Ruth 3
1 After she was returned to her mother in law, Noemi said to her: My daughter, I will seek rest for thee, and will provide that it may be well with thee.
Wata rana Na’omi surukar Rut ta ce mata, “’Yata, bai kamata in nema miki gida, inda za a tanada miki da kyau?
2 This Booz, with whose maids thou wast joined in the field, is our near kinsman, and behold this night he winnoweth barley in the threshingfloor.
Bowaz wanda kike aiki da bayinsa’yan mata ba danginmu ne na kusa ba? Da daren yau zai sussuka sha’ir nasa a masussuka.
3 Wash thyself therefore and anoint thee, and put on thy best garments, and go down to the barnfloor: but let not the man see thee, till he shall have done eating and drinking.
Ki yi wanka ki fesa turare, ki kuma sa tufafinki mafi kyau. Sa’an nan ki gangara zuwa masussuka, amma kada ki bari yă san cewa kina a can sai ya gama ci da sha.
4 And when he shall go to sleep, mark the place wherein he sleepeth: and thou shalt go in, and lift up the clothes wherewith he is covered towards his feet, and shalt lay thyself down there: and he will tell thee what thou must do.
Sa’ad da ya kwanta, ki lura da inda yake kwance. Sa’an nan ki tafi ki buɗe ƙafafunsa ki kwanta. Zai faɗa miki abin da za ki yi.”
5 She answered: Whatsoever thou shalt command, I will do.
Rut ta amsa ta ce “Zan yi abin da kika faɗa.”
6 And she went down to the barnfloor, and did all that her mother in law had bid her.
Saboda haka ta gangara zuwa masussuka ta kuma yi dukan abin da surukarta ta ce ta yi.
7 And when Booz had eaten, and drunk, and was merry, he went to sleep by the heap of sheaves, and she came softly and uncovering his feet, laid herself down.
Sa’ad da Bowaz ya gama ci da sha yana kuma cikin farin ciki, sai ya tafi ya kwanta a ƙarshen tarin hatsi. Rut kuwa ta sulalle ta je ta buɗe ƙafafunsa ta kwanta.
8 And behold, when it was now midnight the man was afraid, and troubled: and he saw a woman lying at his feet,
Da tsakar dare sai wani abu ya firgitar da mutumin, ya kuwa juya sai ya tarar da mace kwance a ƙafafunsa.
9 And he said to her: Who art thou? And she answered: I am Ruth thy handmaid: spread thy coverlet over thy servant, for thou art a near kinsman.
Sai ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Ke wace ce?” Ta amsa ta ce, “Ni ce baranyarka Rut, ka rufe ni ta mayafinka da yake kai dangi, mai fansa ne na kusa.”
10 And he said: Blessed art thou of the Lord, my daughter, and thy latter kindness has surpassed the former: because thou hast not followed young men either poor or rich.
Sai ya amsa ya ce, “Ubangiji yă albarkace ki’yata. Wannan alheri ya fi wannan da kika nuna da farko. Ba ki gudu kin bi saurayi, mai arziki ko matalauci ba.
11 Fear not therefore, but whatsoever thou shalt say to me I will do to thee. For all the people that dwell within the gates of my city, know that thou art a virtuous woman.
Yanzu kuwa’yata kada ki ji tsoro. Zan yi miki dukan abin da kika roƙa. Dukan’yan’uwana na gari sun san cewa ke mace ce mai halin kirki.
12 Neither do I deny myself to be near of kin, but there is another nearer than I.
Ko da yake gaskiya ne ni dangi ne na kusa, amma akwai dangi mai fansa mafi kusa fiye da ni.
13 Rest thou this night: and when morning is come, if he will take thee by the right of kindred, all is well: but if he will not, I will undoubtedly take thee, as the Lord liveth: sleep till the morning.
Ki kwana a nan, da safe kuwa in yana so yă fansa, to, da kyau, sai yă fansa. Amma in ba ya niyya, tabbatacce, na rantse da Ubangiji mai rai zan yi. Ki kwanta a nan sai da safe.”
14 So she slept at his feet till the night was going off. And she arose before men could know one another, and Booz said: Beware lest any man know that thou camest hither.
Saboda haka ta kwanta a ƙafafunsa sai da safe, amma ta tashi kafin a gane wani, sai ya ce, “Kada ki bar wani yă san cewa mace ta zo masussuka.”
15 And again he said: Spread thy mantle, wherewith thou art covered, and hold it with both hands. And when she spread it and held it, he measured six measures of barley, and laid it upon her. And she carried it and went into the city,
Ya kuma ce, “Ki kawo gyalenki da kika yafa ki shimfiɗa shi a nan.” Sa’ad da ta yi haka, sai ya zuba mudu shida na sha’ir ya sa mata a kai. Sa’an nan ya koma gari.
16 And came to her mother in law; who said to her: What hast thou done, daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.
Sa’ad da Rut ta koma wurin surukarta Na’omi ta tambaye ta “Yaya aka yi’yata?” Sai ta faɗa mata dukan abin da Bowaz ya yi mata
17 And she said: Behold he hath given me six measures of barley: for he said: I will not have thee return empty to thy mother in law.
ta kuma ƙara da cewa, “Ya ba ni waɗannan mudu shida na sha’ir, yana cewa, ‘Kada ki koma wurin surukarki hannu wofi.’”
18 And Noemi said: Wait my daughter, till we see what end the thing will have. For the man will not rest until he have accomplished what he hath said.
Sai Na’omi ta ce, “Ki jira,’yata, sai kin ga abin da zai faru. Gama mutumin ba zai huta ba sai an warware batun a yau.”
