< Ruth 4 >
1 Ndipo Boazi akaenda kwenye lango la Bethelehemu na kukaa chini. Muda mfupi tu akaja ndugu wa karibu ambaye Boazi alimuongelea. Boazi akamwambia, “Rafiki yangu, njoo hapa na uketi. Kisha mtu huyo akaja na kuketi.
and Boaz to ascend: rise [the] gate and to dwell there and behold [the] to redeem: redeem to pass which to speak: speak Boaz and to say to turn aside: turn aside [emph?] to dwell [emph?] here someone someone and to turn aside: turn aside and to dwell
2 Ndipo Boazi akakusanya viongozi kumi wa mji na kusema, “Katini hapa.” Hivyo wakaketi.
and to take: take ten human from old: elder [the] city and to say to dwell here and to dwell
3 Boazi alimwambia yule jamaa wa karibu, “Naomi aliyerudi kutoka mji wa Moabu, anauza sehemu ya aridhi ambayo ilikuwa ni miliki ya kaka yetu Elimeleki.
and to say to/for to redeem: redeem portion [the] land: country which to/for brother: male-relative our to/for Elimelech to sell Naomi [the] to return: return from land: country Moab
4 Nilifikiria kukujulisha na kukwambia, 'Inunue mbele ya hawa waliokaa hapa, na mbele ya viongozi wa watu wangu.' Ikiwa utapenda kuikomboa, ikomboe. Lakini ikiwa hauhitaji kuikomboa, uniambie, ili nijue, kwa kuwa hakuna mwingine wa kuikomboa isipokuwa wewe, na mimi ni mdogo wako.” Ndipo huyo mtu mwingine akasema, “Nitalikomboa.”
and I to say to reveal: reveal ear: to ears your to/for to say to buy before [the] to dwell and before old: elder people my if to redeem: redeem to redeem: redeem and if not to redeem: redeem to tell [emph?] to/for me (and to know *Q(K)*) for nothing exception you to/for to redeem: redeem and I after you and to say I to redeem: redeem
5 Kisha Boazi akasema, “Ile siku utakayonunua shamba kutoka mkononi mwa Naomi, yakupasa pia kumchukua Ruth Mmoabu, mjane wa mtoto wa Elimeleki, ili kuliinua jina la marehemu kama urithi wake.”
and to say Boaz in/on/with day to buy you [the] land: country from hand Naomi and from with Ruth [the] Moabite woman: wife [the] to die (to buy *Q(K)*) to/for to arise: establish name [the] to die upon inheritance his
6 Ndipo yule jamaa wa karibu akasema, “Mimi siwezi kuikomboa ardhi kwa ajili yangu bila kuleta athari kwenye urithi wangu binafsi. Nakupa wewe haki ya kuikomboa kwa ajili yako mwenyewe, kwa kuwa mimi sitoweza.”
and to say [the] to redeem: redeem not be able (to/for to redeem: redeem *Q(k)*) to/for me lest to ruin [obj] inheritance my to redeem: redeem to/for you you(m. s.) [obj] redemption my for not be able to/for to redeem: redeem
7 Hii ilikuwa ni desturi ya zamani ya Israeli kuhusu ukombozi na kubadilishana mazuri. Kudhibitisha mambo haya yote, mtu huyu alivua kiatu chake na kumpatia jirani yake; hii ilikuwa ni namna ya kufanya makubaliano ya kisheria katika Israeli.
and this to/for face: before in/on/with Israel upon [the] redemption and upon [the] exchange to/for to arise: establish all word: case to draw man: anyone sandal his and to give: give to/for neighbor his and this [the] testimony in/on/with Israel
8 Kwa hiyo huyu jamaa wa karibu akamwambia Boazi, “Inunue mwenyewe.” Kisha akavua kiatu chake.
and to say [the] to redeem: redeem to/for Boaz to buy to/for you and to draw sandal his
9 Ndipo Boazi akawaambia viongozi na watu wote, “Ninyi ni mashaidi kuwa nimenunua kila kilichokuwa cha Elimeleki na kila kilichokuwa na Kileoni na Mahilon kutoka kwenye mikono ya Naomi.
and to say Boaz to/for old: elder and all [the] people witness you(m. p.) [the] day: today for to buy [obj] all which to/for Elimelech and [obj] all which to/for Chilion and Mahlon from hand Naomi
10 Zaidi ya hayo kumhusu Ruth Mmoabu, mke wa Mahlon: nimempa kibali cha kuwa mke wangu, ili kuendeleza jina na urithi wa marehumu, ili kwamba jina lake lisipotee kati ya ndugu zake na lango la watu wake. Ninyi ni mashahidi leo.”
and also [obj] Ruth [the] Moabite woman: wife Mahlon to buy to/for me to/for woman: wife to/for to arise: establish name [the] to die upon inheritance his and not to cut: eliminate name [the] to die from from with brother: male-relative his and from gate place his witness you(m. p.) [the] day: today
11 Watu wote na viongozi waliokuwa katika lango, walisema, “Tu mashahidi. Yahweh amfanye mwanamke huyu ambaye amekuja nyumbani kwako kama Raheli na Leya, ambao wawili hawa wameijenga nyumba ya Israeli. Na ubarikiwe katika Efrata na kuwa mashuhuri katika Bethelehem.
and to say all [the] people which in/on/with gate and [the] old: elder witness to give: make LORD [obj] [the] woman [the] to come (in): come to(wards) house: household your like/as Rachel and like/as Leah which to build two their [obj] house: household Israel and to make: do strength: worthy in/on/with Ephrath and to call: call by name in/on/with Bethlehem Bethlehem
12 Na nyumba yako kama nyumba ya Peres, ambaye Tamari alimzalia yuda, kupitia uzao ambao Yahweh atakupatia pamoja na msichana huyu.”
and to be house: household your like/as house: household Perez which to beget Tamar to/for Judah from [the] seed: children which to give: give LORD to/for you from [the] maiden [the] this
13 Hivyo Boazi alimchukua Ruth, na akawa mke wake. Boazi alilala naye, na Yahweh alimruhusu kupata mimba, na alizaa mtoto wa kiume.
and to take: take Boaz [obj] Ruth and to be to/for him to/for woman: wife and to come (in): come to(wards) her and to give: give LORD to/for her conception and to beget son: child
14 Wanamke huyu akamwambia Naomi, “Yahweh abarikiwe, ambaye hajakuacha bila ndugu wa karibu, yaani mtoto huyu. Jina lake na liwe maarufu katika Israeli.
and to say [the] woman to(wards) Naomi to bless LORD which not to cease to/for you to redeem: redeem [the] day: today and to call: call by name his in/on/with Israel
15 Na awe kwako mrutubishaji wa maisha na mwenye ruzuku uzeeni mwako, kwa kuwa mtoto wako mkwe, ambaye anakupenda, ambaye ni bora kwako kuliko watoto wa kiume saba, amemzaa.
and to be to/for you to/for to return: rescue soul: life and to/for to sustain [obj] greyheaded your for daughter-in-law your which to love: lover you to beget him which he/she/it pleasant to/for you from seven son: child
16 Kisha naomi akamchukua mtoto, akamlaza kifuani pake, na kumhudumia.
and to take: take Naomi [obj] [the] youth and to set: put him in/on/with bosom: embrace her and to be to/for him to/for be faithful
17 Na majirani wa yule mwanamke, wakampa jina, wakisema, “Mtoto amezaliwa kwa Naomi.” Wakawita Obedi. Ambaye alikuja kuwa baba yake na Jese, ambaye alikuja kuwa baba yake na Daudi.
and to call: call by to/for him [the] neighboring name to/for to say to beget son: child to/for Naomi and to call: call by name his Obed he/she/it father Jesse father David
18 Hiki kilikuwa ni kizazi cha Peresi: Peres alimzaa Hezroni,
and these generation Perez Perez to beget [obj] Hezron
19 Hezroni akamzaa Ram, Ram akamzaa Aminadabu,
and Hezron to beget [obj] Ram and Ram to beget [obj] Amminadab
20 Aminadabu akamzaa Nashon, Nashon akamzaa Salmon,
and Amminadab to beget [obj] Nahshon and Nahshon to beget [obj] Salmon
21 Salmon akamzaa Boazi, Boazi akamzaa Obed,
and Salmon to beget [obj] Boaz and Boaz to beget [obj] Obed
22 Obedi akamzaa Jese, na Jese akamzaa Daudi.
and Obed to beget [obj] Jesse and Jesse to beget [obj] David
