Ruta 2
1 HE hoahanau ko Naomi, no kana kane, he kanaka waiwai nui, no ka hanauna o Elimeleka, o Boaza kona inoa.
Now Naomi had a relative of her husband, a worthy man of the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.
2 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.
Ruth, the Moabite woman, said to Naomi, “Now let me go and glean what remains among the ears of grain in the fields. I will follow anyone in whose eyes I will find favor.” So Naomi said to her, “Go, my daughter.”
3 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.
Ruth went and gleaned what remained in the fields after they had harvested it. She happened to come to the portion of the fields belonging to Boaz, who was of the clan of Elimelek.
4 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.
Behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said to the reapers, “May Yahweh be with you.” They answered him, “May Yahweh bless you.”
5 Alaila, i mai la o Boaza i kana kauwa i hoonohoia maluna o ka poe okioki, Nawai keia kaikamahine?
Then Boaz said to his servant who was supervising the reapers, “What man does this young woman belong to?”
6 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.
The servant supervising the reapers answered and said, “It is the young Moabite woman who came back with Naomi from the land of Moab.
7 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.
She said to me, 'Please let me glean what remains in the field after the workers harvest the crop.' So she came here and has continued from the morning until now, except that she rested a little in the house.”
8 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.
Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Are you listening to me, my daughter? Do not go and glean in another field; do not leave my field. Instead, stay here and work with my young female workers.
9 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.
Keep your eyes only on the field where the men are reaping and follow behind the other women. Have I not instructed the men not to touch you? Whenever you are thirsty, you may go to the waterpots and drink the water that the men have drawn.”
10 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?
Then she bowed down before Boaz, touching her face to the ground. She said to him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you should be concerned about me, a foreigner?”
11 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.
Boaz answered and said to her, “It has been reported to me, all that you have done since the death of your husband. You have left your father, mother, and the land of your birth to follow your mother-in-law and to come to a people you do not know.
12 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.
May Yahweh reward you for your deed. May you receive full payment from Yahweh, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have found refuge.”
13 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.
Then she said, “Let me find favor in your eyes, my master, for you have comforted me, and you have spoken kindly to me, though I am not one of your female servants.”
14 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.
At mealtime Boaz said to Ruth, “Come here, and eat some of the bread, and dip your morsel in the wine vinegar.” She sat beside the reapers, and he offered her some roasted grain. She ate until she was satisfied and left the rest of it.
15 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.
As she got up to gather up grain, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, “Let her gather up the grain even among the bundles, and do not tell her not to.
16 E unuhi hoi i kekahi, maloko mai o na pua, a e waiho aku nana, i hoiliili ai oia: mai papa aku ia ia.
Also pull out for her some ears of grain from the bundles, and leave them for her to gather up, and do not rebuke her.”
17 Hoiliili iho la oia ma ka mahinaai, a ahiahi, a kaka aku la i ka mea ana i hoiliili ai, hookahi paha epa huabale.
So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out the ears of grain that she had gathered, and the grain was about an ephah of barley.
18 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.
She lifted it up and went into the city. Then her mother-in-law saw what she had gathered. Ruth also brought out the roasted grain left from her meal and gave it to her.
19 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.
Her mother-in-law said to her, “Where have you gleaned today? Where did you go to work? May the man who helped you be blessed.” Then Ruth told her mother-in-law about the man who owned the field where she had worked. She said, “The name of the man who owns the field where I worked today is Boaz.”
20 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.
Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by Yahweh, who has not left off his loyalty to the living and to the dead.” Naomi said to her, “That man is near of kin to us, one of our kinsman-redeemers.”
21 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.
Ruth the Moabite woman said, “Indeed, he said to me, 'You should keep close to my young men until they have finished all my harvest.'”
22 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.
Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, “It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his young female workers, so that you do not come to harm in any other field.”
23 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.
So she stayed close to Boaz's female workers in order to glean to the end of the barley harvest and the wheat harvest. She lived with her mother-in-law.
