< Ruth 4 >

1 [Meanwhile], Boaz went up to the town gate and sat there. [That was the place where people met together to decide important matters]. When the man that Boaz had mentioned came there, the close relative of Ruth and Naomi’s dead husbands [who had a responsibility to take care of Naomi and Ruth], Boaz said to him, “My friend, come over here and sit down.” So the man went and sat down.
Ай о Боазо жыля и бэшля катар лэ форости вудара. И дикхэл: жал кодыва родо, пала кастэ вов пхэнэлас. О Боазо акхардя лэс и пхэндя: — Поджа кардэ, амал. Прибэш. Кодыва поджыля и бэшля.
2 Boaz then gathered ten of the elders of the town and asked them to sit down [there also]. After they sat down,
Андэ форо о Боазо акхардя дэшэ барэдэра манушэн и пхэндя лэнди: — Бэшэн катэ. Вонэ бэшлэ.
3 he said to the man who had the responsibility to take care of Naomi, “Naomi has returned from Moab [region]. She wants to sell the field that belonged to our relative Elimelech.
О Боазо пхэндя колэ родости: — Дума жал палай мал лэ Элимелехости, амарэ родости. Э Наоми рисайля андай Моавицко пхув и битинэл э мал.
4 I thought that I should tell you about that, and suggest that you buy it, while these elders who are sitting here are listening. If you are willing to buy the property, do that. But if you do not want to buy it, tell me, so that I will know. I am suggesting this to you because you are the one who has the first right to buy it, and I am the one who has the second/next right to buy it.” The man replied, “I will buy it!”
Мэ погиндосадэм, кай трэбуй тэ пхэнав тути пала када. Ту трэбуй тэ витинэс кадыя мал англа саворэ, ко бэшэл, и англа э барэдэра амарэн манушэн. Камэс, витин, ай на камэс, пхэн манди, кай мэ тэ ганав. О чячё витинимос ашэлпэ пала тутэ, ту англуно, ай мэ тунче пала тутэ. — Мэ витинава, — пхэндя кодыва.
5 Then Boaz told him, “When you buy the land from Naomi, you will also be taking Ruth, [the woman] who is from Moab, [to be your wife], in order that she may [give birth to a son who will] inherit the property of her dead husband [MTY].”
О Боазо пхэндя: — Сар кай ту тинэса э мал кай э Наоми, ту кадя жэ трэбуй тэ лэс пала тутэ ла Руфя моавитянка, ла пхивля, соб латерэ бэяцэ тэ авэн хулая пэ лэско хаббэ.
6 Then the close relative [of Ruth’s dead husband] said, “[If that is so], I do not [want to] buy the field, because then my own [children] would not inherit the property; [Ruth’s children would inherit it]. You buy the property!”
Тунче кодыва пхэндя: — Най, мэ на витинав кадыя мал. Мэ дарав, со кадя римосарава мэрно хаббэ. Витин фэдэр ту, мэ на витинав.
7 At that time, it was the custom in Israel, when a person bought property that belonged to another person, that the man who was selling the property would take off one of his sandals and give it to the one who was buying the property. That was the way they finalized sales in Israel.
(Андэ пхурани время кай э израильтянуря сас обычаё, кала пэрэдэнас по чячё витинимос, соб тэ састярэн о допхэнимос, о мануш излэлас пар пэстэ э сандали и отдэлас аврэсти. Кадя э израильтянуря састярнас о допхэнимос.)
8 So that close relative said to Boaz, “You buy the field yourself!” And he took off [one of] his sandals [and gave it to Boaz].
— Тин ту, — пхэндя о родо лэ Боазости и изля о сандали.
9 Then Boaz said to the elders and all the [other] people [who were there], “Today you have all seen that I have bought from Naomi all the property that belonged to [her dead husband] Elimelech and [his dead sons] Mahlon and Chilion.
О Боазо пхэндя лэ барэдэрэнди тай саворэнди, ко бэшэлас: — Адес тумэ дикхэн и шунэн, икхатар мэ тинав кай э Наоми ся, со сас кай о Элимелехо, Килионо и кай о Махлоно.
10 I am also taking Ruth, [the woman] from Moab, Mahlon’s widow, to be my wife, in order that she may give birth to a son who will inherit the property of the dead man. In that way, Elimelech’s name will continue [LIT] among the members of his family and among all the people of this town. Today you all are witnesses [of what I have done].”
Кадя жэ и ла Руфя моавитянка, ла пхивля лэ Махлоностеря, мэ лав пала мандэ, кай э бэяцэ лэ Махлоности тэ авэн хулая пэ лэско хаббэ, и кай тэ на пэрэшындёл лэско родо анда амаро форо. Адес тумэ екхжэнэ дикхэн и шунэн када!
11 All the elders and the [others] who were sitting at the [town] gate [agreed, and one of them] said, “[Yes, ] we are witnesses. We hope/desire that Yahweh will enable this woman, who will be coming into your home, to give birth to many children, as Rachel and Leah did. They are the women from whom all [us] people [MTY] of Israel are descended. We hope that you will become rich in the clan of Ephratah, and become famous [MTY] [here] in Bethlehem.
Тунче саворэ, ко сас катар э вудара тай э барэдэра пхэндэ: — Кадя амэ дикхас и шунас! Мэк о РАЙ дэла кала жувляти, сави зажал андэ теро чер, бут бэяцэн. Сар Вов дя бут бэяцэн ла Рахиляти тай ла Лияти, савэндар аракхадилэ ся э израильски мануша! Зорало ав андо Эфрато тай гангло андо Вифлеемо!
12 We hope/desire that Yahweh will enable you and this young woman to have many descendants. And we hope/desire that your family will be as important as the family of your ancestor Perez, the son of Judah and Tamar.”
Мэк черэз э терэ бэяцэн, савэн о РАЙ дэла тути кала тэрня жувлятар, тери порода авэла, сар э порода кай о Парэцо, савэс э Тамар аракхадя лэ Иудасти!
13 So Boaz took Ruth [home], and she became his wife. He (slept with/had sexual relations with) her [EUP] and Yahweh enabled her to become pregnant, and she gave birth to a son.
О Боазо ля пала пэстэ ла Руфя. Вов сутя ласа, ай о РАЙ дя лати тэ авэл пхари, и вой андя шаворэс.
14 The women [of Bethlehem] said to Naomi, “Praise Yahweh! Now he has given [LIT] you a grandson who will be the one who will have the responsibility to take care of you. We hope that he will become famous [MTY] throughout Israel.
Э жувля пхэнэнас ла Наомияти: — Бахтало о РАЙ, Саво дя тути фиримарес! Тэ ашарэлпэ вов машкара израильтянуря!
15 He will make you feel young again, and he will take care of you when you become old. Your daughter-in-law, who loves you, has given birth to a son, who will (be better to/do more for) you than [if you had] seven sons [of your own].”
Вов рисарэла тути э лош тай подритярэла тут андэ пхуранэ бэрша! Э бори тери, сави камэл тут, андя лэс! Вой важ тутэ фэдэр ефта шавэндар.
16 Then Naomi took the baby and put him on her lap, and took care of him.
Э Наоми пхиравэлас лэ бэятос пэ васт и дикхэлас пала лэстэ.
17 The women who were living near her said, “[It is as though] Naomi [now] has a son!” And they named him Obed. [Later], Obed became the father of Jesse, and [later] Jesse became the father of [King] David.
Ай э жувля, савэ жувэнас котэ, пхэнэнас: — Шаворо аракхадиляпэ кай э Наоми. Вонэ динэ лэсти о алав Овидо. Вов ашыля дад лэ Иесеёско, саво сас о дад лэ Давидоско.
18 Here is [a list of] the ancestors of [King David]: Perez’s son was Hezron. Hezron’s son was Ram. Ram’s son was Amminadab. Amminadab’s son was Nahshon. Nahshon’s son was Salmon. Salmon’s son was Boaz. Boaz’s son was Obed. Obed’s son was Jesse. Jesse’s son was [King] David.
Акэ э порода лэ Фарецости: о Фарецо ашыля дадэса лэ Хецроноско,
о Хецроно ашыля дадэса лэ Рамоско, о Рамо ашыля дадэса лэ Аминадавоско,
о Аминадаво ашыля дадэса лэ Нахшоноско, о Нахшоно ашыля дадэса лэ Салмоноско,
о Салмоно ашыля дадэса лэ Боазоско, о Боазо ашыля дадэса лэ Овидоско,
о Овидо ашыля дадэса лэ Иесеёско, о Иесеё ашыля дадэса лэ Давидоско.
