URuthe 1
1 Kwasekusithi ensukwini abahluleli abahlulela ngazo kwaba khona indlala elizweni. Umuntu weBhethelehema-Juda wasehamba ukuyahlala njengowezizwe elizweni lakoMowabi, yena lomkakhe lamadodana akhe amabili.
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 Njalo ibizo lalowomuntu lalinguElimeleki, lebizo lomkakhe lalinguNawomi, lebizo lamadodana akhe amabili lalinguMaheloni loKiliyoni, amaEfratha eBhethelehema-Juda. Basebesiza elizweni lakoMowabi, baba 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 UElimeleki umkaNawomi wasesifa, wasetshiywa yena lamadodana akhe womabili.
Markaasaa waxaa dhintay Eliimeleg oo ahaa Nimco ninkeedii, oo waxaa hadhay iyadii iyo labadeedii wiil.
4 Asezithathela abafazi amaMowabikazi, ibizo lomunye lalinguOpha, lebizo lomunye lalinguRuthe. Basebehlala khona phose iminyaka 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 Basebesifa labo bobabili oMaheloni loKiliyoni; owesifazana wasetshiywa ngabantwana bakhe bobabili layindoda yakhe.
Oo haddana Maxloon iyo Kilyoon labadiiba way dhinteen; oo naagtii waxaa ka dhintay labadeedii carruur ahayd iyo ninkeedii.
6 Wasesukuma yena labomalokazana bakhe wabuyela esuka eselizweni lakoMowabi, ngoba wayesezwile elizweni lakoMowabi ukuthi iNkosi ihambele abantu bayo ngokubanika ukudla.
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 Ngakho waphuma endaweni lapho ayekhona labomalokazana bakhe bobabili kanye laye, bahamba endleleni ukubuyela elizweni lakoJuda.
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 kubomalokazana bakhe bobabili: Hambani libuyele ngulowo lalowo endlini kanina; iNkosi kayilenzele umusa njengoba lenza kwabafileyo lakimi.
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 INkosi kayilinike ukuthi lithole ukuphumula, ngulowo lalowo endlini yomkakhe. Wasebanga, basebephakamisa ilizwi labo bakhala inyembezi.
Rabbigu middiin kastaba nasasho ha ku siiyo guriga ninkeeda. Oo markaasay iyagii dhunkatay; oo iyana codkoodii bay kor u qaadeen oo ooyeen.
10 Basebesithi kuye: Isibili, sizabuyela lawe ebantwini bakini.
Oo waxay iyadii ku yidhaahdeen, Maya, laakiinse adigaannu kula noqonaynaa xaggii dadkaaga.
11 Kodwa uNawomi wathi: Buyelani, madodakazi ami, lizahambelani lami? Kambe ngiselamadodana esiswini sami ukuthi abe ngomkenu?
Markaasay Nimco waxay tidhi, Iska noqda, gabdhahaygiiyow, bal maxaad ii raacaysaan? Ma wiilal kalaa uurkayga ku hadhay oo niman idiin noqonaya?
12 Buyelani, madodakazi ami, zihambeleni, ngoba sengimdala kakhulu ukuthi ngibe lendoda. Loba ngingathi ngilethemba lokuthi lami ngalobubusuku ngibe lendoda, njalo 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 belingawalindela yini aze akhule? Belingazivimbela lingabi lendoda yini? Hatshi, madodakazi ami, ngoba kuyababa kakhulu kimi kulakini ukuthi isandla seNkosi siphume ukumelana lami.
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 Basebephakamisa ilizwi labo bakhala inyembezi futhi. UOpha wasemanga uninazala, kodwa uRuthe wanamathela kuye.
Markaasay codkoodii kor u qaadeen oo haddana way ooyeen; Corfahna soddohdeed bay dhunkatay; Ruudse way ku soo dhegtay.
15 Wasesithi: Khangela, umkamfowenu usebuyele ebantwini bakibo lakubonkulunkulu bakhe; buyela umlandele umkamfowenu.
Oo Nimco waxay ku tidhi, Bal eeg, dumaashidaa waxay ku noqotay dadkeedii iyo ilaaheedii; haddaba adna dumaashidaa daba gal.
16 Kodwa uRuthe wathi: Ungangincengi ukuthi ngikutshiye, ngibuyele ngiyekele ukukulandela; ngoba lapho oya khona, ngizakuya khona, lalapho olala khona, ngizalala khona. Abantu bakho bangabantu bami, loNkulunkulu wakho unguNkulunkulu 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, ngizafela khona, ngingcwatshelwe lapho. INkosi kayenze njalo kimi ngokunjalo yengezelele, ngoba yikufa kuphela okuzakwehlukanisa phakathi kwami lawe.
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 esebonile ukuthi uzimisele ukuhamba laye waseyekela ukukhuluma kuye.
Oo Nimco, markay aragtay inay aad iyo aad ugu adkaysatay inay raacdo ayay hadalkii ka daysay.
19 Basebehamba bobabili baze bafika eBhethelehema. Kwasekusithi sebefikile eBhethelehema umuzi wonke wayaluzela ngenxa yabo, bathi: Lo nguNawomi yini?
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 Wasesithi kibo: Lingangibizi ngokuthi Nawomi, lingibize ngokuthi Mara; ngoba uSomandla ungiphethe ngokubaba okukhulu.
Oo iyana waxay iyagii ku tidhi, Ha iigu yeedhina Nimco, laakiinse waxaad iigu yeedhaan Maara; waayo, Qaadirku wuxuu iila macaamilooday si qadhaadh.
21 Mina ngasuka ngigcwele, njalo iNkosi ingibuyise ngingelalutho. Lingibizelani ngokuthi Nawomi lokhu iNkosi ifakaze imelane lami, loSomandla ungihluphile?
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 Wabuyela ngokunjalo uNawomi loRuthe umMowabikazi umalokazana wakhe kanye laye, owabuyela evela elizweni lakoMowabi. Bona-ke bafika eBhethelehema ekuqaliseni kwesivuno sebhali.
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.
