Ruut 4
1 Boʼeez gara karra magaalaatti baʼee achi taaʼe. Innis yommuu namichi dhaaluuf isa caalaa fira dhiʼoo taʼe sun dhufetti, “Yaa michuu ko, as kottuutii na bira taaʼi” jedheen. Kanaafuu inni dhaqee taaʼe.
Then went Boaz vp to the gate, and sate there, and beholde, the kinsman, of whome Boaz had spoken, came by: and he sayd, Ho, snch one, come, sit downe here. And he turned, and sate downe.
2 Boʼeezis maanguddoota magaalaa keessaa kudhan waamee, “As taaʼaa” jedheen; isaanis ni tataaʼan.
Then he tooke ten men of the Elders of the citie, and sayd, Sit ye downe here. And they sate downe.
3 Kana irratti namicha dhaaluuf aantummaa qabu sanaan akkana jedhe; “Naaʼomiin isheen Moʼaabii deebite sun lafa obboleessa keenya Eliimelek gurguruuf jirti.
And he said vnto ye kinsman, Naomi, that is come againe out of ye countrey of Moab, wil sell a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelechs.
4 Kanaafuu akka ati fuula warra as tataaʼaniitii fi fuula maanguddoota saba kootii duratti lafa kana bittuuf ani waan kana sitti himuu yaade. Yoo ofii keetiif dhaaluu barbaadde dhaali. Yoo dhaaluu baatte garuu akka ani beekuuf natti himi. Waan kana gochuuf si malee namni mirga qabu tokko iyyuu hin jiruutii; namni sitti aanee aantummaa qabu ana.” Namichis, “Ani nan dhaala” jedhe.
And I thought to aduertise thee, saying, Buy it before the assistants, and before the Elders of my people. If thou wilt redeeme it, redeeme it: but if thou wilt not redeeme it, tel me: for I know that there is none besides thee to redeeme it, and I am after thee. Then he answered, I wil redeeme it.
5 Boʼeezis, “Egaa gaafa Naaʼomiinii fi Ruuti Moʼaabittii irraa lafa bittutti ati maqaa namicha duʼe sanaa qabeenya isaatiin waamsisuudhaaf niitii isaa illee fudhachuu qabda” jedheen.
Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou mnst also buy it of Ruth the Moabitesse the wife of the dead, to stirre vp the name of the dead, vpon his inheritance.
6 Kana irratti firri dhiʼoo sun, “Yoos ani qabeenya mataa kootti rakkina fiduu dandaʼaatii dhaaluu hin dandaʼu. Ati mataan kee mirga dhaaluu kootii fudhadhuutii dhaali. Ani waan kana gochuu hin dandaʼu” jedheen.
And the kinsman answered, I can not redeeme it, lest I destroy mine owne inheritance: redeeme my right to thee, for I can not redeeme it.
7 Bara durii biyya Israaʼeliitti dhaalaa fi qabeenya walitti dabarsuun gareen tokko kophee isaa of irraa baasee garee kaaniif kennuudhaan mirkaneeffama ture. Israaʼel keessatti bituu fi gurguruun haaluma kanaan mirkaneeffama ture.
Now this was the maner beforetime in Israel, concerning redeeming and changing, for to stablish all things: a man did plucke off his shooe, and gaue it his neighbour, and this was a sure witnes in Israel.
8 Kanaafuu namichi dhaaluuf fira dhiʼoo ture sun Boʼeeziin, “Ati mataan kee bitadhu” jedhee kophee of irraa baase.
Therefore the kinsman sayd to Boas, Buy it for thee: and he drew off his shooe.
9 Boʼeezis maanguddootaa fi saba hundaan akkana jedhe; “Akka ani qabeenya Eliimelek, qabeenya Kiliiyooniitii fi qabeenya Mahiloon hunda Naaʼomiin irraa bite isin harʼa dhugaa baatota.
And Boaz sayd vnto the Elders and vnto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I haue bought all that was Elimelechs, and all that was Chilions and Mahlons, of the hand of Naomi.
10 Akkasumas akka maqaan isaa maatii isaa keessaa yookaan biyya isaa keessaa hin badneef ani qabeenya isaatiin maqaa isaa waamsisuudhaaf Ruuti Moʼaabittii niitii Mahiloon kana niitii godhadhee fuudhuu kootiif isin harʼa dhugaa baatota!”
And moreouer, Ruth the Moabitesse the wife of Mahlon, haue I bought to be my wife, to stirre vp the name of the dead vpon his inheritance, and that the name of the dead be not put out from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.
11 Maanguddoonnii fi namoonni karra sana dura turan hundinuu akkana jedhan; “Nu dhugaa baatota. Waaqayyo dubartii mana kee dhufaa jirtu kana akka Raahelii fi Liyaa warra tokkummaadhaan mana Israaʼel ijaaran sanaa haa godhu. Ati Efraataa keessatti nama jabaa, Beetlihem keessatti immoo beekamaa taʼi.
And all the people that were in the gate, and the Elders sayd, We are witnesses: the Lord make the wife that commeth into thine house, like Rahel and like Leah, which twaine did build the house of Israel: and that thou mayest doe worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Beth-lehem,
12 Karaa sanyii Waaqayyo dubartii dargaggeettii kana irraa siif kennuutiin maatiin kee akkuma maatii Faares isa Taamaar Yihuudaadhaaf deesse sanaa haa taʼu.”
And that thine house be like the house of Pharez (whom Thamar bare vnto Iudah) of the seede which the Lord shall giue thee of this yong woman.
13 Kanaafuu Boʼeez Ruutin fudhatee niitii godhate. Ishee wajjinis ciise; Waaqayyos akka isheen ulfooftee ilma deessu ishee gargaare.
So Boaz tooke Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in vnto her, the Lord gaue that she conceiued, and bare a sonne.
14 Dubartoonnis Naaʼomiiniin akkana jedhan; “Waaqayyo inni nama si dhaalu si hin dhabsiisin sun haa eebbifamu. Guutummaa Israaʼel keessattis inni maqaa haa qabaatu!
And the women sayd vnto Naomi, Blessed be the Lord, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, and his name shalbe continued in Israel.
15 Innis jireenya kee ni haaromsa; bara dulluma keetiittis si soora. Niitiin ilma keetii isheen si jaallattu kan ilmaan torba siif caaltu sun isa deesseertiitii.”
And this shall bring thy life againe, and cherish thine olde age: for thy daughter in lawe which loueth thee, hath borne vnto him, and she is better to thee then seuen sonnes.
16 Naaʼomiinis mucicha fuutee hammatte; guddiftuu isaa illee taate.
And Naomi tooke the childe, and layde it in her lap, and became nource vnto it.
17 Dubartoonni ollaas, “Naaʼomiin mucaa argatte” jedhan. Maqaa isaas Oobeedi jedhan. Inni akaakayyuu Daawit, abbaa Isseey.
And the women her neighbours gaue it a name, saying, There is a childe borne to Naomi, and called the name thereof Obed: the same was the father of Ishai, the father of Dauid.
18 Egaa hiddi dhaloota Faares kanaa dha: Faares abbaa Hezroon;
These now are ye generations of Pharez: Pharez begate Hezron,
19 Hezroon immoo abbaa Raam; Raam abbaa Amiinaadaab;
And Hezron begate Ram, and Ram begate Amminadab,
20 Amiinaadaab immoo abbaa Nahishoon; Nahishoon abbaa Salmoon;
And Amminadab begate Nahshon, and Nahshon begate Salmah,
21 Salmoon immoo abbaa Boʼeez; Boʼeez immoo abbaa Oobeedi;
And Salmon begate Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
22 Oobeedi immoo abbaa Isseey; Isseey immoo abbaa Daawit.
And Obed begate Ishai, and Ishai begate Dauid.
