1 И҆ воо́зъ прїи́де ко вратѡ́мъ и҆ сѣ́де та́мѡ: и҆ сѐ, ᲂу҆́жикъ мимоидѧ́ше, ѡ҆ не́мже глаго́ла воо́зъ. И҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ воо́зъ: ᲂу҆клони́всѧ сѧ́ди здѣ̀. Ѻ҆́нъ же ᲂу҆клони́сѧ и҆ сѣ́де.
1 Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there. Behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by. Boaz said to him, “Come over here, friend, and sit down!” He came over, and sat down.
2 И҆ поѧ̀ воо́зъ де́сѧть мꙋже́й ѿ старѣ́йшинъ гра́да, и҆ речѐ: сѧ́дите здѣ̀. И҆ сѣдо́ша.
2 Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, “Sit down here,” and they sat down.
3 И҆ речѐ воо́зъ ᲂу҆́жикꙋ: ча́сть села̀, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть бра́та на́шегѡ є҆лїмеле́ха, ꙗ҆́же даде́сѧ ноеммі́нѣ возврати́вшейсѧ ѿ села̀ мѡа́влѧ:
3 He said to the near kinsman, “Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s.
4 а҆́зъ же реко́хъ: ꙗ҆влю̀ тебѣ̀ сїѐ во ᲂу҆́хо твоѐ, глаго́лѧ: пристѧжѝ пред̾ сѣдѧ́щими и҆ пред̾ старѣ̑йшины люді́й мои́хъ: и҆ а҆́ще ᲂу҆́жичествꙋеши, ᲂу҆́жичествꙋй: а҆́ще же не ᲂу҆́жичествꙋеши, повѣ́ждь мѝ, да вѣ́даю: ꙗ҆́кѡ нѣ́сть ра́звѣ тебє̀ є҆́же ᲂу҆́жичествовати бли́жшїй, и҆ а҆́зъ є҆́смь по тебѣ̀. Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: а҆́зъ є҆́смь, ᲂу҆́жичествꙋю.
4 I thought I should tell you, saying, ‘Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.” He said, “I will redeem it.”
5 И҆ речѐ воо́зъ: въ де́нь во́ньже пристѧ́жеши село̀ ѿ рꙋкѝ ноеммі́ни, и҆ ѿ рꙋ́ѳы мѡаві́тѧныни жены̀ ᲂу҆ме́ршагѡ, и҆ сїю̀ досто́итъ тѝ поѧ́ти, да возста́виши и҆́мѧ ᲂу҆ме́ршагѡ въ наслѣ́дїе є҆гѡ̀.
5 Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must buy it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance.”
6 И҆ речѐ ᲂу҆́жикъ: не возмогꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́жичествовати себѣ̀, да не разсы́плю наслѣ́дїѧ моегѡ̀: ᲂу҆́жичествꙋй себѣ̀ ты̀ ᲂу҆́жичество моѐ, а҆́зъ бо не возмогꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́жичествовати.
6 The near kinsman said, “I can’t redeem it for myself, lest I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption for yourself; for I can’t redeem it.”
7 И҆ сїѐ ᲂу҆правле́нїе бы́сть пре́жде во і҆и҃ли ѡ҆ ᲂу҆́жичествованїи и҆ ѡ҆ премѣне́нїи, є҆́же ᲂу҆крѣпи́ти всѧ́кое сло́во: и҆ и҆ззꙋва́ше мꙋ́жъ сапо́гъ сво́й, и҆ даѧ́ше по́дрꙋгꙋ своемꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́жичествꙋющꙋ ᲂу҆́жичество є҆гѡ̀: и҆ сїѐ бѧ́ше свидѣ́тельство во і҆и҃ли.
7 Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man took off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbor; and this was the way of formalizing transactions in Israel.
8 И҆ речѐ ᲂу҆́жикъ воо́зꙋ: пристѧжѝ себѣ̀ ᲂу҆́жичество моѐ. И҆ и҆ззꙋ́въ сапо́гъ сво́й, дадѐ є҆мꙋ̀.
8 So the near kinsman said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” then he took off his sandal.
9 И҆ речѐ воо́зъ старѣ́йшинамъ и҆ всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ: свидѣ́телє вы̀ дне́сь, ꙗ҆́кѡ пристѧжа́хъ дне́сь всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же є҆лїмеле́хѡва, и҆ всѧ̑ є҆ли̑ка сꙋ́ть хелеѡ́нѡва и҆ маалѡ́нѡва, ѿ рꙋкѝ ноеммі́ни:
9 Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses today, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, from the hand of Naomi.
10 ксемꙋ́ же рꙋ́ѳь мѡаві́тѧныню женꙋ̀ маалѡ́ню пое́млю себѣ̀ въ женꙋ̀ возста́вити и҆́мѧ ᲂу҆ме́ршагѡ въ наслѣ́дїе є҆гѡ̀, да не поги́бнетъ и҆́мѧ ᲂу҆ме́ршагѡ ѿ бра́тїи є҆гѡ̀ и҆ ѿ пле́мене люді́й є҆гѡ̀: свидѣ́телє вы̀ дне́сь.
10 Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”
11 И҆ ѿвѣща́ша всѝ лю́дїе и҆̀же ᲂу҆ вра́тъ: свидѣ́телє є҆смы̀. И҆ старѣ̑йшины рѣ́ша: да да́стъ гдⷭ҇ь женѣ̀ твое́й, входѧ́щей въ до́мъ тво́й, ꙗ҆́коже рахи́ли и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ лі́и, ꙗ҆̀же созда́ша ѻ҆́бѣ до́мъ і҆и҃левъ, и҆ сотвори́ша си́лꙋ во є҆фра́ѳѣ, и҆ бꙋ́детъ и҆́мѧ въ виѳлее́мѣ:
11 All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May Yahweh make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which both built the house of Israel; and treat you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem.
12 и҆ бꙋ́ди до́мъ тво́й ꙗ҆́коже до́мъ фаре́совъ, є҆го́же родѝ ѳама́рь і҆ꙋ́дѣ, ѿ сѣ́мене твоегѡ̀ да́стъ тебѣ̀ гдⷭ҇ь ѿ рабы̀ сеѧ̀ ча̑да.
12 Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which Yahweh will give you by this young woman.”
13 И҆ поѧ̀ воо́зъ рꙋ́ѳь, и҆ бы́сть є҆мꙋ̀ жена̀, и҆ вни́де къ не́й: и҆ дадѐ є҆́й гдⷭ҇ь зача́ти, и҆ родѝ сы́на.
13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and Yahweh enabled her to conceive, and she bore a son.
14 И҆ реко́ша жєны̀ къ ноеммі́нѣ: блгⷭ҇ве́нъ гдⷭ҇ь, и҆́же не разсы́па ᲂу҆́жика твоегѡ̀ дне́сь, и҆ прозове́тсѧ и҆́мѧ твоѐ во і҆и҃ли,
14 The women said to Naomi, “Blessed be Yahweh, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel.
15 и҆ бꙋ́детъ тебѣ̀ во ѡ҆браща́ющаго дꙋ́шꙋ и҆ въ прекормле́нїе ста́рости твоеѧ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ сноха̀ твоѧ̀, возлюби́вшаѧ тебѐ, родѝ сы́на, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть блага̀ тебѣ̀ па́че седмѝ сынѡ́въ.
15 He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.”
16 И҆ взѧ̀ ноеммі́нь ѻ҆троча̀, и҆ положѝ є҆̀ на ло́нѣ свое́мъ, и҆ бы́сть є҆мꙋ̀ корми́лица.
16 Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him.
17 И҆ прозва́ша сосѣ́ди и҆́мѧ є҆гѡ̀, глаго́люще: роди́сѧ сы́нъ ноеммі́нѣ. И҆ нареко́ша и҆́мѧ є҆мꙋ̀ ѡ҆ви́дъ: се́й є҆́сть ѻ҆те́цъ і҆ессе́а, ѻ҆тца̀ дв҃дова.
17 The women, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, “A son is born to Naomi”. They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 И҆ сїѧ̑ рѡдства̀ фаре́сѡва: фаре́съ родѝ є҆срѡ́ма:
18 Now this is the history of the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron,
19 є҆срѡ́мъ же родѝ а҆ра́ма: а҆ра́мъ же родѝ а҆мїнада́ва:
19 and Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab,
20 а҆мїнада́въ же родѝ наассѡ́на: наассѡ́нъ же родѝ салмѡ́на:
20 and Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon,
21 салмѡ́нъ же родѝ воо́за: воо́зъ же родѝ ѡ҆ви́да:
21 and Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed,
22 ѡ҆ви́дъ же родѝ і҆ессе́а: і҆ессе́й же родѝ дв҃да.
22 and Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.
