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

Na Boas frɛɛ kuro no mu ntuanofoɔ edu sɛ wɔmmɛtena ase sɛ adansefoɔ.

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 gyefoɔ nimpɔn no sɛ, “Wonim Naomi a ɔfiri Moab baeɛ 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.”

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 sɛ, “Sɛ wotɔ asase no firi Naomi nkyɛn a, na ɛsɛ sɛ woware Moabni okunafoɔ 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 gyefoɔ nimpɔn no kaa sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ merentumi ntɔ asase no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛbɛha mʼagyapadeɛ. Tɔ asase no na merentumi ntɔ.”

Enti, abusua gyefoɔ nimpɔn no worɔɔ ne mpaboa ka kyerɛɛ Boas sɛ, “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 ntuanofoɔ no ne ɛdɔm a wɔatwa ahyia hɔ no sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ matɔ Elimelek, Kilion ne Mahlon agyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ Naomi nsam, na moyɛ ɛho adansefoɔ.

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 kunafoɔ no sɛ me yere. Ɛno enti, sɛ ɔwo ɔbabarima a, ɔbɛfa ne kunu a wawu no abusua din na wafa abusua agyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ ne kurom ha nso. Ɛnnɛ, mo nyinaa moyɛ adansefoɔ.”

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, ntuanofoɔ no ne ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa sɔre gyinaeɛ kaa sɛ, “Yɛyɛ adansefoɔ! Awurade mmoa mma ɔbaa a afei na ɔreba wo fie no nyɛ sɛ Rahel ne Lea a wɔn mu na Israel aman nyinaa firi no. Wobɛyɛ kɛse wɔ Efrata na woagye edin wɔ Betlehem.

Na Awurade mfa ababaawa yi so mma wo asefoɔ 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 fie. Afei, ɔkɔɔ ne ho na Awurade ma ɔnyinsɛnee 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 kuro no mu mmaa ka kyerɛɛ Naomi sɛ, “Animuonyam nka Awurade sɛ ɛnnɛ ɛda yi, wama woanya abusua gyefoɔ! 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 mmabaawaberɛ mu na ɔnhwɛ wo wɔ wo mmerewabɔ mu. Ɛfiri sɛ ɔyɛ wʼase a ɔdɔ wo na ɔsene mmammarima nson ma wo no babarima.”

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

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