¹UNawomi wayenesihlobo somyeni wakhe, indoda enamandla aphilileyo, esomndeni ka-Elimeleki; igama lakhe lalinguBhowazi.

²URuthe umMowabi wasesithi kuNawomi: Ake ngiye elizweni, ngikhothoze emva kwalowo engizathola umusa emehlweni akhe. Wathi kuye: “Hamba, ndodakazi yami;

³Wahamba wafika wadobha ensimini ngemva kwabavuni;

⁴Bheka, uBhowazi wafika evela eBetlehema, wathi kubavuni: “UJehova makabe nani. Zathi kuye: “UJehova makakubusise;

⁵UBhowazi wayesethi encekwini yakhe ephethe abavuni: “Ngekabani le ntokazi na?

⁶Inceku eyayimiswe phezu kwabavuni yaphendula yathi: “Le yintombi yakwaMowabi eyabuya noNawomi ezweni lakwaMowabi.”

⁷Yathi: Ake ngicoshe, ngibuthe emva kwabavuni phansi kwezithungu; wafika wahlala kusukela ekuseni kwaze kwaba manje, wahlala kancane endlini.

⁸UBhowazi wasesithi kuRuthe: Uyezwa yini, ndodakazi yami? Ungayi ukuyokwakha kwelinye izwe, futhi ungasuki lapha, kodwa hlala lapha nezincekukazi zami.

⁹Amehlo akho mawabe sezweni abalivunayo, ubalandele; Angiziyalanga yini izinsizwa ukuba zingakuthinteli na? uma womile, hamba uye ezitsheni, uphuze okudotshwe yizinsizwa.

¹⁰Wawa ngobuso bakhe, wakhothamela emhlabathini, wathi kuye: “Ngitholeni umusa emehlweni akho ukuba ungangazi, lokhu ngingowezizwe na?”

¹¹UBhowazi waphendula, wathi kuye: “Sekubonakalisiwe kimi ngokugcwele konke okwenzile kunyokozala selokhu kwafa umyeni wakho, nokuthi washiya kanjani uyihlo nonyoko nezwe lokuzalwa kwakho, futhi wafika kubantu owawungabazi ngaphambili.

¹²UJehova makakuvuze ngomsebenzi wakho, umvuzo opheleleyo uphiwe nguJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, othembele phansi kwamaphiko akhe.

¹³Wathi: “Mangithole umusa emehlweni akho, nkosi yami; ngokuba ungiduduzile, wakhuluma kahle kuyo incekukazi yakho, nakuba ngingenjengenye yezincekukazi zakho.

¹⁴UBhowazi wathi kuye: “Woza lapha ngesikhathi sokudla, udle isinkwa, ugcobhoze ucezu lwakho kuviniga.” Wahlala phansi eduze kwabavuni, wafika kuye amabele akhanyiwe, wadla, wasutha, wahamba.

¹⁵Esesukuma ukukhothoza, uBhowazi walaya izinsizwa zakhe, wathi: “Myekeni akhothoze naphakathi kwezithungu, ningamkhuzi.”

¹⁶Futhi-ke ezinye zezandla zabangamabomu maziwele kuye, zizishiye, ukuze azicoshe futhi angamkhuzi.

¹⁷Wakhothoza ensimini kwaze kwahlwa, wabhula ayekukhothozile, kwaba yi-efa lebhali.

¹⁸Wakuthatha, waya emzini, uninazala wakubona abekuthathile;

¹⁹Uninazala wathi kuye: “Uthathephi namuhla na?” kanti ubusebenza kuphi? ubusisiwe okunakile. Wasemtshela uninazala lowo asebenza kuye, wathi: Ibizo lendoda engisebenze layo lamuhla nguBhowazi;

²⁰UNawomi wathi kumalokazana wakhe: “Makabusiswe lowo kuJehova ongayekanga umusa wakhe kwabaphilayo nakwabafileyo. UNawomi wathi kuye: “Lo muntu useduze nathi, omunye wegazi lethu.”

²¹URuthe wakwaMowabi wathi: “Naye wathi kimi: ‘Kumelwe ubambelele ezinsizweni zami zize ziqede zonke isivuno sami.’

²²UNawomi wayesethi kuRuthe umalokazana wakhe: “Kuhle, ndodakazi yami, ukuba uphume nezincekukazi zakhe, funa bahlangane nawe kwenye insimu.

²³Ngakho wanamathela emadodakazini kaBowazi ukukhothoza, kwaze kwaba sekupheleni kokuvunwa kwebhali nokuvunwa kukakolweni; wahlala noninazala.
