Ruth 4

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Boaz went and took a seat at the gate; and when he saw the closer relative of whom he had spoken come along, he called to him by name, "Come and sit beside me!" And he did so.	1 فصعد بوعز الى الباب وجلس هناك واذا بالولي الذي تكلم عنه بوعز عابر. فقال مل واجلس هنا انت يا فلان الفلاني فمال وجلس.
2 Then Boaz picked out ten of the elders of the city and asked them to sit nearby. When they had done this,	2 ثم اخذ عشرة رجال من شيوخ المدينة وقال لهم اجلسوا هنا فجلسوا.
3 he said to the near relative: "Naomi, who has come back from the Moabite plateau, is putting up for sale the piece of land that belonged to our kinsman Elimelech.	3 ثم قال للولي ان نعمي التي رجعت من بلاد موآب تبيع قطعة الحقل التي لاخينا اليمالك.
4 So I thought I would inform you, bidding you before those here present, including the elders of my people, to put in your claim for it if you wish to acquire it as next of kin. But if you do not wish to claim it, tell me so, that I may be guided accordingly, for no one has a prior claim to yours, and mine is next." He answered, "I will put in my claim."	4 فقلت اني اخبرك قائلا اشتر قدام الجالسين وقدام شيوخ شعبي. فان كنت تفكّ ففكّ. وان كنت لا تفكّ فاخبرني لاعلم لانه ليس غيرك يفك وانا بعدك. فقال اني افكّ.
5 Boaz continued, "Once you acquire the field from Naomi, you must take also Ruth the Moabite, the widow of the late heir, and raise up a family for the departed on his estate."	5 فقال بوعز يوم تشتري الحقل من يد نعمي تشتري ايضا من يد راعوث الموآبية امرأة الميت لتقيم اسم الميت على ميراثه.
6 The near relative replied, "I cannot exercise my claim lest I depreciate my own estate. Put in a claim yourself in my stead, for I cannot exercise my claim."	6 فقال الولي لا اقدر ان افك لنفسي لئلا افسد ميراثي. ففكّ انت لنفسك فكاكي لاني لا اقدر ان افكّ.
7 Now it used to be the custom in Israel that, to make binding a contract of redemption or exchange, one party would take off his sandal and give it to the other. This was the form of attestation in Israel.	7 وهذه هي العادة سابقا في اسرائيل في امر الفكاك والمبادلة لاجل اثبات كل امر يخلع الرجل نعله ويعطيه لصاحبه. فهذه هي العادة في اسرائيل.
8 So the near relative, in saying to Boaz, "Acquire it for yourself," drew off his sandal.	8 فقال الولي لبوعز اشتر لنفسك. وخلع نعله
9 Boaz then said to the elders and to all the people, "You are witnesses today that I have acquired from Naomi all the holdings of Elimelech, Chilion and Mahlon.	9 فقال بوعز للشيوخ ولجميع الشعب انتم شهود اليوم اني قد اشتريت كل ما لاليمالك وكل ما لكليون ومحلون من يد نعمي.
10 I also take Ruth the Moabite, the widow of Mahlon, as my wife, in order to raise up a family for her late husband on his estate, so that the name of the departed may not perish among his kinsmen and fellow citizens. Do you witness this today?"	10 وكذا راعوث الموآبية امرأة محلون قد اشتريتها لي امرأة لاقيم اسم الميت على ميراثه ولا ينقرض اسم الميت من بين اخوته ومن باب مكانه. انتم شهود اليوم.
11 All those at the gate, including the elders, said, "We do so. May the LORD make this wife come into your house like Rachel and Leah, who between them built up the house of Israel. May you do well in Ephrathah and win fame in Bethlehem.	11 فقال جميع الشعب الذين في الباب والشيوخ نحن شهود. فليجعل الرب المرأة الداخلة الى بيتك كراحيل وكليئة اللتين بنتا بيت اسرائيل. فاصنع ببأس في افراتة وكن ذا اسم في بيت لحم.
12 With the offspring the LORD will give you from this girl, may your house become like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah."	12 وليكن بيتك كبيت فارص الذي ولدته ثامار ليهوذا من النسل الذي يعطيك الرب من هذه الفتاة
13 Boaz took Ruth. When they came together as man and wife, the LORD enabled her to conceive and she bore a son.	13 فاخذ بوعز راعوث امرأة ودخل عليها فاعطاها الرب حبلا فولدت ابنا.
14 Then the women said to Naomi, "Blessed is the LORD who has not failed to provide you today with an heir! May he become famous in Israel!	14 فقالت النساء لنعمي مبارك الرب الذي لم يعدمك وليّا اليوم لكي يدعى اسمه في اسرائيل.
15 He will be your comfort and the support of your old age, for his mother is the daughter-in-law who loves you. She is worth more to you than seven sons!"	15 ويكون لك لارجاع نفس واعالة شيبتك. لان كنتك التي احبتك قد ولدته وهي خير لك من سبعة بنين.
16 Naomi took the child, placed him on her lap, and became his nurse.	16 فأخذت نعمي الولد ووضعته في حضنها وصارت له مربّية.
17 And the neighbor women gave him his name, at the news that a grandson had been born to Naomi. They called him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David.	17 وسمّته الجارات اسما قائلات قد ولد ابن لنعمي ودعون اسمه عوبيد. هو ابو يسّى ابي داود
18 These are the descendants of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,	18 وهذه مواليد فارص. فارص ولد حصرون.
19 Hezron was the father of Ram, Ram was the father of Amminadab,	19 وحصرون ولد رام ورام ولد عميناداب.
20 Amminadab was the father of Nahshon, Nahshon was the father of Salmon,	20 وعميناداب ولد نحشون ونحشون ولد سلمون.
21 Salmon was the father of Boaz, Boaz was the father of Obed,	21 وسلمون ولد بوعز وبوعز ولد عوبيد
22 Obed was the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.	22 وعوبيد ولد يسّى ويسّى ولد داود
