Rut 1
1 Bere a na atemmufo di Israel so no, ɔkɔm baa asase no so. Ɔbarima bi a ofi Betlehem wɔ Yuda ne ne yere ne ne mmabarima baanu tutu fii asase no so kɔtenaa Moab.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho naʻe pule ai ʻae kau fakamaau, naʻe tō ʻae honge ki he fonua. Pea ko e tangata ʻe tokotaha ʻo Petelihema Siuta naʻe ʻalu ia ke ʻāunofo ʻi he fonua ʻo Moape, ʻa ia, mo hono uaifi, mo hono ongo foha ʻe toko ua.
2 Na ɔbarima no din de Elimelek na ne yere nso din de Naomi. Ne mmabarima baanu no nso, na wɔn din de Mahlon ne Kilion. Wɔyɛ Efratifo a wofi Betlehem wɔ Yuda. Wɔkɔɔ Moab kɔtenaa hɔ.
Pea ko e hingoa ʻoe tangata ko ʻElimeleki, pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono uaifi ko Naomi, pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono ongo foha ko Maloni mo Kilioni, ko e kau ʻIfalemi ʻo Petelihema Siuta. Pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he fonua ko Moape, ʻo nofo ʻi ai.
3 Ɛbaa sɛ Naomi kunu Elimelek wu ma ɛkaa ne mmabarima baanu no.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa ʻElimeleki ko e husepāniti ʻo Naomi; pea naʻe nofo pe ia mo ʻene ongo tama.
4 Wɔwarewaree Moabfo mmea. Na ɔbaako din de Orpa na nea ɔka ho no nso din de Rut. Wɔtenaa hɔ bɛyɛ sɛ mfe du no,
Pea naʻa na ʻomi hona uaifi mei he kau fefine Moape; ko e hingoa ʻoe tokotaha ko Opa, pea ko hono hingoa ʻoe tokotaha ko Lute: pea naʻa nau nonofo ʻi ai ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu nai.
5 Mahlon ne Kilion nso wuwui. Enti ɛmaa Naomi tenaa ase a wahwere ne mmabarima baanu no ne ne kunu.
Pea naʻe pekia ai ʻa Māloni mo Kilioni fakatouʻosi pē; pea naʻe toʻo pehē mei he fefine ʻa ʻene ongo tama mo hono husepāniti.
6 Bere a ɔtee wɔ Moab hɔ sɛ Awurade abɛdom ne nkurɔfo a wɔwɔ Yuda na wama wɔn aduan no, Naomi ne ne nsenom yi yɛɛ ahoboa sɛ wɔrefi Moab asan akɔ ne kurom.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ia mo ʻene ongo taʻahine ʻi he fono, koeʻuhi ke hiki ia mei he fonua ko Moape: he kuo ne ongoʻi ʻi he fonua ko Moape kuo ʻaʻahi ʻe Sihova ki hono kakai ʻi he foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae meʻakai.
7 Ɔne ne nsenom baanu yi tutu fii beae hɔ faa kwan a ɛde wɔn bɛkɔ akosi Yuda so.
Ko ia naʻa ne ʻalu atu ai mei he potu naʻe ʻi ai ia, mo ʻene ongo taʻahine ʻi he fono mo ia; pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu pe ʻi he hala ke fononga ki he fonua ʻo Siuta.
8 Afei, Naomi ka kyerɛɛ ne nsenom yi se, “Monsan nkɔ mo nanom fi. Awurade ne mo nni no yiye sɛnea mo ne awufo ne me dii no yiye no.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi ki heʻene ongo taʻahine ʻi he fono, “Mo ō fakatouʻosi pe ʻo foki atu taki taha ki he fale ʻo ʻene faʻē: ke fai ʻofa ʻa Sihova kiate kimoua, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo mo fai ki he pekia, pea mo au.
9 Awurade mmoa mo mu biara na onya ɔhome wɔ okunu foforo fi.” Afei, ofifew wɔn ano na wɔn nyinaa maa wɔn nne so sui.
Ke tuku ʻe Sihova ke mo ʻilo ʻae fiemālie fakatouʻosi pe ʻi he fale ʻo homo husepāniti.” Pea naʻe toki ʻuma ia kiate kinaua; pea naʻa na hiki hona leʻo, ʻo tangi.
10 Na wɔka kyerɛɛ Naomi se, “Yɛne wo bɛsan akɔ wo nkurɔfo nkyɛn.”
Pea naʻa na pehē kiate ia, “Ko e moʻoni te ma ō mo koe ki ho kakai.
11 Nanso Naomi kae se, “Me mma, monsan nkɔ fie. Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ mo ne me kɔ? Merekɔwo mmabarima bio a wobetumi awareware mo ana?
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Naomi, “ʻA ʻeku ongo taʻahine mo foki atu: ko e hā te tau ō ai mo au? He ʻoku kei toe ha tama ʻi hoku fatu, koeʻuhi ke na hoko ko homo husepāniti?
12 Me mma, monsan nkɔ fie. Manyin, sɛ meware kunu bio a, ɛrenyɛ yiye. Mpo, sɛ midwen sɛ anidaso bi wɔ hɔ ma me sɛ nso anadwo yi ara minya okunu na me ne no wo mmabarima a,
Mo foki atu ʻa ʻeku ongo taʻahine, pea ʻalu ʻi homo hala: he kuo u motuʻa fau ke toe maʻu ha husepāniti. Ka ne u pehē ʻeau, ʻOku ou ʻamanaki lelei, pea ka ne maʻu ʻeau ha husepāniti he poōni foki, pea u fanauʻi ʻae tama tangata;
13 mobɛtwɛn kosi sɛ wobenyinyin? Mobɛtena atwɛn wɔn ana? Dabi, me mma. Asɛm no yɛ den ma me sen mo, efisɛ Awurade ayi ne nsa afi me so!”
He te mo tatali ki ai ke ʻoua ke na tupu? Te mo faʻa tatali ki ai, pea ʻoua naʻa maʻu ha husepāniti? ʻE ʻikai, ʻa ʻeku ongo taʻahine; he ʻoku ou mamahi lahi koeʻuhi ko kimoua ʻi heʻene mafao mai ʻae nima ʻo Sihova kiate au.”
14 Wɔsan twaa adwo bio. Afei, Orpa few nʼase ano de gyaa no kwan, nanso Rut bebaree Naomi sɛ ɔne no bɛtena.
Pea naʻa na hiki hake hona leʻo, ʻo toe tangi: pea ʻuma ʻa Opa ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono; ka naʻe pikitai ʻa Lute kiate ia.
15 Nanso Naomi ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Hwɛ, wo kora asan kɔ ne nkurɔfo ne nʼanyame nkyɛn. Ɛsɛ sɛ wo nso woyɛ saa ara.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai, kuo toe liu atu ʻa ho tokoua ʻi he fono ki hono kakai, pea ki hono ngaahi ʻotua: ke ke foki koe ʻo muimui atu ki ho tokoua ʻi he fono.”
16 Na Rut buae se, “Nhyɛ me sɛ mimfi wo nkyɛn nsan nkɔ. Baabiara a wobɛkɔ no, mɛkɔ hɔ bi na baabiara a wobɛtena no nso, mɛtena hɔ bi. Wo nkurɔfo bɛyɛ me nkurɔfo na wo Nyankopɔn ayɛ me Nyankopɔn.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Lute, “ʻOua naʻa ke kole ke u liʻaki koe, pe ke u foki mei heʻeku muimui ʻiate koe: he ko e potu ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai, te ta ō ai; pea ko e potu te ke mohe ai, te ta mohe ai: ko ho kakai ʻe hoko ko hoku kakai, pea ko ho ʻOtua ko hoku ʻOtua:
17 Baabi a wubewu no, mewu hɔ bi na wɔasie me hɔ. Sɛ mamma owu antetew me ne wo ntam na ɛnam biribi foforo biara so a, Awurade ntwe mʼaso.”
Ko e potu te ke mate ai, te u mate ai, pea te u tanu ʻi ai: ke fai pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, pea lahi hake, ʻo kapau ʻe ai ha meʻa te ta māvae ai mo koe ka ko e mate pe.”
18 Enti Naomi huu sɛ Rut ayɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔne no bɛkɔ no, ogyaa ne pɛ maa no.
Pea ʻi heʻene vakai ʻoku loto mālohi pe ia ke na ō mo ia, naʻe tuku ʻene kei lea ki ai.
19 Ɛno nti, wɔn baanu no toaa wɔn akwantu no so. Bere a woduu Betlehem no, wɔn nti kurow mu no nyinaa bɔɔ twi. Mmea no bisae se, “Naomi ni ana?”
Pea ko ia, naʻa na ō ai ke na hoko ki Petelihema. Pea ʻi heʻena hoko ki Petelihema, pea pehē, naʻe ngatū ʻae kolo kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko kinaua, pea nau fepehēʻaki, “Ko Naomi eni?”
20 Ɔkae se, “Mommfrɛ me Naomi, na mmom, momfrɛ me Mara, efisɛ Awurade ama asetena ayɛ nwen ama me.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa ui au ko Naomi kae ui au ko Mala: he kuo fai fakamamahi lahi kiate au ʻe he Māfimafi.
21 Merefi ha akɔ no na mewɔ biribiara, nanso Awurade de me aba fie nsapan. Adɛn nti na mofrɛ me Naomi wɔ bere a Awurade ama mahu amane na Otumfo de saa abɛbrɛsɛ yi aba me so?”
Naʻaku ʻalu kituʻa kuo u fonu, pea kuo toe ʻomi au ʻe Sihova ki ʻapi kuo u maha: pea koeʻumaʻā hoʻomou ui au ko Naomi, he kuo tukuakiʻi au ʻe Sihova, pea kuo fakamamahiʻi au ʻe he Māfimafi?”
22 Enti Naomi fi Moab bae a, nʼase Rut, Moabni babun ka ne ho. Woduu Betlehem atokotwa bere mfiase no mu.
Ko ia naʻe liu mai ʻa Naomi, mo Lute ko e fefine Moape, ko ʻene tama ʻi he fono naʻe haʻu mo ia, ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei he fonua ko Moape: pea naʻa na hoko ki Petelihema ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻoe ututaʻu paʻale.
