Rute 3
1 Rimwe zuva Naomi, vamwene vake vakati kwaari, “Mwanasikana wangu, handingaedzi kukuwanira musha here, paungawana zvinokuriritira zvakakwana?
Afterward Naomi her mother in lawe said vnto her, My daughter, shall not I seeke rest for thee, that thou mayest prosper?
2 Ko, Bhoazi ane vasikana vawanga uchishanda navo haasi hama yedu yapedyo here? Achange ari paburiro achirudza bhari nhasi manheru.
Now also is not Boaz our kinsman, with whose maides thou wast? beholde, he winoweth barly to night in the floore.
3 Shamba ugozora mafuta anonhuhwira, ugopfeka nguo dzako dzakaisvonaka. Ipapo ugodzika kuburiro, asi usaite kuti azive kuti iwe uripo kusvikira apedza kudya nokunwa.
Wash thy sellfe therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment vpon thee, and get thee downe to the floore: let not the man know of thee, vntill he haue left eating and drinking.
4 Kana orara, ucherechedze nzvimbo yaanorara. Ipapo ugoenda ufukure tsoka dzake ugorara pasi. Achakuudza zvaunofanira kuita.”
And when he shall sleepe, marke the place where he layeth him downe, and go, and vncouer the place of his feete, and lay thee downe, and he shall tell thee what thou shalt doe.
5 Rute akapindura akati, “Ndichaita zvose zvamareva.”
And she answered her, All that thou biddest me, I will doe.
6 Naizvozvo akadzika kuburiro akaita zvose zvaakataurirwa navamwene vake.
So she went downe vnto the floore, and did according to all that her mother in lawe bade her.
7 Bhoazi akati apedza kudya nokunwa uye mwoyo wake wafara, akaenda akandorara kumuchetocheto kwomurwi wezviyo. Rute akaswedera kwaari chinyararire, akafukura tsoka dzake akarara pasi.
And when Boaz had eaten, and drunken, and cheared his heart, he went to lie downe at the end of the heape of corne, and she came softly, and vncouered the place of his feet, and lay downe.
8 Pakati pousiku chimwe chinhu chakavhundutsa murume, akashanduka akaona mukadzi akarara kumakumbo kwake.
And at midnight the man was afraide and caught holde: and loe, a woman lay at his feete.
9 Akamubvunza akati, “Ndiwe aniko?” Iye akati, “Ndini murandakadzi wenyu Rute. Tambanudzai chikamu chenguo yenyu muchiise pamusoro pangu, sezvo muri hama yapedyo nomudzikinuri.”
Then he sayd, Who art thou? And she answered, I am Ruth thine handmayd: spread therefore the wing of thy garment ouer thine handmayd: for thou art the kinsman.
10 Akapindura akati kwaari, “Jehovha akuropafadze, mwanasikana wangu. Tsitsi idzi dzakakura kupinda zvawakaratidza pakutanga. Hauna kumhanyira majaya, hazvinei kuti varombo kana vapfumi.
Then sayd he, Blessed be thou of the Lord, my daughter: thou hast shewed more goodnes in the latter end, then at the beginning, in as much as thou followedst not yong men, were they poore or rich.
11 Naizvozvo zvino, mwanasikana wangu, usatya. Ndichakuitira zvose zvawakakumbira. Varume vose vagere neni muguta vanoziva kuti uri mukadzi akatsiga.
And now, my daughter, feare not: I will doe to thee all that thou requirest: for all the citie of my people doeth knowe, that thou art a vertuous woman.
12 Kunyange zvazvo chiri chokwadi kuti ndiri hama yapedyo, pane imwe hama yapedyo ari pedyo kupfuura ini.
And now, it is true that I am thy kinsman, howbeit there is a kinsman neerer then I.
13 Chigara hako usiku huno, uye mangwanani kana achida kudzikinura, zvakanaka, ngaadzikinure hake. Asi kana asingadi, naJehovha mupenyu ini ndichazviita. Chivata pano kusvikira mangwanani.”
Tarie to night, and when morning is come, if he will doe the duetie of a kinsman vnto thee, well, let him doe the kinsmans duetie: but if he will not doe the kinsmans part, then wil I doe the duetie of a kinsman, as the Lord liueth: sleepe vntill the morning.
14 Naizvozvo akarara kumakumbo ake kusvikira mangwanani, asi akamuka mambakwedza pasina aigona kuzivikanwa kuti ndiani; uye Bhoazi akati, “Usaita kuti zvizivikanwe kuti pane mukadzi akauya paburiro.”
And she lay at his feete vntill the morning: and she arose before one could know another: for he sayd, Let no man knowe, that a woman came into the floore.
15 Akati kwaarizve, “Ndipe kuno mucheka wawakamonera ugoutambanudza.” Akati aita izvozvo, Bhoazi akadururira zviyero zvebhari zvitanhatu mauri akamutakudza pamusoro. Ipapo akadzokera kuguta.
Also he sayd, Bring the sheete that thou hast vpon thee, and holde it. And when she helde it, he measured sixe measures of barly, and layde them on her, and she went into the citie.
16 Zvino Rute akati asvika kuna vamwene vake, Naomi akamubvunza akati, “Zvaita mafambiroi mwanasikana wangu?” Ipapo iye akamuudza zvose zvaakanga aitirwa naBhoazi,
And when she came to her mother in law, she sayd, Who art thou, my daughter? And she tolde her all that the man had done to her,
17 uye akatizve, “Andipa zviyero zvitanhatu izvi zvebhari, akati, ‘Usadzokera kuna vamwene vako usina chinhu.’”
And said, These sixe measures of barly gaue he me: for he sayd to me, Thou shalt not come emptie vnto thy mother in lawe.
18 Ipapo Naomi akati, “Chimira, mwanasikana wangu, kusvikira waona zvinoitika. Nokuti murume uyu haangazorori kusvikira agadzirisa nyaya iyi nhasi.”
Then sayd she, My daughter, sit still, vntill thou knowe how the thing will fall: for the man wil not be in rest, vntill he hath finished the matter this same day.
