< Ruth 4 >

1 Then went Boaz vp to the gate, and sate there, and beholde, the kinsman, of whome Boaz had spoken, came by: and he sayd, Ho, snch one, come, sit downe here. And he turned, and sate downe.
E thuolono Boaz nodhi e dhoranga dala mobet kanyo. Ka wat Ruth mahie mane owachocha ne kadho kanyo, Boaz noluonge kawacho niya, “Rawane ka, osiepna, kendo bed piny ka.” Omiyo ngʼatno nodhi ire mobet piny.
2 Then he tooke ten men of the Elders of the citie, and sayd, Sit ye downe here. And they sate downe.
Boaz nokawo jodongo apar mag dala kendo nowachonegi niya, “Beduru ane ka,” mine gitimo kamano.
3 And he said vnto ye kinsman, Naomi, that is come againe out of ye countrey of Moab, wil sell a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelechs.
Eka nowachone wat Ruth mahie niya, “Naomi ma yande odwogo koa Moab dwaro ngʼama ngʼiew puodho mane mar owadwa Elimelek.
4 And I thought to aduertise thee, saying, Buy it before the assistants, and before the Elders of my people. If thou wilt redeeme it, redeeme it: but if thou wilt not redeeme it, tel me: for I know that there is none besides thee to redeeme it, and I am after thee. Then he answered, I wil redeeme it.
Ne aneno ni ber mondo aket wachni e nyimi kendo aket parono e nyim joma obedo kagi kendo e nyim jodongo mag jowa, mondo ingʼiewe. Ka inyalo ware to ware, to ka ok inyal timo kamano to nyisa mondo angʼe. Nikech onge ngʼama chielo man-gi ratiro mar timo kamano makmana in kende, kendo an ema aluwi.” Nowacho niya, “Abiro ngʼiewo puodhono.”
5 Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou mnst also buy it of Ruth the Moabitesse the wife of the dead, to stirre vp the name of the dead, vpon his inheritance.
Eka Boaz nowacho niya, “E odiechiengʼ ma iningʼiewie puodhono kuom Naomi kendo kuom Ruth nyar Moab, ema inikawie chi ngʼat mothono, mondo ichung nying ngʼat mothono kaachiel gi mwandune.”
6 And the kinsman answered, I can not redeeme it, lest I destroy mine owne inheritance: redeeme my right to thee, for I can not redeeme it.
Kane wat dhakono owinjo wachno, nowacho niya, “Ka kamano to kare ok anyal ware nikech mano nyalo miyo akel chandruok ne mwanduna awuon. In ema mondo iware in iwuon. An ok anyal timo mano.”
7 Now this was the maner beforetime in Israel, concerning redeeming and changing, for to stablish all things: a man did plucke off his shooe, and gaue it his neighbour, and this was a sure witnes in Israel.
E kinde machon e piny Israel, mondo ne gimoro owar ma mi ngʼat machielo, ne chuno ni ngʼato achiel kuom jogo nyaka lony wuochene kendo omi ngʼat machielo, mano ne miyo winjruogno ok nyal loki. Mano e yo mane igurogo gimoro amora mane iwilo gi chik e piny Israel.
8 Therefore the kinsman sayd to Boas, Buy it for thee: and he drew off his shooe.
Kuom mano, wat dhakono nowachone Boaz niya, “In, ema mondo ingʼiewe.” Kendo nolonyo wuochene.
9 And Boaz sayd vnto the Elders and vnto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I haue bought all that was Elimelechs, and all that was Chilions and Mahlons, of the hand of Naomi.
Eka Boaz nolando ne jodongo gi ji duto kowacho niya, “Kawuono udoko joneno ka angʼiewo kuom Naomi mwandu duto mag Elimelek gi Kilion kod Malon.
10 And moreouer, Ruth the Moabitesse the wife of Mahlon, haue I bought to be my wife, to stirre vp the name of the dead vpon his inheritance, and that the name of the dead be not put out from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.
Ruth nyar Moab, ma chi Malon, bende asekawo kaka chiega, mondo achung-go nying ngʼat motho gi mwandune, mondo nyinge kik lal e dier anywolane, kata e kitabu mondikie nying joma odak e dala-ka. Kawuononi udoko joneno!”
11 And all the people that were in the gate, and the Elders sayd, We are witnesses: the Lord make the wife that commeth into thine house, like Rahel and like Leah, which twaine did build the house of Israel: and that thou mayest doe worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Beth-lehem,
Eka jodongo kaachiel gi ji duto mane ni e rangach nowacho niya, “Wan joneno. Mad Jehova Nyasaye mi dhako mabiro e dalani ochal gi Rael gi Lea, ma nochungo dhood Israel, kargi ji ariyo. Mad ibed ngʼat maduongʼ ei Efratha kendo ibed ngʼat marahuma ei Bethlehem.
12 And that thine house be like the house of Pharez (whom Thamar bare vnto Iudah) of the seede which the Lord shall giue thee of this yong woman.
Koa kuom nyithindo ma Jehova Nyasaye biro miyi kuom dhakoni ma pod tin-ni, mad odi bi chal gi mar Perez mane Tamar onywolo ne Juda.”
13 So Boaz tooke Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in vnto her, the Lord gaue that she conceiued, and bare a sonne.
Kuom mano Boaz nokawo Ruth mine odoko chiege. Bangʼe noriwore kode, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo omako ich, kendo nonywolo nyathi ma wuowi.
14 And the women sayd vnto Naomi, Blessed be the Lord, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, and his name shalbe continued in Israel.
Mon nowachone Naomi niya, “Opak Jehova Nyasaye kawuononi nikech ok osejwangʼi, nimar osemiyi nyakwari. Mad obed ngʼat marahuma e piny Israel duto!
15 And this shall bring thy life againe, and cherish thine olde age: for thy daughter in lawe which loueth thee, hath borne vnto him, and she is better to thee then seuen sonnes.
Obiro duogo ngimani kendo obiro riti ndalo ma iti. Nikech chi wuodi moheri kendo maberni moloyo yawuowi abiriyo, ema osenywole.”
16 And Naomi tooke the childe, and layde it in her lap, and became nource vnto it.
Eka Naomi nokawo nyathino mi noriwe e tiende, kendo ne orite.
17 And the women her neighbours gaue it a name, saying, There is a childe borne to Naomi, and called the name thereof Obed: the same was the father of Ishai, the father of Dauid.
Mon mane odak kanyo nowacho niya, “Naomi nigi wuowi.” Kendo negichake ni Obed. En ema ne en wuon Jesse ma wuon Daudi.
18 These now are ye generations of Pharez: Pharez begate Hezron,
Koro ma e anywola joka Perez: Perez ne en wuon Hezron,
19 And Hezron begate Ram, and Ram begate Amminadab,
Hezron ne en wuon Ram, Ram ne en wuon Aminadab,
20 And Amminadab begate Nahshon, and Nahshon begate Salmah,
Aminadab ne en wuon Nashon, Nashon ne en wuon Salmon,
21 And Salmon begate Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
Salmon ne en wuon Boaz, Boaz ne en wuon Obed,
22 And Obed begate Ishai, and Ishai begate Dauid.
Obed ne en wuon Jesse, to Jesse ne en wuon Daudi.
