1 Oo Nimco waxaa ninkeedii qaraabo u ahaan jiray nin xoog badan oo xoolo leh oo reer Eliimeleg ah, oo magiciisana waxaa la odhan jiray Bocas.
Now Naomi had a relative on her husband's side whose name was Boaz. He was a rich and influential man from the family of Elimelech.
2 Markaasaa Ruud tii reer Moo'aab waxay Nimco ku tidhi, Bal i daa aan beerta tagee, oo kii iga raalli noqda, intaan raaco, aan hadhuudh ka soo xaabxaabee. Oo iyana waxay ku tidhi, Gabadhaydiiyey, tag.
Soon after Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, “Please let me go to the fields and pick up grain that's been left behind—if I can find someone will give me permission.” “Yes, go ahead, my daughter,” Naomi replied.
3 Markaasay tagtay, oo markay timid, kuwii beerta gooynayay ayay dabadood beertii xaabxaabtay. Oo nasiibkeeduna waxaa weeye inay timaado beertii uu lahaa Bocas oo ahaa reer Eliimeleg.
So she went and picked up grain the reapers had left behind. She happened to be working in a field that belonged to Boaz, a relative of Elimelech.
4 Oo bal eeg, Bocas baa wuxuu ka yimid Beytlaxam, oo wuxuu ku yidhi kuwii beerta gooynayay, Rabbigu ha idinla jiro. Oo iyana waxay ugu jawaabeen, Rabbigu ha ku barakeeyo.
Later on Boaz arrived from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, “May the Lord be with you!” They replied, “The Lord bless you!”
5 Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu ku yidhi midiidinkiisii madaxda u ahaa kuwii beerta gooynayay, Gabadhanu waa ina ayo?
Then Boaz asked his servant who was in charge of the harvesters, “Who is this young woman related to?”
6 Markaasaa midiidinkii kuwii beerta gooynayay madaxda u ahaa wuxuu Bocas ugu jawaabay, Waa gabadhii reer Moo'aab ee Nimco kala soo noqotay waddankii reer Moo'aab.
“The young woman is a Moabite who came back with Naomi from Moab,” the servant replied.
7 Oo waxay igu tidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye aan beerta xaabxaabo, oo aan kuwa beerta gooynaya dabadood xidmooyinka wax ka dhex urursado. Taas aawadeed way timid, oo wax bay urursanaysay subaxdii ilaa haatan, in yar oo ay guriga ku maqnayd mooyaane.
“She asked me, ‘Please may I have permission to pick up grain behind the reapers.’ So she came, and she's been working here from morning until now, except for a brief rest in the shelter.”
8 Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu Ruud ku yidhi, Sow maqli maysid, gabadhaydiiyey? Ha tegin oo ha xaabxaabin beer kale, oo halkanna ha sii dhaafin, laakiinse halkan gabdhahayga u dhow iska joog.
Boaz went and spoke to Ruth. “Listen to me, my daughter,” he told her. “Don't leave to go and pick up grain in someone else's field. Stay close to my women.
9 Oo waxaad fiirisaa beerta ay gooynayaan, oo iyaga iska daba gal. Miyaanan ragga dhallinyarada ah ku amrin inaanay ku taaban? Oo markaad oontidna xagga weelasha tag oo ka soo cab biyaha ragga dhallinyarada ahu soo dhaamiyeen.
Pay attention to what part of the field the men are reaping and follow the women. I've told the men not to bother you. When you get thirsty, go and have a drink from the water jars the servants have filled.”
10 Markaasay wejiga u dhacday, oo dhulka ugu foororsatay, oo waxay isagii ku tidhi, Maxaad raalli iigu noqotay, oo aad ii garatay, anoo ah mid qalaad?
She bowed down with her face to the ground. “Why are you being so kind to me or even notice me, seeing I'm a foreigner?” she asked him.
11 Markaasaa Bocas u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Dhammaan waa lay wada tusay, kulli wixii aad u samaysay soddohdaa ilaa markii ninkaagii dhintay, iyo sidii aad uga soo kacday aabbahaa iyo hooyadaa, iyo dalkii aad ku dhalatay, oo aad u timid dad aadan hadda ka hor aqoon.
“I've heard about all you've done for your mother-in-law since your husband died,” Boaz replied. “And also how you left your father and mother, and the land of your birth, to come and live among people you didn't know.
12 Haddaba Rabbigu shuqulkaaga ha kaaga abaalgudo, oo Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil oo aad baalashiisa hoostooda magan gashay ha ku siiyo abaalgud dhan.
May the Lord fully reward you for all you've done—the Lord, the God of Israel, to whom you've come for protection.
13 Kolkaasay tidhi, Sayidow, haddaba raalli iga ahow; waayo, waad i qalbi qaboojisay, oo si raxmad leh ayaad iila hadashay anigoo ah addoontaada, in kastoo aanan addoommahaaga ka mid ahayn.
Thank you for being so good to me, sir,” she replied. “You have reassured me by speaking to me kindly. I'm not even one of your servants.”
14 Oo wakhtigii qadada ayaa Bocas wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaalay halkan, oo kibista wax ka cun, oo cuntadaada ku qoyso khalka. Oo waxay dhinac fadhiisatay kuwii beerta gooynayay, oo waxay siiyeen hadhuudh la saloolay, oo way cuntay, wayna dheregtay, oo wax bayna hambaysay.
When it was time to eat, Boaz called her over. “Come here,” he said. “Take some bread and dip it in wine vinegar.” So she sat down with the workers and Boaz passed her some roasted grain to eat. She ate until she'd had enough with some left over.
15 Oo markay u kacday inay beerta soo xaabxaabto ayaa Bocas wuxuu ku amray raggiisii dhallinyarada ahaa, Xataa xidhmooyinka ha ka dhex xaabxaabto, oo hana canaananina.
After Ruth went back to work Boaz told his men, “Let her pick up grain even among the sheaves. Don't say anything to embarrass her.
16 Oo weliba xidhmooyinkana qaar uga soo siiba oo u daaya, ha xaabxaabtee, oo hana dagaalina.
In fact, pull out some stalks from the bundles you're cutting and leave them for her to pick up. Don't tell her off.”
17 Sidaas daraaddeed waxay beertii xaabxaabaysay ilaa fiidkii, oo way tuntay wixii ay soo xaabxaabtay, oo waxay u noqotay in ku dhow eefaah shaciir ah.
Ruth worked in the field until the evening. When she beat out the grain that she had picked up it was a large amount.
18 Markaasay kor u qaadatay oo magaaladii gashay; oo soddohdeedna way aragtay wixii ay soo xaabxaabtay; oo waxay u soo bixisay oo siisay wixii ay hambaysay markay dheregtay.
She picked it up and took it back to town to show her mother-in-law how much she had collected. Ruth also gave her what she had left over from her meal.
19 Markaasaa soddohdeed waxay ku tidhi, Xaggee baad maanta wax ka soo xaabxaabtay? Oo xaggee baad ka shaqaysay? Ha barakaysnaado kii ku gartay. Oo iyana waxay soddohdeed u sheegtay kii ay la shaqaysay, oo waxay ku tidhi, Ninkii aan maanta la shaqeeyey magiciisa waxaa la yidhaahdaa Bocas.
Naomi asked her, “Where did you pick up grain today? Exactly where did you work? Bless whoever cared enough about you to pay you some attention!” So she told her mother-in-law about who she had worked with. “The man I worked with today is called Boaz.”
20 Markaasaa Nimco waxay ku tidhi gabadhii ay soddohda u ahayd, Rabbigu ha barakeeyo kan aan roonaantiisa ka dayn kuwa nool iyo kuwa dhintayba. Oo Nimco waxay ku tidhi iyadii, Ninku waa noo dhow yahay oo waa xigaalkayo, oo waa qaraabadayada noo dhow midkood.
“The Lord bless him!” Naomi exclaimed to her daughter-in-law. “He goes on showing his kindness to the living and the dead. That man is a close relative to us—a ‘family redeemer.’”
21 Markaasaa Ruud tii reer Moo'aab waxay tidhi, Oo weliba wuxuu igu yidhi, Waa inaad la joogtaa raggayga dhallinyarada ah ilaa ay dhammeeyaan beertayda ay gooynayaan.
Ruth added, “He also told me, ‘Stay close to my workers until they have finished harvesting my entire crop.’”
22 Markaasaa Nimco waxay ku tidhi gabadhii Ruud oo ay soddohda u ahayd, Gabadhaydiiyey, waa wanaagsan tahay inaad gabdhihiisa raacdid oo aan lagugula kulmin beer kaleto.
“That's good, my daughter,” Naomi told Ruth. “Stay with his women workers. Don't go to other fields where you might be molested.”
23 Sidaas daraaddeed waxay la sii joogtay gabdhihii Bocas inay xaabxaabto beerta ilaa gooyntii shaciirka iyo gooyntii sarreenkuba dhammaadeen, oo waxayna la degganayd soddohdeed.
So Ruth stayed with Boaz' women workers picking up grain until the end of the barley harvest, and then on to the end of the wheat harvest. She lived with her mother-in-law the whole time.
