< 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.
Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there. Behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by. Boaz said to him, “Come over here, friend, and sit down!” He came over, and sat down.
2 Bowaz kuwa ya kira dattawa guda goma na garin ya ce, “Ku zauna a nan,” suka kuwa zauna.
Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, “Sit down here,” and 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.
He said to the near kinsman, “Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s.
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.”
I thought I should tell you, saying, ‘Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.” He said, “I will redeem it.”
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 the hand of Naomi, you must buy it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on 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.”
The near kinsman said, “I can’t redeem it for myself, lest I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption for yourself; for I can’t redeem it.”
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 was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man took off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbor; and this was the way of formalizing transactions in Israel.
8 Saboda haka dangin nan mai fansa ya ce wa Bowaz, “Saye shi wa kanka.” Sai ya cire takalminsa.
So the near kinsman said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” then he took off his 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.
Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses today, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, from the hand of 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, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”
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.
All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May Yahweh make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which both built the house of Israel; and treat you worthily in Ephrathah, and be 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.”
Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which Yahweh will give you by this young woman.”
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 took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and Yahweh enabled her to conceive, and she bore 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!
The women said to Naomi, “Blessed be Yahweh, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let 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.”
He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.”
16 Sai Na’omi ta ɗauki yaron, ta kwantar da shi a cinyarta ta kuma kula da shi.
Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him.
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, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, “A son is born to Naomi”. They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 Ga asalin zuriyar Ferez. Ferez shi ne mahaifin Hezron,
Now this is the history of the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron,
19 Hezron ya haifi Ram, Ram ya haifi Amminadab,
and Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab,
20 Amminadab ya haifi Nashon, Nashon ya haifi Salmon,
and Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon,
21 Salmon ya haifi Bowaz, Bowaz ya haifi Obed,
and Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed,
22 Obed ya haifi Yesse, Yesse kuwa ya haifi Dawuda.
and Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.
