Ruth 4
1 And Boaz hath gone up to the gate, and sitteth there, and lo, the redeemer is passing by of whom Boaz had spoken, and he saith, 'Turn aside, sit down here, such a one, such a one;' and he turneth aside and sitteth 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 taketh ten men of the elders of the city, and saith, 'Sit down here;' and they sit down.
Bowazi anayitananso akuluakulu khumi a mu mzindamo nati, “Dzakhaleni pansi apa,” ndipo anadzakhala pansi.
3 And he saith to the redeemer, 'A portion of the field which [is] to our brother, to Elimelech, hath Naomi sold, who hath 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 thine ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people; if thou dost redeem — redeem, and if none doth redeem — declare to me, and I know, for there is none save thee to redeem, and I after thee.' And he saith, 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 saith, 'In the day of thy buying the field from the hand of Naomi, then from Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, thou hast 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 saith, 'I am not able to redeem [it] for myself, lest I destroy mine inheritance; redeem for thyself — thou — 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 changing, to establish anything: a man hath drawn off his sandal, and given [it] to his neighbour, 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 saith to Boaz, 'Buy [it] for thyself,' and draweth off his sandal.
Choncho wachibale uja atawuza Bowazi kuti, “Gulani ndinu mundawu.” Iye anavula nsapato yake namupatsa Bowazi.
9 And Boaz saith to the elders, and [to] all the people, 'Witnesses [are] ye to-day that I have bought all that [is] to Elimelech, and all that [is] 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 brethren, and from the gate of his place; witnesses ye [are] to-day.'
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 elders — 'Witnesses! Jehovah make the woman who is coming in unto thy house as Rachel and as Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and do thou 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 thy house be as the house of Pharez (whom Tamar bare to Judah), of the seed which Jehovah doth give to thee of this young woman.'
Ana amene Yehova adzakupatsa mwa mkaziyu adzamange banja lako kukhala la Perezi, amene Tamara anamubalira Yuda.”
13 And Boaz taketh Ruth, and she becometh his wife, and he goeth in unto her, and Jehovah giveth to her conception, and she beareth a son.
Choncho Bowazi anakwatira Rute. Yehova anamudalitsa nakhala ndi pakati, ndipo anabereka mwana wamwamuna.
14 And the women say unto Naomi, 'Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not let a redeemer cease to thee to-day, 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 hath been to thee for a restorer of life, and for a nourisher of thine old age, for thy daughter-in-law who hath loved thee — who is better to thee than seven sons — hath 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 taketh the lad, and layeth him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse;
Kenaka Naomi anatenga mwanayo namufukata ndipo anakhala mlezi.
17 and the neighbouring women give to him a name, saying, 'There hath 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 genealogies of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron,
Izi tsono ndizo zidzukulu za Perezi: Perezi anali abambo a Hezironi.
19 and Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminidab,
Hezironi anali abambo a Ramu, Ramu anali abambo a Aminadabu,
20 and Amminidab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,
Aminadabu abambo a Naasoni, Naasoni anali abambo a Salimoni,
21 and Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
Salimoni abambo a Bowazi, Bowazi abambo a Obedi.
22 and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
Obedi anali abambo a Yese, ndipo Yese anali abambo a Davide.
