< Ruth 4 >
1 Now Boaz went up to the gate, and sat him down there; and, behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by; unto whom he said: 'Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here.' And he turned aside, and sat down.
Wana Boazi akendeki na ekuke ya engumba mpe avandaki kuna, amonaki mosikoli, oyo Boazi alobaki ete ye nde azali na ndingisa ya kosikola Rite, azali koleka. Boazi alobaki na ye: « Ndeko na ngai ya mobali, yaka nanu mpe vanda awa. » Moto yango apusanaki mpe avandaki.
2 And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said: 'Sit ye down here.' And they sat down.
Boazi abengaki mibali zomi kati na bakambi ya engumba mpe asengaki ete bavanda na bango elongo. Tango bavandaki,
3 And he said unto the near kinsman: 'Naomi, that is come back out of the field of Moab, selleth the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech's;
Boazi alobaki na mosikoli ya Rite: — Naomi oyo awutaki na mokili ya Moabi azali koteka elanga ya Elimeleki, ndeko na biso.
4 and I thought to disclose it unto thee, saying: Buy it before them that sit here, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem it; but if it will not be redeemed, then tell me, that I may know; for there is none to redeem it beside thee; and I am after thee.' And he said: 'I will redeem it.'
Ngai nazwaki likanisi ya koyebisa yo mpe kosenga na yo ete osomba na yo yango na miso ya bavandi ya engumba mpe ya bakambi oyo bazali awa. Soki ondimi kosomba yango, somba na yo. Soki te, yebisa ngai mpo ete nayeba; pamba te yo nde ozali moto ya liboso oyo azali na ndingisa ya kosomba yango, mpe ngai nazali na ndingisa sima na yo. Moto yango azongiselaki ye: — Iyo, nakosomba yango.
5 Then said Boaz: 'What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi — hast thou also bought of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance?'
Boazi alobaki: — Na mokolo oyo okosomba elanga na maboko ya Naomi, okozwa mpe Rite, moto ya Moabi, mwasi akufisa mobali; mpo na kosala ete kombo ya mowei etikala na libula na ye.
6 And the near kinsman said: 'I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I mar mine own inheritance; take thou my right of redemption on thee; for I cannot redeem it.' —
Mosikoli alobaki: — Nakoki kosikola yango te, noki te nakotia mobulu kati na libula na ngai. Sikola yango yo moko, pamba te ngai nakoki te kosala yango.
7 Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man drew off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbour; and this was the attestation in Israel. —
Nzokande, na tango ya kala kati na Isalaele, mpo na kosikola mpe kopesa libula, moto moko azalaki kolongola sapatu na ye mpe kopesa yango epai ya moto mosusu. Sapatu yango ezalaki lokola elembo ya litatoli kati na Isalaele.
8 So the near kinsman said unto Boaz: 'Buy it for thyself.' And he drew off his shoe.
Mosikoli alobaki na Boazi: — Yo moko somba yango. Boye, alongolaki sapatu na ye.
9 And Boaz said unto the elders, and unto all the people: 'Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's, of the hand of Naomi.
Boazi ayebisaki bampaka mpe bato nyonso: — Bino moko bozali batatoli ete nasombi na maboko ya Naomi libula nyonso ya Elimeleki, ya Kilioni mpe ya Maaloni.
10 Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I acquired to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place; ye are witnesses this day.'
Nazwi lisusu Rite, moto ya Moabi, oyo azalaki mwasi ya Maaloni oyo akufa, mpo ete azala mwasi na ngai, mpo na kosala ete kombo na ye etikala na libula na ye, ete ebunga te kati na bandeko na ye mpe kati na buku ya leta ya engumba na ye. Bino bozali batatoli na yango lelo.
11 And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said: 'We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that is come into thy house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel; and do thou worthily in Ephrath, and be famous in Beth-lehem;
Boye, bampaka mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki na ekuke ya engumba balobaki: — Iyo, biso moko tozali batatoli. Tika ete Yawe akomisa mwasi oyo azali koya na ndako na yo, lokola Rasheli mpe Lea, oyo batongaki elongo libota ya Isalaele. Tika ete okoma moto monene kati na Efrata mpe moto ya lokumu kati na Beteleemi!
12 and let thy house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this young woman.'
Tika ete bakitani oyo Yawe akopesa yo na nzela ya elenge mwasi oyo, bakomisa ndako na yo lokola ndako ya Peretsi oyo Tamari abotelaki Yuda!
13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife; and he went in unto her, and the LORD gave her conception, and she bore a son.
Boye, Boazi akamataki Rite mpe abalaki ye. Sima na Boazi kosangisa na ye nzoto, Yawe asalelaki Rite ngolu: azwaki zemi mpe abotaki mwana mobali.
14 And the women said unto Naomi: 'Blessed be the LORD, who hath not left thee this day without a near kinsman, and let his name be famous in Israel.
Basi balobaki na Naomi: « Tika ete Yawe akumisama; Ye oyo, na mokolo ya lelo, atiki yo te kozanga mosikoli oyo kombo na ye ekokende sango kati na Isalaele!
15 And he shall be unto thee a restorer of life, and a nourisher of thine old age; for thy daughter-in-law, who loveth thee, who is better to thee than seven sons, hath borne him.'
Akoyeisa bomoi na yo sika mpe akosunga yo na kimobange na yo, pamba te bokilo na yo, oyo alingaka yo mpe azali na motuya na miso na yo koleka bana mibali sambo, aboteli yo mwana mobali. »
16 And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse unto it.
Naomi azwaki mwana, atiaki ye na tolo na ye mpe akomaki mama mobokoli na ye.
17 And the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying: 'There is a son born to Naomi'; and they called his name Obed; he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
Basi ya mboka wana balobaki: « Naomi aboti mwana mobali! » Bapesaki mwana mobali yango kombo « Obedi. » Obedi abotaki Izayi, mpe Izayi abotaki Davidi.
18 Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez begot Hezron;
Tala libota ya Peretsi: Peretsi abotaki Etsironi,
19 and Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminadab;
Etsironi abotaki Rami, Rami abotaki Aminadabi,
20 and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon;
Aminadabi abotaki Nashoni, Nashoni abotaki Salima,
21 and Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed;
Salima abotaki Boazi, Boazi abotaki Obedi,
22 and Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David.
Obedi abotaki Izayi, Izayi abotaki Davidi.
