Rute 2
1 Naomi anali ndi mʼbale wake wolemera kwambiri wochokera ku banja la mwamuna wake Elimeleki, dzina lake Bowazi.
And Naomi has an acquaintance of her husband’s, a man mighty in wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name [is] Boaz.
2 Tsiku lina Rute, Mmowabu uja anati kwa Naomi, “Mundilole kuti ndikakunkhe barele ku munda wa munthu aliyense amene akandikomere mtima.” Naomi anati kwa iye, “Pita mwana wanga.”
And Ruth the Moabitess says to Naomi, “Please let me go into the field, and I gather among the ears of grain after him in whose eyes I find grace”; and she says to her, “Go, my daughter.”
3 Choncho Rute ananyamuka kupita kukakunkha ku minda yokololedwa kale. Tsono zinangochitika kuti Rute anafika mʼmunda wa Bowazi, yemwe anali wochokera ku banja la Elimeleki.
And she goes and comes and gathers in a field after the reapers, and her chance happens—the portion of the field is Boaz’s who [is] of the family of Elimelech.
4 Posakhalitsa Bowazi anafika kuchokera ku Betelehemu ndipo analonjera okolola aja kuti, “Yehova akhale nanu!” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Yehova akudalitseni.”
And behold, Boaz has come from Beth-Lehem, and says to the reapers, “YHWH [is] with you”; and they say to him, “YHWH blesses you.”
5 Bowazi anafunsa kapitawo wake amene ankayangʼanira okolola aja kuti, “Mayi uyo ndi ndani?”
And Boaz says to his young man who is set over the reapers, “Whose [is] this young person?”
6 Kapitawo uja anayankha kuti, “Mayiyu ndi Mmowabu amene anabwera ndi Naomi kuchokera ku dziko la Mowabu.
And the young man who is set over the reapers answers and says, “A young woman—Moabitess—she [is], who came back with Naomi from the fields of Moab,
7 Iye anandipempha kuti, ‘Chonde mundilole kuti ndikunkhe barele mʼminda moti akololamo kale.’ Iye wakhala akukunkha kuyambira mmawa mpaka tsopano lino osapuma nʼpangʼono pomwe.”
and she says, Please let me glean and I have gathered among the sheaves after the reapers; and she comes and remains since the morning and until now; she sat in the house a little [while].”
8 Choncho Bowazi anati kwa Rute, “Tamvera mwana wanga, usapite kukakunkha mʼmunda wina, ndipo usachoke mʼmunda uno. Koma uzitsata adzakazi angawa.
And Boaz says to Ruth, “Have you not heard, my daughter? Do not go to glean in another field, and also, do not pass over from here, and thus you cleave to my young women:
9 Uziyangʼana munda akukolola anyamatawo akamakolola mʼmundamu, ndipo iwe uzitsata pambuyo pawo. Ndawawuza anyamatawo kuti asakuvutitse. Ndipo ukamva ludzu, uzipita ku mitsuko ndi kukamwa madzi amene anyamatawa atunga.”
your eyes [are] on the field which they reap, and you have gone after them; have I not charged the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty then you have gone to the vessels, and have drunk from that which the young men draw.”
10 Atamva zimenezi Rute anawerama nazolikitsa nkhope yake pansi. Kenaka anafunsa kuti, “Mwandikomera mtima chotere mlendo ngati ine chifukwa chiyani?”
And she falls on her face, and bows herself to the earth, and says to him, “Why have I found grace in your eyes, to discern me, and I a stranger?”
11 Bowazi anayankha kuti, “Ine ndawuzidwa zonse zimene wakhala ukuchitira apongozi ako chimwalirire mwamuna wako. Ndamvanso kuti unasiya abambo ndi amayi ako komanso dziko la kwanu ndi kubwera kudzakhala ndi anthu amene sumawadziwa ndi kale lonse.
And Boaz answers and says to her, “It has been thoroughly declared to me all that you have done with your mother-in-law, after the death of your husband, and you leave your father, and your mother, and the land of your birth, and come to a people which you have not known before.
12 Yehova akubwezere pa zimene wachitazi. Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, amene wabwera pansi pa mapiko ake kuti akuteteze, akupatse mphotho yayikulu.”
YHWH repays your work, and your reward is complete from YHWH, God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
13 Rute anati, “Mwandikomera mtima, mbuye wanga. Ndipo mwandisangalatsa ndi kundiyankhula mwa chifundo ngakhale sindili mmodzi mwa adzakazi anu.”
And she says, “Let me find grace in your eyes, my lord, because you have comforted me, and because you have spoken to the heart of your maidservant, and I am not as one of your maidservants.”
14 Nthawi ya chakudya cha masana Bowazi anati kwa iye, “Bwera kuno, utenge buledi ndi kusunsa nthongo mu vinyo.” Choncho anakhala pansi pafupi ndi okololawo, ndipo Bowazi anamupatsa chakudya ndi nyama yowotcha. Anadya chilichonse amafuna ndipo chakudya china chinatsalako.
And Boaz says to her, “At meal-time come near here, and you have eaten of the bread, and dipped your morsel in the vinegar.” And she sits at the side of the reapers, and he reaches to her roasted grain, and she eats, and is satisfied, and leaves.
15 Atanyamuka kuti azikakunkha, Bowazi analangiza anyamata ake kuti, “Ngakhale mayiyu azikunkha pakati pa mitolo musamuletse ndi kumuchititsa manyazi.
And she rises to glean, and Boaz charges his young men, saying, “Even between the sheaves she gleans, and you do not cause her to blush;
16 Koma muzimusololerako ngala zina za mʼmitolo ndi kumusiyira kuti azikunkha ndipo musamukalipire.”
and also you surely cast to her of the handfuls—and have left, and she has gleaned, and you do not push against her.”
17 Choncho Rute anakunkha mʼmundamo mpaka madzulo. Kenaka anapuntha barele anakunkhayo, ndipo anakwanira pafupifupi makilogalamu khumi.
And she gleans in the field until the evening, and beats out that which she has gleaned, and it is about an ephah of barley;
18 Anasenza barele uja kupita naye ku mudzi, nakaonetsa apongozi ake. Kenaka anatulutsa chakudya chimene chinatsalira atakhuta chija ndi kupatsa apongozi ake.
and she takes [it] up, and goes into the city, and her mother-in-law sees that which she has gleaned, and she brings out and gives to her that which she left from her satiety.
19 Apongozi akewo anamufunsa kuti, “Kodi lero unakakunkha kuti? Unakagwira kuti ntchitoyi? Adalitsike munthu amene anakukomera mtimayo.” Ndipo Rute anawuza mpongozi wake za munthu amene ku malo ake anakagwirako ntchito. Iye anati, “Munthuyo dzina lake ndi Bowazi.”
And her mother-in-law says to her, “Where have you gleaned today? And where have you worked? May he who is discerning you be blessed.” And she declares to her mother-in-law with whom she has worked, and says, “The name of the man with whom I have worked today [is] Boaz.”
20 Naomi anati kwa mpongozi wakeyo, “Munthu ameneyu amudalitse Yehova, amene sanasiye kuchitira chifundo anthu amoyo ndi akufa omwe. Anatinso munthu ameneyu ndi mnansi wapaphata. Ndiye ali ndi udindo wotisamalira.”
And Naomi says to her daughter-in-law, “Blessed [is] he of YHWH who has not forsaken His kindness with the living and with the dead”; and Naomi says to her, “The man is a relation of ours; he [is] of our redeemers.”
21 Choncho Rute Mmowabuyo anati, “Iye anandiwuzanso kuti, ‘Uzitsata antchito angawa mpaka atamaliza kukolola munda wonse.’”
And Ruth the Moabitess says, “Also he surely said to me, Near the young people whom I have you cleave until they have completed the whole of the harvest which I have.”
22 Naomi anati kwa Rute mpongozi wake, “Kuli bwino mwana wanga kuti uzipita ndi adzakazi ake kuopa kuti mʼmunda wa munthu wina angakuvute.”
And Naomi says to her daughter-in-law Ruth, “Good, my daughter, that you go out with his young women, and they do not come against you in another field.”
23 Choncho Rute ankatsatira adzakazi a Bowazi namakunkha mpaka anthu atamaliza kudula barele ndi tirigu. Ndipo amakhalabe ndi mpongozi wakeyo.
And she cleaves to the young women of Boaz to glean, until the completion of the barley-harvest, and of the wheat-harvest, and she dwells with her mother-in-law.
