Mũthenya ũmwe-rĩ, Naomi, nyaciarawe wa Ruthu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ wakwa, githĩ ndiagĩrĩirwo ngũcarĩrie mũciĩ waku, kũrĩa wee ũngĩona maũndũ mega?
2 Boas yɛ yɛn busuani pɛɛ na wayɛ adɔeɛ mmorosoɔ sɛ wama wo ne nʼadwumayɛfoɔ aboaboa atokoɔ ano. Anadwo yi, ɔbɛhuhu atokoɔ so wɔ ayuporobea hɔ.
Githĩ Boazu ũcio wee ũkoretwo na ndungata ciake cia airĩtu ti mũndũ wa rũrĩra rwitũ? Ũtukũ ũyũ nĩguo ekũhuha cairi kĩhuhĩro-inĩ.
3 Enti, yɛ deɛ merekyerɛ wo yi. Dware na tutu aduhwam gu wo ho na fa wo ntadeɛ pa bi hyɛ. Afei, kɔ ayuporobea hɔ, nanso mma Boas nhunu wo kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛdidi awie.
Wĩthambe na wĩhake maguta mekũnunga wega, ningĩ wĩhumbe nguo ciaku iria njega mũno. Ũcooke ũikũrũke ũkinye kĩhuhĩro-inĩ, no ndũkeyonithie mũndũ ũcio nginya arĩkie kũrĩa na kũnyua.
4 Hwɛ na hunu baabi a ɔda hɔ yie, afei, kɔ na kɔyi ne nan ho akatasoɔ na da hɔ. Ɔbɛka deɛ ɔpɛ sɛ woyɛ akyerɛ wo.”
Rĩrĩa arĩkoma, wone harĩa akoma. Ningĩ ũthiĩ ho na ũhumbũrie magũrũ make, ũkome ho. Nake nĩegũkwĩra ũrĩa wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka.”
5 Rut kaa sɛ, “Biribiara a wobɛka akyerɛ me sɛ menyɛ no, mɛyɛ.”
Ruthu akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ macio mothe wanjĩĩra no mo ngwĩka.”
6 Enti, ɔkɔɔ ayuporobea hɔ anadwo no, na ɔdii akwankyerɛ a nʼase de maa no no so.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩikũrũka agĩkinya kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩu, na agĩĩka ũrĩa wothe nyaciarawe aamwĩrĩte eeke.
7 Boas didi wieeɛ no a ne honhom aba ne ho no, ɔkyeaa ne ho too atokoɔ mmoano no ho, na ɔfaa mu daeɛ. Rut yɛɛ nwaa kɔyii ne nan ho akatasoɔ na ɔdaa hɔ.
Na rĩrĩa Boazu aarĩkirie kũrĩa na kũnyua, na agĩkorwo arĩ mũkenu, agĩthiĩ agĩkoma mũthia-inĩ biũ wa hĩba ya cairi. Nake Ruthu agĩthiĩ acemete, akĩmũhumbũria magũrũ, agĩkoma ho.
8 Anadwo dasuo mu no, Boas bɔɔ pitiri danee ne ho. Ɛyɛɛ no nwanwa sɛ ɔhunuu sɛ ɔbaa da ne nan ase.
Ũtukũ gatagatĩ, kĩndũ gĩkĩhahũra Boazu, nake egarũra, agĩkora nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja wakomete magũrũ-inĩ make.
9 Ɔbisaa sɛ, “Na hwan nie?” Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ me wo ɔsomfoɔ Rut. Trɛ wo nkatasoɔ no mu kakra gu me so na woyɛ mʼabusua gyefoɔ.”
Akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩwe ũ?” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ ndungata yaku Ruthu. Tambũrũkia gĩcurĩ kĩa nguo yaku ũũhumbĩre, nĩ ũndũ wee nĩwe ũngĩtũmenyerera.”
10 Na Boas kaa sɛ, “Awurade nhyira wo, me babaa! Worekyerɛ abusua dɔ a ebi mmaa da sɛ woankɔdi aberantewaa bi akyi, sɛ ɔwɔ sika anaa ɔyɛ ohiani.
Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova arokũrathima mwarĩ wakwa. Ũtugi ũrĩa wonania nĩũkĩrĩte ũrĩa wonanirie kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ, nĩ ũndũ ndũnenda kũrũmanĩrĩra na aanake, marĩ athĩĩni kana marĩ itonga.
11 Afei, me babaa, mma hwee nha wo. Mɛyɛ deɛ ɛho hia, ɛfiri sɛ, obiara a ɔwɔ kuro yi mu nim sɛ woyɛ ɔbaa a wodi wo ho ni.
Na rĩrĩ, mwarĩ wakwa, ndũgetigĩre. Nĩngũgwĩkĩra ũrĩa wothe ũkũũhooya. Andũ othe a itũũra rĩĩrĩ riitũ nĩmooĩ atĩ wee ũrĩ mũndũ-wa-nja ngatha.
12 Nanso, akwansideɛ baako wɔ hɔ. Ɛyɛ nokorɛ turodoo sɛ meyɛ mo abusua agyefoɔ mu baako deɛ, nanso, ɔbarima foforɔ bi wɔ hɔ a ɔyɛ obusuani nimpɔn sene me.
O na gũtuĩka ndĩ ũmwe wa arĩa mangĩkũmenyerera-rĩ, nĩ harĩ mũndũ ũngĩ ũngĩkũmenyerera wa hakuhĩ kũngĩra.
13 Tena ha anadwo yi na sɛ adeɛ kye a, me ne no bɛkasa. Sɛ ɛyɛ ne pɛ sɛ ɔbɛgye wo a, ɛnneɛ ma ho kwan na ɔnware wo. Na sɛ ɛnyɛ ne pɛ nso a, ɛnneɛ, ɛkwan biara so, sɛ Awurade te ase yi, mɛware wo! Enti da ha ma adeɛ nkye.”
Rĩu kĩraare haha ũtukũ ũyũ, na rũciinĩ gwakĩa angĩkorwo nĩekwenda gũkũmenyerera, nĩ wega; nĩagakũmenyerera. No angĩkorwo ndekwenda, o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, nĩngakũmenyerera. Kĩraare haha nginya rũciũ rũciinĩ.”
14 Enti, Rut daa ne nan ho kɔsii adekyeeɛ nanso ɔsɔree ɛberɛ a na anim ayɛ hwanihwani no. Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ obi hunu sɛ ɔbaa bi bɛdaa ayuporeeɛ ha.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ruthu agĩkoma hau magũrũ-inĩ make nginya rũciinĩ, no akĩroka gũũkĩra rũciinĩ tene kũrĩ mairia, nake Boazu akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkareke kũmenyeke atĩ nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ-wa-nja ũrokĩte kĩhuhĩro-inĩ.”
15 Boas toaa so kaa sɛ, “Fa wʼatadeɛ ngugusoɔ no bra na trɛ mu.” Ɔsesaa atokoɔ no susukora nsia guu mu na ɔboaa no maa ɔde hyɛɛ nʼakyi. Na Boas sane kɔɔ kuro no mu.
Ningĩ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rehe nguo ĩyo wĩigĩrĩire wanĩrĩrie.” Rĩrĩa eekire ũguo, Boazu agĩitĩrĩra ibaba ithathatũ cia cairi, akĩmũigĩrĩra. Nake Ruthu agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ.
16 Rut baa nʼase Naomi nkyɛn no, ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Me babaa, ɛkɔsii sɛn?” Rut kaa biribiara a Boas yɛ maa no kyerɛɛ Naomi,
Na rĩrĩa Ruthu aacookire kũrĩ nyaciarawe-rĩ, Naomi akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ wakwa, kũraathiire atĩa?” Nake akĩmwĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe Boazu aamwĩkĩire.
17 na ɔtoaa so sɛ, “Ɔmaa me atokoɔ susukora nsia kaa sɛ, ‘Mfa nsapan nkɔ wʼase nkyɛn.’”
Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ibaba ici ithathatũ cia cairi nĩwe ũũheire, na anjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Tiga kũinũkĩra nyaciaraguo moko matheri.’”
18 Afei, Naomi kaa sɛ, “Me ba, twɛn kɔsi sɛ wobɛhunu deɛ ɛbɛsi. Ɔbarima no renna so kɔsi sɛ ɔbɛwie dwumadie no. Ɔbɛma asi ɛnnɛ dua yi ara.”
Nake Naomi akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Eterera o ro ũguo, mwarĩ wakwa, nginya ũmenye ũrĩa ũhoro ũcio ũgũthiĩ, nĩgũkorwo mũndũ ũcio ndangĩhurũka nginya rĩrĩa aniine ũhoro ũcio ũmũthĩ.”
