< 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.
But Bo'az went up to the gate, and sat down there; and, behold, the kinsman of whom Bo'az had spoken came passing by; and he said unto him, Turn aside hither, sit down here, such a one. 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 unto the kinsman, Na'omi, that is returned out of the field of Moab, hath to sell a 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 inform thee of it, saying, Buy it before those sitting here, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem it; but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know; for there is none beside thee to redeem it, 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 said Bo'az, On the day that thou buyest the field out of the hand of Na'omi, thou buyest it also from 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 kinsman said, I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I injure my own inheritance: redeem thou what I should redeem for thyself; for I am not able to 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 formerly the custom in Israel at a redeeming and at an exchanging, to confirm any thing, that a man pulled off his shoe, and gave it to the other; and this was the manner of testimony in Israel.
8 Aa ie nanao ty hoe amy Boaze i longo-mpijebañey: Vilio ho azo, le nafaha’e i hana’ey.
Thereupon said the kinsman unto Bo'az, Buy it for thee. And he pulled 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 Bo'az said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that belonged to Elimelech, and all that belonged to Kilyon and Machlon, out of the hand of Na'omi.
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.
And also Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Machlon, have I obtained for myself as my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren, 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 that were in the gate, and the elders, said, [We are] witnesses. The Lord grant that the woman that is coming into thy house be like Rachel and like Leah, who did both build up the house of Israel: and acquire thou wealth in Ephrathah, and let thy name become famous in Beth-lechem;
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 may thy house be like the house of Perez, whom Thamar bore unto Judah, through the seed which the Lord will give thee of 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.
And Bo'az took Ruth, and she became his wife, and he went in unto her: and the Lord 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 unto Na'omi, Blessed be the Lord, who hath not allowed to be wanting unto thee a kinsman this day: and may his name become 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 may he be unto thee one who refresheth thy soul, and who nourisheth thy old age; for thy daughter-in-law, who loveth thee, hath born him, she who is better to thee than seven sons.
16 Aa le rinambe’ i Noomie i anak’ ajajay naho notroñe’e añ’araña’e eo, vaho ie ty nimpampinono aze.
And Na'omi took the child, and laid it in her lap, and she became a nurse unto 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 neighboring women gave him a name, saying, There hath been a son born unto Na'omi: and they called his name 'Obed, who is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 Zao o tarira’ i Pèretseo; nisamake i Ketsrone t’i Pèretse;
And these are the generations of Perez: Perez begat Chezron;
19 le nisamake i Rame t’i Ketsrone; le nisamake i Aminadabe t’Rame;
And Chezron begat Ram; and Ram begat 'Amminadab;
20 le nisamake i Naksone t’i Aminadabe, naho nisamake i Salmà t’i Naksone
And 'Amminadab begat Nachshon; and Nachshon begat Salmah;
21 le nisamake i Boaze t’i Salmà; vaho nisamake i Ovede t’i Boaze,
And Salmon begat Bo'az; and Bo'az begat 'Obed;
22 le nisamake Iisaý t’i Ovede, le nisamahe’ Iisaý t’i Davide.
And 'Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
