Kodwa nxa ungasihlengi ungazise. Phela kakho olelungelo lokwenza lokho ngaphandle kwakho, besekulandela mina.” Yena wathi, “Ngizasihlenga.”

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.”

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.)

UBhowazi wasebika ebadaleni lakubo bonke abantu wathi, “Lamhlanje lingofakazi bokuthi sengithengile kuNawomi yonke impahla ka-Elimeleki, loKhiliyoni loMaheloni.

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!”

LoRuthe umʼMowabi, umfelokazi kaMaheloni sengimzuzile ukuba abe ngumkami, ukuze kugcinakale ibizo lomufi kanye lempahla yakhe, lokuze ibizo lakhe linganyamalali emulini loba embalini yomuzi. Lingofakazi lamhlanje!”

Abadala kanye labo bonke ababesesangweni bathi, “Singofakazi. Sengathi uThixo angenza owesifazane ozayo emzini wakho abe njengoRasheli loLeya, abayakhayo indlu ka-Israyeli bendawonye. Sengathi ungahlonitshwa e-Efrathi ube lodumo eBhethilehema.

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.”

Ngenzalo uThixo azakunika yona ngalo owesifazane, sengathi imuli yakho ingaba njengekaPherezi, uThamari ayizalela uJuda.”

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.

UBhowazi wamthatha uRuthe waba ngumkakhe. Wembatha laye, uThixo wenza wakhulelwa, wasezala indodana.

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!

Abesifazane bathi kuNawomi, “Kadunyiswe uThixo, yena ongakutshiyanga wasala ungelasihlobo esihlengayo. Sengathi angaba lodumo kulolonke elako-Israyeli!

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.”

Uzakwenza impilo yakho ibentsha, akulondoloze ebudaleni bakho. Ngoba umalukazana wakho, yena okuthandayo njalo ongcono kulamadodana ayisikhombisa, usemuphe inzalo.”
