Ruth

4

1Then went Boaz up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz spake came by; unto whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.
1 A go mo, Buwaza koy birno me gaa ka goro. Kala dumo kaŋ ga maan a, nga kaŋ Buwaza ci din go, a kaa ka bisa. Buwaza ne a se: «He, waane filaana! Gana ka kaa neewo ka goro.» A binde gana ka kaa ka goro.
2And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit ye down here. And they sat down.
2 Buwaza kande kwaara arkusu beeri way ka ne: «Wa goro ne.» I goro.
3And he said unto the kinsman, Naomi, that is come again out of the country of Moab, selleth a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech's:
3 A ye ka ne dumi maananta se: «Neyomi neeya kaŋ kaa ka fun Mowab laabu. A go mo, a ga laabo jare fo neera, kaŋ ga ti iri nya-izo Elimelek wane.
4And I thought to advertise thee, saying, Buy it before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem it: but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know: for there is none to redeem it beside thee; and I am after thee. And he said, I will redeem it.
4 Ay mo saaware ka ne ay g'a cabe ni se. Ni m'a day borey kaŋ goono ga goro yaŋ jine, ay borey arkusey jine nooya. Da ni g'a fansa*, m'a fansa. Amma da ni s'a fansa, kulu ma ci ay se, ay ma du ka bay, zama fansako* fo si no kala nin, ni banda mo, kala ay.» Bora din ne: «Ay g'a fansa.»
5Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.
5 Gaa no Buwaza ne: «To, han kaŋ hane ni ga faro day Neyomi gaa, kala ni m'a day Ruta, Mowabancey ize wayo kambe ra, buukwa wane, zama i ma buukwa maa tunandi a tubo boŋ.»
6And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I mar mine own inheritance: redeem thou my right to thyself; for I cannot redeem it.
6 Dumo kaŋ ga maan din binde ne: «Ay si hin k'a fansa* ay boŋ se, zama ya s'ay tubo sara. Ay diyaŋ gaa a ga hagu ni m'a sambu ni boŋ se k'a fansa, zama ay wo si hin k'a fansa.»
7Now this was the manner in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning changing, for to confirm all things; a man plucked off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbor: and this was a testimony in Israel.
7 Woone alaada no za doŋ Israyla ra, fansayaŋ sanni da barmayyaŋ boŋ, zama i ma hay kulu tabbatandi: kala boro ma nga taamu foobu k'a no boro fa din se. Woodin no ga ti mate kaŋ i ga fansa seeda nd'a Israyla ra doŋ.
8Therefore the kinsman said unto Boaz, Buy it for thee. So he drew off his shoe.
8 Kala dumo kaŋ ga maan din ne Buwaza se: «A day ni boŋ se.» A na nga taamu foobu ka kaa mo.
9And Boaz said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's, of the hand of Naomi.
9 Buwaza ne arkusey da jama kulu se: «Araŋ ga ti seedayaŋ hunkuna. Hay kulu kaŋ ga ti Elimelek wane da Cilon wane da Malon wane, ay n'i day Neyomi kambe ra.
10Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day.
10 Ay du Malon wande mo, Ruta, Mowabancey ize wayo, a ma ciya ay wande, zama i ma buukwa maa tunandi a tubo banda, zama buukwa maa ma si daray a nya-izey ra, d'a kwaara meyo gaa mo. Araŋ ya seedayaŋ no hunkuna.»
11And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that is come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Bethlehem:
11 Borey kulu kaŋ yaŋ go kwaara meyo do, da arkusey mo ne: «Iri ya seedayaŋ no. Waybora, d'a kaa ni kwaara, Rabbi m'a te danga Rahila da Laya cine, i boro hinka, kaŋ yaŋ na Israyla dumo cina. Ni mo ma du arzaka Efrata ra. Ni ma te maa mo Baytlahami ra.
12And let thy house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bare unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this young woman.
12 Ni windo mo ma te danga Farisa dumo cine, nga kaŋ Tamar hay Yahuda se, kunda ra kaŋ Rabbi ga ni no wayboro wo do.»
13So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.
13 Buwaza binde na Ruta sambu ka te nga wande, a margu nd'a mo. Rabbi naŋ mo a ma te gunde, a hay ize aru.
14And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel.
14 Wayborey ne Neyomi se: «Sifayaŋ ma te Rabbi se, nga kaŋ mana ni naŋ hunkuna dumi kaŋ ga maan nin si. Israyla kulu ra i m'a maa bay.
15And he shall be unto thee a restorer of thy life, and a nourisher of thine old age: for thy daughter in law, which loveth thee, which is better to thee than seven sons, hath born him.
15 A ga te ni se fundi yeeko, ni zeena kuruko mo, zama ni anzura kaŋ ga ba nin din, kaŋ bisa ize iyye ni se, a hay.»
16And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse unto it.
16 Neyomi na koociya sambu k'a ganday nga ganda ra ka te a se saajawko.
17And the women her neighbors gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi; and they called his name Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
17 Neyomi gorokasin wayborey na maa daŋ koociya ga ka ne: «I na ize aru hay Neyomi se.» I ne a se Obida, nga ga ti Yasse baaba, Dawda kaay.
18Now these are the generations of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron,
18 Farisa banda neeya: Farisa na Hezron hay,
19And Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminadab,
19 Hezron na Ram hay, Ram na Aminadab hay,
20And Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,
20 Aminadab na Naason hay, Naason na Salmon hay,
21And Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
21 Salmon na Buwaza hay, Buwaza na Obida hay,
22And Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
22 Obida na Yasse hay, Yasse na Dawda hay.
