Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1HE hoahanau ko Naomi, no kana kane, he kanaka waiwai nui, no ka hanauna o Elimeleka, o Boaza kona inoa.
1And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of valour, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.
2I ae la o Ruta ka Moaba ia Naomi, E hele au i ka mahinaai ea, a hoiliili mawaena o na opuu palaoa, mamuli o ka mea e aloha mai ia'u. I mai la ia, O hele, e kuu kaikamahine.
2And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi: 'Let me now go to the field, and glean among the ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find favour.' And she said unto her: 'Go, my daughter.'
3Hele aku la ia a hiki, a hoiliili iho la ma ka mahinaai, mamuli o ka poe okioki. A loaa kana puu ma kahi kihapai no Boaza, no ka hanauna ia o Elimeleka.
3And she went, and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and her hap was to light on the portion of the field belonging unto Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
4Aia hoi, hele mai la o Boaza, mai Betelehema mai, i mai la i ka poe okioki, O Iehova pu kekahi me oukou. I aku la lakou ia ia, Na Iehova no e hoopomaikai mai ia oe.
4And, behold, Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said unto the reapers: 'The LORD be with you.' And they answered him: 'The LORD bless thee.'
5Alaila, i mai la o Boaza i kana kauwa i hoonohoia maluna o ka poe okioki, Nawai keia kaikamahine?
5Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers: 'Whose damsel is this?'
6Olelo aku la ke kauwa i hoonohoia maluna o ka poe okioki, i aku la, Ke kaikamahine ia no Moaba, o ka mea i hoi pu mai me Naomi, mai ka aina o Moaba mai.
6And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said: 'It is a Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the field of Moab;
7Nonoi mai ia, Ea, e hoiliili paha au, a hoahu mahope o ka poe okioki, iwaena o na pua. Alaila, hele mai la oia, a ua hoomau, mai ke kakahiaka a i keia wa, hoomaha iki no nae ma ka hale.
7and she said: Let me glean, I pray you, and gather after the reapers among the sheaves; so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, save that she tarried a little in the house.'
8Alaila, i ae la o Boaza ia Ruta, E kuu kaikamahine, aole anei oe i lohe? Mai hele oe e hoiliili i ka mahinaai e ae, mai haalele oe i keia wahi. E hoopili oe me ko'u poe kaikamahine maanei.
8Then said Boaz unto Ruth: 'Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither pass from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens.
9E kau kou mau maka ma ke kihapai a lakou e okioki ai, a e hahai oe mamuli o lakou. Aole anei a'u i kauoha aku i na kanaka ui, i hoopa ole mai lakou ia oe? A makewai oe ea, e hele oe a inu i ka mea a na kanaka ui i ukuhi ai.
9Let thine eyes be on the field that they do reap, and go thou after them; have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch thee? and when thou art athirst, go unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have drawn.'
10Alaila, haule e iho la kona maka ilalo, a kulou oia ilalo i ka honua, i mai la ia ia, No ke aha la i loaa mai ai ia'u ka lokomaikaiia mai imua o kou mau maka, i ike mai ai oe ia'u, no ka mea, he malihini au?
10Then she fell on her face, and bowed down to the ground, and said unto him: 'Why have I found favour in thy sight, that thou shouldest take cognizance of me, seeing I am a foreigner?'
11Olelo aku la o Boaza, i aku la, Ua hoakaka pono ia mai ia'u na mea a pau au i hana aku ai i kou makuahonowaiwahine, mahope mai o ka make ana o kau kane; a ua haalele oe i kou makuakane, a me kou makuwahine, a me kahi au i hanau ai, a ua hele mai hoi i ka poe kanaka au i ike ole ai mamua.
11And Boaz answered and said unto her: 'It hath fully been told me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother-in-law since the death of thy husband; and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come unto a people that thou knewest not heretofore.
12Na Iehova no e uku mai i kau hana, a e haawiia mai no hoi ia oe ka uku nui loa e Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela. Ua hele mai hoi oe e hilinai ma ka malu o kona mau eheu.
12The LORD recompense thy work, and be thy reward complete from the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to take refuge.'
13I mai la ia, E loaa paha ia'u ka lokomaikaiia mai i na maka o ko'u haku; no ka mea, ua hoomaha mai oe ia'u, a ua olelo mai hoi i ka naau o kau kauwawahine nei, aole nae au i like me kau poe kauwawahine.
13Then she said: 'Let me find favour in thy sight, my LORD; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken to the heart of thy handmaid, though I be not as one of thy handmaidens.'
14I aku la o Boaza ia ia, I ka manawa e ai ai, e hele mai oe e ai i ka berena, e hou iho i kou hakina maloko o ka vinega, Noho iho la ia ma ka aoao o ka poe okioki; haawi ae la oia ia ia i ai i pulehuia, a ai iho la ia a maona, a koe no.
14And Boaz said unto her at meal-time: 'Come hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar.' And she sat beside the reapers; and they reached her parched corn, and she did eat and was satisfied, and left thereof.
15A ku mai la ia e hoiliili, alaila kauoha mai o Boaza i kona poe kanaka ui, i mai la, E hoiliili oia mawaena o na pua, mai hoohilahila ia ia.
15And when she was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying: 'Let her glean even among the sheaves, and put her not to shame.
16E unuhi hoi i kekahi, maloko mai o na pua, a e waiho aku nana, i hoiliili ai oia: mai papa aku ia ia.
16And also pull out some for her of purpose from the bundles, and leave it, and let her glean, and rebuke her not.'
17Hoiliili iho la oia ma ka mahinaai, a ahiahi, a kaka aku la i ka mea ana i hoiliili ai, hookahi paha epa huabale.
17So she gleaned in the field until even; and she beat out that which she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.
18A lawe iho la ia, a hele aku la i ke kulanakauhale, a ike mai la kona makuahonowaiwahine i ka mea ana i hoiliili ai; a lawe mai la ia a haawi mai ia ia i ke koena ana i malama'i mahope o kona maona ana.
18And she took it up, and went into the city; and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought forth and gave to her that which she had left after she was satisfied.
19Ninau mai la kona makuahonowaiwahine ia ia, Mahea la oe i hoiliili ai i keia la, a mahea oe i hana'i? e hoopomaikaiia ka mea i ike mai ia oe. Hoike aku la oia i kona makuahonowaiwahine i ka mea ana i hana pu ai, i aku la, O Boaza ka inoa o ka mea a'u i hana pu ai i keia la.
19And her mother-in-law said unto her: 'Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where wroughtest thou? blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee.' And she told her mother-in-law with whom she had wrought, and said: 'The man's name with whom I wrought to-day is Boaz.'
20I mai la o Naomi i kana hunonawahine, E pomaikai ana ia Iehova ka mea nana i hooki ole i kana hana lokomaikai ana i ka mea i ola, a me ka mea i make. I mai la o Naomi ia ia, He hoahanau ia e pili koke ana ia kaua, oia hoi ko kaua mea i pili koko.
20And Naomi said unto her daughter-in-law: 'Blessed be he of the LORD, who hath not left off His kindness to the living and to the dead.' And Naomi said unto her: 'The man is nigh of kin unto us, one of our near kinsmen.'
21I aku la o Ruta ka Moaba, Ua olelo mai no hoi oia ia'u, E hoopili oe mo ko'u poe kanaka, a hoopau wale lakou i ko'u hoiliili ana.
21And Ruth the Moabitess said: 'Yea, he said unto me: Thou shalt keep fast by my young men, until they have ended all my harvest.'
22I mai o Naomi ia Ruta, i kana hunonawahine, E kuu kaikamahine, he mea maikai ke hele pu oe me kona mau kaikamahine, i loaa ole oe ia lakou ma ka mahinaai e ae.
22And Naomi said unto Ruth her daughter-in-law: 'It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, and that thou be not met in any other field.'
23Nolaila, pili paa loa oia me na kaikamahine o Boaza, a pau wale ka hoiliili ana i ka huabale a me ka hoiliili ana i ka huapalaoa; a noho pu no me kona makuahonowaiwahine.
23So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and she dwelt with her mother-in-law.
