URuthe 1
1 Ngezinsuku kubusa abahluleli, kwaba lendlala elizweni. Ngakho indoda ethile yaseBhethilehema koJuda kanye lomkayo lamadodana abo amabili, basuka bayahlala elizweni lamaMowabi okwesikhatshana.
Waagii xaakinnadu wax xukumi jireen abaar baa dalkii ka dhacday. Markaasaa nin Beytlaxam Yahuudah ka tegey, oo wuxuu qariib ahaan u degay waddankii Moo'aab, isagii iyo naagtiisii, iyo labadiisii wiilba.
2 Ibizo lalindoda lalingu-Elimeleki, elomkakhe linguNawomi, amadodana akhe amabili ayengoMaheloni loKhiliyoni. Babengama-Efrathi aseBhethilehema koJuda. Baya eMowabi bayahlala khona.
Oo ninkaas magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Eliimeleg, naagtiisana waxaa la odhan jiray Nimco, labadiisa wiil magacyadooduna waxay ahaayeen Maxloon iyo Kilyoon, oo qoladooduna waxay ahayd reer Efraad oo Beytlaxam Yahuudah ka yimid. Oo waxay soo galeen waddankii Moo'aab, oo halkaasay iska degeen.
3 U-Elimeleki, umkaNawomi wafa, wasesala lamadodana akhe womabili.
Markaasaa waxaa dhintay Eliimeleg oo ahaa Nimco ninkeedii, oo waxaa hadhay iyadii iyo labadeedii wiil.
4 Athatha abafazi baseMowabi, omunye wayethiwa ngu-Opha omunye ethiwa nguRuthe. Sebehlale lapho okweminyaka elitshumi,
Oo iyana waxay naago ka guursadeen dumarkii reer Moo'aab; oo naagahoodii mid magaceedii waxaa la odhan jiray Corfah, tan kale magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Ruud; oo waxay halkaas degganaayeen intii toban sannadood ku dhow.
5 bobabili uMaheloni loKhiliyoni labo bafa, uNawomi wasesala engaselamadodana kanye lomkakhe.
Oo haddana Maxloon iyo Kilyoon labadiiba way dhinteen; oo naagtii waxaa ka dhintay labadeedii carruur ahayd iyo ninkeedii.
6 Wathi esizwa eseMowabi ukuthi uThixo wayesesize abantu bakhe ngokubapha ukudla, uNawomi kanye labomalukazana bakhe balungisela ukubuyela kibo.
Markaasay kacday iyadoo wadata labadii gabdhood ee ay soddohda u ahayd inay ka noqoto waddankii Moo'aab; waayo, waxay waddankii Moo'aab ku maqashay in Rabbigu dadkiisii soo booqday oo uu cunto siiyey.
7 Wasuka endaweni ayekade ehlala kuyo, labomalukazana bakhe bobabili, wangena indlela eyayizabasa emuva elizweni lamaJuda.
Oo markaasay meeshii ay joogtay ka tagtay, oo labadii gabdhood oo ay soddohda u ahaydna way la socdeen; oo jidkay qaadeen inay ku noqdaan dalkii reer Yahuudah.
8 UNawomi wasesithi kubomalukazana bakhe bobabili, “Buyelani emuva, ngulowo lalowo aye emzini kanina. Engani uThixo angalenzela umusa onjengalowo elingitshengise wona kanye labomkenu asebedlule.
Markaasaa Nimco waxay ku tidhi labadii gabdhood ee ay soddohda u ahayd, Taga oo middiin kastaaba ha ku noqoto gurigii hooyadeed; oo Rabbigu si raxmad leh ha idiin yeelo taasoo ah sidii aad ula macaamilooteen kuwii dhintay iyo anigaba.
9 Sengathi uThixo angenza ukuba ngulowo lalowo athole inhlalo enhle nxa esendele kwenye indoda.” Wasebanga, basebekhala kakhulu
Rabbigu middiin kastaba nasasho ha ku siiyo guriga ninkeeda. Oo markaasay iyagii dhunkatay; oo iyana codkoodii bay kor u qaadeen oo ooyeen.
10 bathi kuye, “Sizahamba lawe ebantwini bakini.”
Oo waxay iyadii ku yidhaahdeen, Maya, laakiinse adigaannu kula noqonaynaa xaggii dadkaaga.
11 Kodwa uNawomi wathi, “Buyelani ngekhaya madodakazi ami. Kambe lingabe lihambelani lami? Ngingazala amanye amadodana na angaba ngomkenu?
Markaasay Nimco waxay tidhi, Iska noqda, gabdhahaygiiyow, bal maxaad ii raacaysaan? Ma wiilal kalaa uurkayga ku hadhay oo niman idiin noqonaya?
12 Buyelani ngekhaya madodakazi ami. Sengigugile, angingeke ngibe ngisazuza enye indoda. Loba bekungabe kulethemba lokuthi ngende loba bengingaba lendoda ngabona lobubusuku ngizale amadodana,
Iska noqda, gabdhahaygiiyow, oo iska taga, waayo, waan ka gaboobay inaan nin guursado. Haddii aan odhan lahaa, Weli rajaan qabaa, iyo haddii xataa aan caawa nin guursado, ee haddana wiilal dhalo,
13 lingawamelela aze akhule na? Lingahlala lingendanga lilindele wona na? Hatshi, madodakazi ami. Kubuhlungu kakhulu lokho kimi okwedlula kini ngoba ingalo kaThixo isingihlanekele!”
haddaba ma waxaad sugaysaan ilaa ay ka koraan? Oo ma sidaas baad isaga daynaysaan inaad niman guursataan? Gabdhahaygiiyow, maya, waayo, taasaan aad uga xumaanayaa idinka aawadiin, waayo, waxaa igu soo baxday gacanta Rabbiga.
14 Bekuzwa lokho bakhala njalo. U-Opha wasesanga uninazala wamvalelisa, kodwa uRuthe wabambelela kuye.
Markaasay codkoodii kor u qaadeen oo haddana way ooyeen; Corfahna soddohdeed bay dhunkatay; Ruudse way ku soo dhegtay.
15 UNawomi wathi, “Khangela, unyanewenu usebuyela kwabakibo kanye labonkulunkulu bakhe. Buyela laye.”
Oo Nimco waxay ku tidhi, Bal eeg, dumaashidaa waxay ku noqotay dadkeedii iyo ilaaheedii; haddaba adna dumaashidaa daba gal.
16 URuthe waphendula wathi, “Ungangincengi ukuba ngikutshiye loba ukuba ngikufulathele. Lapho oya khona ngizakuya khona, lalapho ozahlala khona ngizahlala khona. Abantu bakini bazakuba ngabakithi loNkulunkulu wakho uzakuba nguNkulunkulu wami.
Kolkaasaa Ruud waxay ku tidhi, Ha iga baryin inaan kaa tago, oo aan kaa noqdo, oo aanan ku raacin; maxaa yeelay, meeshii aad tagtid waan tegi doonaa; meeshaad degtidna waan degi doonaa, dadkaaguna wuxuu noqon doonaa dadkayga, Ilaahaaguna wuxuu noqon doonaa Ilaahayga.
17 Lapho ozafela khona lami ngizafela khona njalo ngizangcwatshelwa khona. Sengathi uThixo angangihlanekela nxa ngingehlukana lawe ngenxa yolunye ulutho olungesikufa.”
Meeshaad ku dhimatid ayaan ku dhiman doonaa, oo halkaasaa laygu aasi doonaa. Rabbigu sidaas ha igu sameeyo iyo ka sii badanba, haddii aniga iyo adiga, dhimasho mooyaane, wax kaleto ina kala kexeeyaan.
18 Kwathi uNawomi esebonile ukuthi uRuthe uzimisele ukuhamba laye, waseyekela ukumcindezela.
Oo Nimco, markay aragtay inay aad iyo aad ugu adkaysatay inay raacdo ayay hadalkii ka daysay.
19 Basebehamba bobabili baze bayafika eBhethilehema. Bathi befika eBhethilehema, umuzi wonke waba lokuxokozela ngabo, kwathi abesifazane bababaza besithi, “Angabe enguNawomi lo na?”
Sidaas daraaddeed labadoodiiba way israaceen ilaa ay yimaadeen Beytlaxam. Oo markay Beytlaxam yimaadeen, magaaladii oo dhammu waa ku soo ururtay, oo dumarkiina waxay yidhaahdeen, Tanu ma Nimco baa?
20 Yena wathi kubo, “Lingangibizi ngokuthi nginguNawomi. Wothani nginguMara, ngoba uSomandla wenze impilo yami yaba munyu.
Oo iyana waxay iyagii ku tidhi, Ha iigu yeedhina Nimco, laakiinse waxaad iigu yeedhaan Maara; waayo, Qaadirku wuxuu iila macaamilooday si qadhaadh.
21 Ngasuka lapha ngigcwele, kodwa uThixo usengibuyise ngingelalutho. Lingangibizelani ngokuthi nginguNawomi? UThixo ungehlisele uhlupho; uSomandla ungehlisele okubi.”
Anigoo buuxaan tegey, oo Rabbigu wuxuu i soo celiyey anigoo madhan. Haddaba maxaad iigu yeedhaysaan Nimco? Maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu waa igu marag furay, oo Qaadirku waa i dhibay.
22 Ngakho uNawomi wabuyela ngokunjalo eBhethilehema evela eMowabi. Wafika ephelekezelwa nguRuthe umalukazana wakhe waseMowabi. Bafika ngesikhathi sokuqalisa ukuvuna ibhali.
Sidaasay Nimco iyo Ruud tii reer Moo'aab ee ay soddohda u ahaydba u noqdeen, oo waxay ka soo laabteen waddankii Moo'aab oo Beytlaxam yimaadeen markay goosashada shaciirku bilaabatay.
