Boas kɔɔ kurow no pon ano kɔtenaa ase wɔ hɔ. Bere a obusuani gyefo titiriw a ɔkaa ne ho asɛm no baa hɔ no, Boas frɛɛ no kae se, “Mʼadamfo, mesrɛ wo bra na mepɛ sɛ me ne wo twetwe nkɔmmɔ.” Enti wɔtenaa ase.

2 Bowaazi n’ayita n’abasajja kkumi ku bakadde b’ekibuga ne bajja ne batuula awo.

Na Boas frɛɛ kurow no mu ntuanofo du sɛ wɔmmɛtena ase sɛ nnansefo.

3 N’alyoka agamba muganda we nti, “Nawomi, eyakomyewo okuva mu Mowaabu, atunda ekibanja ekyali ekya muganda waffe omugenzi Erimereki.

Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ obusuani gyefo titiriw no se, “Wunim Naomi a ofi Moab bae no. Ɔretɔn asase a na ɛyɛ yɛn busuani Elimelek dea no.

4 Ndowoozezza nti nkutegeeze ku nsonga eyo, ekibanja ekyo okigulire mu maaso g’abakadde baffe. Bw’oba ng’oyagala okukinunula kinunule. Naye bw’oba nga toyagala, ntegeeza nkimanye. Tewali mulala alina buyinza kukinunula wabula ggwe, ate nga nze nkuddirira mu lunyiriri lwaffe.” Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Nzija kukinunula.”

Misusuw sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ, me ne wo di ho nkɔmmɔ na sɛ wopɛ a, woagye. Sɛ wopɛ asase no a, tɔ no ha yi ara wɔ saa nnansefo yi anim. Na sɛ wompɛ nso a, ma mente no mprempren ara, efisɛ sɛ woantumi annye a, me ne onipa a midi wʼakyi wɔ abusua no mu a ɛsɛ sɛ migye.” Na ɔbarima no buae se, “Megye.”

5 Awo Bowaazi n’amugamba nti, “Olunaku lw’oligula ekibanja ekyo ku Nawomi, ne Luusi Omumowaabu, nnamwandu naye olimutwala, erinnya lye yafa n’olikuuma n’ebintu bye n’obirabirira.”

Afei, Boas ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛ wotɔ asase no fi Naomi nkyɛn a, na ɛsɛ sɛ woware Moabni okunafo Rut no. Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbɛwo mma a ne kunu din bɛda wɔn so na asase no bɛtena abusua no mu.”

6 Amangwago, omusajja n’addamu nti, “Nze sisobola kukinunula kubanga nnyinza okwonoona obusika bwange. Noolwekyo gwe kinunule.”

Ɛhɔ ara na abusua mu gyefo titiriw no kae se, “Ɛno de, merentumi ntɔ asase no, efisɛ ɛbɛhaw mʼankasa mʼagyapade. Tɔ asase no na merentumi ntɔ.”

7 (Edda mu Isirayiri, empisa ey’okununula n’okuwaanyisa, yali nga bw’eti: omuntu omu yaggyangamu engatto ye, n’agiwa munne. Eno ye yali ng’enkola entuufu mu Isirayiri).

8 Awo omusajja n’agamba nti, “Kyegulire.” Amangwago Bowaazi n’aggyamu engatto ye.

Enti abusua gyefo titiriw no worɔw ne mpaboa ka kyerɛɛ Boas se, “Wo ara tɔ asase no.”

9 Bowaazi n’alangirira eri abakadde n’abantu bonna nti, “Olwa leero, nguze ku Nawomi ebintu byonna ebya Erimereki, n’ebya Kiriyoni n’ebya Maloni, era mmwe muli bajulirwa.

Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ ɔman no ntuanofo no ne dɔm a wɔatwa ahyia hɔ no se, “Nnɛ matɔ Elimelek, Kilion ne Mahlon agyapade a ɛwɔ Naomi nsam, na moyɛ ɛho nnansefo.

10 Era ne Luusi Omumowaabu, nnamwandu wa Maloni, naye mututte okuba mukazi wange, okusobola okukuuma erinnya ly’omugenzi Erimereki n’ebintu bye, erinnya lye lireme okufiira awo ate n’okugibwa ne ligibwa mu bitabo bye byafaayo eby’ekibuga. Mmwe bajulirwa!”

Menam asase no tɔ so afa Rut a ɔyɛ Moabni a ɔyɛ Mahlon kunafo no sɛ me yere. Ne saa nti, sɛ ɔwo ɔbabarima a, ɔbɛfa ne kunu a wawu no abusua din na wafa abusua agyapade a ɛwɔ ne kurom ha nso. Nnɛ, mo nyinaa moyɛ nnansefo.”

11 Awo abakadde n’abantu bonna abaali ku wankaaki ne boogera nti, “Tuli bajulirwa. Mukama Katonda amufaananye nga Laakeeri ne Leeya, abaazimbira awamu ennyumba ya Isirayiri. Naawe Bowaazi oyale mu Efulasi, era oyatiikirire mu Besirekemu,

Afei, ntuanofo no ne ɔmanfo no nyinaa sɔre gyina kae se, “Yɛyɛ nnansefo! Awurade mmoa mma ɔbea a afei na ɔreba wo fi no nyɛ sɛ Rahel ne Lea a wɔn mu na Israel aman nyinaa fi no. Wobɛyɛ ɔkɛse wɔ Efrata na woagye din wɔ Betlehem.

12 era n’ezzadde Mukama Katonda ly’anaakuwa mu mukazi oyo, libeere ng’ennyumba ya Pereezi, Tamali gwe yazaalira Yuda.”

Na Awurade mfa ababaa yi so mma wo asefo a wɔbɛyɛ sɛ yɛn agya Peres a ɔyɛ Tamar ne Yuda babarima no.”

13 Awo Bowaazi n’awasa Luusi okuba mukazi we, n’ayingira gy’ali, n’aba olubuto, Mukama Katonda n’amusobozesa okuzaala omwana owoobulenzi.

Enti Boas waree Rut de no kɔɔ ne fi. Afei, ɔkɔɔ ne ho na Awurade ma onyinsɛnee na ɔwoo ɔbabarima.

14 Abakyala ne bagamba Nawomi nti, “Mukama Katonda yeebazibwe, oyo atakulese nga tolina mununuzi olunaku lwa leero. Era erinnya ly’omwana lyatiikirire mu Isirayiri yonna!

Na kurow no mu mmea ka kyerɛɛ Naomi se, “Anuonyam nka Awurade sɛ nnɛ da yi, wama woanya abusua gyefo! Ɔmmɛyɛ okunini wɔ Israel.

15 Kubanga muka mwana wo akwagala, alizza obuggya obulamu bwo n’akuwanirira mu bukadde bwo; era akusingira abaana omusanvu, be yandizadde.”

Akokoaa yi mma wo nsi wo mmabaabere mu na ɔnhwɛ wo wɔ wo mmerewabɔ mu. Efisɛ ɔyɛ wʼase a ɔdɔ wo na ɔsen mmabarima ason ma wo no babarima.”

16 Awo Nawomi n’atwala omwana, n’amuwambaatira mu kifuba kye, n’amulabirira.

Na Naomi faa akokoaa no, na ɔhwɛɛ no te sɛ ɔno ankasa yafunu ba.

17 Abakyala ab’oku muliraano ne bagamba nti, “Ewa Nawomi ezaaliddwayo omwana.” Ne bamutuuma erinnya Obedi, oyo ye kitaawe wa Yese, era jjajja wa Dawudi.

Na mmea a wɔne no bɔ ofipam no kae se, “Afei de Naomi anya ɔbabarima bio.” Na wɔtoo no din Obed. Ɔno na ɔbɛyɛɛ Yisai agya ne Dawid nena.
