Rute 4
1 Zvichakadaro, Bhoazi akakwira akaenda pasuo reguta akandogarapo. Hama yapedyo mudzikinuri uya waaireva akati asvika, Bhoazi akati kwaari, “Douya napano, shamwari yangu, ugogara pasi.” Naizvozvo akaenda akandogara pasi.
And Boaz has gone up to the gate, and sits there, and behold, the redeemer is passing by of whom Boaz had spoken, and he says, “Turn aside, sit down here, such a one, such a one”; and he turns aside and sits down.
2 Bhoazi akatora vakuru veguta gumi akati kwavari, “Garai pano apa,” ivo vakaita saizvozvo.
And he takes ten men from [the] elderly of the city, and says, “Sit down here”; and they sit down.
3 Ipapo akati kuhama yapedyo, mudzikinuri, “Naomi uya akadzoka kumusha kubva kuMoabhu, ari kutengesa munda waiva waErimereki hama yedu.
And he says to the redeemer, “A portion of the field which [is] to our brother, to Elimelech, has Naomi sold, who has come back from the fields of Moab;
4 Ndafunga kuti ndiise nyaya kwauri nokukupa zano rokuti utenge pamberi paavo vagere pano uye napamberi pavakuru vavanhu vangu. Kana uchida kuudzikinura, ita hako izvozvo. Asi kana usingadi, ndiudze, kuti ndigoziva. Nokuti hapana mumwe ane mvumo yokuzviita kunze kwako, uye ini ndini ndinokutevera.” Iye akati, “Ndichautenga.”
and I said, I uncover your ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants and before [the] elderly of my people; if you redeem—redeem, and if none redeems—declare [it] to me and I know, for there is none except you to redeem, and I after you.” And he says, “I redeem [it].”
5 Ipapo Bhoazi akati, “Pazuva raunotenga munda uyu kubva kuna Naomi naRute muMoabhu, unotorawo chirikadzi yomushakabvu, kuitira kuti mumutse zita romufi nenhaka yake.”
And Boaz says, “In the day of your buying the field from the hand of Naomi, then from Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, you have bought [it], to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance.”
6 Uye hama yapedyo, mudzikinuri akati, “Kana zvakadaro handingagoni kuudzikinura nokuti ndingazokanganisa nhaka yanguwo. Chiutenga iwe pachako. Ini handikwanisi kuzviita.”
And the redeemer says, “I am not able to redeem [it] for myself, lest I destroy my inheritance; redeem for yourself—you—my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem.”
7 (Zvino pamazuva akare muIsraeri, pakutenga nokutsinhana midziyo uye kuti zvisimbiswe, mumwe aibvisa shangu yake oipa kuno mumwe. Iyi ndiyo yaiva nzira yokuita chibvumirano zviri pamutemo muIsraeri.)
And this [is] formerly in Israel for redemption and for exchanging, to establish anything: a man has drawn off his sandal, and given [it] to his neighbor, and this [is] the Testimony in Israel.
8 Naizvozvo hama yapedyo, mudzikinuri akati kuna Bhoazi, “Chiutenga iwe.” Uye akabvisa shangu yake.
And the redeemer says to Boaz, “Buy [it] for yourself,” and draws off his sandal.
9 Ipapo Bhoazi akazivisa vakuru navanhu vose akati, “Nhasi muri zvapupu zvokuti ndatenga kubva kuna Naomi zvake zvose nazvose zvaiva zvaErimereki, zvaKirioni nezvaMaroni.
And Boaz says to the elderly, and [to] all the people, “You [are] witnesses today that I have bought all that [belonged] to Elimelech, and all that [belonged] to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi;
10 Ndatorawo Rute muMoabhu, chirikadzi yaMaroni, kuti ave mukadzi wangu kuti ndimutse zita romushakabvu pamwe chete nenhaka yake, kuitira kuti zita rake rirege kurova mumhuri yake kana mumabhuku eguta. Nhasi ndimi zvapupu!”
and also Ruth the Moabitess, wife of Mahlon, I have bought to myself for a wife, to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance; and the name of the dead is not cut off from among his brothers, and from the gate of his place; witnesses you [are] today.”
11 Ipapo vakuru navose vaiva pasuo vakati, “Tiri zvapupu isu. Jehovha ngaaite kuti mukadzi ari kuuya mumusha mako ave saRakeri naRea, avo vakavaka pamwe chete imba yaIsraeri. Iwe dai ukasimudzirwa muEfurata uye ukava nomukurumbira muBheterehema.
And all the people who [are] in the gate say—also the elderly, “Witnesses! YHWH makes the woman who is coming to your house as Rachel and as Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and you do virtuously in Ephrathah, and proclaim the name in Beth-Lehem;
12 Kubudikidza navana vaunopiwa naJehovha nomukadzi wechidiki uyu, mhuri yako ngaive seyaPerezi, uyo akaberekerwa Judha naTamari.”
and let your house be as the house of Perez (whom Tamar bore to Judah), of the seed which YHWH gives to you of this young woman.”
13 Naizvozvo Bhoazi akatora Rute akava mukadzi wake. Zvino akapinda kwaari Jehovha akamuita kuti abate pamuviri, iye akabereka mwanakomana.
And Boaz takes Ruth, and she becomes his wife, and he goes in to her, and YHWH gives conception to her, and she bears a son.
14 Vakadzi vakati kuna Naomi, “Jehovha ngaarumbidzwe, uyo asina kukusiya usina hama yapedyo, mudzikinuri. Ngaave nomukurumbira pakati peIsraeri yose!
And the women say to Naomi, “Blessed [is] YHWH who has not let a redeemer cease to you today, and his name is proclaimed in Israel,
15 Achavandudza upenyu hwako nokukuchengeta pamazuva okuchembera kwako. Nokuti muroora wako, uyo anokuda uye anokunda vanakomana vanomwe, ndiye amubereka.”
and he has been to you for a restorer of life, and for a nourisher of your old age, for your daughter-in-law who has loved you—who is better to you than seven sons—has borne him.”
16 Ipapo Naomi akatora mwana, akamuisa pamakumbo ake akamurera.
And Naomi takes the boy, and lays him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse;
17 Vakadzi vaigarako vakati, “Naomi ava nomwana womukomana.” Zvino vakamutumidza kuti Obhedhi. Ndiye aiva baba vaJese, baba vaDhavhidhi.
and the neighboring women give a name to him, saying, “There has been a son born to Naomi,” and they call his name Obed; he [is] father of Jesse, father of David.
18 Iyi ndiyo imba yaPerezi: Perezi akabereka Hezironi,
And these are generations of Perez: Perez begot Hezron,
19 Hezironi akabereka Ramu, Ramu akabereka Aminadhabhi,
and Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminidab,
20 Aminadhabhi akabereka Nashoni, Nashoni akabereka Sarimoni,
and Amminidab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
21 Sarimoni akabereka Bhoazi, Bhoazi akabereka Obhedhi,
and Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed,
22 Obhedhi akabereka Jese, uye Jese akabereka Dhavhidhi.
and Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David.
