Wasesukuma yena labomalokazana bakhe wabuyela esuka eselizweni lakoMowabi, ngoba wayesezwile elizweni lakoMowabi ukuthi iNkosi ihambele abantu bayo ngokubanika ukudla.
7 Nenofero a'trene, agrane (Naomi) nemaniza mopa atre'za vu'za Judama nevaza kante uhanati'naze.
Ngakho waphuma endaweni lapho ayekhona labomalokazana bakhe bobabili kanye laye, bahamba endleleni ukubuyela elizweni lakoJuda.
8 Anante Naomi'a tarega nenoferokiznigu anage hu'ne, Taregamotna'a kama antahi'o, antatani'amofo nontega vi'o. Fri'naza nagate'ene, nagrite'enema tanagrama ha'a avu'ava zantera, Anumzamo'a tanagrira ana huno knare avu'ava huranantesie.
UNawomi wasesithi kubomalokazana bakhe bobabili: Hambani libuyele ngulowo lalowo endlini kanina; iNkosi kayilenzele umusa njengoba lenza kwabafileyo lakimi.
9 Kasefa ve eritna nonkuma huta manisapina Anumzamo'a knare'za huno kegava huranantegahie huno neznasmino, zanagi antako nehige'za krafa hu'za zavi ate'naze.
INkosi kayilinike ukuthi lithole ukuphumula, ngulowo lalowo endlini yomkakhe. Wasebanga, basebephakamisa ilizwi labo bakhala inyembezi.
10 Hianagi zanagra anage hu'na'e. O'e, tagra kagri vahetega kagrane vugahu'e, huke asmi'na'e.
Basebesithi kuye: Isibili, sizabuyela lawe ebantwini bakini.
11 Hu'neanagi, Naomi'a kenonazni'a anage hu'ne, Kuma tani'arega etetna vi'o, mofa'nimotna'a, Judama nagranema vana'a zamofona knare kegafa omane'ne. Nagra knare osu'noanki'na, mofavrea kasentesnugeno, ana mofavremo'a nernave zana osugahie.
Kodwa uNawomi wathi: Buyelani, madodakazi ami, lizahambelani lami? Kambe ngiselamadodana esiswini sami ukuthi abe ngomkenu?
12 Kuma taniarega etetna vi'o, mofa'nimotna'a! Nagra ko tavava te'noanki'na ete'na aravea osugahue. Hagi nagrama meni kenage'ma ve eri'na mofavre zaga kasezamantegahue huasina,
Buyelani, madodakazi ami, zihambeleni, ngoba sengimdala kakhulu ukuthi ngibe lendoda. Loba ngingathi ngilethemba lokuthi lami ngalobubusuku ngibe lendoda, njalo ngizale amadodana,
13 tanagra knare zanavega ante'nesanke'ne, arave huga kantera ra hate'sino? Tanagra knare vea e'oritna ana kna'afina amnea mani'tesino? O'e, mofa'trenimotna'e, nagranena ovu tfaza hugaha'e. Na'ankure tanagrama eri'a knazana agtere'na nagra eri'noe, Ramo'a nagrira nazeri haviza hu'ne.
belingawalindela yini aze akhule? Belingazivimbela lingabi lendoda yini? Hatshi, madodakazi ami, ngoba kuyababa kakhulu kimi kulakini ukuthi isandla seNkosi siphume ukumelana lami.
14 Tusi krafa hu'za mago'ene zavira ate'naze. Anante Opa'a nenoferona azerino antako nehuno ete vu'ne. Hianagi ana huo huno huma nenteana, Ruti'a tusi'za huno Naomina agzafeno anuki hampo'na hu'ne.
Basebephakamisa ilizwi labo bakhala inyembezi futhi. UOpha wasemanga uninazala, kodwa uRuthe wanamathela kuye.
15 Naomi'a anage hu'ne, Ko, neganunkna'a, vahe'ane, anumzama'a nehirega eteno nevie. Neganunkna amage antenka kumaka'arega vuo, huno asmi'ne.
Wasesithi: Khangela, umkamfowenu usebuyele ebantwini bakibo lakubonkulunkulu bakhe; buyela umlandele umkamfowenu.
16 Hianagi Ruti'a ke'arera amanage hu'ne, Natrenka vuo hunka kagra tutura huonanto. Na'ankure, kagrama inantega vusanana, anantega nagra vugahue. Inante manisanana, nagra anante umanigahu'e. Kagri vahe'mo'za, nagri vahe manigahaze. Kagri Anumzamo'a, nagri Anumza segahie.
Kodwa uRuthe wathi: Ungangincengi ukuthi ngikutshiye, ngibuyele ngiyekele ukukulandela; ngoba lapho oya khona, ngizakuya khona, lalapho olala khona, ngizalala khona. Abantu bakho bangabantu bami, loNkulunkulu wakho unguNkulunkulu wami;
17 Inante'ma kagrama fri snantera, anante nagra frisnuge'za ase nantegahaze. Anumzamo'a nagrira tusi'a kna namigahie, nagrama nehua kema amage'ma osnugeno'a, magoke'zana fri'zamoke tazeri pasegahie.
lapho ozafela khona, ngizafela khona, ngingcwatshelwe lapho. INkosi kayenze njalo kimi ngokunjalo yengezelele, ngoba yikufa kuphela okuzakwehlukanisa phakathi kwami lawe.
18 Naomi'ma kegeno Ruti'ma hampo'natino agrane vugahue'ma higeno'a, tutu'ma huno'ma huma nenteretira anante atre'ne.
Kwathi esebonile ukuthi uzimisele ukuhamba laye waseyekela ukukhuluma kuye.
19 Higeke ana tarega'moke vuvava hu'ne Betlehem uhanatina'e. Betlehemi ufrake'za, ana kumapi miko vahe'mo'za uma hnatina'a zankura tusi muse hu'naze. Ana nehu'za kumate a'ne zagamo'za anage hu'naze, Ama ara Naomio?
Basebehamba bobabili baze bafika eBhethelehema. Kwasekusithi sebefikile eBhethelehema umuzi wonke wayaluzela ngenxa yabo, bathi: Lo nguNawomi yini?
20 Hianagi, Naomi'a ke nonazmi huno, Naomi'e (knaremo'e) hutma nagia ohetma, Mara'e (aka he'ne) huta nagia aheho, na'ankure Miko'zante Kva Hu'nea Hanave Anumzamo (Sovren) knare'zana huonante'ne.
Wasesithi kibo: Lingangibizi ngokuthi Nawomi, lingibize ngokuthi Mara; ngoba uSomandla ungiphethe ngokubaba okukhulu.
21 Amareti'ma atre'na vu'noana maka'zampina avite'na vu'noe, hianagi Ramo'a nazampi omane kno eteno navareno e'ne. Na'a higetma Naomi'e huta nagia nehaze, negazo Ramo'ma nagri'ma ha'ma renenanteno, Miko'zante Kva Hu'nea Hanave Anumzamo (Sovren) nagri'ma nasuzane, natazama nenamiana?
Mina ngasuka ngigcwele, njalo iNkosi ingibuyise ngingelalutho. Lingibizelani ngokuthi Nawomi lokhu iNkosi ifakaze imelane lami, loSomandla ungihluphile?
22 E'ina higeno, Naomi'a nenofero Moabuti a' Ruti'e. Moabuti'ma Betlehemima ehanati na'ana, bali hoza agafa hu'za traga nehaza knafi e'na'e.
Wabuyela ngokunjalo uNawomi loRuthe umMowabikazi umalokazana wakhe kanye laye, owabuyela evela elizweni lakoMowabi. Bona-ke bafika eBhethelehema ekuqaliseni kwesivuno sebhali.
