< Ruth 3 >

1 And Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?
Un Naēmja, viņas vīramāte, uz viņu sacīja: mana meita, vai es tev lai nemeklēju dusas vietu, kur tev labi klājās.
2 And now is not Boaz our kinsman, with whose maidens thou were? Behold, he winnows barley tonight in the threshing-floor.
Nu tad, vai Boas, pie kura kalponēm tu esi turējusies, nav no mūsu tuviem radiem? Redzi, šo nakti viņš vētīs miežus klonā.
3 Wash thyself therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment upon thee, and get thee down to the threshing-floor. But do not make thyself known to the man until he shall have done eating and drinking.
Tad nu mazgājies un svaidies un apvelc savas drēbes un noej uz to klonu, un neparādies tam vīram, kamēr viņš beidzis ēst un dzert.
4 And it shall be, when he lies down, that thou shall notice the place where he shall lie. And thou shall go in, and uncover his feet, and lie thee down. And he will tell thee what thou shall do.
Un kad viņš apguļas, tad ņem to vietu vērā, kur viņš apgulsies, un pieej un atsedz viņa kājgalu, un apgulies, tad viņš tev sacīs, kas tev būs jādara.
5 And she said to her, All that thou say I will do.
Un viņa uz to sacīja: visu, ko tu man esi sacījusi, to es darīšu.
6 And she went down to the threshing-floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law bade her.
Tā viņa nogāja uz to klonu un darīja, tā kā viņas vīramāte viņai bija pavēlējusi.
7 And when Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. And she came softly, and uncovered his feet, and laid down.
Kad nu Boas bija ēdis un dzēris, un viņa sirds bija līksma, tad viņš gāja apgulties aiz gubas. Tad viņa nāca klusiņām un atsedza viņa kājgalu un apgūlās.
8 And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was startled, and turned himself, and, behold, a woman lay at his feet.
Un nakts vidū tas vīrs izbijās, un palocījās, un redzi, viena sieviete gulēja viņam kājgalā.
9 And he said, Who are thou? And she answered, I am Ruth thy handmaid. Spread therefore thy skirt over thy handmaid, for thou are a near kinsman.
Un viņš sacīja: kas tu esi? Un tā sacīja: es esmu Rute, tava kalpone, izplēt savus spārnus pār savu kalponi, jo tu esi tas tuvinieks.
10 And he said, Blessed be thou of Jehovah, my daughter. Thou have shown more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, inasmuch as thou did not follow young men, whether poor or rich.
Un viņš sacīja: esi svētīta no Tā Kunga, mana meita! Šī tava pēdējā mīlība ir labāka, nekā tā pirmā, tāpēc ka tu neesi dzinusies pakaļ jaunekļiem, nedz bagātam, nedz nabagam.
11 And now, my daughter, fear not. I will do to thee all that thou say, for all the city of my people know that thou are a worthy woman.
Un nu, mana meita, nebīsties! Visu, ko tu esi sacījusi, es tev darīšu; jo visos manu ļaužu vārtos ir zināms, ka tu esi godīga sieva.
12 And now it is true that I am a near kinsman. However there is a kinsman nearer than I.
Nu tas gan ir tiesa, ka esmu tuvinieks, bet tur ir vēl viens jo tuvāks nekā es.
13 Remain this night, and it shall be in the morning that if he will perform to thee the part of a kinsman, well; let him do the kinsman's part. But if he will not do the part of a kinsman to thee, then I will do the part of a kinsman to thee, as Jehovah lives. Lie down until the morning.
Paliec šo nakti, un rītu, ja viņš tevi ņems, labi, lai viņš tevi ņem; bet ja viņam negribās tevi ņemt, tad es tevi apņemšu, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo. Guli līdz rītam.
14 And she lay at his feet until the morning. And she rose up before one could discern another. For he said, Let it not be known that the woman came to the threshing-floor.
Tad tā apgūlās viņam kājgalā līdz rītam un uzcēlās, pirms viens otru varēja pazīt, jo viņš sacīja: lai netop zināms, ka sieviete ir klonā nākusi.
15 And he said, Bring the mantle that is upon thee, and hold it. And she held it, and he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her, and he went into the city.
Un viņš sacīja: dod šurp savu apsegu, kas tev ir klātu, un turi to; un viņa to turēja. Un viņš mēroja sešus mērus miežu un uzlika tos viņai, un gāja pilsētā.
16 And when she came to her mother-in-law, she said, Who are thou, my daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.
Tad viņa nāca pie savas vīramātes, un tā sacīja: kā klājās, mana meita? Un tā viņai teica visu, ko tas vīrs viņai bija darījis.
17 And she said, He gave me these six measures of barley, for he said, Go not empty to thy mother-in-law.
Viņa arī sacīja: šos sešus (mērus) miežu viņš man devis, jo viņš uz mani sacīja: tev tukšai nebūs nākt pie savas vīramātes.
18 Then she said, Sit still, my daughter, until thou know how the matter will fall, for the man will not rest until he has finished the thing this day.
Tad viņa sacīja, paliec klusu, mana meita, kamēr tu zini, kā šī lieta izdosies, jo tas vīrs nedosies mierā, bet šo lietu šodien izvedīs galā.
