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.
UBhowazi wasesenyukela esangweni, wahlala phansi lapho. Khangela-ke, kwedlula isihlobo esingumhlengi leso uBhowazi ayekhulume ngaso. Wasesithi: Phambuka uhlale phansi lapha, we zibanibani. Wasephambuka, wahlala phansi.
2 Na Boas frɛɛ kuro no mu ntuanofoɔ edu sɛ wɔmmɛtena ase sɛ adansefoɔ.
Wasethatha amadoda alitshumi ebadaleni bomuzi, wathi: Hlalani phansi lapha. Asehlala phansi.
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 kulesosihlobo esingumhlengi: Isiqinti sensimu esasingesomfowethu uElimeleki, uyasithengisa uNawomi, osebuyile evela elizweni lakoMowabi.
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.”
Ngakho mina ngithe: Ngikwembule endlebeni yakho ngisithi: Sithenge phambi kwabahlali laphambi kwabadala babantu bakithi. Uba uzasihlenga, sihlenge. Kodwa uba engekho ongasihlenga, ungitshele, ukuze ngazi; ngoba engekho ngaphandle kwakho ongasihlenga, mina-ke ngilandela wena. Wasesithi: Mina 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 insimu esandleni sikaNawomi, uzayithenga lakuRuthe umMowabikazi, umfazi womuyi, ukuze umise ibizo lomuyi elifeni lakhe.
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.”
Lesosihlobo esingumhlengi sasesisithi: Ngingeke ngazihlengela sona, hlezi ngone ilifa lami. Zihlengele wena ilungelo lami lokuhlenga, ngoba kangilamandla okuhlenga.
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.
Lokhu-ke kwakukhona mandulo koIsrayeli mayelana lokuhlenga lokuntshintsha, ukuqinisa lonke udaba: umuntu akhiphe inyathela lakhe, alinike umakhelwane wakhe; lokhu-ke kwakuyibufakazi koIsrayeli.
8 Enti, abusua gyefoɔ nimpɔn no worɔɔ ne mpaboa ka kyerɛɛ Boas sɛ, “Wo ara tɔ asase no.”
Ngakho isihlobo esingumhlengi sathi kuBhowazi: Zithengele yona; sasesikhipha inyathela laso.
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 wasesithi kubadala lakubo bonke abantu: Lingabafakazi lamuhla bokuthi ngithengile konke okwakungokukaElimeleki lakho konke okwakungokukaKiliyoni lokukaMaheloni esandleni sikaNawomi.
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 laye umMowabikazi, umkaMaheloni, ngizithengele ukuze abe ngumkami, ukuze ngimise ibizo likamuyi elifeni lakhe, ukuze ibizo lomuyi lingaqunywa lisuke phakathi kwabafowabo lesangweni lendawo yakhe. Lingabafakazi lamuhla.
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.
Bonke abantu ababesesangweni labadala basebesithi: Singabafakazi; kungathi iNkosi ingamenza lo owesifazana ongena endlini yakho abe njengoRasheli lanjengoLeya abakha bobabili indlu kaIsrayeli. Njalo wenze ngamandla eEfratha, uzenzele ibizo eBhethelehema,
12 Na Awurade mfa ababaawa yi so mma wo asefoɔ a wɔbɛyɛ sɛ yɛn agya Peres a ɔyɛ Tamar ne Yuda babarima no.”
lendlu yakho ibe njengendlu kaPerezi uTamari amzalela uJuda, ngenzalo iNkosi ezakunika yona ngalo owesifazana omutsha.
13 Enti, Boas waree Rut de no kɔɔ ne fie. Afei, ɔkɔɔ ne ho na Awurade ma ɔnyinsɛnee na ɔwoo ɔbabarima.
Ngakho uBhowazi wamthatha uRuthe, waba ngumkakhe; wasengena kuye, iNkosi yamnika ukuthi athathe isisu, wazala 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.
Abesifazana basebesithi kuNawomi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi engakutshiyanga ungelaso isihlobo esingumhlengi lamuhla, ukuthi ibizo laso limenyezelwe koIsrayeli!
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.”
Uzakuba kuwe ngumbuyisi wempilo lomondli wobudala bakho, ngoba umzele umalokazana wakho okuthandayo, ongcono kuwe kulamadodana ayisikhombisa.
16 Na Naomi faa akɔkoaa no, na ɔhwɛɛ no te sɛ ɔno ankasa yafunu ba.
UNawomi wasemthatha umntwana, wamfaka esifubeni sakhe, waba ngumlizane wakhe.
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.
Omakhelwanekazi basebemutha ibizo besithi: Kulendodana ezalelwe uNawomi. Babiza ibizo layo uObedi; nguyise kaJese, uyise kaDavida.
18 Tete agya Peres awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ nie: Peres woo Hesron.
Lalezi yizizukulwana zikaPerezi. UPerezi wazala uHezironi,
19 Hesron woo Ram, ɛnna Ram woo Aminadab.
uHezironi wasezala uRamu, uRamu wasezala uAminadaba,
20 Aminadab woo Nahson, ɛnna Nahson woo Salmon.
uAminadaba wasezala uNashoni, uNashoni wasezala uSalimoni,
21 Salmon woo Boas, ɛnna Boas woo Obed.
uSalimoni wasezala uBhowazi, uBhowazi wasezala uObedi,
22 Obed woo Yisai, ɛnna Yisai woo Dawid.
uObedi wasezala uJese, uJese wasezala uDavida.
