2 URuthe umMowabikazi wasesithi kuNawomi: Ake ngiye emasimini, ngiyekhothoza okwezikhwebu ngemva kwalowo engizathola umusa emehlweni akhe. Wasesithi kuye: Hamba, ndodakazi yami.
Gbe ɖeka la, Rut gblɔ na Naomi be, “Medi be mayi dɔmenyotɔ aɖe ƒe agble ne mafɔ nuku si nuxalawo gblẽ ɖi la va aƒe me.” Naomi gblɔ be, “Enyo; heyi.”
3 Wasehamba wafika wakhothoza ensimini ngemva kwabavuni. Waqabuka efika kungxenye yensimu kaBhowazi owayengowosendo lukaElimeleki.
Ale Rut yi. Nukutɔe la, agble si me wòyi la nye Boaz, ame si nye Naomi srɔ̃, Elimelek ƒe ƒometɔ la tɔ.
4 Khangela-ke, uBhowazi wafika evela eBhethelehema, wasesithi kubavuni: INkosi ibe lani. Basebesithi kuye: INkosi ikubusise.
Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, Boaz tso Betlehem va agble la, eye wòdo gbe na dɔwɔlawo be, “Yehowa nanɔ anyi kpli mi!” Woɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa nayra wò!”
5 UBhowazi wasesithi encekwini yakhe eyayibekwe phezu kwabavuni: Le yintombi kabani?

6 Inceku eyayibekwe phezu kwabavuni yasiphendula yathi: Yintombi umMowabikazi eyabuya loNawomi evela elizweni lakoMowabi.
Dzikpɔla la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɖetugbi si tso Moabnyigba dzi va kple lɔ̃xoa, Naomi lae.
7 Yasisithi: Ake ngikhothoze ngibuthe phakathi kwezithungo ngemva kwabavuni. Ngakho ifikile, iqhubekile kusukela ekuseni kuze kube khathesi; lokuhlala kwayo endlini kuncinyane.
Ebia mɔm ŋdi sia be yeafɔ nuku siwo ge le nuku bablawo me, eye esia dzi ko wòle tso ŋdi ke, fifia koe wòle ɖiɖim ɖe eme vie le vɔvɔli ma te.”
8 UBhowazi wasesithi kuRuthe: Kawuzwa yini, ndodakazi yami? Ungayikhothoza kwenye insimu, futhi ungedluli usuke lapha, kodwa unamathele lapha emantombazaneni ami.
Boaz gblɔ na Rut be, “Vinye, ɖo tom; mègayi ɖafɔ nuku siwo nuxalawo gblẽ ɖi la le agble bubu aɖeke me o, eye mègadzo le afi sia hã o. Lé ɖokuiwò ɖe nye dɔlanyɔnuwo ŋu.
9 Amehlo akho kawabe sensimini ayivunayo, uwalandele. Angithi ngiwalayile amajaha ukuthi angakuthinti. Nxa usuwomile uye ezimbizeni, unathe kulokhu amajaha akukhileyo.
Lé ŋku ɖe afi si ŋutsuawo le nuku xam le la ŋu, eye nàdze nye dɔlanyɔnuwo yome. Mede se na ŋutsuawo be womaɖe fu aɖeke na wò o, eye ne tsikɔ le wuwòm la, yi nàku tsi le ze siwo me ŋutsuawo ku tsi ɖo la me nàno.”
10 Khona wathi mbo ngobuso bakhe wakhothamela emhlabathini, wathi kuye: Ngitholelani umusa emehlweni akho ukuthi unginanze lokhu ngingowezizweni?
Nya siawo sese na Rut de ta agu, tsyɔ mo anyi, eye wògblɔ be, “Nu kae na nètsɔ ɖe le nye nya me? Nu ka ta nève amedzro aɖe nu ale ɖo?”
11 UBhowazi wasephendula wathi kuye: Kutshengisiwe lokutshengiswa kimi konke owakwenzela unyokozala emva kokufa kwendoda yakho, ukuthi utshiye uyihlo lonyoko lelizwe lokuzalwa kwakho, weza ebantwini owawungabazi ngaphambili.
Boaz ɖo eŋu be, “Mese nu siwo katã nèwɔ na lɔ̃xowò tso esime srɔ̃a ku. Menya nu tso ale si nègblẽ fofowò, dawò kple mia de ɖi kple ale si nèva le ame siwo mènya tsã o dome la ŋu.
12 INkosi kayiwuvuze umsebenzi wakho, sengathi umvuzo wakho opheleleyo kawuvele eNkosini uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, oze ngaphansi kwempiko zayo ukuphephela.
Yehowa naɖo nyui si nèwɔ la teƒe na wò. Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si gbɔ nèva le sitsoƒe dim le la naɖo eteƒe na wò.”
13 Wasesithi: Ake ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami, ngoba ungiduduzile, njalo ngoba ukhulume enhliziyweni yencekukazi yakho, lanxa mina ngingenjengenye yencekukazi zakho.
Rut ɖo eŋu be, “Akpe na wò, nye aƒetɔ. Èkpɔ nublanui nam ŋutɔ, èna nye dzi dze eme ɖe ale si nèƒo nu nam lɔlɔ̃tɔe ta, togbɔ be nyemede wò subɔla aɖeke nu o hã.”
14 UBhowazi wathi kuye: Ngesikhathi sokudla sondela lapha, udle okwesinkwa, utshebe ucezu lwakho kuviniga. Ngakho wahlala eceleni kwabavuni, wasemkhangeza amabele akhanzingiweyo; wadla wasutha watshiya.
Le ŋdɔnuɖuɣi la, Boaz yɔ Rut, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Va nàɖu nu kpli mí.” Rut nɔ dɔwɔlawo dome heɖu nu kpli wo ɖi ƒodo nyuie, eye nuɖuɖu si wonae la ƒe ɖe gasusɔ.
15 Kwathi esukuma ukukhothoza, uBhowazi walaya amajaha akhe esithi: Myekeleni ukuthi akhothoze laphakathi kwezithungo, lingamyangisi,
Esi wògayi nukua fɔfɔ dzi la, Boaz gblɔ na nuxalawo be woana wòafɔ nukuawo le bablawo me, eye womegaxe mɔ nɛ kura o.
16 laye limhwatshele-ke ngabomu okunye ezinyandeni, likutshiye ukuze akukhothoze, lingamkhuzi.
Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, woalũ nuku aɖewo tso nuku babla me ada ɖe eŋgɔ be wòafɔ, eye womegabia nya aɖekee o.
17 Wakhothoza-ke ensimini kwaze kwahlwa. Wabhula lokho ayekukhothozile, kwaba phose yi-efa yebhali.
Ale Rut fɔ nuku siwo ge ɖe agblea dzi la va se ɖe fiẽ. Emegbe la, enyɔ lu siwo wòfɔ ƒo ƒu la, eye eƒe dzidzeme anɔ lita blaeve-vɔ-eve.
18 Wakuthwala wangena emzini, loninazala wabona akukhothozileyo; wakhupha wamnika akutshiya esesuthi.
Rut tsɔ lu la yi dua me, eye lɔ̃xoa kpɔ esi sinu wòte ŋu fɔ. Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, Rut he nuɖuɖu si wòɖu la ƒe susɔe ɖe go, eye wòtsɔe nɛ.
19 Uninazala wasesithi kuye: Ubukhothoza ngaphi lamuhla? Usebenze ngaphi? Kabusiswe lowo okunanzeleleyo. Wasemtshela uninazala ukuthi usebenze kobani, wathi: Ibizo lalowomuntu engisebenze kuye lamuhla nguBhowazi.
Lɔ̃xoa biae be, “Afi ka tututue nèfɔ nuku le egbea? Afi ka nèwɔ dɔ le egbea? Woayra ŋutsu si ve nuwò alea!” Ale Rut gblɔ ame si ƒe agble me wòwɔ dɔ le la na lɔ̃xoa. Egblɔ nɛ be, “Ŋutsu si gbɔ mewɔ dɔ le egbe la ƒe ŋkɔe nye Boaz.”
20 UNawomi wasesithi kumalokazana wakhe: Kabusiswe yiNkosi engayekelanga umusa wayo kwabaphilayo lakwabafileyo. UNawomi wathi kuye: Lowomuntu uyisihlobo sethu esiseduze kithi, ongomunye wabahlengi bethu.
Naomi gblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvia be, “Yehowa neyrae! Medzudzɔ agbagbeawo kple kukuawo nu veve kpɔ o. Ŋutsu la nye míaƒe ƒometɔ ŋutɔŋutɔ, eye wònye ƒometɔ siwo wòle be woakpɔ mía dzi la dometɔ ɖeka.”
21 URuthe umMowabikazi wasesithi: Ngoba laye uthe kimi: Uzanamathela emajaheni engilawo aze aqede sonke isivuno engilaso.
Rut, Moab nyɔnu la yi edzi be, “Egblɔ nam gɔ̃ hã be magava, eye manɔ nuxalawo yome kplikplikpli va se ɖe esime woawu nukuawo xaxa le agble blibo la me nu.”
22 UNawomi wasesithi kuRuthe umalokazana wakhe: Kuhle, ndodakazi yami, ukuthi uphume lamantombazana akhe, hlezi bakuhlangabeze kwenye insimu.
Naomi gblɔ na lɔ̃xoyɔvia Rut be, “Vinyenyɔnu, anyo na wò be nànɔ eƒe nyɔnuviwo ŋu, elabena ne èyi ame bubu aɖe ƒe agble me la, ɖewohĩ woava wɔ nuvevi wò.”
23 Wasenamathela emantombazaneni kaBhowazi, ekhothoza kwaze kwaphela isivuno sebhali lesivuno sengqoloyi. Wasehlala loninazala.
