< Rut 4 >

1 Boasi'a marerino ana kumate kasante umani'ne. Anante Boasi'a keana, Rutima asmino kva huntegahie hu'nea ne' egeno, anage hu'ne, Nenfuga amare enka emanio, higeno anante emani'ne.
Then Boaz went up to the gate, and he sat there. And when he had seen the kinsman passing by, whom he had previously discussed, he spoke to him, calling him by his name, “Pause for a little while, and sit down here.” He turned aside and sat down.
2 Ana hutegeno Boasi'a 10ni'a ranra kuma kva vahe, zamare atru huno anage hu'ne, amare emaniho hige'za zamagra emani'naze.
But Boaz, calling aside ten men among the elders of the city, said to them, “Sit down here.”
3 Anante Boasi amanage huno ana nera asami'ne, Naomi'a Moabu mopareti e'neno, tagri vahe'mofo Elimeleki mopa mizante atrenaku nehige'na negasmue.
They settled down, and he spoke to the kinsman, “Naomi, who has returned from the region of the Moabites, is selling part of a field of our brother Elimelech.
4 Hige'na nagra tamage kazigati kasami fatgo hunaku nagesa nentahue. Amama mani'naza vahe'ene, ranra kva vahe'nimokizmi zamufi, kagrama miza sena aza hugahue hanunka, amne ana huo. Hagi ana osugahue hanunka, nasmige'na antahi'neno. Na'ankure kagra kagota hanke'na, nagra kagri kamage hu'noe. Ana ne'mo'a kenona huno, Nagra mizasena aza hugahue huno hu'ne.
I wanted you to hear this, and to tell you in front of everyone sitting here, including the eldest of my people. If you will take possession of it by the right of kinship, buy it and possess it. But if it displeases you, you should reveal this to me, so that I will know what I have to do. For there is no near kinsman besides you, who is before me, and I am after you.” But he answered, “I will buy the field.”
5 Higeno Boasi'a anage hu'ne, Ana mopa Naomi azampinti miza sesana zupa, Moabuti a'ma fri'nemofo kento a' Rutina nafa'aza hunenka, fri'nea ne'mofo naga zamagima erifore hananke'za, ana naga'mo'za ana mopa erigahaze.
And Boaz said to him, “When buying the field, you are likewise obliged to accept the hand of the woman Ruth, the Moabite, who was the wife of the deceased, so that you may raise up the name of your near kinsman through his posterity.”
6 Avate korama kvama huntega ne'mo'a anage hu'ne, Nagra mizase'na azahuga osu'noe. Na'ankure e'ina hanu'na nenfa'ma namige'na erisanti hare'noa zana eri haviza hugahue. E'ina hu'negu nagrama huga'zana kagra huo. Na'ankure nagra mizase'na azahuga osu'noe.
He answered, “I yield my right of kinship, for I am obliged not to cut off the posterity of my own family. You may make use of my privilege, which I freely declare I will forego.”
7 Hagi amanahu avu'avara, korapa knafi'na Israeli vahepi me'neane. Mago vahemo'ma mago'zama mizasekuro, azahukura, mago agia ano zafino mago'mofo nemia zane. Higeno amanahu antahi'zamo'a mani'zamofo kankamu erifore huno Israeli vahera aza nehia zane.
Yet it was the custom between kinsmen in this former time in Israel, that if at any time one yielded his right to another, so as to confirm his permission, the man took off his shoe and gave it to his neighbor. This was a testimony of concession in Israel.
8 Ana higeno, Rutima kegava huntega ne'mo'a, Boasinku anage hu'ne, Kagraka'a suza miza'so, nehuno aga nona zafi'ne.
And so Boaz said to his kinsman, “Take off your shoe.” And immediately he released it from his foot.
9 Anante Boasi'a ranra vaheku'ene, mika vaheku anage hu'ne, Tamagra negesage'na tamagri tamufi menina Naomi azampintira, Elimelekima, Kilioni'ma, Maloni zantamima me'neana, nagra miza segahue.
And he said to the eldest and to all the people, “You are witnesses this day, that I have taken possession of all that belonged to Elimelech and Chilion and Mahlon, and was bequeathed to Naomi.
10 Nagra ana zanke hu'na, Moaputi a' Rutina azeri nafa'a nehue, Maloni kento a'mo nagri a' mani'neno, fri'nea ne'mofo agi fanane hu'zanku zamagia erifore hanige'za ana mopare ene, vahe'afine, kuma'afinena fanane osugahie. Mika vahe'mota menina amazana tamufinti negaze,
And Ruth, the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, I have taken in marriage so as to raise up the name of the deceased in his posterity, so that his name will not be cut off from among his family and his brethren and his people. You, I say, are witnesses of this thing.”
11 huno higeno ana kumamofo kasante mani'naza vahe'ene, kumate ranra vahe'ene mika'moza hu'za, Tagra negone, Ra Anumzamo azeri so'e hanigeno nonka'afima esnia a'mo'a, Resoli'ene, Liakema, Israeli vahe kse hakare huna'a kna hugahie. Hanigenka kagra Efrati naga nofipi ra kagi erinka Betlehemia feno ne' manigahane.
All the people who were at the gate, along with the eldest, answered, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make this woman, who enters into your house, like Rachel, and Leah, who built up the house of Israel, so that she may be an example of virtue in Ephrathah, and so that her name may be honored in Bethlehem.
12 Mago'ene nagakamo'za, Peresi naga kna huza, Judanteti Tamari'ma kasente'nea ne'mofo nagapinti, Ra Anumzamo ama a'pinti mofavre zaga kamigahie.
And may your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which the Lord will give to you from this young woman.”
13 Higeno Boasi'a, Ruti a' avregeno nenaro'za higeno, anteno mase'ne. Ramo azeri knare huntegeno agra amu'ene huno ne'mofavre ksente'ne.
And so Boaz took Ruth, and received her as his wife, and he went in to her, and the Lord granted to her to conceive and bear a son.
14 Anante a'nemo'za Naominku anage hu'naze, Ra Anumzamofo agi'a erisga hanune, na'ankure meni ama knafina kzahu vahera omani'ne huno onkatre'ne. Ama mofavremo Israeli vahe motafina ragi erigahie.
And the women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the Lord, who has not permitted your family to be without a successor, and may his name be called upon in Israel.
15 Agra nomani zanka'a kzeri muse nehuno tavava'ma resankeno'a knare huno kegava hugantegahie, na'ankure neganofero'a, seveni'a ne'mofavre zaga zamagatere'no, agra avesi kantega'hie!
And now you may have someone to comfort your soul and to care for you in old age, for he is born of your daughter-in-law, who loves you, and this is much better for you, than if you had seven sons.”
16 Anante Naomi'a ana mofavre avreno, agra'a asumpi anukino kegava hu'ne.
And taking up the boy, Naomi placed him on her bosom, and she took on the duties of carrying him and nursing him.
17 Magopi nemaniza a'nemo'za, anage hu'naze, Mago ne'mofavre Naomi'na fore humie! Obeti'e hu'za agi'a antemi'naze. Obeti'a raseno Jesi ksentegeno, Jesi'a, Deviti nefaza hu'ne!
And the women of the near future were congratulating her and saying, “There was a son born to Naomi. They called his name Obed. Here is the father of Jesse, the father of David.”
18 Ama'ne e'i Peresi naga'nofimokizmi zamagi'e, Peresi'a, Hesroni ksente'ne,
These are the generations of Perez: Perez conceived Hezron,
19 Hesroni'a, Rami ksentegeno, Rami'a, Aminadabu ksente'ne.
Hezron conceived Aram, Aram conceived Amminadab,
20 Aminadabu'a, Nasoni ksentegeno, Nasoni'a, Salmoni ksente'ne.
Amminadab conceived Nahshon, Nahshon conceived Salmon,
21 Salmoni'a, Boasi ksentegeno Boasi'a, Obeti ksente'ne.
Salmon conceived Boaz, Boaz conceived Obed,
22 Obeti'a, Jesi ksentegeno, Jesi'a, Deviti ksente'ne.
Obed conceived Jesse, Jesse conceived David.
