Sambi dziloni andakala anapheha shayiri, hipho phatuphe pha kuwagira. Kpwa hivyo oga na udzipake mafuha ga kunukato na uvwale nguwo nono, halafu uphiye hipho awagirapho iyo shayiri. Ela uchifika phapho dzifwitse hadi amale kurya na kunwa. Ndiphounuka kpwendalala, phalole hipho ndiphodziambalaza. Achikala arere, phiya ukafwenule iyo nguwoye hipho phakpwe maguluni udziambalaze phapho. Naye ndipholamuka andakuambira ra kuhenda.” Ruthi achijibu achiamba, “Nindahenda kama uchivyonilagiza.”
Phahi Ruthi achiphiya phara Boazi awagirapho shayiri na achendahenda viratu arivyokala akalagizwa ni nine-vyala. Boazi ariphomala kurya na kunwa, wadzisikira ana raha mwakpwe moyoni. Phahi achendalala mwisho wa ndulu ya nyo mtsere. Ruthi wanyapa-nyapa na achiphiya achenda fwenula iyo nguwo uphande wa maguluni achidzilaza. Phofika usiku wa manane Boazi wavumbuluka achidzigaluza na ke! Mchetu arere phakpwe maguluni. Achiuza achiamba, “U ani we?” Achijibu achiamba, “Ni mimi Ruthi mtumishio, nakuvoya unibwiningize na nguwoyo* mana uwe u mʼbari wehu wa phephi uwezaye kunikombola.”
10 Achiamba, “Mayo Ruthi, Mwenyezi Mlungu naakujaliye. Hino ishima uchiyoonyesa sambi kpwa abari a mlumeo ikatsupa hira ya mwandzo ya higo urigomuhendera mayoo-vyala. Mana uwe kukashuulika kuendza barobaro tajiri au mchiya akulóle. 11 Usihende wasiwasi mwanangu. Chila mmwenga kpwenye mudzi wehu anamanya kukala u mwana mchetu asiye kasoro. Phahi mwanangu usiogophe, nindahenda gosi uchigoniambira. 12 +Ni kpweli kukala ni mʼbario na ninafwaha kukuroroma, ela phana mutu ambaye ni mʼbario sana hata kuriko mimi. 13 Kala hipha hadi kuche, kuchicha nindalola ichikala andahala hiro jukumu ra kukuroroma. Achihenda hivyo ni sawa, ichikala kandahenda hivyo, naapa kpwa Mwenyezi Mlungu ariye moyo kukala nindakuroroma. Ela vivi dziambalaze hipha hadi kuche.”
14 Phahi achidziambalaza hipho maguluni pha Boazi hadi kuchicha, ela achilamuka kuchere chimirimiri kpwa kukala Boazi kayalonda mutu yeyesi amanye kukala mchetu wakpwedza hipho. 15 Boazi achimuamba, “Bumula iyo nguwoyo uchiyodzifunga.” Na Ruthi achihenda hivyo naye Boazi achimtiira shayiri na achimhika. Ndipho Ruthi achiuya kaya. 16 Ariphofika kpwa nine-vyala wauzwa, “Gakaphiyadze mwanangu?” Ruthi achimuambira gosi ambago Boazi kala akamuhendera. 17 Achienjereza kuamba, “Akaniamba kukala nisiuye mikono mihuphu kpwa hivyo akanipha huno mzigo wa shayiri.” 18 Naomi achimuamba, “Godza mayo hadi umanye vira mambo ndivyokala mana hiye mtumia kandaoya hadi neno hiri arifise mwisho vi rero.”
