Da koro bi, Rut, Moabni, ka kyerɛɛ Naomi se, “Ma menkɔ afuw mu na minkodi obiara a menya nʼanim anuonyam akyi nkɔboaboa atoko ase.” Na Naomi kae se, “Eye, me babea, kɔ.”

Enti Rut kɔ kodii atwafo no akyi. Na nea ɛbae ne sɛ, ohuu sɛ ɔreyɛ adwuma wɔ Boas a ɔyɛ nʼase Elimelek busuani no afuw mu.
4 Mu kiseera kye kimu Bowaazi n’atuuka okuva e Besirekemu, n’agamba abakunguzi be nti, “Mukama Katonda abeere nammwe.” Nabo ne bamuddamu nti, “Naawe Mukama Katonda akuwe omukisa.”
Bere a ɔwɔ hɔ no, Boas fi Betlehem bae. Okyiaa atwafo no se, “Awurade ne mo ntena!” Atwafo no gyee so se, “Awurade nhyira wo.”
5 Awo Bowaazi n’abuuza nampala wa bakunguzi be nti, “Omuwala ono w’ani?”
Boas bisaa ne sohwɛfo no se, “Ababaa bɛn na ɔwɔ nohɔ hɔ no?”
6 N’amuddamu nti, “Ono ye muwala Omumowaabu eyajja ne Nawomi okuva e Mowaabu.
Sohwɛfo no buae se, “Ɔyɛ ababaa bi a ofi Moab a ɔne Naomi bae.
7 Atwegayiridde alondelonde abakunguzi we bayise mu binywa, era asiibye akola okuva obw’enkya okutuusa essaawa eno, okuggyako akabanga akatono ke yawumuddemu.”
Anɔpa yi ara na obisaa me se, obetumi adi atwafo no akyi aboaboa atoko ano ana? Ɔyɛ nsiyɛfo a bere kakraa bi na ɔde homee wɔ pata no ase hɔ.”
8 Awo Bowaazi n’agamba Luusi nti, “Wuliriza, muwala ggwe. Togendanga n’olondanga mu nnimiro endala yonna, tovanga mu eno, naye obeeranga wamu nabaweereza bange abawala.
Boas kɔɔ hɔ kɔka kyerɛɛ Rut se, “Me babea tie. Wo ne yɛn ntena ha ara na boaboa atoko; nkɔ afuw foforo biara mu. Di mmea a wɔreyɛ adwuma wɔ mʼafuw yi mu no akyi pɛɛ.
9 Gendereranga ennimiro basajja bange mwe bamaze okukungula, era ogobererenga abawala. Abasajja mbalagidde obutakutawanya. Era ennyonta bw’ekulumanga, onywenga ku mazzi abasajja ge basenye.”
Hwɛ faako a wɔretwa wɔ afuw no mu na di wɔn akyi. Mabɔ mmerante no kɔkɔ sɛ wɔnnhaw wo. Na sɛ osukɔm de wo a, nom nsu a wɔakɔsaw afi abura no mu no bi.”
10 Awo Luusi bwe yawulira ebyo, n’avuunama ku ttaka, ng’agamba nti, “Ng’ondaze ekisa mu maaso go, n’onfaako nze, munnaggwanga.”
Rut butuwii, de nʼanim kyerɛɛ fam daa no ase. Na ɔkae se, “Adɛn nti na manya saa adom yi wɔ wʼani so, me a meyɛ ɔnanani yi?”
11 Naye Bowaazi n’addamu nti, “By’okoledde nnyazaala wo kasookedde balo afa, ne bwe waleka kitaawo ne nnyoko era n’abantu bo n’ojja mu nsi ey’abantu botomanyi, babintegezezza byonna.
Boas buae se, “Nea woayɛ ama wʼase efi wo kunu wu akyi nyinaa no, wɔaka akyerɛ me, sɛ wufii wʼagya ne wo na ne wo man mu na wo ne nnipa a wunnim wɔn wɔ baabiara bɛtenae no.
12 Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri gwe weeyuna wansi w’ebiwaawaatiro bye, akusasule olw’ebyo by’okoze. MukamaKatonda wa Isirayiri, oyo gwe weewagamye wansi w’ebiwawaatiro bye, akuwe empeera ennene ddala.”
Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn a woanya guankɔbea wɔ ne ntaban ase no nnom wo.”
13 Awo Luusi n’addamu nti, “Nneeyongere okulaba ekisa mu maaso go mukama wange, kubanga oyogedde ebigambo ebyekisa eri omuweereza wo era emmeeme yange ogizizza mu nteeko wadde nga sigwanira kuba omu ku baweereza bo.”
Na ɔno nso kae se, “Ma menkɔ so nnya wʼanim adom daa, me wura. Woama me awerɛkyekye na woakasa akyerɛ wʼafenaa ayamye so, me a mensɛ na memfata wo nnwumayɛfo no mu baako mpo no.”
14 Ekiseera ekyokulya bwe kyatuuka, Bowaazi n’agamba Luusi nti, “Jjangu okoze omugaati gwo mu wayini akatuuse.” Awo Luusi bwe yatuula wansi, Bowaazi n’amuwa sayiri ensiike, n’alya, n’akkuta, n’emulemera nawo.
Eduu adidibere no, Boas frɛɛ no se, “Bra ma yennidi. Wutumi de wo brodo no bɔ nsa biara a wopɛ mu.” Enti ɔne nʼawitwafo no tenaa ase na Boas maa no aduan sen sɛnea obetumi adi mpo.
15 Oluvannyuma ng’okulya kuwedde, n’agolokoka agende alonde, era Bowaazi n’alagira abaddu be nti, “Ne bw’anaalonda mu binywa temumugaana.
Bere a Rut san kɔɔ nʼadwuma so bio no, Boas ka kyerɛɛ ne mmerante no se, “Momma no mmoaboa atoko no ano mfi nʼafiafi no mu na munnsiw no kwan.
16 Wakiri, mumuleke yerondere mu miganda so temumuwuuna.”
Na munyiyi afiafi no mu de no bi nnyae mu ngu fam mma no na ɔnsesaw, na monnhaw no.”
17 Awo Luusi n’alonda mu nnimiro okutuuka akawungeezi, oluvannyuma n’awuula ne sayiri gye yali akuŋŋaanyizza, n’aweza nga kilo kkumi na ssatu.
Enti Rut sesaw atoko no wɔ hɔ da mu no nyinaa na ɔporow atoko no saa anwummere no, onyaa bɛyɛ lita aduonu abien.
18 Yonna n’agyetikka, n’agitwala mu kibuga, ne nnyazaala we n’agiraba. Era yamuleetera ne ku mmere gye yali afissizzaawo.
Ɔsoa de kɔɔ kurom, de kɔkyerɛɛ nʼase. Afei, Rut de nʼawiaduan a ogyaw no maa no.
19 Nnyazaala we yasanyuka nnyo, era n’amubuuza nti, “Wakoze mu nnimiro y’ani leero? Aweebwe omukisa oyo akukwatiddwa ekisa!” Awo Luusi n’abuulira nnyazaala we nannyini nnimiro mwe yakoze, n’erinnya ly’omwami nga ye Bowaazi.
Naomi hui no, ɔteɛɛ mu se, “Ɛdɔɔso yiye! Na ɛhe na nnɛ woboaboaa saa atoko yi nyinaa ano fi? Ɛhe na wokɔyɛɛ adwuma? Awurade nhyira nea ɔboaa wo no!” Rut kaa ɔbarima a ɔyɛɛ adwuma wɔ nʼafum no ho asɛm kyerɛɛ nʼase no, ɔtoaa so kae se, “Nea meyɛɛ adwuma wɔ nʼafum no, wɔfrɛ no Boas.”
20 Nawomi namugamba nti, “Mukama Katonda atalekanga kulaga kisa eri abalamu n’abafu, amuwe omukisa. Anti omusajja oyo muganda waffe ddala, era y’omu ku banunuzi baffe ddala.”
Naomi ka kyerɛɛ nʼase no se, “Awurade nhyira no. Ɔrekyerɛ yɛn ne wo kunu a wawu no nʼayamye. Saa ɔbarima no yɛ abusuafo a wɔbɛn yɛn pɛɛ no mu baako a ɔyɛ abusua no mu ogyefo baako.”
21 Luusi Omumowaabu n’ayongerako nti, “N’okuŋŋamba yaŋŋambye nti nkolere wamu n’abakozi be okutuusa lwe balimala eby’okukungula bye.”
Rut kae se, “Nea ɛka ho bio ne sɛ, mpo, Boas ka kyerɛɛ me se, mensan mmra na me ne nʼawitwafo no mmɛtena nkosi bere a wobewie otwa no.”
22 Awo Nawomi n’agamba Luusi muka mwana we nti, “Kijja kuba kirungi nnyo muwala wange, okubeeranga kumpi nabaweereza be abakazi, kubanga singa onoogenda mu nnimiro y’omulala akabi kayinza okukutuukako.”
Naomi teɛɛ mu se, “Anwonwasɛm ni! Yɛ nea ɔka no. Wo ne nʼadwumayɛfo no ntena nkosi sɛ wobewie otwa no. Wʼasom bedwo wo wɔ hɔ sen afuw biara mu.”
23 Awo Luusi n’abeeranga kumpi n’abaweereza ba Bowaazi ng’alonda okutuusa amakungula ga sayiri n’eŋŋaano bwe gaggwa, n’abeeranga wamu ne nnyazaala we.
