ΡΟΥΘ - Ruth 2

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 και τη νωεμιν ανηρ γνωριμος τω ανδρι αυτης ο δε ανηρ δυνατος ισχυι εκ της συγγενειας αβιμελεχ και ονομα αυτω βοος	1 Now her husband Elimelech had a kinsman, a powerful man, and very rich, whose name was Booz.
2 και ειπεν ρουθ η μωαβιτις προς νωεμιν πορευθω δη εις αγρον και συναξω εν τοις σταχυσιν κατοπισθεν ου εαν ευρω χαριν εν οφθαλμοις αυτου ειπεν δε αυτη πορευου θυγατερ	2 And Ruth the Moabitess said to her mother in law: If thou wilt, I will go into the field, and glean the ears of corn that escape the hands of the reapers, wheresoever I shall find grace with a householder that will be favourable to me. And she answered her: Go, my daughter.
3 και επορευθη και συνελεξεν εν τω αγρω κατοπισθεν των θεριζοντων και περιεπεσεν περιπτωματι τη μεριδι του αγρου βοος του εκ συγγενειας αβιμελεχ	3 She went therefore and gleaned the ears of corn after the reapers. And it happened that the owner of that field was Booz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech.
4 και ιδου βοος ηλθεν εκ βαιθλεεμ και ειπεν τοις θεριζουσιν κυριος μεθ' υμων και ειπον αυτω ευλογησαι σε κυριος	4 And behold, he came out of Bethlehem, and said to the reapers: The Lord be with you. And they answered him: The Lord bless thee.
5 και ειπεν βοος τω παιδαριω αυτου τω εφεστωτι επι τους θεριζοντας τινος η νεανις αυτη	5 And Booz said to the young man that was set over the reapers: Whose maid is this?
6 και απεκριθη το παιδαριον το εφεστος επι τους θεριζοντας και ειπεν η παις η μωαβιτις εστιν η αποστραφεισα μετα νωεμιν εξ αγρου μωαβ	6 And he answered him: This is the Moabitess who came with Noemi, from the land of Moab,
7 και ειπεν συλλεξω δη και συναξω εν τοις δραγμασιν οπισθεν των θεριζοντων και ηλθεν και εστη απο πρωιθεν και εως εσπερας ου κατεπαυσεν εν τω αγρω μικρον	7 And she desired leave to glean the ears of corn that remain, following the steps of the reapers: and she hath been in the field from morning till now, and hath not gone home for one moment.
8 και ειπεν βοος προς ρουθ ουκ ηκουσας θυγατερ μη πορευθης εν αγρω συλλεξαι ετερω και συ ου πορευση εντευθεν ωδε κολληθητι μετα των κορασιων μου	8 And Booz said to Ruth: Hear me, daughter, do not go to glean in any other field, and do not depart from this place: but keep with my maids,
9 οι οφθαλμοι σου εις τον αγρον ου εαν θεριζωσιν και πορευση κατοπισθεν αυτων ιδου ενετειλαμην τοις παιδαριοις του μη αψασθαι σου και ο τι διψησεις και πορευθηση εις τα σκευη και πιεσαι οθεν αν υδρευωνται τα παιδαρια	9 And follow where they reap. For I have charged my young men, not to molest thee: and if thou art thirsty, go to the vessels, and drink of the waters whereof the servants drink.
10 και επεσεν επι προσωπον αυτης και προσεκυνησεν επι την γην και ειπεν προς αυτον τι οτι ευρον χαριν εν οφθαλμοις σου του επιγνωναι με και εγω ειμι ξενη	10 She fell on her face and worshipping upon the ground, said to him: Whence cometh this to me, that I should find grace before thy eyes, and that thou shouldst vouchsafe to take notice of me a woman of another country?
11 και απεκριθη βοος και ειπεν αυτη απαγγελια απηγγελη μοι οσα πεποιηκας μετα της πενθερας σου μετα το αποθανειν τον ανδρα σου και πως κατελιπες τον πατερα σου και την μητερα σου και την γην γενεσεως σου και επορευθης προς λαον ον ουκ ηδεις εχθες και τριτης	11 And he answered her: All hath been told me, that thou hast done to thy mother in law after the death of thy husband: and how thou hast left thy parents, and the land wherein thou wast born, and art come to a people which thou knewest not heretofore.
12 αποτεισαι κυριος την εργασιαν σου και γενοιτο ο μισθος σου πληρης παρα κυριου θεου ισραηλ προς ον ηλθες πεποιθεναι υπο τας πτερυγας αυτου	12 The Lord render unto thee for thy work, and mayest thou receive a full reward of the Lord the God of Israel, to whom thou art come, and under whose wings thou art fled.
13 η δε ειπεν ευροιμι χαριν εν οφθαλμοις σου κυριε οτι παρεκαλεσας με και οτι ελαλησας επι καρδιαν της δουλης σου και ιδου εγω εσομαι ως μια των παιδισκων σου	13 And she said: I have found grace in thy eyes, my lord, who hast comforted me and hast spoken to the heart of thy handmaid, who am not like to one of thy maids.
14 και ειπεν αυτη βοος ηδη ωρα του φαγειν προσελθε ωδε και φαγεσαι των αρτων και βαψεις τον ψωμον σου εν τω οξει και εκαθισεν ρουθ εκ πλαγιων των θεριζοντων και εβουνισεν αυτη βοος αλφιτον και εφαγεν και ενεπλησθη και κατελιπεν	14 And Booz said to her: At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. So she sat at the side of the reapers, and she heaped to herself frumenty, and ate and was filled, and took the leavings.
15 και ανεστη του συλλεγειν και ενετειλατο βοος τοις παιδαριοις αυτου λεγων και γε ανα μεσον των δραγματων συλλεγετω και μη καταισχυνητε αυτην	15 And she arose from thence, to glean the ears of corn as before. And Booz commanded his servants, saying: If she would even reap with you, hinder her not:
16 και βασταζοντες βασταξατε αυτη και γε παραβαλλοντες παραβαλειτε αυτη εκ των βεβουνισμενων και αφετε και συλλεξει και ουκ επιτιμησετε αυτη	16 And let fall some of your handfuls of purpose, and leave them, that she may gather them without shame, and let no man rebuke her when she gathereth them.
17 και συνελεξεν εν τω αγρω εως εσπερας και ερραβδισεν α συνελεξεν και εγενηθη ως οιφι κριθων	17 She gleaned therefore in the field till evening: and beating out with a rod and threshing what she had gleaned, she found about the measure of an ephi of barley, that is, three bushels:
18 και ηρεν και εισηλθεν εις την πολιν και ειδεν η πενθερα αυτης α συνελεξεν και εξενεγκασα ρουθ εδωκεν αυτη α κατελιπεν εξ ων ενεπλησθη	18 Which she took up and returned into the city, and shewed it to her mother in law: moreover she brought out, and gave her of the remains of her meat, wherewith she had been filled.
19 και ειπεν αυτη η πενθερα αυτης που συνελεξας σημερον και που εποιησας ειη ο επιγνους σε ευλογημενος και απηγγειλεν ρουθ τη πενθερα αυτης που εποιησεν και ειπεν το ονομα του ανδρος μεθ' ου εποιησα σημερον βοος	19 And her mother in law said to her: Where hast thou gleaned to day, and where hast thou wrought? blessed be he that hath had pity on thee. And she told her with whom she had wrought: and she told the man's name, that he was called Booz.
20 και ειπεν νωεμιν τη νυμφη αυτης ευλογητος εστιν τω κυριω οτι ουκ εγκατελιπεν το ελεος αυτου μετα των ζωντων και μετα των τεθνηκοτων και ειπεν αυτη νωεμιν εγγιζει ημιν ο ανηρ εκ των αγχιστευοντων ημας εστιν	20 And Noemi answered her: Blessed be he of the Lord: because the same kindness which he shewed to the living, he hath kept also to the dead. And again she said: The man is our kinsman.
21 και ειπεν ρουθ προς την πενθεραν αυτης και γε οτι ειπεν προς με μετα των παιδαριων μου προσκολληθητι εως αν τελεσωσιν ολον τον αμητον ος υπαρχει μοι	21 And Ruth said, He also charged me, that I should keep close to his reapers, till all the corn should be reaped.
22 και ειπεν νωεμιν προς ρουθ την νυμφην αυτης αγαθον θυγατερ οτι επορευθης μετα των κορασιων αυτου και ουκ απαντησονται σοι εν αγρω ετερω	22 And her mother in law said to her: It is better for thee, my daughter, to go out to reap with his maids, lest in another man's field some one may resist thee.
23 και προσεκολληθη ρουθ τοις κορασιοις βοος συλλεγειν εως ου συνετελεσεν τον θερισμον των κριθων και των πυρων και εκαθισεν μετα της πενθερας αυτης	23 So she kept close to the maids of Booz: and continued to glean with them, till all the barley and the wheat were laid up in the barns.
