Rut 2
1 Y tenía Noemí un pariente de su marido, varón poderoso y de hecho, de la familia de Elimelec, el cual se llamaba Booz.
And Noemin had [a friend] an acquaintance of her husband, and the man [was] a mighty man of the kindred of Elimelech, and his name [was] Booz.
2 Y Rut la Moabita dijo a Noemí: Ruégote que me dejes ir al campo, y cogeré espigas en pos de aquel en cuyos ojos hallare gracia. Y ella le respondió: Hija mía, vé.
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Noemin, Let me go now to the field, and I will glean amongst the ears behind the man with whoever I shall find favour: and she said to her, Go, daughter.
3 Y yendo, llegó, y cogió en el campo en pos de los segadores, y aconteció por acaso, que la suerte del campo era de Booz, el cual era de la parentela de Elimelec.
And she went; and came and gleaned in the field behind the reapers; and she happened by chance to come on a portion of the land of Booz, of the kindred of Elimelech.
4 Y, he aquí que Booz vino de Belén, y dijo a los segadores: Jehová sea con vosotros. Y ellos respondieron: Jehová te bendiga.
And, behold, Booz came from Bethleem, and said to the reapers, The Lord [be] with you: and they said to him, The Lord bless you.
5 Y Booz dijo a su criado, el que estaba puesto sobre los segadores: ¿Cúya es esta moza?
And Booz said to his servant who was set over the reapers, Whose [is] this damsel?
6 Y el criado, que estaba puesto sobre los segadores, respondió, y dijo: Es la moza de Moab, que volvió con Noemí de los campos de Moab:
And his servant who was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel who returned with Noemin out of the land of Moab.
7 Y dijo: Ruégote que me dejes coger y juntar espigas tras los segadores entre las gavillas: y así entró, y está aquí desde por la mañana hasta ahora: sino un poco que ha estado en casa.
And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather amongst the sheaves after the reapers: and she came and stood from morning till evening, and rested not [even] a little in the field.
8 Entonces Booz dijo a Rut: Oye, hija mía, no vayas a coger a otro campo, ni pases de aquí: y aquí estarás con mis mozas.
And Booz said to Ruth, Hast you not heard, [my] daughter? go not to glean in another field; and depart not you hence, join yourself here with my damsels.
9 Mira bien al campo que segaren, y síguelas: porque yo he mandado a los mozos que no te toquen. Y si tuvieres sed, vé a los vasos, y bebe del agua que sacaren los mozos.
[Let] your eyes [be] on the field where [my men] shall reap, and you shall go after them: behold, I have charged the young men not to touch you: and when you shall thirst, then you shall go to the vessels, and drink of that which the young men shall have drawn.
10 Ella entonces inclinando su rostro encorvóse a tierra, y díjole: ¿Por qué he hallado gracia en tus ojos, que tú me conozcas, siendo yo extranjera?
And she fell upon her face, and did reverence to the ground, and said to him, How is it that I have found grace in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, whereas I am a stranger?
11 Y respondiendo Booz, díjole: De cierto me ha sido declarado todo lo que has hecho con tu suegra después de la muerte de tu marido, que dejando a tu padre y a tu madre, y la tierra de tu natural, has venido a pueblo que no conociste antes.
And Booz answered and said to her, It has fully been told me how you have dealt with your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; and how you did leave your father and your mother, and the land of your birth, and came to a people whom you knew not before.
12 Jehová galardone tu obra, y tu salario sea lleno por Jehová Dios de Israel, que has venido para cubrirte debajo de sus alas.
The Lord recompense your work; may a full reward be given you of the Lord God of Israel, to whom you have come to trust under his wings.
13 Y ella dijo: Señor mío, halle yo gracia delante de tus ojos, porque me has consolado, y porque has hablado al corazón de tu sierva, no siendo yo ni aun como una de tus criadas.
And she said, Let me find grace in your sight, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken kindly to your handmaid, and behold, I shall be as one of your servants.
14 Y Booz le dijo: A la hora de comer, allégate aquí, y come del pan, y moja tu bocado en el vinagre. Y ella se asentó junto a los segadores, y él le dio del potaje, y comió hasta que se hartó y le sobró:
And Booz said to her, Now [it is] time to eat; come here, and you shall eat of the bread, and you shall dip your morsel in the vinegar: and Ruth sat by the side of the reapers: and Booz handed her meal, and she ate, and was satisfied, and left.
15 Y levantóse para coger. Y Booz mandó a sus criados, diciendo: Coja también entre las gavillas, y no la avergoncéis.
And she rose up to glean; and Booz charged his young men, saying, Let her even glean amongst the sheaves, and reproach her not.
16 Antes echaréis a sabiendas de los manojos, y dejarla heis que coja, y no la reprendáis.
And do you by all means carry it for her, and you shall surely let fall for her some of that which is heaped up; and let her eat, and glean, and rebuke her not.
17 Y cogió en el campo hasta la tarde, y desgranó lo que había cogido, y fue como un efa de cebada.
So she gleaned in the field till evening, and beat out that she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barely.
18 Y tomólo y vínose a la ciudad: y su suegra vio lo que había cogido. Y ella sacó también lo que le había sobrado después de harta, y dióselo.
And she took [it] up, and went into the city: and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned, and Ruth brought forth and gave to her the food which she had left from what she had been satisfied with.
19 Y díjole su suegra: ¿Dónde has cogido hoy? ¿Y dónde has trabajado? Bendito sea el que te ha conocido. Y ella declaró a su suegra lo que le había acontecido con aquel varón, y dijo: el nombre del varón con quien hoy he trabajado, es Booz.
And her mother-in-law said to her, Where have you gleaned today, and where have you wrought? blessed be he that took notice of you. And Ruth told her mother-in-law where she [had] wrought, and said, The name of the man with whom I wrought today [is] Booz.
20 Y dijo Noemí a su nuera: Sea él bendito de Jehová, que aun no ha dejado su misericordia ni para con los vivos, ni para con los muertos. Y tornóle a decir Noemí: Nuestro pariente es aquel varón, y de nuestros redentores es.
And Noemin said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed is he of the Lord, because he has not failed in his mercy with the living and with the dead: and Noemin said to her, The man is near akin to us, he is one of our relations.
21 Y Rut Moabita dijo: Allende de esto me dijo: júntate con mis criados, hasta que hayan acabado toda mi segada.
And Ruth said to her mother-in-law, Yes, he said also to me, Keep close to my damsels, until the men shall have finished all my reaping.
22 Y Noemí respondió a Rut su nuera: Mejor es, hija mía, que salgas con sus criadas, que no que te encuentren en otro campo.
And Noemin said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, [It is] well, daughter, that you went out with his damsels; thus they shall not meet you in another field.
23 Y así ella se juntó con las mozas de Booz cogiendo, hasta que la siega de las cebadas y la de los trigos fue acabada; mas con su suegra habitó.
And Ruth joined herself to the damsels of Booz to glean until they had finished the barley harvest and the wheat harvest.
