Ruth 4
1 And Boaz has gone up to the gate, and sits there, and behold, the redeemer is passing by of whom Boaz had spoken, and he says, “Turn aside, sit down here, such a one, such a one”; and he turns aside and sits down.
Nthawi yomweyo Bowazi anapita ku chipata cha mzinda ndi kukhala pansi kumeneko pabwalo losonkhanira. Tsono anangoona wachibale woyenera kulowa chokolo uja akufika. Ndipo Bowazi anati, “Patukirani kuno, bwenzi langa. Mubwere mudzakhale apa.” Choncho anapatuka nakakhala pansi.
2 And he takes ten men from [the] elderly of the city, and says, “Sit down here”; and they sit down.
Bowazi anayitananso akuluakulu khumi a mu mzindamo nati, “Dzakhaleni pansi apa,” ndipo anadzakhala pansi.
3 And he says to the redeemer, “A portion of the field which [is] to our brother, to Elimelech, has Naomi sold, who has come back from the fields of Moab;
Kenaka anamuwuza oyenera kulowa chokolo uja kuti, “Naomi amene wabwera kuchoka ku Mowabu akugulitsa malo amene anali a malemu Elimeleki, mʼbale wathu uja.
4 and I said, I uncover your ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants and before [the] elderly of my people; if you redeem—redeem, and if none redeems—declare [it] to me and I know, for there is none except you to redeem, and I after you.” And he says, “I redeem [it].”
Choncho ndinaganiza zokuwuza zimenezi kuti ugule mundawu pamaso pa anthu amene ali panowa, ndi pamaso pa akuluakulu mwa abale athu. Ngati ukufuna kuwuwombola, uwombole. Koma ngati sukufuna, undiwuze kuti ndidziwe, pakuti palibe wina angawuwombole koma iweyo, ndipo pambuyo pa iwe pali ine.” Iye anati, “Ine ndidzawuwombola.”
5 And Boaz says, “In the day of your buying the field from the hand of Naomi, then from Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, you have bought [it], to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance.”
Tsono Bowazi anati, “Tsiku limene ukagule mundawo kwa Naomi, udzatenganso Rute Mmowabu, mkazi wamasiye uja, kuti dzina la malemu lisungike pa cholowa chake.”
6 And the redeemer says, “I am not able to redeem [it] for myself, lest I destroy my inheritance; redeem for yourself—you—my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem.”
Pamenepo wachibaleyo anati, “Sindingathe kuwuwombola mundawu kuti ukhale wanga, kuopa kuti kutaya cholowa changa. Mugule ndinu. Ine sindingathe.”
7 And this [is] formerly in Israel for redemption and for exchanging, to establish anything: a man has drawn off his sandal, and given [it] to his neighbor, and this [is] the Testimony in Israel.
(Kale mu Israeli zinkatere ngati munthu afuna kuwombola kanthu kapena kusinthana kanthu ndi mnzake kuti chikhale chakechake. Iye ankavula nsapato imodzi namupatsa mnzakeyo. Imeneyo ndiyo inali njira yochitira umboni mu Israeli).
8 And the redeemer says to Boaz, “Buy [it] for yourself,” and draws off his sandal.
Choncho wachibale uja atawuza Bowazi kuti, “Gulani ndinu mundawu.” Iye anavula nsapato yake namupatsa Bowazi.
9 And Boaz says to the elderly, and [to] all the people, “You [are] witnesses today that I have bought all that [belonged] to Elimelech, and all that [belonged] to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi;
Ndipo Bowazi anawuza akuluakuluwo ndi anthu onse aja kuti, “Nonsenu ndinu mboni lero, kuti ine ndagula kwa Naomi zonse zimene zinali za malemu Elimeleki, zonse zimene zinali za malemu Kiliyoni ndiponso za malemu Maloni.
10 and also Ruth the Moabitess, wife of Mahlon, I have bought to myself for a wife, to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance; and the name of the dead is not cut off from among his brothers, and from the gate of his place; witnesses you [are] today.”
Ndatenganso Rute Mmowabu uja mkazi wa malemu Maloni, kuti akhale mkazi wanga, kuti dzina la malemu Maloni lisungike pa cholowa chake, ndipo lisafafanizike pakati pa abale ake ngakhalenso mʼmudzi mwake. Nonsenu ndinu mboni lero lino.”
11 And all the people who [are] in the gate say—also the elderly, “Witnesses! YHWH makes the woman who is coming to your house as Rachel and as Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and you do virtuously in Ephrathah, and proclaim the name in Beth-Lehem;
Ndipo akuluakulu aja ndi anthu onse amene anali pa chipata anati, “Ife ndife mboni, ndipo Yehova amusandutsa mkazi amene akudzalowa mʼnyumba yakoyu kuti akhale ngati Rakele ndi Leya, amene anamanga banja la Israeli. Ukhale munthu wosasowa kanthu mu Efurata ndi munthu wotchuka mu Betelehemu.
12 and let your house be as the house of Perez (whom Tamar bore to Judah), of the seed which YHWH gives to you of this young woman.”
Ana amene Yehova adzakupatsa mwa mkaziyu adzamange banja lako kukhala la Perezi, amene Tamara anamubalira Yuda.”
13 And Boaz takes Ruth, and she becomes his wife, and he goes in to her, and YHWH gives conception to her, and she bears a son.
Choncho Bowazi anakwatira Rute. Yehova anamudalitsa nakhala ndi pakati, ndipo anabereka mwana wamwamuna.
14 And the women say to Naomi, “Blessed [is] YHWH who has not let a redeemer cease to you today, and his name is proclaimed in Israel,
Ndipo amayi osiyanasiyana anati kwa Naomi. “Alemekezeke Yehova, amene lero lino sanakusiyeni nokha wopanda wachibale. Mwanayu dzina lake likhale lotchuka mu Israeli.
15 and he has been to you for a restorer of life, and for a nourisher of your old age, for your daughter-in-law who has loved you—who is better to you than seven sons—has borne him.”
Mwanayo adzakupatseni moyo watsopano ndi kukuthandizani pa ukalamba wanu. Inde, mpongozi wanu amene amakukondani, amenenso waonetsa kuti ali wopambana kwa inu kuposa ana aamuna asanu ndi awiri, ndiye wakubalirani mwanayu.”
16 And Naomi takes the boy, and lays him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse;
Kenaka Naomi anatenga mwanayo namufukata ndipo anakhala mlezi.
17 and the neighboring women give a name to him, saying, “There has been a son born to Naomi,” and they call his name Obed; he [is] father of Jesse, father of David.
Amayi achinansi ake anati, “Naomi ali ndi mwana wamwamuna.” Ndipo anamutcha dzina lake Obedi. Iye anali abambo a Yese abambo ake a Davide.
18 And these are generations of Perez: Perez begot Hezron,
Izi tsono ndizo zidzukulu za Perezi: Perezi anali abambo a Hezironi.
19 and Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminidab,
Hezironi anali abambo a Ramu, Ramu anali abambo a Aminadabu,
20 and Amminidab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
Aminadabu abambo a Naasoni, Naasoni anali abambo a Salimoni,
21 and Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed,
Salimoni abambo a Bowazi, Bowazi abambo a Obedi.
22 and Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David.
Obedi anali abambo a Yese, ndipo Yese anali abambo a Davide.
