Ruth 3

1 Chiengʼ moro Naomi ma wuod odgi nowachone niya, “Nyara, donge dibed maber ka anwangʼoni odi, kama inyalo chopnie dwarogi e yo maber?

And she lodged with her mother-in-law: and Noemin her mother-in-law said to her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?

2 Donge Boaz, misebedo ka ibet gi jotichne ma nyiri, en anywolawa? Kawuono gotieno wangʼ nopiedh shairi kar dino.

And now [is] not Booz our kinsman, with whose damsels thou wast? behold, he winnows barley this night in the floor.

3 Luokri kendo wirri gi mo madungʼ tik mamit, kendo rwak lepi mabeyo mogik. Kisetimo kamano, to dhi mwalo nyaka kar dino cham, to kik iwe ongʼe ni in kanyo nyaka sa ma osetieko chiemo gi metho.

But do thou wash, and anoint thyself, and put thy raiment upon thee, and go up to the threshing-floor: do not discover thyself to the man until he has done eating and drinking.

4 Ka sechege mag nindo ochopo to ngʼe kama odhi nindoe. Bangʼ mano, ele gi yo ka tiende kendo inind kanyo. Bangʼe obiro nyisi gima onego itim.”

And it shall come to pass when he lies down, that thou shalt mark the place where he lies down, and shalt come and lift up the covering of his feet, and shalt lie down; and he shall tell thee what thou shalt do.

5 Ruth nodwoke niya, “Abiro timo gimoro amora minyisa.”

And Ruth said to her, All that thou shalt say, I will do.

6 Omiyo ne odhi kar dino cham, kendo notimo gik moko duto mane wuon odgi onyise mondo otim.

And she went down to the threshing-floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law enjoined her.

7 Kane Boaz osetieko chiemo gi metho, kendo kane chunye koro mor, nodhi kare mar nindo machiegni gi kama nochokie ngano. Ruth nodonjo kanyo mos, moelo tiende kendo onindo kanyo.

And Booz ate and drank, and his heart was glad, and he came to lie down by the side of the heap of corn; and she came secretly, and lifted up the covering of his feet.

8 Odiwuor tir, gimoro nobwogo Boaz. To ka nolokore noyudo ka dhako moro onindo bute gi yo katiende.

And it came to pass at midnight that the man was amazed, and troubled, and behold, a woman lay at his feet.

9 Nopenje niya, “In ngʼa?” Nodwoke niya, “An Ruth jatichni. Yie iyar bath nangani konchiel iumago, nikech in watna mahie machiegni koda.”

And he said, Who art thou? and she said, I am thine handmaid Ruth; spread therefore thy skirt over thine handmaid, for thou art a near relation.

10 Nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye mondo ogwedhi nyara. Tim maber makoro itimoni duongʼ moloyo mano manyocha isenyiso chon: Ok iseringo bangʼ yawuowi ma pod tindo, bed ni gin jomoko kata jochan.

And Booz said, Blessed [be] thou of the Lord God, [my] daughter, for thou hast made thy latter kindness greater than the former, in that thou followest not after young men, whether [any be] poor or rich.

11 To koro, nyara, kik ibed maluor. Abiro timoni gimoro amora mikwayo. Jo-dalawa duto ongʼeyo ni in dhako ma kite ber.

And now fear not, my daughter, whatever thou shalt say I will do to thee; for all the tribe of my people knows that thou art a virtuous woman.

12 Kata obedo ni en adier ni an watni, to nitie watni mahie moro machielo ma jakori moloya.

And now I am truly akin to thee; nevertheless there is a kinsman nearer than I.

13 Bed ka otienoni kende, to kiny gokinyi, kapo ni odwaro timoni gima owinjore otimni kaka watne mahie, to ber. To ka ok ohero mar timo kamano, to akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima, abiro timoni kamano. Nind aninda ka nyaka okinyi.”

Lodge [here] for the night, and it shall be in the morning, if he will do the part of a kinsman to thee, well—let him do it: but if he will not do the part of a kinsman to thee, I will do the kinsman's part to thee, [as] the Lord lives; lie down till the morning.

14 Omiyo Ruth nonindo gi yo ka tiende nyaka huyuhuyu piny, to nochiewo ka pod ngʼato ok nyal ngʼeyo wadgi. Boaz nowachone niya, “Kik iwe ngʼato ngʼe ni dhako moro nobiro kar dino cham ka.”

And she lay at his feet until the morning; and she rose up before a man could know his neighbour; and Booz said, Let it not be known that a woman came into the floor.

15 Bende nowacho niya, “Kel ane nanga mibakorigono ipedhnago piny kae.” Kane Ruth osetimo kamano, Boaz noolo gorogoro auchiel mag shairi morieyo e wiye. Bangʼ mano ne oa, modok dalagi.

And he said to her, Bring the apron that is upon thee: and she held it, and he measured six measures of barley, and put them upon her, and she went into the city.

16 Ka Ruth nobiro ir wuon odgi, Naomi nopenjo niya, “Weche nodhi nade, nyara?” Eka nowachone gik moko duto mane Boaz otimone,

And Ruth went in to her mother-in-law, and she said to her, [My] daughter! and [Ruth] told her all that the man had done to her.

17 kendo nomedo wacho niya, “Ne omiya gorogoro auchiel mag shairi kowacho ni, ‘Kik idog ir wuon odu gi lweti nono!’”

And she said to her, He gave me these six measures of barley, for he said to me, Go not empty to thy mother-in-law.

18 Eka Naomi nowacho niya, “Rit mondi, nyara, nyaka ingʼe gima timore. Nikech ngʼatno ok bi bedo mos kapok otiek wachno kawuono.”

And she said, Sit still, [my] daughter, until thou shalt know how the matter will fall out; for the man will not rest until the matter be accomplished this day.
