Your children should love the Lord, work hard, and experience the joy of trusting God. More important than leaving your children an inheritance is leaving them a spiritual heritage. If you left your children money they didn't need, and if they were thinking correctly, wouldn't they give it to God anyway? Then why not give it to God yourself, since He entrusted it to you?

3:1 ¶ Na ka mea a Naomi, tona hungawai ki a ia, Kaua ianei ahau e rapu i te okiokinga mou, e taku tamahine, e puta mai ai te pai ki a koe?

3:2 Ehara ianei i te whanaunga no taua a Poaha nana nei aua kotiro, ou hoa na? Nana, ko a tenei po ia whakarererere ai i te papapa o te parei i te patunga witi.

3:3 Na horoia koe, ka whakawahi i a koe, ka kakahu ai i ou kakahu, ka haere ki raro, ki te patunga witi; kaua ia koe e whakaaturia ki taua tangata, a mutu noa tana kai, tana inu.

3:4 A ka takoto ia, na me titiro koe ki te wahi e takoto ai ia; a ka haere atu, ka hura i nga kakahu o ona waewae, ka takoto; ko reira ia whakaatu ai ki a koe i tau e mea ai.

3:5 Na ka mea tera ki a ia, Maku e mea nga mea katoa i korerotia mai na e koe ki ahau.

3:6 ¶ Na ko tona haerenga ki raro, ki te patunga witi, meatia ana e ia nga mea katoa i whakahaua e tona hungawai ki a ia.

3:7 Na ka kai a Poaha, ka inu, a hari ana tona ngakau, a ka haere, ka takoto ki te pito o te puranga: na ko te ata haerenga o tera, hurahia ana nga kakahu o ona waewae, na kua takoto.

3:8 A, i waenganui po ka oho te mauri o taua tangata, ka tahuri ia: na, he wahine e takoto ana i ona waewae.

3:9 Na ka mea ia, Ko wai koe? a ka mea ake tera, Ko Rutu ahau, ko tau pononga wahine: na uhia iho te pito o tou ki tau pononga; he whanaunga tupu hoki koe.

3:10 Na ka mea ia, Kia manaakitia koe e Ihowa, e taku tamahine; nui atu hoki i to te timatanga tou aroha o te whakamutunga, i a koe kihai nei i aru i nga taitama, i te mea rawakore, i te mea whai taonga ranei.

3:11 Na kaua e wehi, e taku tamahine; ka meatia e ahau ki a koe au mea katoa i ki mai ai; e mohio ana hoki te pa katoa o toku iwi he wahine koe e uaua ana ki te pai.

3:12 Na he tika ano, he whanaunga tupu ahau noa; otiia tena ano tetahi e tata rawa ana i ahau.

3:13 Takoto marie i tenei po; a i te ata ki te whakawhanaunga ia ki a koe, he tika, mana te tikanga whanaunga; ki te kahore ia e pai mana te tikanga o te whanaunga ki a koe, na maku te tikanga whanaunga ki a koe; e ora ana a Ihowa. Ata takoto, kia ta ea ra ano te ata.

3:14 ¶ Na takoto tonu ia ki ona waewae a taea noatia te ata; a ka maranga, i te mea e kore te tangata e kite i tona hoa. Na ka mea tera, Kei mohiotia i haere mai he wahine ki te patunga witi.

3:15 I mea ano ia, Tena koa te koroka i runga i a koe na, puritia mai. Na puritia ana e ia. Na ka mehuatia atu etahi parei e ia, e ono nga mehua: a whakawaha atu ana ki a ia; na haere ana ia ki te pa.

3:16 A, no tona taenga ki tona hungawai, ka mea tera, Kei te pehea koe, e taku tamahine? Na korerotia ana e ia ki a ia nga mea katoa i mea ai taua tangata ki a ia.

3:17 I mea ano ia, Ko enei mehua parei e ono i homai e ia ki ahau; i mea hoki ki ahau, Kei haere kau koe ki tou hungawai.

3:18 Na ka mea tera, Ata noho, e taku tamahine, kia mohiotia ra ano e koe te tukunga iho o tenei mea: e kore hoki e mutu ta taua tangata, kia oti ra ano tenei mea i a ia aianei.
