Rut 4
1 Ya mere, Boaz pụrụ gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo ahụ, nọdụ ala nʼebe ahụ. Ọ dịghị anya onye mgbapụta ahụ dị nso nke Boaz kwuru okwu banyere ya si nʼebe ahụ na-agafe. Boaz kpọrọ ya sị, “Enyi m bịa nọdụ ala.” Ọ bịara nọdụ ala.
Then went Boaz vp to the gate, and sate there, and beholde, the kinsman, of whome Boaz had spoken, came by: and he sayd, Ho, snch one, come, sit downe here. And he turned, and sate downe.
2 Boaz kpọrọ mmadụ iri, ndị bụ ndị okenye obodo ahụ, gwa ha, “Nọdụnụ ala nʼebe a.” Ha mere otu ahụ.
Then he tooke ten men of the Elders of the citie, and sayd, Sit ye downe here. And they sate downe.
3 Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara nwoke onye mgbapụta ahụ dị nso sị, “Naomi, onye si nʼala ndị Moab lọta, na-achọ ire ala nwanna anyị nwoke Elimelek.
And he said vnto ye kinsman, Naomi, that is come againe out of ye countrey of Moab, wil sell a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelechs.
4 Ahụrụ m na o kwesiri ka m buru ụzọ gwa gị ka ị zụọ ya nʼihu ndị a nọ ọdụ nʼebe a, na nʼihu ndị okenye obodo anyị. Ọ bụrụ na ị ga-agbara ya, gwa m, ọ bụrụkwanụ na ị gaghị agbara ya, gwa m, ka m mara ihe m ga-eme. Nʼihi na ọ bụ gị ka ọ dịrị ịgbapụta ya. Mụ onwe m na-esote gị.” Ọ zara sị, “Aga m agbapụta ya.”
And I thought to aduertise thee, saying, Buy it before the assistants, and before the Elders of my people. If thou wilt redeeme it, redeeme it: but if thou wilt not redeeme it, tel me: for I know that there is none besides thee to redeeme it, and I am after thee. Then he answered, I wil redeeme it.
5 Mgbe ahụ, Boaz sịrị, “Nʼụbọchị ị ga-azụrụ ala ahụ site nʼaka Naomi ka ị ga-enwetakwa Rut onye Moab bụ nwunye onye ahụ nwụrụ anwụ, ime ka aha onye ahụ nwụrụ anwụ na ihe nketa ya na-adịgide.”
Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou mnst also buy it of Ruth the Moabitesse the wife of the dead, to stirre vp the name of the dead, vpon his inheritance.
6 Na nke a, onye nchekwa mgbapụta ahụ sịrị, “Apụghị m ịgbapụta ya nʼihi na e nwere m ike itinye ihe nketa m na nsogbu. Gị onwe gị gbapụta ya. Nke a agaghị ekwe m omume.”
And the kinsman answered, I can not redeeme it, lest I destroy mine owne inheritance: redeeme my right to thee, for I can not redeeme it.
7 Na mgbe ochie nʼala Izrel, ime ka mgbapụta ihe na iwefe ihe site nʼaka baa nʼaka zuo oke, otu onye ga-eyipụ akpụkpọụkwụ ya were ya nye onye nke ọzọ. Otu a ka e si ekpebi okwu gbasara orire na ọzụzụ, na-ime ka ihe ndị ọzọ guzosie ike nʼala Izrel.
Now this was the maner beforetime in Israel, concerning redeeming and changing, for to stablish all things: a man did plucke off his shooe, and gaue it his neighbour, and this was a sure witnes in Israel.
8 Nʼihi ya, mgbe nwoke ahụ gwara Boaz sị ya, “Zụrụ ala ahụ nʼonwe gị,” o yipụtara akpụkpọụkwụ ya.
Therefore the kinsman sayd to Boas, Buy it for thee: and he drew off his shooe.
9 Mgbe ahụ, Boaz kwupụtara na ntị ndị okenye ndị ahụ na ndị mmadụ nọ nʼebe ahụ sị ha, “Unu bụ ndị akaebe na esitela m nʼaka Naomi zụrụ ala niile Elimelek, na Kilịọn na Mahlọn nwere.
And Boaz sayd vnto the Elders and vnto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I haue bought all that was Elimelechs, and all that was Chilions and Mahlons, of the hand of Naomi.
10 Azụrụkwala m Rut onye Moab, nwunye Mahlọn ka ọ bụrụ nwunye m, ime ka aha onye nwụrụ anwụ na ihe nketa ya na-adịgide, ka aha ha hapụ ifu nʼetiti ndị ikwu ya maọbụ site nʼobodo ebe amụrụ ya. Taa unu niile bụ ndị akaebe m.”
And moreouer, Ruth the Moabitesse the wife of Mahlon, haue I bought to be my wife, to stirre vp the name of the dead vpon his inheritance, and that the name of the dead be not put out from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.
11 Mgbe ahụ, ndị okenye na ndị niile nọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama kwuru sị, “Anyị bụ ndị akaebe. Ka Onyenwe anyị mee nwanyị a na-abata nʼezinaụlọ gị ka ọ dịrị ka Rechel na Lịa, ndị ebo Izrel niile sitere na ha pụta! Ka ị bụrụkwa ọgaranya nʼagbụrụ Efrata, ghọọkwa onye a ma ama na Betlehem.
And all the people that were in the gate, and the Elders sayd, We are witnesses: the Lord make the wife that commeth into thine house, like Rahel and like Leah, which twaine did build the house of Israel: and that thou mayest doe worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Beth-lehem,
12 Site nʼụmụ Onyenwe anyị ga-enye gị site na nwanyị a, ka ezinaụlọ gị dịrị ka nke Perez onye Tama mụụrụ Juda.”
And that thine house be like the house of Pharez (whom Thamar bare vnto Iudah) of the seede which the Lord shall giue thee of this yong woman.
13 Boaz kpọọrọ Rut ka ọ bụrụ nwunye ya. Mgbe ya na Rut dinakọrọ, Onyenwe anyị nyeere ya aka ịtụrụ ime. Ọ mụkwara nwa nwoke.
So Boaz tooke Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in vnto her, the Lord gaue that she conceiued, and bare a sonne.
14 Mgbe ahụ, ndị inyom obodo ahụ bịakwutere Naomi sị ya, “Onye a gọziri agọzi ka Onyenwe anyị bụ, onye na-agbawaghị gị aka onye agbụrụ mgbapụta dị nso. Ka aha ya bụrụ ihe ga-ada ụda nʼala Izrel niile.
And the women sayd vnto Naomi, Blessed be the Lord, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, and his name shalbe continued in Israel.
15 Ya wetakwara gị ntute na ndụ gị ma bụrụkwa onye ga-azụ gị nʼisi awọ gị. Nʼihi na nwunye nwa gị, onye hụrụ gị nʼanya, onye baara gị uru karịa ndị ikom asaa, amụọrala gị nwa nwoke.”
And this shall bring thy life againe, and cherish thine olde age: for thy daughter in lawe which loueth thee, hath borne vnto him, and she is better to thee then seuen sonnes.
16 Naomi kuuru nwantakịrị ahụ, jikụọ ya nʼapata ya, lekọtaa ya.
And Naomi tooke the childe, and layde it in her lap, and became nource vnto it.
17 Ndị inyom ndị agbataobi ya sịrị, “Ugbu a, nʼikpeazụ, Naomi enwetala nwa nwoke ọzọ!” Ha gụrụ ya Obed. Ọ bụkwa onye ahụ bụ nna Jesi, onye bụ nna Devid.
And the women her neighbours gaue it a name, saying, There is a childe borne to Naomi, and called the name thereof Obed: the same was the father of Ishai, the father of Dauid.
18 Nke a bụ usoro ndị a mụrụ site na Perez. Perez mụrụ Hezrọn
These now are ye generations of Pharez: Pharez begate Hezron,
19 Hezrọn mụrụ Ram Ram mụrụ Aminadab
And Hezron begate Ram, and Ram begate Amminadab,
20 Aminadab mụrụ Nashọn Nashọn mụrụ Salmọn
And Amminadab begate Nahshon, and Nahshon begate Salmah,
21 Salmọn mụrụ Boaz Boaz mụrụ Obed
And Salmon begate Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
22 Obed mụrụ Jesi Jesi mụrụ Devid.
And Obed begate Ishai, and Ishai begate Dauid.
