Ludi 4
1 Boua: se e sia: sa: imusa: gilisibi sogebi amoga asili amola logo gadenene amogai esalu. Amogai esaloba amola Ilimelege ea gadenene fi dunu (bu bidi lasu fi dunu ilia da sia: su - da: i sia: da ‘kinsman-redeemer) amo mafiadalebe ba: i. Amola Boua: se ea e wele sia: i, “Na na: iyado! Di fila misa. Na da sia: fonobahadi sia: mu gala.” Amalalu, e da misini fi.
Then Boaz went up to the gate and sat down. Just then the near kinsman of whom Boaz had spoken came along. Boaz said, “Hello, So-and-so (calling him by name), come here and sit down.” So he stopped and sat down.
2 Amanoba, Boua: se e bu bidi lasu dunu amo e da musa: sia: i ema amane sia: i, “Di gui fila misa.” Amanoba, e da misini bulagi.
Boaz also took ten of the town elders and said, “Sit down here.” So they sat down.
3 Amalalu, Boua: se da moilai ouligisu dunu nabuane lale, Ilimelege ea bu bidi lasu fi dunu ema amane sia: i, “Na: ioumi da waha Moua: be soge yolesili, misi dagoi. E da ania sosogo fi dunu Ilimelege amo ea soge bidi lamu hanai galebe.
Then he said to the near relative, “Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is offering for sale the piece of land which belonged to our relative Elimelech,
4 Amaiba: le, na dima sia: be goea, be di hanai galea, goe soge di lama. Fada: i dunu nabuane agoane ilia dia sia: nabima: ne sia: ma. Be higa: i galea amo higa: i fawane sia: ma. Bai di da hanai galea, di da lamu defele gala. Be dia higasea, na da lamu defele gala.” Ilimelege ea bu bidi lasu fi dunu e da amane sia: i, “Na da lamu!”
and I thought that I would lay the matter before you, suggesting that you buy it in the presence of these men who sit here and of the elders of my people. If you will buy it and so keep it in the possession of the family, do so; but if not; then tell me, so that I may know; for no one but you has the right to buy it, and I am next to you.” “I will buy it,” he said.
5 Boua: se e amane sia: i;, “Defeadafa! Be dia Na: ioumi ea soge lasea, di da Ludi (Moua: be uda didalo) amola bidiga lasa. Amasea, amo soge da bogoi ea sosogo fi amo ganodini dialumu.
Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the field from Naomi, you must also marry Ruth the Moabite, the widow of the dead, in order to preserve the name of the dead in connection with his inheritance.”
6 Amanoba, bu bidi lasu fi dunu da amane sia: i, “Amai galea, na amola soge agoe bidiga lamu, be amo da agoane, na mano ilia soge hame galumu. Amaiba: le dia lama. Be Na da bu hame lamu.”
“I cannot buy it for myself without spoiling my own inheritance,” the near relative said. “You take my right of buying it as a relative, because I cannot do so.”
7 Amo esoha ilia da hou agoane hamosu. Isala: ili ilia sia: sa: imusa: o bu afadenemusa: ilia amola da hou agoane hamosu. Dunu afae da ea emo salasu gisa: le, dunu eno igili iasu. Amo hou da Isala: ili fi dunu ilia hou. Ilia da bidi lasu hou ilegema: ne agoane hamosu.
Now this used to be the custom in Israel: to make valid anything relating to a matter of redemption or exchange, a man drew off his sandal and gave it to the other man; and this was the way contracts were attested in Israel.
8 Amabeba: le, amola Ilimilege ea bu bidi lasu fi dunu da Boua: se ema amane sia: i, “Di bidiga lama!” E da ea emo salasu gisa: le amola Boua: sema i.
So when the near relative said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” Boaz drew off the man’s sandal.
9 Amalalu, Boua: se e dunu fada: i ilima amola oda esalebe dunu ilima amane adoi, “Dilia huluane ba: ma! Amola waha da na Na: ioumi ea soge amo Ilimelege amola ea mano Gilione amola Malone ilia soge, amo na bidiga lai dagoi.
Then Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses at this time that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s from Naomi.
10 Amola na da sia: fonobahadi sia: mu gala. Na agoane dawa: Ludi e da na uda esalumu da defea. Ludi amo uda da Moua: be dunu fi amola Malone ea lai galu, be Malone e bogobeba: le yolesi. Na da Ludi lamu hanai galebe, amola Malone ea sosogo fi da ea soge gaguiwane dialumu. Amola egaga fi da ea fidafa amola ea moilaidafa amo ganodini fifi lamu. Amola amo hou hahamoi amo dili huluane ba: i ama.
Moreover I have secured Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, to be my wife, in order to perpetuate the name of the dead in connection with his inheritance, so that his name will not disappear from among his relatives and from the household where he lived. You are witnesses this day.”
11 Dunu huluane ilia amane sia: i, “Defea! Amo ilegele hou ninia da ba: i dagoi.” Amola fada: i dunu huluane da amane sia: i, “Goe uda waha dia diasu ganodini misi, amo da Hina Gode amo Hi fawane da La: isele amola Lia elea esoa: fi Isala: ili fi ganodini hamoi defele ema hamomu. Ela da Ya: igobema mano bagohame lai. Ludi da ela defele hamomu da defea. Amola difawane da liligi bagade gagui agoane hamoma. Efala: de fi amo ganodini amola di da Bedeleheme moilai fi ganodini fada: i dunu agoane esaloma.
Then all the people who were at the gate and the elders said, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your house like Rachel and Leah, who together built the house of Israel. May you do well in Ephrata, and become famous in Bethlehem.
12 Amola dia sosogo fi da bagadewane heda: mu da defea. Di da amo a: fini didalo lasea, Hina Gode da alima mano bagohame imunu da defea. Amasea, dia sosogo fi da Yuda amola Da: ima elea mano Bilese amo ea sosogo fi hamoi amo defele ba: mu.
From the children whom the Lord will give you by this young woman may your household become like the household of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah.”
13 Amanoba Boua: se ea Ludi lale, ea diasuga oule asi. Be Hina Gode da ema hahawane dogolegele amola asigili hamobeba: le, e abula agui ba: i amola dunu mano lalelegei.
So Boaz married Ruth, and she became his wife; and the Lord gave to her a son.
14 Uda ilia da misini, Na: ioumima amane sia: i, “Hahawane Hina Godema nodoma! E da waha dia aowa lalelegei amo da di ouligima: ne. Amola amo mano da Isala: ili fi amo ganodini gasa bagade esaluma: mu.
Then the women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the Lord who has not left you at this time without a near relative, and may his name be famous in Israel.
15 Disoa: ea amola da dima asigisa amola ea dima fidisu hou da dunu mano fesuale gala ilia fidisu hou baligi dagoi. Amola e da wali dima aowa i dagoi. Amo da dia da: i hamobe amo ganodini e da di noga: le ouligimu.”
This child will restore your vigor and nourish you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law who loves you, who is worth more to you than seven sons, has borne a son to Boaz!”
16 Na: ioumi ea mano amo seba: le, amola noga: le fofoi.
So Naomi took the child in her arms and cared for him as if he was her own.
17 Amola uda gadenene fi misini, mano ea dio Oubede asuli. Ilia dunu huluane ilima adoi, “Na: ioumi e da dunu mano lalelegei dagoi!” Amola Oubede da asigilale amola mano ea dio amo Yesi lai. Yesi da Da: ibidi lalelegei.
The women of the neighborhood gave him a name, saying, “A son is born to Naomi!” They named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse, who was the father of David.
18 Goe da Bilese ea sosogo fi asili Da: ibidima doaga: i hou. Bilese amo da Heselone ea ada, Heselone e da Lame ea ada, Lame da A: minada: be ea ada, A:minada: be e da Nasone ea ada, Nasone da Sa: lamone ea ada, Sa: lamone da Boua: se ea ada, Oubede da Yesi ea ada, amola Yesi e da Da: ibidi ea ada. Amo fi da amane fifi misi goa. Sia: ama dagoi
This is the genealogy of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,
Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab,
Amminidab of Nashon, Nashon of Salmon,
Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed,
Obed of Jesse, Jesse of David.
