Rota 4
1 Ie amy zay, nionjom-ban-dalambey mb’eo t’i Boaze le niambesatse vaho inge niary eo i longo-mpijebañe nisaontsie’ i Boazey, le hoe re tama’e, O, koahe! miviha, miambesara etoa. Aa le nivike mb’eo re niambesatse.
Now Boaz went up to the gate, and sat down there. And, behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by, to whom he said, Such man, stay, turn aside. Sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.
2 Nedre’e amy zao ty androanavy folo’ i rovay vaho natao’e ty hoe: Miambesara atoy. Le niambesatse iereo.
And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit ye down here. And they sat down.
3 Le hoe re amy longo-mpijebañey: Fa nivotrak’ atoy t’i Noomie boak’an-tane-Moabe añe, le fa haleta’e ty tane’ i Elimeleke rahalahin-tikañey,
And he said to the near kinsman, Naomi, who has come again out of the country of Moab, sells the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech's.
4 le nataoko ho soa ty hampiboahako ama’o, ami’ ty hoe; Kalò añatrefa’ o miambesatse etoañeo aolo’ o androanavi’ ondatikoo. Aa naho ho jebañe’o le jebaño; fa naho tsy hijebañañe le saontsio, ho fantako; fa tsy eo ty hijebañe aze naho tsy ihe; le izaho ty manonjohy. Le hoe re: Ho jebañeko.
And I thought to disclose it to thee, saying, Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people. If thou will redeem it, redeem it, but if thou will not redeem it, then tell me that I may know, for there is none to redeem it besides thee, and I am after thee. And he said, I will redeem it.
5 Aa hoe t’i Boaze: Amy andro ivilia’o am-pità’ i Noomie i taney, tsy ho nikaloe’o ka hao t’i Rote nte Moabe, vali’ i nihomakey, hampitroara’o amy lova’ey ty tahina’ i nivilasiy?
Then Boaz said, That day thou buy the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.
6 Aa hoe i longo-mpijebañey, Tsy lefeko ty hijebañe aze ho ahiko, tsy mone hampiantoeko ty lovako; aa le rambeso ty zom-pijebañañe; fa tsy meteko ty hijebañe aze.
And the near kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself lest I mar my own inheritance. Take thou my right of redemption on thee, for I cannot redeem it.
7 Zao ty nililitse taolo e Israele ao t’ie nanao fijebañañe ndra fanakaloañe, hañatò ze he’e: Afaha’ t’indaty ty hana’e vaho atolo’e am’ondatio; izay ty fitaliliañe e Israele ao.
Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: A man drew off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbor. And this was the manner of attestation in Israel.
8 Aa ie nanao ty hoe amy Boaze i longo-mpijebañey: Vilio ho azo, le nafaha’e i hana’ey.
So the near kinsman said to Boaz, Buy it for thyself. And he drew off his shoe.
9 Le hoe ty enta’ i Boaze amo androanavio: Valolombeloñe nahareo androany te viniliko am-pità’ i Noomie ze a i Elimeleke iaby naho ze hene vara’ i Kiliona naho i Malone,
And Boaz said to the elders, and to all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's, from the hand of Naomi.
10 mbore fa mandrambe i Rote nte Moabe, vali’ i Maklone, ho valiko hampitroarako an-dova’e ty tahina’ i nihomakey, tsy havitsok’ amo rahalahi’eo, ndra an-dalambey i toe’ey ty tahina’ i nihomakey. Valolombeloñe nahareo henane zao.
Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead not be cut off from among his brothers, and from the gate of his place. Ye are witnesses this day.
11 Aa le songa nanao ty hoe o androanavy naho ondaty an-dalambeio, Eka, valolombeloñe zahay. Ehe te hampanahafe’ Iehovà amy Rakele naho i Leàe i rakemba niheo añ’anjomba’oy, i roe nandranjy ty anjomba’ Israele rey; hanarànake e Efratà irehe vaho hanan-tahinañe e Betlekheme ao;
And all the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. Jehovah make the woman that has come into thy house like Rachel and like Leah, which two built the house of Israel, and do thou worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem.
12 le ee te ho hambañe amy anjomba’ i Peretse nasama’ i Tamare ho a Iehodày, i tiry hatolo’ Iehovà azo añamy rakemba tora’eiy.
And let thy house be like the house of Perez whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the seed which Jehovah shall give thee by this young woman.
13 Aa le nengae’ i Boaze t’i Rote, ie ty tañ’anjomba’e; aa ie nimoak’ ama’e le nampiareñe’ Iehovà vaho nahatoly ana-dahy.
So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife. And he went in to her, and Jehovah gave her conception, and she bore a son.
14 Le hoe o rakembao amy Noomie: Andriañeñe t’Iehovà, te tsy nifarie’e tsy ho amam-pijeban-drehe, lonike te ho arofoanañe e Israele ao ty tahina’e.
And the women said to Naomi, Blessed be Jehovah, who has not left thee this day without a near kinsman. And let his name be famous in Israel.
15 T’ie ho fampisotrafen-kavelo’o, hameloñe ty haantera’o; fa toe lombolombo’ ty ana-dahy fito i vinanto’o mikoko azo nisamak’ azey.
And he shall be to thee a restorer of life, and a nourisher of thine old age, for thy daughter-in-law, who loves thee, who is better to thee than seven sons, has borne him.
16 Aa le rinambe’ i Noomie i anak’ ajajay naho notroñe’e añ’araña’e eo, vaho ie ty nimpampinono aze.
And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse to it.
17 Le o rakemba rañe’eo ro nañomey aze ty añara’e, ami’ty hoe: Nahatoly ana-dahy t’i Noomie; le natao’ iereo Ovede; ie ty rae’ Iisaý, rae’ i Davide.
And the women, her neighbors, gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi. And they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 Zao o tarira’ i Pèretseo; nisamake i Ketsrone t’i Pèretse;
Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez begot Hezron,
19 le nisamake i Rame t’i Ketsrone; le nisamake i Aminadabe t’Rame;
and Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminadab,
20 le nisamake i Naksone t’i Aminadabe, naho nisamake i Salmà t’i Naksone
and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
21 le nisamake i Boaze t’i Salmà; vaho nisamake i Ovede t’i Boaze,
and Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed,
22 le nisamake Iisaý t’i Ovede, le nisamahe’ Iisaý t’i Davide.
and Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David.
