Ruth 2

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Naomi had a prominent kinsman named Boaz, of the clan of her husband Elimelech.	1 Noemi imaše rođaka po mužu, čovjeka vrlo imućna, iz porodice Elimelekove: zvao se Boaz.
2 Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, "Let me go and glean ears of grain in the field of anyone who will allow me that favor." Naomi said to her, "Go, my daughter,"	2 Tada Ruta Moapka reče Noemi: »Htjela bih ići u polje pabirčiti klasje za onim u koga nađem milost.« Ona joj odgovori: »Hajde, kćeri moja!«
3 and she went. The field she entered to glean after the harvesters happened to be the section belonging to Boaz of the clan of Elimelech.	3 I ode, dođe u polje te poče pabirčiti za žeteocima. A sreća je dovede u polje koje pripadaše Boazu, iz roda Elimelekova.
4 Boaz himself came from Bethlehem and said to the harvesters, "The LORD be with you!" and they replied, "The LORD bless you!"	4 I gle, dođe Boaz iz Betlehema. »Jahve bio s vama!« – pozdravi on žeteoce. A oni mu odgovoriše: »Jahve te blagoslovio!«
5 Boaz asked the overseer of his harvesters, "Whose girl is this?"	5 Boaz će nato momku koji je nadzirao žeteoce: »Čija je ona mlada žena?«
6 The overseer of the harvesters answered, "She is the Moabite girl who returned from the plateau of Moab with Naomi.	6 A momak koji bijaše nad žeteocima odgovori: »Ono je mlada Moapka što je došla prateći Noemi s Moapskih poljana.
7 She asked leave to gather the gleanings into sheaves after the harvesters; and ever since she came this morning she has remained here until now, with scarcely a moment's rest."	7 Pitala je: ‘Smijem li pabirčiti i kupiti klasje između snopova za žeteocima?’ I došla je, eto, i ostala od ranog jutra sve dosad; i samo je malo ušla u kuću.«
8 Boaz said to Ruth, "Listen, my daughter! Do not go to glean in anyone else's field; you are not to leave here. Stay here with my women servants.	8 Onda Boaz reče Ruti: »Čuj me, kćeri moja, ne idi pabirčiti u drugoga, nego se drži mojih njiva i mojih poslenika.
9 Watch to see which field is to be harvested, and follow them; I have commanded the young men to do you no harm. When you are thirsty, you may go and drink from the vessels the young men have filled."	9 Pazi na kojoj njivi oni žanju, pa idi za njima. A naredio sam momcima da te nitko ne dira. Kad ožedniš, idi k posudama i pij što moje sluge zahitaju.«
10 Casting herself prostrate upon the ground, she said to him, "Why should I, a foreigner, be favored with your notice?"	10 Ona tada pade ničice, pokloni se do zemlje i reče: »Čime sam stekla toliku milost u očima tvojim da mi posvećuješ pažnju kad sam tuđinka?«
11 Boaz answered her: "I have had a complete account of what you have done for your mother-in-law after your husband's death; you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and have come to a people whom you did not know previously.	11 Boaz joj odgovori: »Čuo sam što si sve učinila za svoju svekrvu poslije smrti svoga muža; kako si ostavila oca svoga, majku svoju i zavičaj svoj te došla u narod kojega do jučer ili prekjučer nisi poznavala.
12 May the LORD reward what you have done! May you receive a full reward from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come for refuge."	12 Neka ti Jahve plati sve što si učinila i neka ti udijeli pravu nagradu Jahve, Bog Izraelov, kad si došla da se pod krila njegova skloniš!«
13 She said, "May I prove worthy of your kindness, my lord: you have comforted me, your servant, with your consoling words; would indeed that I were a servant of yours!"	13 Ona preuze: »Kad bih mogla uvijek nalaziti milost u tvojim očima, gospodaru, jer si me utješio i milostivo progovorio sluškinji svojoj, ako i nisam kao jedna od tvojih sluškinja.«
14 At mealtime Boaz said to her, "Come here and have some food; dip your bread in the sauce." Then as she sat near the reapers, he handed her some roasted grain and she ate her fill and had some left over.	14 Kad bijaše vrijeme ručku, Boaz joj reče: »Hodi ovamo, jedi ovog kruha i umoči svoj zalogaj u ocat!« Ona sjede pokraj žetelaca, a on stavi pred nju prženih zrna. Jela je i nasitila se i još joj preteče.
15 She rose to glean, and Boaz instructed his servants to let her glean among the sheaves themselves without scolding her,	15 Kad je ustala da pabirči dalje, Boaz zapovjedi svojim slugama: »I među snopljem neka ona pabirči, a vi joj nemojte zanovijetati.
16 and even to let drop some handfuls and leave them for her to glean without being rebuked.	16 Nego navlaš ispuštajte klasove iz svojih rukoveti i ostavljajte joj neka kupi i nemojte je koriti!«
17 She gleaned in the field until evening, and when she beat out what she had gleaned it came to about an ephah of barley,	17 I tako je pabirčila sve do večeri, pa onda ovrše ono što je napabirčila: bijaše otprilike jedna efa ječma.
18 which she took into the city and showed to her mother-in-law. Next she brought out and gave her what she had left over from lunch.	18 Uze ona svoje i dođe u grad, a svekrva vidje koliko je napabirčila. Tada Ruta izvadi i dade joj što joj bijaše preteklo pošto se nasitila.
19 So her mother-in-law said to her, "Where did you glean today? Where did you go to work? May he who took notice of you be blessed!" Then she told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked. "The man at whose place I worked today is named Boaz," she said.	19 Svekrva je upita: »Gdje si pabirčila danas? Gdje si radila? Neka je blagoslovljen onaj koji je pogledao na te!« Onda ona pripovjedi svekrvi kod koga je radila i reče: »Čovjek u koga sam danas radila zove se Boaz.«
20 "May he be blessed by the LORD, who is ever merciful to the living and to the dead," Naomi exclaimed to her daughter-in-law; and she continued, "He is a relative of ours, one of our next of kin."	20 Tada će Noemi svojoj snasi: »Neka Jahve blagoslovi onoga koji ne uskraćuje dobrote svoje ni živima ni mrtvima!« I dometnu Noemi: »Taj je čovjek naš rod; jedan od naših skrbnika.«
21 "He even told me," added Ruth the Moabite, "that I should stay with his servants until they complete his entire harvest."	21 Ruta Moapka pripovjedi dalje: »Još mi reče: ‘Drži se mojih poslenika dokle ne požanju sve moje!’«
22 "You would do well, my dear," Naomi rejoined, "to go out with his servants; for in someone else's field you might be insulted."	22 Noemi nato reče Ruti, snasi svojoj: »Dobro je, kćeri moja, idi za njegovim poslenicima da ti ne bude neprilike na kojoj drugoj njivi.«
23 So she stayed gleaning with the servants of Boaz until the end of the barley and wheat harvests.	23 I tako se držala poslenika Boazovih i pabirčila dokle ne požeše i ječam i pšenicu. I živjela je kod svekrve svoje.
