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.
Na rĩrĩ, Boazu akĩambata agĩthiĩ nginya kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra, agĩikara thĩ ho. Rĩrĩa mũndũ ũrĩa wa mbarĩ yao, ũrĩa Boazu aarĩtie ũhoro wake ookire-rĩ, Boazu akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrata wakwa, ũka haha ũikare thĩ.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ hau agĩikara thĩ.
2 And he taketh ten men of the elders of the city, and saith, 'Sit down here;' and they sit down.
Boazu agĩĩta athuuri ikũmi a itũũra akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ta ikarai thĩ haha!” Nao magĩĩka o ũguo.
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;
Ningĩ akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wa mbarĩ yao atĩrĩ, “Naomi ũrĩa ũracookire kuuma bũrũri wa Moabi-rĩ, nĩarendia gĩthaka kĩrĩa kĩarĩ kĩa Elimeleku, mũndũ wa mbarĩ ciitũ.
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].'
Ndagĩĩciiria ngũhe ũhoro ũcio na ngwĩre ũgũre gĩthaka kĩu ũrĩ mbere ya andũ aya maikarĩte haha o na mbere ya athuuri a andũ aitũ. Ũngĩkorwo nĩũgũgĩkũũra, ũgĩkũũre. No angĩkorwo ndũgwĩka ũguo-rĩ, ũnjĩĩre nĩguo menye. Nĩgũkorwo hatirĩ mũndũ ũngĩ ũrĩ na kĩhooto gĩa gwĩka ũguo tiga wee, na niĩ ngagũcooka.” Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũgĩkũũra.”
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.'
Boazu nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya ũrĩa ũkaagũra gĩthaka kĩu kuuma kũrĩ Naomi, na kuuma kũrĩ Ruthu ũrĩa Mũmoabi, nĩũkahikia mũtumia wa ndigwa wa mũndũ ũcio wakuire, nĩgeetha ũtũũrie rĩĩtwa rĩa ũcio ũkuĩte o hamwe na indo ciake.”
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.'
Na rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio wa mbarĩ yao aiguire ũguo-rĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndikũhota gũgĩkũũra, nĩ ũndũ ndahota gwĩthũkĩria ũgai wakwa niĩ mwene. Gĩgĩkũũre arĩ we. Niĩ ndingĩhota gwĩka ũguo.”
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.
(Matukũ-inĩ ma tene thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli-rĩ, mũtugo wa gũkũũra kana gũkũũrania indo nĩguo maũndũ mothe marĩkio wega, mũndũ ũmwe wa eene ũhoro aarutaga kĩraatũ gĩake agakĩnengera mũndũ ũcio ũngĩ. Kũu Isiraeli ĩno nĩyo yarĩ njĩra ya gwĩkĩra ũira atĩ ũndũ ũrĩa mũiguanĩre nĩwarĩĩkĩrĩra wega biũ.)
8 And the redeemer saith to Boaz, 'Buy [it] for thyself,' and draweth off his sandal.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ ũcio wa mbarĩ yao akĩĩra Boazu atĩrĩ, “Kĩgũre wee mwene.” Na akĩruta kĩraatũ gĩake, akĩmũnengera.
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;
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Boazu akĩĩra athuuri acio na andũ othe atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ mũrĩ aira akwa atĩ nĩndagũra indo ciothe cia Elimeleku, na cia Kilioni, na cia Mahaloni kuuma kũrĩ Naomi.
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.'
Ningĩ nĩndahikia Ruthu ũrĩa Mũmoabi, mũtumia wa ndigwa wa Mahaloni, atuĩke mũtumia wakwa, nĩguo ndũũrie rĩĩtwa rĩa ũcio ũkuĩte hamwe na indo ciake, nĩguo rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩtikaanoore nyũmba-inĩ yao, kana rĩehere maandĩko-inĩ marĩa maigĩtwo ma itũũra. Ũmũthĩ nĩmwatuĩka aira!”
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;
Ningĩ athuuri acio, o na andũ arĩa othe maikarĩte hau kĩhingo-inĩ, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũrĩ aira. Jehova arotũma mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio ũroka gwaku mũciĩ atuĩke o ta Rakeli na Lea, andũ-a-nja arĩa eerĩ maakire nyũmba ya Isiraeli. Ũromenyeka kũu Efiratha, na ũgĩe igweta inene kũu Bethilehemu.
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.'
Ciana iria Jehova egũkũhe kuuma kũrĩ mũirĩtu ũcio irotũma nyũmba yaku ĩhaane ta ya Perezu, ũrĩa Tamaru aaciarĩire Juda.”
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.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Boazu akĩhikia Ruthu, agĩtuĩka mũtumia wake. Ningĩ aakoma nake, Jehova agĩtũma Ruthu agĩe nda, na agĩciara kahĩĩ.
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,
Nao andũ-a-nja makĩĩra Naomi atĩrĩ, “Jehova arogoocwo, ũrĩa ũtagũtigĩte ũtarĩ na mũkũmenyereri. Kahĩĩ kau karogĩa ngumo njega Isiraeli guothe!
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.'
Kau nĩko gakerũhia mũtũũrĩre waku, na gagũtũũrie ũkũrũ-inĩ waku. Nĩ ũndũ mũtumia wa mũrũguo, ũrĩa ũkwendete na wa bata harĩ we gũkĩra aanake mũgwanja, nĩwe ũgaciarĩte.”
16 And Naomi taketh the lad, and layeth him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse;
Nake Naomi akĩoya kaana kau, agĩkaigĩrĩra ciero-inĩ ciake, agĩkarera.
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.
Nao andũ-a-nja arĩa maatũũraga kũu makiuga atĩrĩ, “Naomi arĩ na kahĩĩ.” Nao magĩgatua Obedi. Nake nĩwe warĩ ithe wa Jesii, ũrĩa warĩ ithe wa Daudi.
18 And these are genealogies of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron,
Ici nacio nĩcio njiaro cia Perezu: Perezu nĩwe warĩ ithe wa Hezironi,
19 and Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminidab,
nake Hezironi aarĩ ithe wa Ramu,
20 and Amminidab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,
nake Ramu aarĩ ithe wa Aminadabu, nake Aminadabu aarĩ ithe wa Nahashoni, nake Nahashoni aarĩ ithe wa Salimoni,
21 and Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
nake Salimoni aarĩ ithe wa Boazu, nake Boazu aarĩ ithe wa Obedi.
22 and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
nake Obedi aarĩ ithe wa Jesii, nake Jesii aarĩ ithe wa Daudi.
