1 M arkaasaa 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.

Then Boaz went up to the city’s gate and sat down there, and behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz had spoken came by. He said to him, Ho! Turn aside and sit down here. So he turned aside and sat down.

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

And Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city and said, Sit down here. And they sat down.

3 M arkaasuu 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.

And he said to the kinsman, Naomi, who has returned from the country of Moab, has sold the parcel of land which belonged to our brother Elimelech.

4 O o 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.

And I thought to let you hear of it, saying, Buy it in the presence of those sitting here and before the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then say so, that I may know; for there is no one besides you to redeem it, and I am after you. And he said, I will redeem it.

5 M arkaasaa 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.

Then Boaz said, The day you buy the field of Naomi, you must buy also Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of the dead man, to restore the name of the dead to his inheritance.

6 M arkaasaa 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.

And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption yourself, for I cannot redeem it.

7 O o 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.

Now formerly in Israel this was the custom concerning redeeming and exchanging. To confirm a transaction, a man pulled off his sandal and gave it to the other. This was the way of attesting in Israel.

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

Therefore, when the kinsman said to Boaz, Buy it for yourself, he pulled off his sandal.

9 M arkaasaa 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.

And Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, You are witnesses this day that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s from the hand of Naomi.

10 O o 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.

Also Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, I have bought to be my wife to restore the name of the dead to his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren and from the gate of his birthplace. You are witnesses this day.

11 M arkaasaa 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.

And all the people at the gate and the elders said, We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your house like Rachel and Leah, the two who built the household of Israel. May you do worthily and get wealth (power) in Ephratah and be famous in Bethlehem.

12 O o farcanka Rabbigu kaa siin doono naagtan dhallintayar reerkaagu ha ku noqdo sidii reerkii Feres, kaasoo ahaa kii Taamaar u dhashay Yahuudah. Abtirsiinadii Daa'uud

And let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring which the Lord will give you by this young woman.

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

So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. And he went in to her, and the Lord caused her to conceive, and she bore a son.

14 M arkaasaa 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.

And the women said to Naomi, Blessed be the Lord, Who has not left you this day without a close kinsman, and may his name be famous in Israel.

15 O o 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.

And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher and supporter in your old age, for your daughter-in-law who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has borne him.

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

Then Naomi took the child and laid him in her bosom and became his nurse.

17 M arkaasaa 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.

And her neighbor women gave him a name, saying, A son is born to Naomi. They named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David.

18 H addaba kuwanu waa abtirsiinyadii Feres. Feres wuxuu dhalay Xesroon;

Now these are the descendants of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,

19 X esroonna wuxuu dhalay Raam, Raamna wuxuu dhalay Cammiinaadaab;

Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab,

20 C ammiinaadaabna wuxuu dhalay Naxshoon, Naxshoonna wuxuu dhalay Salmoon;

Amminadab of Nahshon, Nahshon of Salmon,

21 S almoonna wuxuu dhalay Bocas, Bocasna wuxuu dhalay Coobeed;

Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed,

22 C oobeedna wuxuu dhalay Yesay, Yesayna wuxuu dhalay Daa'uud.

Obed of Jesse, and Jesse of David.
