Rut 4
1 Boas kɔɔ kuro no ɛpono ano kɔtenaa ase wɔ hɔ. Ɛberɛ a obusuani gyefoɔ nimpɔn a ɔkaa ne ho asɛm no baa hɔ no, Boas frɛɛ no kaa sɛ, “Mʼadamfo, mesrɛ wo bra na mepɛ sɛ me ne wo twetwe nkɔmmɔ.” Enti, wɔtenaa ase.
Kusenjalo uBhowazi waya esangweni ledolobho wahlala lapho. Kwathi isihlobo esihlengayo ayekhulume ngaso sisedlula lapho, uBhowazi wathi, “Woza lapha mngane wami, uhlale phansi.” Waya kuye wahlala phansi.
2 Na Boas frɛɛ kuro no mu ntuanofoɔ edu sɛ wɔmmɛtena ase sɛ adansefoɔ.
UBhowazi wabiza abadala bakulelodolobho abalitshumi wathi, “Hlalani lapha,” benza njalo.
3 Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ obusuani gyefoɔ nimpɔn no sɛ, “Wonim Naomi a ɔfiri Moab baeɛ no. Ɔretɔn asase a na ɛyɛ yɛn busuani Elimelek dea no.
Wasesithi esihlotsheni esihlengayo, “UNawomi osebuyile evela eMowabi uthengisa isiqinti esasingesomnewethu u-Elimeleki.
4 Mesusu 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 adansefoɔ yi anim. Na sɛ wompɛ nso a, ma mente no seesei ara, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ woantumi annye a, me ne onipa a medi wʼakyi wɔ abusua no mu a ɛsɛ sɛ megye.” Na ɔbarima no buaa sɛ, “Mɛgye.”
Ngibone kufanele ukuthi ngilethe loludaba kuwe njalo ngicebise ukuthi usithenge phambi kwabo laba abahlezi lapha laphambi kwabadala bakithi. Nxa usihlenga, yenza njalo. Kodwa nxa ungasihlengi ungazise. Phela kakho olelungelo lokwenza lokho ngaphandle kwakho, besekulandela mina.” Yena wathi, “Ngizasihlenga.”
5 Afei, Boas ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɛ wotɔ asase no firi Naomi nkyɛn a, na ɛsɛ sɛ woware Moabni okunafoɔ Rut no. Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbɛwo mma a ne kunu din bɛda wɔn so na asase no bɛtena abusua no mu.”
UBhowazi wasesithi, “Mhla uthenga umhlabathi kuNawomi loRuthe umʼMowabi, uzazuza lomfelokazi womufi, ukuze umise ibizo lomufi kanye lempahla yakhe.”
6 Ɛhɔ ara na abusua mu gyefoɔ nimpɔn no kaa sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ merentumi ntɔ asase no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛbɛha mʼagyapadeɛ. Tɔ asase no na merentumi ntɔ.”
Sikuzwa lokho, isihlobo esingumhlengi sathi, “Angingeke-ke ngisihlenge ngoba sekungonakala okwelifa lami. Sihlenge wena ngokwakho. Mina anganelisi.”
7 Saa ɛberɛ no, na ɛyɛ Israel amanneɛ sɛ, sɛ obiara redane nʼadeɛ bi a watɔ no ɛkwan pa so ama obi foforɔ a, ɔworɔ ne mpaboa de ma ɔtɔfoɔ no. Wɔyɛ saa wɔ badwa mu de hyɛ adetɔ no mu den.
(Ngalezonsuku zakuqala ko-Israyeli, ukuze umkhuba wokuhlenga impahla zisuka komunye zisiya komunye uphelele, oyedwa wayekhupha inyathela lakhe aliphe omunye. Le yayiyindlela yokuqinisa isivumelwano ko-Israyeli.)
8 Enti, abusua gyefoɔ nimpɔn no worɔɔ ne mpaboa ka kyerɛɛ Boas sɛ, “Wo ara tɔ asase no.”
Ngakho isihlobo esihlengayo sakhupha inyathela laso sathi kuBhowazi, “Sithenge wena.”
9 Na Boas ka kyerɛɛ ɔman no ntuanofoɔ no ne ɛdɔm a wɔatwa ahyia hɔ no sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ matɔ Elimelek, Kilion ne Mahlon agyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ Naomi nsam, na moyɛ ɛho adansefoɔ.
UBhowazi wasebika ebadaleni lakubo bonke abantu wathi, “Lamhlanje lingofakazi bokuthi sengithengile kuNawomi yonke impahla ka-Elimeleki, loKhiliyoni loMaheloni.
10 Menam asase no tɔ so afa Rut a ɔyɛ Moabni a ɔyɛ Mahlon kunafoɔ no sɛ me yere. Ɛno enti, sɛ ɔwo ɔbabarima a, ɔbɛfa ne kunu a wawu no abusua din na wafa abusua agyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ ne kurom ha nso. Ɛnnɛ, mo nyinaa moyɛ adansefoɔ.”
LoRuthe umʼMowabi, umfelokazi kaMaheloni sengimzuzile ukuba abe ngumkami, ukuze kugcinakale ibizo lomufi kanye lempahla yakhe, lokuze ibizo lakhe linganyamalali emulini loba embalini yomuzi. Lingofakazi lamhlanje!”
11 Afei, ntuanofoɔ no ne ɔmanfoɔ no nyinaa sɔre gyinaeɛ kaa sɛ, “Yɛyɛ adansefoɔ! Awurade mmoa mma ɔbaa a afei na ɔreba wo fie no nyɛ sɛ Rahel ne Lea a wɔn mu na Israel aman nyinaa firi no. Wobɛyɛ kɛse wɔ Efrata na woagye edin wɔ Betlehem.
Abadala kanye labo bonke ababesesangweni bathi, “Singofakazi. Sengathi uThixo angenza owesifazane ozayo emzini wakho abe njengoRasheli loLeya, abayakhayo indlu ka-Israyeli bendawonye. Sengathi ungahlonitshwa e-Efrathi ube lodumo eBhethilehema.
12 Na Awurade mfa ababaawa yi so mma wo asefoɔ a wɔbɛyɛ sɛ yɛn agya Peres a ɔyɛ Tamar ne Yuda babarima no.”
Ngenzalo uThixo azakunika yona ngalo owesifazane, sengathi imuli yakho ingaba njengekaPherezi, uThamari ayizalela uJuda.”
13 Enti, Boas waree Rut de no kɔɔ ne fie. Afei, ɔkɔɔ ne ho na Awurade ma ɔnyinsɛnee na ɔwoo ɔbabarima.
UBhowazi wamthatha uRuthe waba ngumkakhe. Wembatha laye, uThixo wenza wakhulelwa, wasezala indodana.
14 Na kuro no mu mmaa ka kyerɛɛ Naomi sɛ, “Animuonyam nka Awurade sɛ ɛnnɛ ɛda yi, wama woanya abusua gyefoɔ! Ɔmmɛyɛ okunini wɔ Israel.
Abesifazane bathi kuNawomi, “Kadunyiswe uThixo, yena ongakutshiyanga wasala ungelasihlobo esihlengayo. Sengathi angaba lodumo kulolonke elako-Israyeli!
15 Akokoaa yi mma wo nsi wo mmabaawaberɛ mu na ɔnhwɛ wo wɔ wo mmerewabɔ mu. Ɛfiri sɛ ɔyɛ wʼase a ɔdɔ wo na ɔsene mmammarima nson ma wo no babarima.”
Uzakwenza impilo yakho ibentsha, akulondoloze ebudaleni bakho. Ngoba umalukazana wakho, yena okuthandayo njalo ongcono kulamadodana ayisikhombisa, usemuphe inzalo.”
16 Na Naomi faa akɔkoaa no, na ɔhwɛɛ no te sɛ ɔno ankasa yafunu ba.
UNawomi wasethatha umntwana, wamanga, wamondla.
17 Na mmaa a wɔne no bɔ fipam kaa sɛ, “Afei deɛ Naomi anya ɔbabarima bio.” Na wɔtoo no din Obed. Ɔno na ɔbɛyɛɛ Yisai agya ne Dawid nana.
Abesifazane ababehlala lapho bathi, “UNawomi uselendodana.” Bamutha ibizo bathi ngu-Obhedi. Nguye owaba nguyise kaJese, uyise kaDavida.
18 Tete agya Peres awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nie: Peres woo Hesron.
Lesi yiso isizukulwane sikaPherezi: uPherezi wayenguyise kaHezironi,
19 Hesron woo Ram, ɛnna Ram woo Aminadab.
uHezironi enguyise kaRamu, uRamu enguyise ka-Aminadabi,
20 Aminadab woo Nahson, ɛnna Nahson woo Salmon.
u-Aminadabi enguyise kaNahashoni, uNahashoni enguyise kaSalimoni,
21 Salmon woo Boas, ɛnna Boas woo Obed.
uSalimoni enguyise kaBhowazi, uBhowazi enguyise ka-Obhedi,
22 Obed woo Yisai, ɛnna Yisai woo Dawid.
u-Obhedi enguyise kaJese, uJese enguyise kaDavida.
