Rut 4
1 Ana cikin haka Bowaz ya haura zuwa ƙofar gari ya tafi ya zauna a can. Sa’ad da dangi mai fansan da ya yi zance ya iso, Bowaz ya ce, “Zo nan abokina ka zauna.” Saboda haka ya ratso ya zauna.
Then Boaz went up to the gate and sat down. Just then the near kinsman of whom Boaz had spoken came along. Boaz said, “Hello, So-and-so (calling him by name), come here and sit down.” So he stopped and sat down.
2 Bowaz kuwa ya kira dattawa guda goma na garin ya ce, “Ku zauna a nan,” suka kuwa zauna.
Boaz also took ten of the town elders and said, “Sit down here.” So they sat down.
3 Sa’an nan ya ce wa dangin nan mai fansa, “Na’omi, wadda ta dawo daga Mowab, tana so ta sayar da filin da yake na ɗan’uwanmu Elimelek.
Then he said to the near relative, “Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is offering for sale the piece of land which belonged to our relative Elimelech,
4 Na ga ya kamata in jawo hankalinka ga batun in kuma ba da shawara ka saye shi a gaban waɗannan da suke zazzaune a nan da kuma a gaban dattawan jama’a. In kana so ka fanshe shi, to, sai ka yi. Amma in ba za ka yi ba, sai ka faɗa mini, don in sani. Gama babu wani mai izinin yin haka sai kai, ni ne kuwa na biye.” Sai ya ce, “Zan fansa.”
and I thought that I would lay the matter before you, suggesting that you buy it in the presence of these men who sit here and of the elders of my people. If you will buy it and so keep it in the possession of the family, do so; but if not; then tell me, so that I may know; for no one but you has the right to buy it, and I am next to you.” “I will buy it,” he said.
5 Sa’an nan Bowaz ya ce, “A ranar da ka saya filin daga Na’omi da kuma daga Rut mutuniyar Mowab, ka sayi gwauruwar marigayin nan, domin ka riƙe sunan marigayin da kuma kayansa.”
Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the field from Naomi, you must also marry Ruth the Moabite, the widow of the dead, in order to preserve the name of the dead in connection with his inheritance.”
6 Da jin haka, sai dangin nan mai fansa ya ce, “To, ba zan iya fanshe shi ba don kada in yi wa nawa mallakar rauni. Za ka iya fanshe shi wa kanka. Ni dai ba zan iya ba.”
“I cannot buy it for myself without spoiling my own inheritance,” the near relative said. “You take my right of buying it as a relative, because I cannot do so.”
7 (To, a kwanakin can a Isra’ila, domin a tabbatar da fansa da kuma musayar da mallaka, mutum zai cire takalminsa ya ba wa ɗayan. Wannan ita ce hanyar tabbatar da al’amarin a hukumance a cikin Isra’ila.)
Now this used to be the custom in Israel: to make valid anything relating to a matter of redemption or exchange, a man drew off his sandal and gave it to the other man; and this was the way contracts were attested in Israel.
8 Saboda haka dangin nan mai fansa ya ce wa Bowaz, “Saye shi wa kanka.” Sai ya cire takalminsa.
So when the near relative said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” Boaz drew off the man’s sandal.
9 Sa’an nan Bowaz ya yi shela wa dattawa da kuma dukan mutane, “A yau ku ne shaidu cewa na saya daga Na’omi dukan mallakar Elimelek, Kiliyon da kuma Malon.
Then Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses at this time that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s from Naomi.
10 Na kuma ɗauki Rut mutuniyar Mowab, gwauruwar Malon a matsayin matata domin sunan mamaci da kuma mallakarsa yă ci gaba, domin kada sunansa yă ɓace daga cikin iyali ko daga tarihin gari. A yau ku ne shaidu!”
Moreover I have secured Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, to be my wife, in order to perpetuate the name of the dead in connection with his inheritance, so that his name will not disappear from among his relatives and from the household where he lived. You are witnesses this day.”
11 Sai dattawan da kuma dukan waɗanda suke a ƙofar suka ce, “Mu shaidu ne. Bari Ubangiji yă sa macen da take zuwa cikin gidanka ta zama kamar Rahila da Liyatu, waɗanda tare suka gina gidan Isra’ila. Bari ka sami martaba a cikin Efrata ka kuma zama sananne cikin Betlehem.
Then all the people who were at the gate and the elders said, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your house like Rachel and Leah, who together built the house of Israel. May you do well in Ephrata, and become famous in Bethlehem.
12 Ta wurin’ya’yan da Ubangiji zai ba ka ta wurin wannan mace, bari iyalinka yă zama kamar na Ferez, wanda Tamar ta haifa wa Yahuda.”
From the children whom the Lord will give you by this young woman may your household become like the household of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah.”
13 Sai Bowaz ya ɗauki Rut ta kuwa zama matarsa. Sa’an nan ya kwana da ita, Ubangiji kuma ya sa ta yi ciki, ta haifi ɗa.
So Boaz married Ruth, and she became his wife; and the Lord gave to her a son.
14 Mata suka ce wa Na’omi, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, wanda a wannan rana bai bar ki ba tare da dangi mai fansa ba. Allah yă sa yă zama sananne a dukan Isra’ila!
Then the women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the Lord who has not left you at this time without a near relative, and may his name be famous in Israel.
15 Zai sabunta rayuwarki yă adana ki a tsufanki. Gama surukarki wadda take ƙaunarki wadda kuma take mafi kyau gare ki fiye da’ya’ya maza bakwai, ta haife shi.”
This child will restore your vigor and nourish you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law who loves you, who is worth more to you than seven sons, has borne a son to Boaz!”
16 Sai Na’omi ta ɗauki yaron, ta kwantar da shi a cinyarta ta kuma kula da shi.
So Naomi took the child in her arms and cared for him as if he was her own.
17 Matan da suke zama a wurin suka ce, “Na’omi ta sami yaro.” Suka kuwa ba shi suna Obed. Shi ne ya haifi Yesse, mahaifin Dawuda.
The women of the neighborhood gave him a name, saying, “A son is born to Naomi!” They named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse, who was the father of David.
18 Ga asalin zuriyar Ferez. Ferez shi ne mahaifin Hezron,
This is the genealogy of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,
19 Hezron ya haifi Ram, Ram ya haifi Amminadab,
Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab,
20 Amminadab ya haifi Nashon, Nashon ya haifi Salmon,
Amminidab of Nashon, Nashon of Salmon,
21 Salmon ya haifi Bowaz, Bowaz ya haifi Obed,
Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed,
22 Obed ya haifi Yesse, Yesse kuwa ya haifi Dawuda.
Obed of Jesse, Jesse of David.
