume wandashanda naye nhasi ndiBhoazi.”
Then her mother-in-law asked her, “Where did you glean today, and where did you work? Blessed be the man who noticed you.” So she told her mother-in-law where she had worked. “The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,” she said.
20 Naomi akati kumuroora wake, “Jehovha ngaamuropafadze! Iye asina kurega kuratidza tsitsi kuvapenyu navakafa.” Akatizve, “Murume iyeye ihama yedu yapedyo; mumwe wavadzikinuri vedu.”
Then Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not withdrawn His kindness from the living or the dead.” Naomi continued, “The man is a close relative. He is one of our kinsman-redeemers.”
21 Ipapo Rute muMoabhu akati, “Abva ati kwandiri, ‘Gara navashandi vangu kusvikira vapedza kucheka zviyo zvangu zvose.’”
Then Ruth the Moabitess said, “He also told me, ‘Stay with my young men until they have finished gathering all my harvest.’”
22 Naomi akati kuna Rute muroora wake, “Zvichava zvakanaka kwauri mwanangu, kuti uende navasikana vake, nokuti ukaenda mumunda womumwe ungazokanganiswa.”
And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law Ruth, “My daughter, it is good for you to work with his young women, so that nothing will happen to you in another field.”
23 Saka Rute akagara pedyo navasikana vaishandira Bhoazi achinongera kusvikira kuchekwa kwegorosi nebhari kwapera. Uye iye akagara navamwene vake.
So Ruth stayed close to the servant girls of Boaz to glean grain until the barley and wheat harvests were finished. And she lived with her mother-in-law.
