Rut 4
1 Boas kɔɔ kurow no pon ano kɔtenaa ase wɔ hɔ. Bere a obusuani gyefo titiriw a ɔkaa ne ho asɛm no baa hɔ no, Boas frɛɛ no kae se, “Mʼadamfo, mesrɛ wo bra na mepɛ sɛ me ne wo twetwe nkɔmmɔ.” Enti wɔtenaa ase.
Therfor Booz stiede to the yate, and sat there; and whanne he hadde seyn the kynesman passe forth, of whom the word was had, Booz seide to hym, Bowe thou a litil, and sitte here; and he clepide hym bi his name. And he turnede, and sat.
2 Na Boas frɛɛ kurow no mu ntuanofo du sɛ wɔmmɛtena ase sɛ nnansefo.
Forsothe Booz took ten `men of the eldere men of the citee, and seide to hem, Sitte ye here.
3 Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ obusuani gyefo titiriw no se, “Wunim Naomi a ofi Moab bae no. Ɔretɔn asase a na ɛyɛ yɛn busuani Elimelek dea no.
And while thei saten, Booz spak to the kynesman, Noemy, that turnede ayen fro the cuntrey of Moab, seelde the part of the feeld of oure brother Elymelech,
4 Misusuw sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ, me ne wo di ho nkɔmmɔ na sɛ wopɛ a, woagye. Sɛ wopɛ asase no a, tɔ no ha yi ara wɔ saa nnansefo yi anim. Na sɛ wompɛ nso a, ma mente no mprempren ara, efisɛ sɛ woantumi annye a, me ne onipa a midi wʼakyi wɔ abusua no mu a ɛsɛ sɛ migye.” Na ɔbarima no buae se, “Megye.”
which thing Y wolde that thou here; and Y wolde seie to thee bifor alle `men syttynge and grettere in birthe of my puple. If thou wolt haue in possessioun the feeld bi riyt of nyy kyn, bye thou, and `haue thou in possessioun; sotheli if it displesith thee, schewe thou this same thing to me, that Y wyte what Y `owe to do; for noon is niy in kyn, outakun thee which art the formere, and outakun me which am the secunde. And he answeride, Y schal bie the feeld.
5 Afei, Boas ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛ wotɔ asase no fi Naomi nkyɛn a, na ɛsɛ sɛ woware Moabni okunafo Rut no. Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbɛwo mma a ne kunu din bɛda wɔn so na asase no bɛtena abusua no mu.”
To whom Booz seide, Whanne thou hast bouyte the feeld of the `hond of the womman, thou owist `to take also Ruth of Moab, that was the wijf of the deed man, that thou reise the name of thi kynesman in his eritage.
6 Ɛhɔ ara na abusua mu gyefo titiriw no kae se, “Ɛno de, merentumi ntɔ asase no, efisɛ ɛbɛhaw mʼankasa mʼagyapade. Tɔ asase no na merentumi ntɔ.”
Which answeride, Y forsake the ryyt of nyy kyn; for Y owe not to do awei the eritage of my meynee; vse thou my priuelegie, which priuelegie Y knowleche me to wante gladli.
7 Saa bere no, na ɛyɛ Israel amanne sɛ, sɛ obiara redan nʼade bi a watɔ no ɔkwan pa so ama obi foforo a, ɔworɔw ne mpaboa de ma nea ɔtɔ no. Wɔyɛ saa wɔ bagua mu de hyɛ adetɔ no mu den.
Forsothe this was the custom bi eld tyme in Israel among kynesmen, that if a man yaf his riyt to anothir man, that the grauntyng were stidefast, the man vnlaase his scho, and yaf to his kynesman; this was the witnessyng of the yift in Israel.
8 Enti abusua gyefo titiriw no worɔw ne mpaboa ka kyerɛɛ Boas se, “Wo ara tɔ asase no.”
Therfor Booz seide to his kynesman, Take the scho fro thee; `which scho he vnlaside anoon fro his foot.
9 Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ ɔman no ntuanofo no ne dɔm a wɔatwa ahyia hɔ no se, “Nnɛ matɔ Elimelek, Kilion ne Mahlon agyapade a ɛwɔ Naomi nsam, na moyɛ ɛho nnansefo.
And Booz seide to the grettere men in birthe and to al the puple, Ye ben witnessis to dai, that Y haue take in possessioun alle thingis that weren of Elymelech, and of Chelion, and of Maalon, bi the yifte of Noemy;
10 Menam asase no tɔ so afa Rut a ɔyɛ Moabni a ɔyɛ Mahlon kunafo no sɛ me yere. Ne saa nti, sɛ ɔwo ɔbabarima a, ɔbɛfa ne kunu a wawu no abusua din na wafa abusua agyapade a ɛwɔ ne kurom ha nso. Nnɛ, mo nyinaa moyɛ nnansefo.”
and that Y haue take in to wedlok Ruth of Moab, the wijf of Maalon, that Y reise the name of the deed man in his erytage; lest his name be doon awey fro his meynee and britheren and puple. Ye, he seide, ben witnessis of this thing.
11 Afei, ntuanofo no ne ɔmanfo no nyinaa sɔre gyina kae se, “Yɛyɛ nnansefo! Awurade mmoa mma ɔbea a afei na ɔreba wo fi no nyɛ sɛ Rahel ne Lea a wɔn mu na Israel aman nyinaa fi no. Wobɛyɛ ɔkɛse wɔ Efrata na woagye din wɔ Betlehem.
Al the puple, that was in the yate, answeride, and the grettere men in birthe answeriden, We ben witnessis; the Lord make this womman, that entrith in to thin hows, as Rachel and Lia, that bildiden the hows of Israel, that sche be ensaumple of vertu in Effrata, and haue a solempne name in Bethleem;
12 Na Awurade mfa ababaa yi so mma wo asefo a wɔbɛyɛ sɛ yɛn agya Peres a ɔyɛ Tamar ne Yuda babarima no.”
and thin hows be maad as the hows of Fares, whom Thamar childide to Judas, of the seed which the Lord schal yyue to thee of this damesel.
13 Enti Boas waree Rut de no kɔɔ ne fi. Afei, ɔkɔɔ ne ho na Awurade ma onyinsɛnee na ɔwoo ɔbabarima.
Therfor Booz took Ruth, and took hir to wijf; and he entride to hir, and the Lord yaf to hir, that sche conseyuede, `and childide a sone.
14 Na kurow no mu mmea ka kyerɛɛ Naomi se, “Anuonyam nka Awurade sɛ nnɛ da yi, wama woanya abusua gyefo! Ɔmmɛyɛ okunini wɔ Israel.
And wymmen seiden to Noemy, Blessid be the Lord, which `suffride not, that an eir failide to thi meynee, and his name were clepid in Israel;
15 Akokoaa yi mma wo nsi wo mmabaabere mu na ɔnhwɛ wo wɔ wo mmerewabɔ mu. Efisɛ ɔyɛ wʼase a ɔdɔ wo na ɔsen mmabarima ason ma wo no babarima.”
and that thou haue `a man, that schal coumforte thi soule, and nursche elde age. For a child is borun of thi douytir in lawe, `which child schal loue thee, and he is myche betere to thee, than if thou haddist seuene sones.
16 Na Naomi faa akokoaa no, na ɔhwɛɛ no te sɛ ɔno ankasa yafunu ba.
And Noemy puttide the child resseyued in hir bosum; and sche dide the office of a nurische, and of a berere.
17 Na mmea a wɔne no bɔ ofipam no kae se, “Afei de Naomi anya ɔbabarima bio.” Na wɔtoo no din Obed. Ɔno na ɔbɛyɛɛ Yisai agya ne Dawid nena.
Forsothe wymmen neiyboris thankiden hir, and seiden, A sone is borun to Noemy, and clepide his name Obeth. This is the fadir of Ysay, fadir of Dauid.
18 Tete agya Peres awo ntoatoaso ni: Peres woo Hesron.
These ben the generaciouns of Fares; Fares gendride Esrom;
19 Hesron woo Ram, na Ram woo Aminadab.
Esrom gendride Aram; Aram gendride Amynadab;
20 Aminadab woo Nahson, na Nahson woo Salmon.
Amynadab gendride Naason; Naason gendride Salmon; Salmon gendride Booz;
21 Salmon woo Boas, na Boas woo Obed.
Booz gendride Obeth;
22 Obed woo Yisai, na Yisai woo Dawid.
Obeth gendride Isay; Isay gendride Dauid the kyng.
