Lute 2
1 Pea naʻe ʻia Naomi ha kāinga ʻo hono husepāniti, ko e tangata koloaʻia lahi ʻaupito, ʻi he fale ʻo ʻElimeleki, pea ko hono hingoa ko Poasi.
HE hoahanau ko Naomi, no kana kane, he kanaka waiwai nui, no ka hanauna o Elimeleka, o Boaza kona inoa.
2 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Lute ko e fefine Moape kia Naomi, “Ke ke tuku au ke u ʻalu ni ki he ngoue, pea tufi ʻae ngaahi ʻuluʻi uite ʻo muimui ʻiate ia, ʻaia te u maʻu ai ʻae fiemālie ʻi hono ʻao.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻĀ ʻeku tama, ke ke ʻalu.”
I ae la o Ruta ka Moaba ia Naomi, E hele au i ka mahinaai ea, a hoiliili mawaena o na opuu palaoa, mamuli o ka mea e aloha mai ia'u. I mai la ia, O hele, e kuu kaikamahine.
3 Pea naʻe ʻalu ia, pea hoko ʻo tufi ʻi he ngoue ʻo muimui ʻi he kau tuʻusi: pea tā ne mālie ʻia ʻene hoko ki he potu ʻoe ngoue naʻe ʻia Poasi, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he kāinga ʻo ʻElimeleki.
Hele aku la ia a hiki, a hoiliili iho la ma ka mahinaai, mamuli o ka poe okioki. A loaa kana puu ma kahi kihapai no Boaza, no ka hanauna ia o Elimeleka.
4 Pea, vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻa Poasi mei Petelihema, ʻo ne pehē ki he kau tuʻusi, “Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.” Pea naʻa nau tali ia ʻo pehē, “Ke tāpuaki koe ʻe Sihova.”
Aia hoi, hele mai la o Boaza, mai Betelehema mai, i mai la i ka poe okioki, O Iehova pu kekahi me oukou. I aku la lakou ia ia, Na Iehova no e hoopomaikai mai ia oe.
5 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Poasi ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki naʻe fakanofo ki he kau tuʻusi, “Ko e fefine ʻo hai eni?”
Alaila, i mai la o Boaza i kana kauwa i hoonohoia maluna o ka poe okioki, Nawai keia kaikamahine?
6 Pea leaange ʻe he tamaioʻeiki naʻe fakanofo ki he kau tuʻusi ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e fefine Moape ia naʻe haʻu mo Naomi mei he fonua ko Moape:”
Olelo aku la ke kauwa i hoonohoia maluna o ka poe okioki, i aku la, Ke kaikamahine ia no Moaba, o ka mea i hoi pu mai me Naomi, mai ka aina o Moaba mai.
7 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, tuku au ke u tufi ʻo tānaki muimui ʻi he kau tuʻusi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ū: ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ia, pea kuo ne fai maʻuaipē ia, talu mei he pongipongi ki he feituʻulaʻā ni kuo ne afe siʻi pe ia ki he fale.”
Nonoi mai ia, Ea, e hoiliili paha au, a hoahu mahope o ka poe okioki, iwaena o na pua. Alaila, hele mai la oia, a ua hoomau, mai ke kakahiaka a i keia wa, hoomaha iki no nae ma ka hale.
8 Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe Poasi kia Lute, “ʻE hoku ʻofefine, ʻoku ʻikai te ke fanongo? ʻOua naʻa ke ʻalu ki ha ngoue kehe ke tufi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻalu mei heni, ka ke nofomaʻu pe ʻo ofi ki hoku kau fefine:
Alaila, i ae la o Boaza ia Ruta, E kuu kaikamahine, aole anei oe i lohe? Mai hele oe e hoiliili i ka mahinaai e ae, mai haalele oe i keia wahi. E hoopili oe me ko'u poe kaikamahine maanei.
9 Ke ke sio pe ki he ngoue ʻoku nau tuʻusi, pea ke muimui ʻiate kinautolu: ʻikai kuo ʻosi ʻeku fekau ki he kau talavou ke ʻoua naʻa nau ala kiate koe? Pea ʻoka ke ka fieinu, ʻalu ki he ngaahi ʻaiʻanga inu ʻo inu, pea inu ʻaia kuo ʻutu ʻe he kau talavou.”
E kau kou mau maka ma ke kihapai a lakou e okioki ai, a e hahai oe mamuli o lakou. Aole anei a'u i kauoha aku i na kanaka ui, i hoopa ole mai lakou ia oe? A makewai oe ea, e hele oe a inu i ka mea a na kanaka ui i ukuhi ai.
10 Pea naʻe tōmapeʻe ia ki hono mata, pea punou ia ki he kelekele, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo u ʻilo ai ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, koeʻuhi ke ke fie tokanga ai kiate au, he ko e muli au?”
Alaila, haule e iho la kona maka ilalo, a kulou oia ilalo i ka honua, i mai la ia ia, No ke aha la i loaa mai ai ia'u ka lokomaikaiia mai imua o kou mau maka, i ike mai ai oe ia'u, no ka mea, he malihini au?
11 Pea naʻe tali ʻe Poasi ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo fakahā ʻo lahi kiate au, ʻaia kotoa pē kuo ke fai ki hoʻo faʻē ʻi he fono, talu ʻae pekia ʻa ho husepāniti: pea mo hoʻo liʻaki hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē, pea mo e fonua naʻa ke tupu ai, pea kuo ke haʻu ki ha kakai naʻe ʻikai te ke tomuʻa ʻilo.
Olelo aku la o Boaza, i aku la, Ua hoakaka pono ia mai ia'u na mea a pau au i hana aku ai i kou makuahonowaiwahine, mahope mai o ka make ana o kau kane; a ua haalele oe i kou makuakane, a me kou makuwahine, a me kahi au i hanau ai, a ua hele mai hoi i ka poe kanaka au i ike ole ai mamua.
12 Ke totongi ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo ngāue, pea ke foaki kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae totongi lahi, ʻaia ko e kapakau ʻoʻona kuo ke haʻu ke falala ki ai.”
Na Iehova no e uku mai i kau hana, a e haawiia mai no hoi ia oe ka uku nui loa e Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela. Ua hele mai hoi oe e hilinai ma ka malu o kona mau eheu.
13 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Tuku ke u ʻilo ʻae ʻofa ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoku ʻeiki; he kuo ke fakafiemālieʻi au, pea kuo tau hoʻo lea ki he loto ʻo hoʻo kaunanga, neongo ʻoku ʻikai te u hangē ha taha ʻi hoʻo kaunanga.”
I mai la ia, E loaa paha ia'u ka lokomaikaiia mai i na maka o ko'u haku; no ka mea, ua hoomaha mai oe ia'u, a ua olelo mai hoi i ka naau o kau kauwawahine nei, aole nae au i like me kau poe kauwawahine.
14 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Poasi kiate ia, ʻI he feituʻulaʻā kai ke ke haʻu ki heni, “Pea kai ʻi he mā, pea peke hoʻo konga mā ʻi he vaimahi.” Pea naʻe nofo ofi ia ki he kau tuʻusi: pea naʻa ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae uite tunu, pea kai ʻe ia, pea mākona, pea naʻe toe.
I aku la o Boaza ia ia, I ka manawa e ai ai, e hele mai oe e ai i ka berena, e hou iho i kou hakina maloko o ka vinega, Noho iho la ia ma ka aoao o ka poe okioki; haawi ae la oia ia ia i ai i pulehuia, a ai iho la ia a maona, a koe no.
15 Pea ʻi heʻene tuʻu hake ke tufi, naʻe fekau ʻe Poasi ki heʻene kau talavou, ʻo pehē, “Tuku ia ke tufi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ū, pea ʻoua naʻa fakamā ia:
A ku mai la ia e hoiliili, alaila kauoha mai o Boaza i kona poe kanaka ui, i mai la, E hoiliili oia mawaena o na pua, mai hoohilahila ia ia.
16 pea tuku ke ngangana ʻae ngaahi faluku koeʻuhi ke ne maʻu ia, pea tuku ai pe ia, koeʻuhi ke ne tufi ia, pea ʻoua naʻa valoki ia.”
E unuhi hoi i kekahi, maloko mai o na pua, a e waiho aku nana, i hoiliili ai oia: mai papa aku ia ia.
17 Ko ia ne tufi ai ia ʻi he ngoue ko ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi pea naʻe tuki ʻe ia ʻaia kuo ne tufi: pea ko e efa nai ʻe taha ʻoe paʻale.
Hoiliili iho la oia ma ka mahinaai, a ahiahi, a kaka aku la i ka mea ana i hoiliili ai, hookahi paha epa huabale.
18 Pea naʻa ne toʻo hake ia, ʻo ʻalu ki he kolo: pea naʻe mamata ʻene faʻē ʻi he fono ki he meʻa naʻa ne tufi: pea ne ʻomi ia ʻo ʻatu ia kiate ia, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatoe, hili ʻene kai ʻo mākona.
A lawe iho la ia, a hele aku la i ke kulanakauhale, a ike mai la kona makuahonowaiwahine i ka mea ana i hoiliili ai; a lawe mai la ia a haawi mai ia ia i ke koena ana i malama'i mahope o kona maona ana.
19 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono kiate ia, “Naʻa ke tufi ki fē he ʻaho ni? Pea naʻa ke ngāue ki fē koe?” Ke monūʻia pe ia ʻaia naʻa ne tokangaʻi koe. Pea naʻa ne fakahā ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono ʻaia naʻa ne ngāue mo ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e tangata naʻaku ngāue ʻi ai he ʻaho ni ko Poasi hono hingoa.”
Ninau mai la kona makuahonowaiwahine ia ia, Mahea la oe i hoiliili ai i keia la, a mahea oe i hana'i? e hoopomaikaiia ka mea i ike mai ia oe. Hoike aku la oia i kona makuahonowaiwahine i ka mea ana i hana pu ai, i aku la, O Boaza ka inoa o ka mea a'u i hana pu ai i keia la.
20 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi ki heʻene tama ʻi he fono, “Ke monūʻia pe ia ʻia Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai tuku ʻene fai angaʻofa ki he moʻui, pea mo e mate.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi kiate ia, “Ko e tangata kāinga ofi ia kiate kitaua, ko e tokotaha ʻo hota kāinga ʻoku ofi lahi.”
I mai la o Naomi i kana hunonawahine, E pomaikai ana ia Iehova ka mea nana i hooki ole i kana hana lokomaikai ana i ka mea i ola, a me ka mea i make. I mai la o Naomi ia ia, He hoahanau ia e pili koke ana ia kaua, oia hoi ko kaua mea i pili koko.
21 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Lute ko e fefine Moape, naʻa ne pehē foki kiate au, “Ke ke fai maʻu pe ke ofi ki heʻeku kau talavou, ke ʻoua ke ʻosi ʻeku tuʻusi ʻeku taʻu kotoa.”
I aku la o Ruta ka Moaba, Ua olelo mai no hoi oia ia'u, E hoopili oe mo ko'u poe kanaka, a hoopau wale lakou i ko'u hoiliili ana.
22 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi kia Lute ko ʻene tama ʻi he fono, “ʻA ʻeku tama, ʻOku lelei ia, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻalu kituʻa mo ʻene kau kaunanga, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo koe ʻi ha ngoue kehe ʻe taha.”
I mai o Naomi ia Ruta, i kana hunonawahine, E kuu kaikamahine, he mea maikai ke hele pu oe me kona mau kaikamahine, i loaa ole oe ia lakou ma ka mahinaai e ae.
23 Ko ia naʻe ʻalu maʻu pe ia mo e kau kaunanga ʻa Poasi, ke fai ʻene tufi ke ʻoua ke hili ʻae fetuku ʻae taʻu paʻale mo e taʻu uite: pea naʻe nofo ia mo ʻene faʻē ʻi he fono.
Nolaila, pili paa loa oia me na kaikamahine o Boaza, a pau wale ka hoiliili ana i ka huabale a me ka hoiliili ana i ka huapalaoa; a noho pu no me kona makuahonowaiwahine.
