< Ruth 2 >

1 Naomi had a relative of her husband’s, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.
Naomi e a vâ Elimelek e a miphun dawkvah a tha kaawm ni teh ka tawnta poung e a pawiya buet touh ao. Ahnie min teh Boaz doeh.
2 Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Let me now go to the field, and glean among the ears of grain after him in whose sight I find favor.” She said to her, “Go, my daughter.”
Moab ton, Ruth niyah kai teh laikawk koe ka cei vaiteh ka lung ni a youk e hnukkâbang vaiteh cavui a pâhma awh e ka rakhun han telah Naomi koe a kâhei. Naomi ni ka canu cet khe atipouh.
3 She went, and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
Ruth ni cang ka a naw e a hnukkhu a cei teh cavui a pâhma awh e a rakhun navah, Elimelek e a miphun Boaz e laikawk dawk pouk laipalah a pha.
4 Behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, “May the LORD be with you.” They answered him, “May the LORD bless you.”
Hatnavah, Boaz ni Bethlehem kho lahoi ka tho e nangmouh koe Cathut teh cungtalah awm naseh telah cang ka a naw hanelah atipouh navah, ahnimouh ni nama haiyah Yungyoe Cathut ni yawhawinae na poe naseh ati a pouh awh.
5 Then Boaz said to his servant who was set over the reapers, “Whose young lady is this?”
Boaz ni hai hote napuica teh api hoi maw a kâkuet telah laikawk dawk kâ katawnkung koe a pacei navah,
6 The servant who was set over the reapers answered, “It is the Moabite lady who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab.
Laikawk dawk kâ katawnkung ni Moab kho lahoi Naomi hoi rei ka tho e Moab ton doeh atipouh awh.
7 She said, ‘Please let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves.’ So she came, and has continued even from the morning until now, except that she rested a little in the house.”
Ahni ni hai kai teh cang ka a naw ni a pâhma e cavui, law um e ka rakhun han, telah a kâhei teh amom hoi atu hi lawbu a kâhat ditouh a tawk toe atipouh navah,
8 Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter. Do not go to glean in another field, and do not go from here, but stay here close to my maidens.
Boaz ni Ruth hah a kaw teh thai haw ka canu alouke laikawk dawk cet hanh, a pâhma e cavui rakhun hanh, lat hanh. Hi hoi cet laipalah ka sannunaw koe mah awm lawih.
9 Let your eyes be on the field that they reap, and go after them. Have not I commanded the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink from that which the young men have drawn.”
Law hma vah cang ka a naw hah khen nateh ahnimae hnukkâbang lawih. Thoundounnaw ni tarawk hoeh na hanlah ka dei pouh toe. Tui na kahran navah hlaam hrueknae koe cet nateh thoundoun ni a do e tui net leih atipouh navah,
10 Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found favor in your sight, that you should take knowledge of me, since I am a foreigner?”
Ruth ni talai dawk a tabo teh kai teh Jentel tami ka tho dawkvah ka bawipa nange na lung a kuep nahane bangtelamaw ka ti han ti teh a pacei.
11 Boaz answered her, “I have been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father, your mother, and the land of your birth, and have come to a people that you did not know before.
Boaz ni hai na vâ a due hnukkhu, na mani na khetyawt e thoseh, na khoram hoi na manu na pa na ceitakhai teh na panue hoeh e khoram dawk na pha tie thoseh, kai koe kamcengcalah a dei awh toe.
12 May the LORD repay your work, and a full reward be given to you from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
Na tawksak pueng dawk Cathut ni na patho lawiseh. Nang ni a rathei rahim o hanlah na hnaisin e Isarel Cathut ni tawkphu na poe lawiseh atipouh
13 Then she said, “Let me find favor in your sight, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken kindly to your servant, though I am not as one of your servants.”
Ruth nihaiyah, bawipa kai haiyah na hmalah minhmai kahawi kahmawt naseh. Kai teh nange na sannunaw hoi ka kâvan hoeh eiteh, nama ni lawkkamuem lahoi na dei pouh teh lung yo na pahawi toe telah atipouh.
14 At meal time Boaz said to her, “Come here, and eat some bread, and dip your morsel in the vinegar.” She sat beside the reapers, and they passed her parched grain. She ate, was satisfied, and left some of it.
Boaz nihai, canei nahane atueng kuep toe. Tho nateh, vaiyei cat haw. Misurtui dawk ranup hottelah atipouh e patetlah, Ruth teh cang ka a naw hoi cungtalah a tahung navah, Boaz ni vaiyei a poe teh, kaboumcalah a ca hnukkhu, bout a pek.
15 When she had risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, “Let her glean even among the sheaves, and do not reproach her.
Cavui pâhma e racawng hanlah a thaw teh a cei navah, Boaz ni avaicanaw koe, hote napui teh pâhma e cabong racawng naseh. Yeirai poe awh hanh.
16 Also pull out some for her from the bundles, and leave it. Let her glean, and do not rebuke her.”
A tangcoung e cabong hai lem pek pouh awh, hrawm van naseh. Toun awh hanh, telah lawk a thui.
17 So she gleaned in the field until evening; and she beat out that which she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.
Ruth ni hote laikawk dawk tangmin totouh cavui pâhma e a racawng teh a katin hnukkhu catun ephah, buet tabang a pha.
18 She took it up, and went into the city. Then her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought out and gave to her that which she had left after she had enough.
Hote cakang aphu teh, khothung a kâenkhai. A hmu e cakang hai a mani a patue. Kaboumlah a ca hnukkhu a pek e vaiyei hai a rasa teh bout a poe.
19 Her mother-in-law said to her, “Where have you gleaned today? Where have you worked? Blessed be he who noticed you.” She told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, “The man’s name with whom I worked today is Boaz.”
A mani ni hai sahnin nâmaw cavui na racawng. Nâmaw thaw na tawk. Nang na ka panuek e tami teh a yawhawi seh telah atipouh hnukkhu, Ruth ni sahnin ka tawknae tami e min teh Boaz doeh telah atipouh.
20 Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not abandoned his kindness to the living and to the dead.” Naomi said to her, “The man is a close relative to us, one of our near kinsmen.”
A mani ni kahring e tami, kadout e taminaw koe lungmanae pout laipalah ka sak pouh rae Cathut ni yawhawinae na poe lawiseh. Hote tami teh maimouh hoi kambawng e tami, kâhnai e miphun lah ao toe telah a langa koe atipouh
21 Ruth the Moabitess said, “Yes, he said to me, ‘You shall stay close to my young men until they have finished all my harvest.’”
Hote tami ni cang ka a e ka cum hoe roukrak ka taminaw koe awm ei telah Moab napui Ruth koe a dei pouh navah,
22 Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, “It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, and that they not meet you in any other field.”
Naomi ni, ka canu nang teh ahnie a sannunaw hoi cungtalah na awm pawiteh ahawi. Alouke laikawk dawk ahnimouh ni na hmawt payon vaih, telah Ruth koe a dei pouh.
23 So she stayed close to the maidens of Boaz, to glean to the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and she lived with her mother-in-law.
Ahni teh barli, canga e abaw totouh Boaz e a sannunaw koe ao teh, cavui pâhma e rakhun hanelah a cei teh a mani koe ao.
