Ruth 3
1 Afterward Naomi her mother in lawe said vnto her, My daughter, shall not I seeke rest for thee, that thou mayest prosper?
Awo Nawomi nnyazaala wa Luusi n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki sikunoonyeza maka ag’okubeeramu, bakulabiririre eyo?
2 Now also is not Boaz our kinsman, with whose maides thou wast? beholde, he winoweth barly to night in the floore.
Ewa Bowaazi gy’obadde n’abaweereza be abawala, ye muganda waffe. Kale, ekiro kya leero ajja kuba ng’awewa sayiri mu gguuliro.
3 Wash thy sellfe therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment vpon thee, and get thee downe to the floore: let not the man know of thee, vntill he haue left eating and drinking.
Kale naaba osaabe obuwoowo, era oyambale engoye zo ezisinga obulungi. Oluvannyuma oserengete mu gguuliro; naye tomuganya kumanya nti wooli, okutuusa ng’amaze okulya n’okunywa.
4 And when he shall sleepe, marke the place where he layeth him downe, and go, and vncouer the place of his feete, and lay thee downe, and he shall tell thee what thou shalt doe.
Oluvannyuma ng’agalamiddeko wansi, weetegereze ekifo w’agalamidde, ogende obikkule ku bigere bye emirannamiro, naawe ogalamire awo; anaakubuulira eky’okukola.”
5 And she answered her, All that thou biddest me, I will doe.
Awo Luusi n’amugamba nti, “Nzija kukola nga bw’ondagidde.”
6 So she went downe vnto the floore, and did according to all that her mother in lawe bade her.
N’aserengeta mu gguuliro, n’akola byonna nga nnyazaala we bwe yamulagira.
7 And when Boaz had eaten, and drunken, and cheared his heart, he went to lie downe at the end of the heape of corne, and she came softly, and vncouered the place of his feet, and lay downe.
Awo Bowaazi bwe yamala okulya n’okunywa, era nga musanyufu, n’agenda n’agalamira ku mabbali g’entuumo ye ŋŋaano. Luusi naye n’asooba mpola mpola, n’abikkula ku bigere bye, n’agalamira awo kumpi naye.
8 And at midnight the man was afraide and caught holde: and loe, a woman lay at his feete.
Ekiro mu ttumbi, Bowaazi ne yeekanga, bwe yeekyusa n’alaba omukazi agalamidde kumpi n’ebigere bye.
9 Then he sayd, Who art thou? And she answered, I am Ruth thine handmayd: spread therefore the wing of thy garment ouer thine handmayd: for thou art the kinsman.
N’amubuuza nti, “Ggwe ani?” Luusi n’addamu nti, “Nze Luusi omuweereza wo. Mbikkaako ku lugoye lwo kubanga oli mununuzi wa kika.”
10 Then sayd he, Blessed be thou of the Lord, my daughter: thou hast shewed more goodnes in the latter end, then at the beginning, in as much as thou followedst not yong men, were they poore or rich.
Bowaazi n’amuddamu nti, “Mukama Katonda akuwe omukisa muwala ggwe, olw’ekisa ekinene kyondaze okusinga eky’olubereberye, kubanga togenze wa bavubuka, abagagga oba abaavu.
11 And now, my daughter, feare not: I will doe to thee all that thou requirest: for all the citie of my people doeth knowe, that thou art a vertuous woman.
Kaakano, muwala ggwe, totya. Nzija kukukolera buli kintu kyonna ky’onoosaba. Abantu bange bonna ab’omu kibuga, bamanyi ng’oli mukazi mwegendereza.
12 And now, it is true that I am thy kinsman, howbeit there is a kinsman neerer then I.
Kya mazima ddala ndi mununuzi wo, naye waliwo ansingako.
13 Tarie to night, and when morning is come, if he will doe the duetie of a kinsman vnto thee, well, let him doe the kinsmans duetie: but if he will not doe the kinsmans part, then wil I doe the duetie of a kinsman, as the Lord liueth: sleepe vntill the morning.
Beera wano okutuusa obudde lwe bunaakya. Kale bw’anaayagala okukutwala, kinaaba kirungi; naye bw’anaaba nga tasiimye, Mukama Katonda nga bw’ali omulamu, nnaakutwala.”
14 And she lay at his feete vntill the morning: and she arose before one could know another: for he sayd, Let no man knowe, that a woman came into the floore.
N’agalamira kumpi n’ebigere bye okutuusa enkeera, naye n’agolokoka nga tebunnalaba addeyo eka. Naye Bowaazi n’amukuutira nti, “Kireme okumanyibwa nti omukazi yazzeeko mu gguuliro.”
15 Also he sayd, Bring the sheete that thou hast vpon thee, and holde it. And when she helde it, he measured sixe measures of barly, and layde them on her, and she went into the citie.
Era n’amugamba aleete omunagiro gw’ayambadde; n’agukwata, n’amugerera ebigero mukaaga ebya sayiri, n’abimutikka, oluvannyuma Luusi n’addayo mu kibuga.
16 And when she came to her mother in law, she sayd, Who art thou, my daughter? And she tolde her all that the man had done to her,
Bwe yatuuka eri nnyazaala we, Nawomi n’amubuuza nti, “Byagenze bitya muwala wange?” N’amubuulira ebintu byonna Bowaazi bye yamukoledde,
17 And said, These sixe measures of barly gaue he me: for he sayd to me, Thou shalt not come emptie vnto thy mother in lawe.
era n’ayongerako nti, “Yampadde ebigero bino omukaaga ebya sayiri, n’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Toddayo wa nnyazaala wo ngalo nsa.’”
18 Then sayd she, My daughter, sit still, vntill thou knowe how the thing will fall: for the man wil not be in rest, vntill he hath finished the matter this same day.
Nawomi n’amugamba nti, “Gumiikiriza, muwala wange, olabe ebigambo gye binakkira, kubanga leero omusajja oyo tajja kuwummula okutuusa ensonga eyo lw’anagimala.”
