1 Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu tegey iriddii magaalada, oo halkaasuu fadhiistay; oo bal eeg waxaa ag yimid ninkii Bocas ka hadlay ee ahaa xigaalka uga dhow. Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, War, hebelow, soo leexo, oo bal kaalay, halkan fadhiiso. Kolkaasuu soo leexday oo fadhiistay.
Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there. Behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by. Boaz said to him, “Come over here, friend, and sit down!” He came over, and sat down.
2 Markaasuu wuxuu soo kaxaystay toban nin oo odayaashii magaalada ah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal halkan fadhiista, oo iyana way fadhiisteen.
Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, “Sit down here,” and they sat down.
3 Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi ninkii xigaalka u dhow ahaa, Nimco oo ka soo noqotay waddankii reer Moo'aab ayaa iibinaysa jagadii dhulka ahayd ee uu lahaa walaalkeen Eliimeleg.
He said to the near kinsman, “Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s.
4 Oo waxay ila noqotay inaan ku ogeysiiyo inaad ku iibsato kuwa halkan fadhiya iyo odayaasha dadkayga hortooda. Haddaad doonaysid inaad iibsatid, iibso, laakiinse haddaanad doonaynin inaad iibsatid ii sheeg aan ogaadee, waayo, nin kaaga dhow oo iibsanaya ma jiro, oo anna adigaan kaa dambeeyaa. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waan iibsanayaa.
I thought I should tell you, saying, ‘Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.” He said, “I will redeem it.”
5 Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu yidhi, Maalintii aad Nimco gacanteeda beerta ka iibsatid, waa inaad Ruud tii reer Moo'aabna ka iibsataa, taasoo ah naagtii kii dhintay, inaad kii dhintay magiciisii ku soo celisid dhulkii dhaxalkiisa ahaa.
Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must buy it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance.”
6 Markaasaa ninkii xigaalka u dhow ahaa wuxuu yidhi, Anigu taas ma iibsan karo, waayo, waaba intaasoo aan dhaxalkayga halleeyaa; haddaba adigu qaado xaqii aan iibsashada u lahaa, maxaa yeelay, anigu ma aan iibsan karo.
The near kinsman said, “I can’t redeem it for myself, lest I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption for yourself; for I can’t redeem it.”
7 Oo haddaba waagii hore reer binu Israa'iil dhexdooda caadadii ku saabsanayd kala iibsashada iyo kala beddelashada waxay ahayd in nin kabtiisa iska siibo oo uu deriskiisa u dhiibo in wax walba la sii adkeeyo aawadeed. Taasu waxay reer binu Israa'iil u ahayd sida loo markhaati furo.
Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man took off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbor; and this was the way of formalizing transactions in Israel.
8 Sidaas daraaddeed ninkii xigaalka u dhow ahaa wuxuu Bocas ku yidhi, Adigu soo iibso. Markaasuu kabtiisii iska siibay.
So the near kinsman said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” then he took off his sandal.
9 Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu ku yidhi odayaashii iyo dadkii oo dhanba, Bal idinku maanta markhaatiyaal baad ka tihiin inaan Nimco gacanteeda ka iibsaday kulli wixii Eliimeleg lahaa oo dhan, iyo kulli wixii Kilyoon iyo Maxloon lahaayeen oo dhan.
Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses today, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, from the hand of Naomi.
10 Oo weliba Ruud tii reer Moo'aab oo ahayd naagtii Maxloonna waxaan u iibsaday inay naagtaydii ahaato ee aan kii dhintay magiciisii u soo celiyo dhulkii uu dhaxalka u lahaa, si uusan kii dhintay magiciisii uga go'in walaalihiis dhexdooda iyo iriddii meeshiisa; idinku markhaatiyaal baad ka tihiin.
Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”
11 Markaasaa dadkii iridda joogay oo dhan iyo odayaashiiba waxay yidhaahdeen, Markhaatiyaal baannu ka nahay. Naagta gurigaaga soo gashay Rabbigu ha ka dhigo sidii Raaxeel iyo Lee'ah, labadaas oo ahaa kuwii dhisay reerkii Israa'iil; oo adna Efraataah ku barwaaqow, Beytlaxamna caan ku ahow.
All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May Yahweh make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which both built the house of Israel; and treat you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem.
12 Oo farcanka Rabbigu kaa siin doono naagtan dhallintayar reerkaagu ha ku noqdo sidii reerkii Feres, kaasoo ahaa kii Taamaar u dhashay Yahuudah.
Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which Yahweh will give you by this young woman.”
13 Markaasuu Bocas kaxaystay Ruud, oo iyana waxay noqotay naagtiisii; kolkaasuu iyadii u tegey, oo Rabbiguna wuxuu iyadii siiyey uur oo waxay dhashay wiil.
So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and Yahweh enabled her to conceive, and she bore a son.
14 Markaasaa dumarkii waxay Nimco ku yidhaahdeen, Mahad waxaa leh Rabbiga aan maanta xigaalla'aan ku dhigin, oo magiciisuna reer binu Israa'iil caan ha ku dhex ahaado.
The women said to Naomi, “Blessed be Yahweh, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel.
15 Oo isna wuxuu kuu noqon doonaa naf-sooceliye iyo ku markaad gabowdo ku quudiya. Waayo, waxaa isaga kuu dhashay gabadhii aad soddohda u ahayd ee ku jeclayd, ee kaaga sii wanaagsan toddoba wiil.
He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.”
16 Markaasaa Nimco wiilkii qaadday oo laabta ku jiifisay, oo waxay u noqotay tu xannaanaysa.
Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him.
17 Markaasaa dumarkii deriska u ahaa magac u bixiyeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Wiil baa u dhashay Nimco, oo magiciisiina waxay u bixiyeen Coobeed; oo isagu waa Yesay aabbihiis, kii Daa'uud dhalay.
The women, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, “A son is born to Naomi”. They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 Haddaba kuwanu waa abtirsiinyadii Feres. Feres wuxuu dhalay Xesroon;
Now this is the history of the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron,
19 Xesroonna wuxuu dhalay Raam, Raamna wuxuu dhalay Cammiinaadaab;
and Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab,
20 Cammiinaadaabna wuxuu dhalay Naxshoon, Naxshoonna wuxuu dhalay Salmoon;
and Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon,
21 Salmoonna wuxuu dhalay Bocas, Bocasna wuxuu dhalay Coobeed;
and Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed,
22 Coobeedna wuxuu dhalay Yesay, Yesayna wuxuu dhalay Daa'uud.
and Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.
