Rut 3
1 Da bi Naomi ka kyerɛɛ Rut se, “Me babea, bere adu sɛ mehwehwɛ ofi a wobɛtena mu na wubenya nea ehia wo biara.
Forsothe aftir that Ruth turnede ayen to hir modir in lawe, Ruth herde of hir, My douytir, Y schal seke reste to thee, and Y schal purueye that it be wel to thee.
2 Boas yɛ yɛn busuani pɛɛ na wayɛ adɔe mmoroso sɛ wama wo ne nʼadwumayɛfo aboaboa atoko ano. Anadwo yi, obehuhuw atoko so wɔ awiporowbea hɔ.
This Booz, to whose damesels thou were ioyned in the feeld, is oure kynesman, and in this niyt he wyndewith the corn floor of barli.
3 Enti yɛ nea merekyerɛ wo yi. Guare na tutu aduhuam gu wo ho na fa wo ntade pa bi hyɛ. Afei, kɔ awiporowbea hɔ, nanso mma Boas nhu wo kosi sɛ obedidi awie.
Therfor be thou waischun, and anoyntid, and be thou clothid with onestere clothis, and go doun in to the corn floor; the man, `that is, Booz, se not thee, til he haue endid the mete and drynke.
4 Hwɛ na hu baabi a ɔda hɔ yiye, afei, kɔ na koyi ne nan ho nkataho na da hɔ. Ɔbɛka nea ɔpɛ sɛ woyɛ akyerɛ wo.”
Forsothe whanne he goth to slepe, marke thou the place `in which he slepith; and thou schalt come and vnhile the cloth, `with which he is hilid, fro the part of the feet, and thou schalt caste thee doun, and thou schalt ly there. Forsothe he schal seie to thee, what thou `owist to do.
5 Rut kae se, “Biribiara a wobɛka akyerɛ me sɛ menyɛ no, mɛyɛ.”
Which answeride, What euer thing thou comaundist, Y schal do.
6 Enti ɔkɔɔ awiporowbea hɔ anadwo no, na ɔyɛɛ nea nʼase kyerɛɛ no no mu biara.
And sche yede doun in to the corn floor, and dide alle thingis whiche hir modir in lawe comaundide to hir.
7 Boas didi wiee no a ne honhom aba ne ho no, ɔkyeaa ne ho too atoko mmoano no ho, na ɔfaa mu dae. Rut yɛɛ nwaa koyii ne nan ho nkataho na ɔdaa hɔ.
And whanne Booz hadde ete and drunke, and was maad gladere, and hadde go to slepe bisidis the `heep of handfuls, sche cam, and hidde hir silf; and whanne the cloth was vnhilid fro `hise feet, sche castide doun hir silf.
8 Anadwo dasum no, Boas bɔɔ pitiri dan ne ho. Ɛyɛɛ no nwonwa sɛ ohuu sɛ ɔbea da ne nan ase.
And lo! now at mydnyyt `the man dredde, and was troblid; and he siy a womman lyggynge at hise feet;
9 Obisae se, “Na hena ni?” Obuae se, “Ɛyɛ me wo somfo Rut. Trɛw wo nkataso no mu kakra gu me so na woyɛ mʼabusua gyefo.”
and he seide to hir, Who art thou? Sche answeride, Y am Ruth, thin handmayde; stretche forth thi cloth on thi seruauntesse, for thou art nyy of kyn.
10 Na Boas kae se, “Awurade nhyira wo, me babea! Worekyerɛ abusua dɔ a bi mmaa da sɛ woankodi aberantewa bi akyi, sɛ ɔwɔ sika anaa ɔyɛ ohiani.
And he seide, Douytir, thou art blessid of the Lord, and thou hast ouercome the formere mercy with the lattere; for thou `suedist not yonge men, pore ethir riche.
11 Afei, me babea, mma hwee nhaw wo. Mɛyɛ nea ehia wo nyinaa. Me kurow yi mu nnipa nyinaa nim sɛ woyɛ ɔbea a wudi wo ho ni.
Therfor `nyle thou drede, but what euer thing thou schalt seie to me, Y schal do to thee; for al the puple that dwellith with ynne the yatis of my cytee woot, that thou art a womman of vertu.
12 Nanso akwanside baako wɔ hɔ. Ɛyɛ nokware turodoo sɛ meyɛ mo abusua agyefo mu baako de, nanso ɔbarima foforo bi wɔ hɔ a ɔyɛ obusuani titiriw sen me.
And Y forsake not, that Y am of nyy kyn, but another man is neer than Y;
13 Tena ha anadwo yi na sɛ ade kye a, me ne no bɛkasa. Sɛ ɛyɛ ne pɛ sɛ obegye wo a, ɛno de ma ho kwan na ɔnware wo. Na sɛ ɛnyɛ ne pɛ nso a, ɛno de, ɔkwan biara so, sɛ Awurade te ase yi, mɛware wo! Enti da ha ma ade nkye.”
reste thou in this nyyt, and whanne the morewtid is maad, if he wole holde thee bi riyt of nyy kyn, the thing is wel doon; forsothe if he nyle, Y schal take thee with outen ony doute, the Lord lyueth, `that is, bi the Lord lyuynge; slepe thou til the morewtid.
14 Enti Rut daa ne nan ho kosii adekyee nanso ɔsɔree ansa na anim tetew. Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ obi hu sɛ ɔbea bi bɛdaa awiporowbea ha.”
Therfore sche slepte at `hise feet til to the goyng awey of nyyt, and so sche roos bifor that men knewen `hem silf togidere. And Booz seide to hir, Be thou war lest ony man knowe, that thou camest hidir.
15 Boas toaa so kae se, “Fa wʼatade nguguso no bra na trɛw mu.” Ɔsesaw atoko no susukoraa asia guu mu na ɔboaa no ma ɔde hyɛɛ nʼakyi. Na Boas san kɔɔ kurow no mu.
And eft he seide, Stretche forth thi mentil `with which thou `art hilid, and holde thou with euer either hond. And while sche stretchide forth and helde, he mete sixe buyschels of barly, and `puttide on hir; and sche bar, and entride in to the citee,
16 Rut baa nʼase Naomi nkyɛn no, obisaa no se, “Me babea, ekosii dɛn?” Rut kaa biribiara a Boas yɛ maa no no kyerɛɛ Naomi,
and cam to hir modir in lawe. Which seide to Ruth, What hast thou do, douyter? And Ruth telde to hir alle thingis, whyche `the man hadde do to hir.
17 na ɔtoaa so se, “Ɔmaa me atoko susukoraa asia kae se, ‘Mfa nsapan nkɔ wʼase nkyɛn.’”
And Ruth seide, Lo! he yaf to me sixe buyschels of barly; and he seide, Y nyle that thou turne ayen voide to thi modir in lawe.
18 Afei, Naomi kae se, “Me ba, twɛn kosi sɛ wubehu nea ebesi. Ɔbarima no renna so kosi sɛ asɛm no besi nnɛ yi ara.”
And Noemy seide, Abide, douytir, til we sien what issu the thing schal haue; for the man schal not ceesse, no but he fille tho thingis whiche he spak.
