Obisae se, “Na hena ni?” Obuae se, “Ɛyɛ me wo somfo Rut. Trɛw wo nkataso no mu kakra gu me so na woyɛ mʼabusua gyefo.”
10 Yena wathi, “UThixo akubusise, ndodakazi yami. Umusa wakho lo mkhulu ukwedlula lokho okwenze kuqala. Awuzange ukhethe ukulandelana lamajaha, ingabe nganothileyo loba angabayanga.
Na Boas kae se, “Awurade nhyira wo, me babea! Worekyerɛ abusua dɔ a bi mmaa da sɛ woankodi aberantewa bi akyi, sɛ ɔwɔ sika anaa ɔyɛ ohiani.
11 Ngakho-ke, ungesabi ndodakazi yami. Ngizakwenzela konke okucelayo. Bonke abantu bakulo umuzi bayakwazi ukuthi wena ungowesifazane oqotho.
Afei, me babea, mma hwee nhaw wo. Mɛyɛ nea ehia wo nyinaa. Me kurow yi mu nnipa nyinaa nim sɛ woyɛ ɔbea a wudi wo ho ni.
12 Lanxa kuliqiniso ukuthi mina ngiyisihlobo esihlengayo, kodwa ukhona oyisihlobo esiseduze okwedlula mina.
Nanso akwanside baako wɔ hɔ. Ɛyɛ nokware turodoo sɛ meyɛ mo abusua agyefo mu baako de, nanso ɔbarima foforo bi wɔ hɔ a ɔyɛ obusuani titiriw sen me.
13 Hlala lapha lobubusuku, kuthi ekuseni nxa efuna ukukuhlenga; uzakwenza njalo. Kodwa nxa engakavumi lokho, mina ngizakwenza lokho njengoba uThixo ephila. Lala lapha kuze kuse.”
Tena ha anadwo yi na sɛ ade kye a, me ne no bɛkasa. Sɛ ɛyɛ ne pɛ sɛ obegye wo a, ɛno de ma ho kwan na ɔnware wo. Na sɛ ɛnyɛ ne pɛ nso a, ɛno de, ɔkwan biara so, sɛ Awurade te ase yi, mɛware wo! Enti da ha ma ade nkye.”
14 Ngakho walala kwaze kwasa, wasevuka engakananzelelwa muntu; uBhowazi wathi kuye, “Ungaze watshela muntu ukuthi ukhona owesifazane oke weza esizeni.”
Enti Rut daa ne nan ho kosii adekyee nanso ɔsɔree ansa na anim tetew. Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ obi hu sɛ ɔbea bi bɛdaa awiporowbea ha.”
15 Wengeza wathi, “Letha kimi isembatho leso osembetheyo usivule.” Kwathi esenzenjalo, wathela kuso ibhali eyizilinganiso eziyisithupha wamethesa. Wasesuka wabuyela ngekhaya.

na ɔtoaa so se, “Ɔmaa me atoko susukoraa asia kae se, ‘Mfa nsapan nkɔ wʼase nkyɛn.’”
18 UNawomi wasesithi, “Mana ndodakazi yami, uze ubone okuzakwenzakala. Umuntu lo kasoke aphumule indaba le ize ilungiswe lamhlanje.”
Afei, Naomi kae se, “Me ba, twɛn kosi sɛ wubehu nea ebesi. Ɔbarima no renna so kosi sɛ asɛm no besi nnɛ yi ara.”
