Pea naʻe ʻia Naomi ha kāinga ʻo hono husepāniti, ko e tangata koloaʻia lahi ʻaupito, ʻi he fale ʻo ʻElimeleki, pea ko hono hingoa ko Poasi.
2 Gbe ɖeka la, Rut gblɔ na Naomi be, “Medi be mayi dɔmenyotɔ aɖe ƒe agble ne mafɔ nuku si nuxalawo gblẽ ɖi la va aƒe me.” Naomi gblɔ be, “Enyo; heyi.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Lute ko e fefine Moape kia Naomi, “Ke ke tuku au ke u ʻalu ni ki he ngoue, pea tufi ʻae ngaahi ʻuluʻi uite ʻo muimui ʻiate ia, ʻaia te u maʻu ai ʻae fiemālie ʻi hono ʻao.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻĀ ʻeku tama, ke ke ʻalu.”
3 Ale Rut yi. Nukutɔe la, agble si me wòyi la nye Boaz, ame si nye Naomi srɔ̃, Elimelek ƒe ƒometɔ la tɔ.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia, pea hoko ʻo tufi ʻi he ngoue ʻo muimui ʻi he kau tuʻusi: pea tā ne mālie ʻia ʻene hoko ki he potu ʻoe ngoue naʻe ʻia Poasi, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he kāinga ʻo ʻElimeleki.
4 Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, Boaz tso Betlehem va agble la, eye wòdo gbe na dɔwɔlawo be, “Yehowa nanɔ anyi kpli mi!” Woɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa nayra wò!”
Pea, vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻa Poasi mei Petelihema, ʻo ne pehē ki he kau tuʻusi, “Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa Sihova.” Pea naʻa nau tali ia ʻo pehē, “Ke tāpuaki koe ʻe Sihova.”
5 Boaz bia eƒe dɔwɔlawo dzi kpɔla be, “Ɖetugbi kae nye ema?”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Poasi ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki naʻe fakanofo ki he kau tuʻusi, “Ko e fefine ʻo hai eni?”
6 Dzikpɔla la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɖetugbi si tso Moabnyigba dzi va kple lɔ̃xoa, Naomi lae.
Pea leaange ʻe he tamaioʻeiki naʻe fakanofo ki he kau tuʻusi ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e fefine Moape ia naʻe haʻu mo Naomi mei he fonua ko Moape:”
7 Ebia mɔm ŋdi sia be yeafɔ nuku siwo ge le nuku bablawo me, eye esia dzi ko wòle tso ŋdi ke, fifia koe wòle ɖiɖim ɖe eme vie le vɔvɔli ma te.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, tuku au ke u tufi ʻo tānaki muimui ʻi he kau tuʻusi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ū: ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ia, pea kuo ne fai maʻuaipē ia, talu mei he pongipongi ki he feituʻulaʻā ni kuo ne afe siʻi pe ia ki he fale.”
8 Boaz gblɔ na Rut be, “Vinye, ɖo tom; mègayi ɖafɔ nuku siwo nuxalawo gblẽ ɖi la le agble bubu aɖeke me o, eye mègadzo le afi sia hã o. Lé ɖokuiwò ɖe nye dɔlanyɔnuwo ŋu.
Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe Poasi kia Lute, “ʻE hoku ʻofefine, ʻoku ʻikai te ke fanongo? ʻOua naʻa ke ʻalu ki ha ngoue kehe ke tufi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke ʻalu mei heni, ka ke nofomaʻu pe ʻo ofi ki hoku kau fefine:
9 Lé ŋku ɖe afi si ŋutsuawo le nuku xam le la ŋu, eye nàdze nye dɔlanyɔnuwo yome. Mede se na ŋutsuawo be womaɖe fu aɖeke na wò o, eye ne tsikɔ le wuwòm la, yi nàku tsi le ze siwo me ŋutsuawo ku tsi ɖo la me nàno.”
Ke ke sio pe ki he ngoue ʻoku nau tuʻusi, pea ke muimui ʻiate kinautolu: ʻikai kuo ʻosi ʻeku fekau ki he kau talavou ke ʻoua naʻa nau ala kiate koe? Pea ʻoka ke ka fieinu, ʻalu ki he ngaahi ʻaiʻanga inu ʻo inu, pea inu ʻaia kuo ʻutu ʻe he kau talavou.”
10 Nya siawo sese na Rut de ta agu, tsyɔ mo anyi, eye wògblɔ be, “Nu kae na nètsɔ ɖe le nye nya me? Nu ka ta nève amedzro aɖe nu ale ɖo?”
Pea naʻe tōmapeʻe ia ki hono mata, pea punou ia ki he kelekele, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā kuo u ʻilo ai ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, koeʻuhi ke ke fie tokanga ai kiate au, he ko e muli au?”
11 Boaz ɖo eŋu be, “Mese nu siwo katã nèwɔ na lɔ̃xowò tso esime srɔ̃a ku. Menya nu tso ale si nègblẽ fofowò, dawò kple mia de ɖi kple ale si nèva le ame siwo mènya tsã o dome la ŋu.
Pea naʻe tali ʻe Poasi ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Kuo fakahā ʻo lahi kiate au, ʻaia kotoa pē kuo ke fai ki hoʻo faʻē ʻi he fono, talu ʻae pekia ʻa ho husepāniti: pea mo hoʻo liʻaki hoʻo tamai mo hoʻo faʻē, pea mo e fonua naʻa ke tupu ai, pea kuo ke haʻu ki ha kakai naʻe ʻikai te ke tomuʻa ʻilo.
12 Yehowa naɖo nyui si nèwɔ la teƒe na wò. Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si gbɔ nèva le sitsoƒe dim le la naɖo eteƒe na wò.”
Ke totongi ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo ngāue, pea ke foaki kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae totongi lahi, ʻaia ko e kapakau ʻoʻona kuo ke haʻu ke falala ki ai.”
13 Rut ɖo eŋu be, “Akpe na wò, nye aƒetɔ. Èkpɔ nublanui nam ŋutɔ, èna nye dzi dze eme ɖe ale si nèƒo nu nam lɔlɔ̃tɔe ta, togbɔ be nyemede wò subɔla aɖeke nu o hã.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Tuku ke u ʻilo ʻae ʻofa ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoku ʻeiki; he kuo ke fakafiemālieʻi au, pea kuo tau hoʻo lea ki he loto ʻo hoʻo kaunanga, neongo ʻoku ʻikai te u hangē ha taha ʻi hoʻo kaunanga.”
14 Le ŋdɔnuɖuɣi la, Boaz yɔ Rut, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Va nàɖu nu kpli mí.” Rut nɔ dɔwɔlawo dome heɖu nu kpli wo ɖi ƒodo nyuie, eye nuɖuɖu si wonae la ƒe ɖe gasusɔ.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Poasi kiate ia, ʻI he feituʻulaʻā kai ke ke haʻu ki heni, “Pea kai ʻi he mā, pea peke hoʻo konga mā ʻi he vaimahi.” Pea naʻe nofo ofi ia ki he kau tuʻusi: pea naʻa ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae uite tunu, pea kai ʻe ia, pea mākona, pea naʻe toe.
15 Esi wògayi nukua fɔfɔ dzi la, Boaz gblɔ na nuxalawo be woana wòafɔ nukuawo le bablawo me, eye womegaxe mɔ nɛ kura o.
Pea ʻi heʻene tuʻu hake ke tufi, naʻe fekau ʻe Poasi ki heʻene kau talavou, ʻo pehē, “Tuku ia ke tufi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ū, pea ʻoua naʻa fakamā ia:
16 Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, woalũ nuku aɖewo tso nuku babla me ada ɖe eŋgɔ be wòafɔ, eye womegabia nya aɖekee o.
pea tuku ke ngangana ʻae ngaahi faluku koeʻuhi ke ne maʻu ia, pea tuku ai pe ia, koeʻuhi ke ne tufi ia, pea ʻoua naʻa valoki ia.”
17 Ale Rut fɔ nuku siwo ge ɖe agblea dzi la va se ɖe fiẽ. Emegbe la, enyɔ lu siwo wòfɔ ƒo ƒu la, eye eƒe dzidzeme anɔ lita blaeve-vɔ-eve.
Ko ia ne tufi ai ia ʻi he ngoue ko ia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi pea naʻe tuki ʻe ia ʻaia kuo ne tufi: pea ko e efa nai ʻe taha ʻoe paʻale.
18 Rut tsɔ lu la yi dua me, eye lɔ̃xoa kpɔ esi sinu wòte ŋu fɔ. Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, Rut he nuɖuɖu si wòɖu la ƒe susɔe ɖe go, eye wòtsɔe nɛ.
Pea naʻa ne toʻo hake ia, ʻo ʻalu ki he kolo: pea naʻe mamata ʻene faʻē ʻi he fono ki he meʻa naʻa ne tufi: pea ne ʻomi ia ʻo ʻatu ia kiate ia, ʻaia naʻa ne fakatoe, hili ʻene kai ʻo mākona.
19 Lɔ̃xoa biae be, “Afi ka tututue nèfɔ nuku le egbea? Afi ka nèwɔ dɔ le egbea? Woayra ŋutsu si ve nuwò alea!” Ale Rut gblɔ ame si ƒe agble me wòwɔ dɔ le la na lɔ̃xoa. Egblɔ nɛ be, “Ŋutsu si gbɔ mewɔ dɔ le egbe la ƒe ŋkɔe nye Boaz.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono kiate ia, “Naʻa ke tufi ki fē he ʻaho ni? Pea naʻa ke ngāue ki fē koe?” Ke monūʻia pe ia ʻaia naʻa ne tokangaʻi koe. Pea naʻa ne fakahā ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono ʻaia naʻa ne ngāue mo ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e tangata naʻaku ngāue ʻi ai he ʻaho ni ko Poasi hono hingoa.”
20 Naomi gblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvia be, “Yehowa neyrae! Medzudzɔ agbagbeawo kple kukuawo nu veve kpɔ o. Ŋutsu la nye míaƒe ƒometɔ ŋutɔŋutɔ, eye wònye ƒometɔ siwo wòle be woakpɔ mía dzi la dometɔ ɖeka.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi ki heʻene tama ʻi he fono, “Ke monūʻia pe ia ʻia Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai tuku ʻene fai angaʻofa ki he moʻui, pea mo e mate.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi kiate ia, “Ko e tangata kāinga ofi ia kiate kitaua, ko e tokotaha ʻo hota kāinga ʻoku ofi lahi.”
21 Rut, Moab nyɔnu la yi edzi be, “Egblɔ nam gɔ̃ hã be magava, eye manɔ nuxalawo yome kplikplikpli va se ɖe esime woawu nukuawo xaxa le agble blibo la me nu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Lute ko e fefine Moape, naʻa ne pehē foki kiate au, “Ke ke fai maʻu pe ke ofi ki heʻeku kau talavou, ke ʻoua ke ʻosi ʻeku tuʻusi ʻeku taʻu kotoa.”
22 Naomi gblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvia Rut be, “Vinyenyɔnu, anyo na wò be nànɔ eƒe nyɔnuviwo ŋu, elabena ne èyi ame bubu aɖe ƒe agble me la, ɖewohĩ woava wɔ nuvevi wò.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi kia Lute ko ʻene tama ʻi he fono, “ʻA ʻeku tama, ʻOku lelei ia, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻalu kituʻa mo ʻene kau kaunanga, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo koe ʻi ha ngoue kehe ʻe taha.”
23 Ale Rut lé eɖokui ɖe Boaz ƒe dɔlanyɔnuwo ŋu henɔ nukuwo fɔm va se ɖe esime lu kple ƒo ŋeɣi wu enu, eye wònɔ lɔ̃xoa gbɔ.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu maʻu pe ia mo e kau kaunanga ʻa Poasi, ke fai ʻene tufi ke ʻoua ke hili ʻae fetuku ʻae taʻu paʻale mo e taʻu uite: pea naʻe nofo ia mo ʻene faʻē ʻi he fono.
