Si Ruth sa Bukid ni Boaz
2 Isang(A) araw, sinabi ni Ruth kay Naomi, “Pupunta po ako sa bukid at mamumulot ng mga uhay na naiiwan ng mga gumagapas. Doon ako sa may likuran ng sinumang papayag.”
Sumagot si Naomi, “Ikaw ang bahala, anak.” Kaya't si Ruth ay nagpunta sa bukid at namulot ng mga uhay, kasunod ng mga gumagapas. Nagkataong ang napuntahan niya ay ang bukid ni Boaz, isang kamag-anak ni Elimelec na napakayaman at iginagalang sa kanilang bayan.
4 Di nagtagal, dumating naman si Boaz mula sa Bethlehem. “Sumainyo si Yahweh,” ang bati niya sa mga gumagapas.
“Pagpalain naman kayo ni Yahweh!” sagot nila.
5 Nang makita si Ruth, itinanong ni Boaz sa katiwala, “Sino ang babaing iyon?”
6 “Siya po ang Moabitang kasama ni Naomi nang umuwi rito mula sa Moab,” sagot ng katiwala. 7 “Nakiusap po siyang makapamulot ng nalaglag na mga uhay. Pinayagan ko naman. Kaya't maagang-maaga pa'y naririto na siya. Katitigil lamang niya para magpahinga sandali.”
8 Nilapitan ni Boaz si Ruth at kinausap, “Anak, huwag ka nang pupunta sa ibang bukid. Dito ka na lamang mamulot kasama ng aking mga manggagawang babae. 9 Tingnan mo kung saan sila gumagapas, at sumunod ka. Sinabi ko na sa mga tauhan ko na huwag kang gambalain. At kung ikaw ay nauuhaw, malaya kang uminom ng tubig mula sa aking banga.”
10 Nagpatirapa si Ruth, bilang pagbibigay-galang, at nagtanong, “Ako po ay isang dayuhan, bakit po napakabuti ninyo sa akin?”
11 Sumagot si Boaz, “Nabalitaan ko ang lahat ng ginawa mo sa iyong biyenan mula nang mamatay ang iyong asawa. Alam ko ring iniwan mo ang iyong mga magulang at sariling bayan upang manirahan sa isang lugar na wala kang kakilala. 12 Pagpalain ka nawa ni Yahweh dahil sa iyong ginawa. Gantimpalaan ka nawa ni Yahweh, ang Diyos ng Israel sapagkat sa kanya ka lumapit at nagpakupkop!” 13 Sumagot si Ruth, “Salamat po. Pinalakas ninyo ang aking loob sa inyong sinabi. Kahit ako'y isang hamak na lingkod at sa katunaya'y hindi kabilang sa inyong mga manggagawa, naging mabuti kayo sa akin.”
14 Nang dumating ang oras ng pagkain, tinawag ni Boaz si Ruth, “Halika rito. Kumuha ka ng tinapay at isawsaw mo sa sarsa.” Kaya't umupo na siyang kasama ng mga manggagawa, at binigyan siya ni Boaz ng inihaw na sebada. Kumain naman si Ruth hanggang sa mabusog. May natira pa sa pagkaing ibinigay sa kanya. 15 Nang ipagpatuloy niya ang pamumulot, pinagbilinan ni Boaz ang mga manggagawa, “Hayaan ninyo siyang mamulot kahit sa tabi ng mga binigkis na uhay. Huwag ninyo siyang babawalan. 16 Maglaglag kayo ng mga uhay mula sa binigkis para may mapulot siya.”
17 Si Ruth ay namulot hanggang gabi, at pagkatapos ay giniik niya ang kanyang napulot. Halos limang salop na sebada ang nakuha niya. 18 Umuwi si Ruth at ipinakita sa kanyang biyenan ang naipong sebada, at ibinigay pa niya sa matanda ang lumabis niyang pagkain. 19 Nagtanong si Naomi, “Saang bukid ka ba namulot ngayon? Pagpalain nawa ng Diyos ang taong nagmagandang-loob sa iyo!” At ikinuwento ni Ruth ang nangyari sa kanya sa bukid ni Boaz. 20 Kaya't(B) sinabi ni Naomi, “Pagpalain nawa siya ni Yahweh na hindi nakakalimot sa kanyang pangako sa mga buháy at sa mga patay.” Idinugtong pa niya, “Malapit nating kamag-anak ang taong iyon, isa sa mga may tungkuling mangalaga sa naiwan ng mga yumao.”
21 Nagpatuloy ng pagsasalaysay si Ruth, “Sinabi pa niyang magpatuloy akong mamulot sa kanyang bukid hanggang sa matapos ang anihan niya.”
22 Sumagot si Naomi, “Oo nga, anak. Baka mapahamak ka lamang kung sa ibang bukid ka pupunta. Mabuti ngang manatili kang kasama ng kanyang mga manggagawang babae.” 23 Ganoon nga ang nangyari. Namulot si Ruth kasama ng mga gumagapas sa bukid ni Boaz, hanggang sa maaning lahat ang trigo at ang sebada. At namuhay siya sa piling ng kanyang biyenan.

路得遇见波阿斯
2 拿俄米的丈夫以利米勒有个亲戚，名叫波阿斯，是个有名望的财主。 2 摩押女子路得对拿俄米说：“让我到田里去，跟在那些愿意恩待我的人后面，捡些麦穗回来。”拿俄米说：“去吧，我的女儿！” 3 于是，路得便去了。她恰巧来到以利米勒的亲戚波阿斯的田里，跟在收割的人后面捡麦穗。 4 当时，波阿斯刚好从伯利恒来到田间，向那些收割的工人问安说：“愿耶和华与你们同在。”他们回答说：“愿耶和华赐福与你。” 5 波阿斯问负责收割的工头说：“那是谁家的女子？” 6 工头回答说：“她是摩押女子，跟拿俄米刚从摩押回来。 7 她求我让她跟在收割的人后面，捡工人扎捆时遗落的麦穗。她一大早就来到这里，一直捡到现在，除了在凉棚里稍微坐了一会儿之外，几乎没有休息。”
8 波阿斯对路得说：“姑娘[a]，听我说，你不用到别人的田里去拾麦穗了，也不必离开这里，只管留下来跟我的女工在一起。 9 你看我的工人在哪一块田里收割，就跟着我的女工去，我已经吩咐工人不可欺负你。要是你渴了，就去水罐那里喝工人打回来的水。” 10 路得就俯伏在地叩谢他，说：“我不过是个外族人，你为什么这样恩待我、体恤我？” 11 波阿斯说：“自从你丈夫过世之后，你怎样善待婆婆，怎样离开父母和家乡来到素不相识的人当中，我都听说了。 12 愿耶和华照你所行的奖赏你！你来投靠在以色列的上帝耶和华的翅膀下，愿祂厚厚地赏赐你。” 13 路得说：“我主啊！我真是在你面前蒙恩，虽然我连你的婢女都不如，你还好言安慰我。”
14 吃饭的时候，波阿斯对路得说：“来，吃一点饼吧，可以蘸着醋吃。”路得便坐在那些收割工人旁边。波阿斯递给她一些烤好的麦穗。她吃饱了，还有剩余的。 15 当她起来又要去捡麦穗的时候，波阿斯就吩咐他的工人说：“你们要任由她捡，就算她在割下的麦子中捡麦穗，你们也不要为难她。 16 甚至要从麦捆中抽一些出来让她捡，不要责骂她。”
17 于是，路得便在田间继续捡麦穗，到了黄昏，她把捡到的麦穗打了，大约有十三公斤大麦。 18 她把捡来的麦子带回城里给婆婆拿俄米看，又把剩下来的食物给婆婆。 19 婆婆问她：“你今天在哪里拾麦穗？在哪里做工？愿那善待你的人蒙福！”她就告诉婆婆说：“今天我在一个名叫波阿斯的人那里工作。” 20 拿俄米说：“愿耶和华赐福给他，他对活着的和过世的都是那么有情有义。”拿俄米又对路得说：“这人是我们本族的人，是我们的一个近亲。” 21 摩押女子路得说：“他还对我说，‘你可以跟在我的工人后面捡麦穗，直到他们把我的庄稼都收完为止。’” 22 拿俄米对儿媳路得说：“我的女儿啊，你就跟他的女工一起到田里去，免得去别人的田里被欺负。” 23 因此，路得便常跟波阿斯的女工在一起捡麦穗，直到大麦小麦都收割完毕。路得就这样陪伴婆婆过日子。

Ruth Meets Boaz in the Grain Field
2 Now Naomi had a relative(A) on her husband’s side, a man of standing(B) from the clan of Elimelek,(C) whose name was Boaz.(D)
2 And Ruth the Moabite(E) said to Naomi, “Let me go to the fields and pick up the leftover grain(F) behind anyone in whose eyes I find favor.(G)”
Naomi said to her, “Go ahead, my daughter.” 3 So she went out, entered a field and began to glean behind the harvesters.(H) As it turned out, she was working in a field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelek.(I)
4 Just then Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and greeted the harvesters, “The Lord be with you!(J)”
“The Lord bless you!(K)” they answered.
5 Boaz asked the overseer of his harvesters, “Who does that young woman belong to?”
6 The overseer replied, “She is the Moabite(L) who came back from Moab with Naomi. 7 She said, ‘Please let me glean and gather among the sheaves(M) behind the harvesters.’ She came into the field and has remained here from morning till now, except for a short rest(N) in the shelter.”
8 So Boaz said to Ruth, “My daughter, listen to me. Don’t go and glean in another field and don’t go away from here. Stay here with the women who work for me. 9 Watch the field where the men are harvesting, and follow along after the women. I have told the men not to lay a hand on you. And whenever you are thirsty, go and get a drink from the water jars the men have filled.”
10 At this, she bowed down with her face to the ground.(O) She asked him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you notice me(P)—a foreigner?(Q)”
11 Boaz replied, “I’ve been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law(R) since the death of your husband(S)—how you left your father and mother and your homeland and came to live with a people you did not know(T) before.(U) 12 May the Lord repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the Lord,(V) the God of Israel,(W) under whose wings(X) you have come to take refuge.(Y)”
13 “May I continue to find favor in your eyes,(Z) my lord,” she said. “You have put me at ease by speaking kindly to your servant—though I do not have the standing of one of your servants.”
14 At mealtime Boaz said to her, “Come over here. Have some bread(AA) and dip it in the wine vinegar.”
When she sat down with the harvesters,(AB) he offered her some roasted grain.(AC) She ate all she wanted and had some left over.(AD) 15 As she got up to glean, Boaz gave orders to his men, “Let her gather among the sheaves(AE) and don’t reprimand her. 16 Even pull out some stalks for her from the bundles and leave them for her to pick up, and don’t rebuke(AF) her.”
17 So Ruth gleaned in the field until evening. Then she threshed(AG) the barley she had gathered, and it amounted to about an ephah.[a](AH) 18 She carried it back to town, and her mother-in-law saw how much she had gathered. Ruth also brought out and gave her what she had left over(AI) after she had eaten enough.
19 Her mother-in-law asked her, “Where did you glean today? Where did you work? Blessed be the man who took notice of you!(AJ)”
Then Ruth told her mother-in-law about the one at whose place she had been working. “The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,” she said.
20 “The Lord bless him!(AK)” Naomi said to her daughter-in-law.(AL) “He has not stopped showing his kindness(AM) to the living and the dead.” She added, “That man is our close relative;(AN) he is one of our guardian-redeemers.[b](AO)”
21 Then Ruth the Moabite(AP) said, “He even said to me, ‘Stay with my workers until they finish harvesting all my grain.’”
22 Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, “It will be good for you, my daughter, to go with the women who work for him, because in someone else’s field you might be harmed.”
23 So Ruth stayed close to the women of Boaz to glean until the barley(AQ) and wheat harvests(AR) were finished. And she lived with her mother-in-law.
