¹Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu tegey iriddii magaalada, oo halkaasuu fadhiistay; oo bal eeg waxaa ag yimid ninkii Bocas ka hadlay ee ahaa xigaalka uga dhow. Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, War, hebelow, soo leexo, oo bal kaalay, halkan fadhiiso. Kolkaasuu soo leexday oo fadhiistay.

¹And Boaz hath gone up to the gate, and sitteth there, and lo, the redeemer is passing by of whom Boaz had spoken, and he saith, `Turn aside, sit down here, such a one, such a one;` and he turneth aside and sitteth down.

²Markaasuu wuxuu soo kaxaystay toban nin oo odayaashii magaalada ah, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal halkan fadhiista, oo iyana way fadhiisteen.

²And he taketh ten men of the elders of the city, and saith, `Sit down here;` and they sit down.

³Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi ninkii xigaalka u dhow ahaa, Nimco oo ka soo noqotay waddankii reer Moo'aab ayaa iibinaysa jagadii dhulka ahayd ee uu lahaa walaalkeen Eliimeleg.

³And he saith to the redeemer, `A portion of the field which [is] to our brother, to Elimelech, hath Naomi sold, who hath come back from the fields of Moab;

⁴Oo waxay ila noqotay inaan ku ogeysiiyo inaad ku iibsato kuwa halkan fadhiya iyo odayaasha dadkayga hortooda. Haddaad doonaysid inaad iibsatid, iibso, laakiinse haddaanad doonaynin inaad iibsatid ii sheeg aan ogaadee, waayo, nin kaaga dhow oo iibsanaya ma jiro, oo anna adigaan kaa dambeeyaa. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waan iibsanayaa.

⁴and I said, I uncover thine ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people; if thou dost redeem — redeem, and if none doth redeem — declare to me, and I know, for there is none save thee to redeem, and I after thee.` And he saith, I redeem [it].`

⁵Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu yidhi, Maalintii aad Nimco gacanteeda beerta ka iibsatid, waa inaad Ruud tii reer Moo'aabna ka iibsataa, taasoo ah naagtii kii dhintay, inaad kii dhintay magiciisii ku soo celisid dhulkii dhaxalkiisa ahaa.

⁵And Boaz saith, `In the day of thy buying the field from the hand of Naomi, then from Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, thou hast bought [it], to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance.`

⁶Markaasaa ninkii xigaalka u dhow ahaa wuxuu yidhi, Anigu taas ma iibsan karo, waayo, waaba intaasoo aan dhaxalkayga halleeyaa; haddaba adigu qaado xaqii aan iibsashada u lahaa, maxaa yeelay, anigu ma aan iibsan karo.

⁶And the redeemer saith, `I am not able to redeem [it] for myself, lest I destroy mine inheritance; redeem for thyself — thou — my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem.`

⁷Oo haddaba waagii hore reer binu Israa'iil dhexdooda caadadii ku saabsanayd kala iibsashada iyo kala beddelashada waxay ahayd in nin kabtiisa iska siibo oo uu deriskiisa u dhiibo in wax walba la sii adkeeyo aawadeed. Taasu waxay reer binu Israa'iil u ahayd sida loo markhaati furo.

⁷And this [is] formerly in Israel for redemption and for changing, to establish anything: a man hath drawn off his sandal, and given [it] to his neighbour, and this [is] the testimony in Israel.

⁸Sidaas daraaddeed ninkii xigaalka u dhow ahaa wuxuu Bocas ku yidhi, Adigu soo iibso. Markaasuu kabtiisii iska siibay.

⁸And the redeemer saith to Boaz, `Buy [it] for thyself,` and draweth off his sandal.

⁹Markaasaa Bocas wuxuu ku yidhi odayaashii iyo dadkii oo dhanba, Bal idinku maanta markhaatiyaal baad ka tihiin inaan Nimco gacanteeda ka iibsaday kulli wixii Eliimeleg lahaa oo dhan, iyo kulli wixii Kilyoon iyo Maxloon lahaayeen oo dhan.

⁹And Boaz saith to the elders, and [to] all the people, `Witnesses [are] ye to-day that I have bought all that [is] to Elimelech, and all that [is] to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi;

¹⁰Oo weliba Ruud tii reer Moo'aab oo ahayd naagtii Maxloonna waxaan u iibsaday inay naagtaydii ahaato ee aan kii dhintay magiciisii u soo celiyo dhulkii uu dhaxalka u lahaa, si uusan kii dhintay magiciisii uga go'in walaalihiis dhexdooda iyo iriddii meeshiisa; idinku markhaatiyaal baad ka tihiin.

¹⁰and also Ruth the Moabitess, wife of Mahlon, I have bought to myself for a wife, to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance; and the name of the dead is not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place; witnesses ye [are] to-day.`

¹¹Markaasaa dadkii iridda joogay oo dhan iyo odayaashiiba waxay yidhaahdeen, Markhaatiyaal baannu ka nahay. Naagta gurigaaga soo gashay Rabbigu ha ka dhigo sidii Raaxeel iyo Lee'ah, labadaas oo ahaa kuwii dhisay reerkii Israa'iil; oo adna Efraataah ku barwaaqow, Beytlaxamna caan ku ahow.

¹¹And all the people who [are] in the gate say — also the elders — `Witnesses! Jehovah make the woman who is coming in unto thy house as Rachel and as Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and do thou virtuously in Ephrathah, and proclaim the Name in Beth-Lehem;

¹²Oo farcanka Rabbigu kaa siin doono naagtan dhallintayar reerkaagu ha ku noqdo sidii reerkii Feres, kaasoo ahaa kii Taamaar u dhashay Yahuudah.

¹²and let thy house be as the house of Pharez (whom Tamar bare to Judah), of the seed which Jehovah doth give to thee of this young woman.`

¹³Markaasuu Bocas kaxaystay Ruud, oo iyana waxay noqotay naagtiisii; kolkaasuu iyadii u tegey, oo Rabbiguna wuxuu iyadii siiyey uur oo waxay dhashay wiil.

¹³And Boaz taketh Ruth, and she becometh his wife, and he goeth in unto her, and Jehovah giveth to her conception, and she beareth a son.

¹⁴Markaasaa dumarkii waxay Nimco ku yidhaahdeen, Mahad waxaa leh Rabbiga aan maanta xigaalla'aan ku dhigin, oo magiciisuna reer binu Israa'iil caan ha ku dhex ahaado.

¹⁴And the women say unto Naomi, `Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not let a redeemer cease to thee to-day, and his name is proclaimed in Israel,

¹⁵Oo isna wuxuu kuu noqon doonaa naf-sooceliye iyo ku markaad gabowdo ku quudiya. Waayo, waxaa isaga kuu dhashay gabadhii aad soddohda u ahayd ee ku jeclayd, ee kaaga sii wanaagsan toddoba wiil.

¹⁵and he hath been to thee for a restorer of life, and for a nourisher of thine old age, for thy daughter-in-law who hath loved thee — who is better to thee than seven sons — hath borne him.`

¹⁶Markaasaa Nimco wiilkii qaadday oo laabta ku jiifisay, oo waxay u noqotay tu xannaanaysa.

¹⁶And Naomi taketh the lad, and layeth him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse;

¹⁷Markaasaa dumarkii deriska u ahaa magac u bixiyeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Wiil baa u dhashay Nimco, oo magiciisiina waxay u bixiyeen Coobeed; oo isagu waa Yesay aabbihiis, kii Daa'uud dhalay.

¹⁷and the neighbouring women give to him a name, saying, `There hath been a son born to Naomi,` and they call his name Obed; he [is] father of Jesse, father of David.

¹⁸Haddaba kuwanu waa abtirsiinyadii Feres. Feres wuxuu dhalay Xesroon;

¹⁸And these are genealogies of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron,

¹⁹Xesroonna wuxuu dhalay Raam, Raamna wuxuu dhalay Cammiinaadaab;

¹⁹and Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminidab,

²⁰Cammiinaadaabna wuxuu dhalay Naxshoon, Naxshoonna wuxuu dhalay Salmoon;

²⁰and Amminidab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,

²¹Salmoonna wuxuu dhalay Bocas, Bocasna wuxuu dhalay Coobeed;Coobeedna wuxuu dhalay Yesay, Yesayna wuxuu dhalay Daa'uud.

²¹and Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,

²²Coobeedna wuxuu dhalay Yesay, Yesayna wuxuu dhalay Daa'uud.

²²and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
