< Rut 2 >
1 To, fa, Na’omi tana da dangi a gefen mijinta da iyalin Elimelek, mutum mai martaba, mai suna Bowaz.
And Naomi had a relation of her husband, a man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.
2 Sai Rut mutuniyar Mowab ta ce wa Na’omi, “Bari in tafi gonaki in yi kala raguwar hatsi a bayan duk wanda na sami tagomashi daga gare shi.” Na’omi ta ce mata, “Ki je,’yata.”
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Now let me go into the field and take up the heads of grain after him in whose eyes I may have grace. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.
3 Saboda haka ta tafi ta fara kala a gonaki a bayan masu girbi. Sai ya zamana, ta sami kanta tana aiki a gonar da take ta Bowaz, wanda yake daga dangin Elimelek.
And she went, and came and took up the heads of grain in the field after the cutters; and by chance she went into that part of the field which was the property of Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.
4 Sai ga Bowaz ya iso daga Betlehem ya gai da masu girbi, “Ubangiji yă kasance tare da ku!” Sai suka amsa, “Ubangiji yă albarkace ka!”
And Boaz came from Beth-lehem, and said to the grain-cutters, The Lord be with you. And they made answer, The Lord give you his blessing.
5 Sai Bowaz ya tambayi shugaban masu girbinsa, “Wace yarinya ce wannan?”
Then Boaz said to his servant who was in authority over the cutters, Whose girl is this?
6 Shugaban ya amsa, “Ita ce mutuniyar Mowab da ta zo daga Mowab tare da Na’omi.
And the servant who was in authority over the cutters said, It is a Moabite girl who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab;
7 Ta ce, ‘Ina roƙo a bar ni in bi bayan masu girbin in yi kala.’ Haka ta shiga cikin gonar ta kuwa yi aiki tun da safe har zuwa yanzu, sai ɗan hutun da ta yi kaɗan.”
And she said to me, Let me come into the grain-field and take up the grain after the cutters. So she came, and has been here from morning till now, without resting even for a minute.
8 Saboda haka Bowaz ya ce wa Rut, “’Yata, ki saurare ni. Kada ki tafi ki yi kala a wani gona, kada kuma ki tafi daga nan. Ki tsaya nan tare da’yan matana bayi.
Then said Boaz to Ruth, Give ear to me, my daughter: do not go to take up the grain in another field, or go away from here, but keep here by my young women:
9 Ki lura da gonar da mutanena suke girbi, ki bi su tare da’yan matana. Na riga na faɗa wa mazan kada su taɓa ke. Kuma duk sa’ad da kika ji ƙishirwa, ki tafi ki ɗebo ruwa daga tulunan da mazan suka cika.”
Keep your eyes on the field they are cutting, and go after them; have I not given orders to the young men not to put a hand on you? And when you are in need of drink go to the vessels and take of what the young men have put there.
10 Jin haka, sai ta rusuna da fuskata har ƙasa ta ce, “Me ya sa na sami irin wannan tagomashi a idanunka da har ka lura da ni, ni da nake baƙuwa?”
Then she went down on her face to the earth, and said to him, Why have I grace in your eyes, that you give attention to me, seeing I am from a strange people?
11 Bowaz ya amsa, “An faɗa mini duka game da abin kika yi domin surukarki tun mutuwar mijinki, yadda kika bar mahaifinki da mahaifiyarki da kuma ƙasarki kika zo ki yi zama da mutanen da ba ki taɓa sani ba.
And Boaz answering said to her, I have had news of everything you have done for your mother-in-law after the death of your husband; how you went away from your father and mother and the land of your birth, and came to a people who are strange to you.
12 Bari Ubangiji yă sāka maka saboda abin da ka yi. Bari Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila yă sāka maka a yalwace, a ƙarƙashin fikafikan da ka sami mafaka.”
The Lord give you a reward for what you have done, and may a full reward be given to you by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take cover.
13 Ta ce, “Bari in ci gaba da samun tagomashi a idanunka ranka yă daɗe. Ka ta’azantar da ni ka kuma yi wa baranyarka magana mai alheri ko da yake ban kai matsayi ɗaya daga cikin bayinka’yan mata ba.”
Then she said, May I have grace in your eyes, my lord, for you have given me comfort, and you have said kind words to your servant, though I am not like one of your servants.
14 A lokacin cin abinci Bowaz ya ce mata, “Zo nan. Ki ɗebo burodi ki tsoma cikin ruwan inabi.” Da ta zauna tare da masu girbin, sai ya ba ta gasasshe hatsi. Ta ci duk abin da take so har ta bar ragowa.
And at meal-time Boaz said to her, Come here, and take some of the bread, and put your bit into the wine. And she took her seat among the grain-cutters: and he gave her dry grain, and she took it, and there was more than enough for her meal.
15 Da ta tashi don tă yi kala, sai Bowaz ya yi umarni wa samarinsa cewa, “Ko ta tara daga cikin dammuna, kada ku wulaƙanta ta.
And when she got ready to take up the grain, Boaz gave his young men orders, saying, Let her take it even from among the cut grain, and say nothing to her.
16 Ku kuma riƙa zarar mata waɗansu daga dammunan don ta ɗauka, kada ku kwaɓe ta.”
And let some heads of grain be pulled out of what has been corded up, and dropped for her to take, and let no sharp word be said to her.
17 Saboda haka Rut ta yi kala a gonar har yamma. Sa’an nan ta sussuka hatsin sha’ir da ta kalata ta sami kamar efa.
So she went on getting together the heads of grain till evening; and after crushing out the seed it came to about an ephah of grain.
18 Ta ɗauka ta koma gari sai surukarta ta ga yawan abin da ta kalato. Rut kuma ta fitar da ragowar abin da ta ci bayan ta ƙoshi ta ba ta.
And she took it up and went into the town; and she let her mother-in-law see what she had got, and after taking enough for herself she gave her the rest.
19 Surukarta ta tambaye ta, “Ina kika yi kala a yau? Ina kika yi aiki? Albarka ta tabbata ga mutumin nan ta ya lura da ke!” Sai Rut ta faɗa wa surukarta game da wurin wanda ta yi ta aiki. Ta ce, “Sunan mutumin da na yi aiki da shi a yau Bowaz ne.”
And her mother-in-law said to her, Where did you take up the grain today, and where were you working? May a blessing be on him who gave such attention to you. And she gave her mother-in-law an account of where she had been working, and said, The name of the man with whom I was working today is Boaz.
20 Sai Na’omi ta ce wa surukarta, “Ubangiji yă yi masa albarka! Bai daina nuna alheri ga masu rai da matattu ba.” Ta ƙara da cewa, “Wannan mutum danginmu ne na kusa; shi ɗaya daga cikin danginmu mai fansa.”
And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, May the blessing of the Lord, who has at all times been kind to the living and to the dead, be on him. And Naomi said to her, The man is of our family, one of our near relations.
21 Sa’an nan Rut mutuniyar Mowab ta ce, “Ya ma ce mini, ‘Ki riƙa bin ma’aikatana sai sun ƙare yin girbin dukan hatsina.’”
And Ruth the Moabitess said, Truly, he said to me, Keep near my young men till all my grain is cut.
22 Na’omi ta ce wa Rut surukarta, “Zai fi miki kyau,’yata ki riƙa tafiya da’yan matansa, domin a gonar wani dabam mai yiwuwa a yi miki lahani.”
And Naomi said to Ruth, her daughter-in-law, It is better, my daughter, for you to go out with his servant-girls, so that no danger may come to you in another field.
23 Saboda haka Rut ta tsaya kusa da bayi mata na Bowaz don tă yi kala sai da girbin sha’ir da na alkama suka ƙare. Ta kuwa zauna tare da surukarta.
So she kept near the servant-girls of Boaz to take up the grain till the cutting of the early grain and the cutting of the late grain were ended; and she went on living with her mother-in-law.
