< Ruthu 3 >

1 Mũthenya ũmwe-rĩ, Naomi, nyaciarawe wa Ruthu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ wakwa, githĩ ndiagĩrĩirwo ngũcarĩrie mũciĩ waku, kũrĩa wee ũngĩona maũndũ mega?
Pea pehē ʻe Naomi ko ʻene faʻē ʻi he fono kiate ia, “ʻA ʻeku tama, ʻikai ʻoku lelei ʻeku kumi ʻae fiemālie kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke lelei ai kiate koe?
2 Githĩ Boazu ũcio wee ũkoretwo na ndungata ciake cia airĩtu ti mũndũ wa rũrĩra rwitũ? Ũtukũ ũyũ nĩguo ekũhuha cairi kĩhuhĩro-inĩ.
Pea ko eni, ʻikai ko hota kāinga ʻa Poasi, ʻae kau kaunanga ʻoʻona naʻa ke ʻi ai? Vakai, ʻoku tapili paʻale ʻe ia he poōni ʻi he potu hahaʻanga.
3 Wĩthambe na wĩhake maguta mekũnunga wega, ningĩ wĩhumbe nguo ciaku iria njega mũno. Ũcooke ũikũrũke ũkinye kĩhuhĩro-inĩ, no ndũkeyonithie mũndũ ũcio nginya arĩkie kũrĩa na kũnyua.
Ko ia ke ke kaukauʻi koe, pea ke tākai koe, pea ʻai ho ngaahi kofu kiate koe, pea ke ʻalu hifo ki he potu hahaʻanga: kaeʻoua naʻa ke fakahā atu koe ki he tangata, kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻene kai mo inu.
4 Rĩrĩa arĩkoma, wone harĩa akoma. Ningĩ ũthiĩ ho na ũhumbũrie magũrũ make, ũkome ho. Nake nĩegũkwĩra ũrĩa wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka.”
Pea ka tokoto hifo ia, pea ʻe pehē, Ke ke vakai ki he potu ʻaia ʻoku tokoto ai ia, pea ke ʻalu ki ai, pea toʻo ʻae kafu mei hono vaʻe, pea ke tokoto hifo; pea ʻe fakahā ʻe ia kiate koe ʻaia te ke fai.”
5 Ruthu akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ macio mothe wanjĩĩra no mo ngwĩka.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke tala kiate au te u fai ia.”
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩikũrũka agĩkinya kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩu, na agĩĩka ũrĩa wothe nyaciarawe aamwĩrĩte eeke.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia ki he potu hahaʻanga, pea ne fai ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono kiate ia.
7 Na rĩrĩa Boazu aarĩkirie kũrĩa na kũnyua, na agĩkorwo arĩ mũkenu, agĩthiĩ agĩkoma mũthia-inĩ biũ wa hĩba ya cairi. Nake Ruthu agĩthiĩ acemete, akĩmũhumbũria magũrũ, agĩkoma ho.
Pea hili ʻae kai mo inu ʻa Poasi, pea kuo fiemālie lahi hono loto, naʻe ʻalu ia ke tokoto ʻi hono potu ʻoe fokotuʻunga uite: pea haʻu fakaʻeteʻete pe ia, pea toʻo ʻae kafu mei hono vaʻe, pea tokoto hifo ia,
8 Ũtukũ gatagatĩ, kĩndũ gĩkĩhahũra Boazu, nake egarũra, agĩkora nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja wakomete magũrũ-inĩ make.
Pea hoko ʻo tuʻuapō, pea pehē, Kuo manavahē ʻae tangata, pea tafoki ʻe ia ia, pea vakai, ʻoku tokoto ha fefine ki hono vaʻe.
9 Akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩwe ũ?” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ ndungata yaku Ruthu. Tambũrũkia gĩcurĩ kĩa nguo yaku ũũhumbĩre, nĩ ũndũ wee nĩwe ũngĩtũmenyerera.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hai koe?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au Lute ko hoʻo kaunanga ko ia ke ke ʻai ho kafu ki hoʻo kaunanga he ko e kāinga ofi koe.”
10 Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova arokũrathima mwarĩ wakwa. Ũtugi ũrĩa wonania nĩũkĩrĩte ũrĩa wonanirie kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ, nĩ ũndũ ndũnenda kũrũmanĩrĩra na aanake, marĩ athĩĩni kana marĩ itonga.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻE hoku ʻofefine, Ke monūʻia koe ʻia Sihova: he kuo ke fakahā ʻae angaʻofa lahi ʻi he kimui ʻi he kamataʻanga, ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai te ke muimui ʻi he kau talavou, pē ko ha masiva pē ko e maʻumeʻa.
11 Na rĩrĩ, mwarĩ wakwa, ndũgetigĩre. Nĩngũgwĩkĩra ũrĩa wothe ũkũũhooya. Andũ othe a itũũra rĩĩrĩ riitũ nĩmooĩ atĩ wee ũrĩ mũndũ-wa-nja ngatha.
Pea ko eni, ʻE hoku ʻofefine, ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē; te u fai kiate koe ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ke tokanga ki ai: he ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻo hoku matapā ko e fefine angalelei koe.
12 O na gũtuĩka ndĩ ũmwe wa arĩa mangĩkũmenyerera-rĩ, nĩ harĩ mũndũ ũngĩ ũngĩkũmenyerera wa hakuhĩ kũngĩra.
Pea ko eni, ko e moʻoni ko ho kāinga ofi au: ka ʻoku ai ha kāinga ʻe taha ʻoku ofi lahi ʻiate au.
13 Rĩu kĩraare haha ũtukũ ũyũ, na rũciinĩ gwakĩa angĩkorwo nĩekwenda gũkũmenyerera, nĩ wega; nĩagakũmenyerera. No angĩkorwo ndekwenda, o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, nĩngakũmenyerera. Kĩraare haha nginya rũciũ rũciinĩ.”
Tatali he poōni, pea ʻe pehē ʻi he ʻapongipongi, kapau te ne fai kiate koe ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga, ʻoku lelei; tuku ia ke fai ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai fai ʻe ia ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga kiate koe, pea te u fai ʻeau ʻae ngāue ʻae kāinga kiate koe; ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova: tokoto hifo ke ʻoua ke pongipongi.”
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ruthu agĩkoma hau magũrũ-inĩ make nginya rũciinĩ, no akĩroka gũũkĩra rũciinĩ tene kũrĩ mairia, nake Boazu akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkareke kũmenyeke atĩ nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ-wa-nja ũrokĩte kĩhuhĩro-inĩ.”
Pea naʻe tokoto ia ki hono vaʻe ke ʻoua ke pongipongi: pea tuʻu hake ia ʻi he taʻefaʻaʻilo ʻe ha taha ha taha. Pea pehē ʻe ia, Ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo naʻe haʻu ha fefine ki he potu hahaʻanga.
15 Ningĩ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rehe nguo ĩyo wĩigĩrĩire wanĩrĩrie.” Rĩrĩa eekire ũguo, Boazu agĩitĩrĩra ibaba ithathatũ cia cairi, akĩmũigĩrĩra. Nake Ruthu agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ.
Pea pehē ʻe ia foki, “ʻOmi kiate au ʻa ho kafu ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate koe, pea ke fakatali ia.” Pea ʻi heʻene fakatali ia, naʻa ne lingi ki ai ʻae fua paʻale ʻe ono, ʻo ne hilifaki ia kiate ia: pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki he kolo.
16 Na rĩrĩa Ruthu aacookire kũrĩ nyaciarawe-rĩ, Naomi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ wakwa, kũraathiire atĩa?” Nake akĩmwĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe Boazu aamwĩkĩire.
Pea ʻi heʻene haʻu ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hai koe, ʻeku tama? Pea naʻa ne tala kiate ia ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe he tangata kiate ia.”
17 Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ibaba ici ithathatũ cia cairi nĩwe ũũheire, na anjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Tiga kũinũkĩra nyaciaraguo moko matheri.’”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, naʻa ne tuku kiate au ʻae fua paʻale ʻe ono ni; he naʻa ne pehē kiate au, ʻoua naʻa ke ʻalu ngeʻesi pē ki hoʻo faʻē ʻi he fono.
18 Nake Naomi akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Eterera o ro ũguo, mwarĩ wakwa, nginya ũmenye ũrĩa ũhoro ũcio ũgũthiĩ, nĩgũkorwo mũndũ ũcio ndangĩhurũka nginya rĩrĩa aniine ũhoro ũcio ũmũthĩ.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko ʻeku tama, ke ke nofo fiemālie pē, ke ʻoua ke ke ʻilo pe ngata fēfē ʻae meʻa ni: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai nofo noa pē ʻae tangata, kaeʻoua ke ne fakaʻosi ʻae meʻa ni he ʻaho ni.”
