Luusi mu Gguuliro lya Bowaazi
3 (A)Awo Nawomi nnyazaala wa Luusi n’amugamba nti, “Lwaki sikunoonyeza maka ag’okubeeramu, bakulabiririre eyo? 2 (B)Ewa Bowaazi gy’obadde n’abaweereza be abawala, ye muganda waffe. Kale, ekiro kya leero ajja kuba ng’awewa sayiri mu gguuliro. 3 (C)Kale naaba osaabe obuwoowo, era oyambale engoye zo ezisinga obulungi. Oluvannyuma oserengete mu gguuliro[a]; naye tomuganya kumanya nti wooli, okutuusa ng’amaze okulya n’okunywa. 4 Oluvannyuma ng’agalamiddeko wansi, weetegereze ekifo w’agalamidde, ogende obikkule ku bigere bye emirannamiro, naawe ogalamire awo; anaakubuulira eky’okukola.”
5 (D)Awo Luusi n’amugamba nti, “Nzija kukola nga bw’ondagidde.” 6 N’aserengeta mu gguuliro, n’akola byonna nga nnyazaala we bwe yamulagira.
7 (E)Awo Bowaazi bwe yamala okulya n’okunywa, era nga musanyufu, n’agenda n’agalamira ku mabbali g’entuumo ye ŋŋaano. Luusi naye n’asooba mpola mpola, n’abikkula ku bigere bye, n’agalamira awo kumpi naye. 8 Ekiro mu ttumbi, Bowaazi ne yeekanga, bwe yeekyusa n’alaba omukazi agalamidde kumpi n’ebigere bye.
9 (F)N’amubuuza nti, “Ggwe ani?” Luusi n’addamu nti, “Nze Luusi omuweereza wo. Mbikkaako ku lugoye lwo kubanga oli mununuzi wa kika[b].” 10 Bowaazi n’amuddamu nti, “Mukama Katonda akuwe omukisa muwala ggwe, olw’ekisa ekinene kyondaze okusinga eky’olubereberye, kubanga togenze wa bavubuka, abagagga oba abaavu. 11 (G)Kaakano, muwala ggwe, totya. Nzija kukukolera buli kintu kyonna ky’onoosaba. Abantu bange bonna ab’omu kibuga, bamanyi ng’oli mukazi mwegendereza. 12 (H)Kya mazima ddala ndi mununuzi wo, naye waliwo ansingako. 13 (I)Beera wano okutuusa obudde lwe bunaakya. Kale bw’anaayagala okukutwala, kinaaba kirungi; naye bw’anaaba nga tasiimye, Mukama Katonda nga bw’ali omulamu, nnaakutwala.”
14 (J)N’agalamira kumpi n’ebigere bye okutuusa enkeera, naye n’agolokoka nga tebunnalaba addeyo eka. Naye Bowaazi n’amukuutira nti, “Kireme okumanyibwa nti omukazi yazzeeko mu gguuliro.” 15 Era n’amugamba aleete omunagiro gw’ayambadde; n’agukwata, n’amugerera ebigero mukaaga ebya sayiri, n’abimutikka, oluvannyuma Luusi n’addayo mu kibuga.
16 Bwe yatuuka eri nnyazaala we, Nawomi n’amubuuza nti, “Byagenze bitya muwala wange?” N’amubuulira ebintu byonna Bowaazi bye yamukoledde, 17 era n’ayongerako nti, “Yampadde ebigero bino omukaaga ebya sayiri, n’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Toddayo wa nnyazaala wo ngalo nsa.’ ”
18 (K)Nawomi n’amugamba nti, “Gumiikiriza, muwala wange, olabe ebigambo gye binakkira, kubanga leero omusajja oyo tajja kuwummula okutuusa ensonga eyo lw’anagimala.”

Ruth and Boaz at the Threshing Floor
3 One day Ruth’s mother-in-law Naomi(A) said to her, “My daughter, I must find a home[a](B) for you, where you will be well provided for. 2 Now Boaz, with whose women you have worked, is a relative(C) of ours. Tonight he will be winnowing barley on the threshing floor.(D) 3 Wash,(E) put on perfume,(F) and get dressed in your best clothes.(G) Then go down to the threshing floor, but don’t let him know you are there until he has finished eating and drinking.(H) 4 When he lies down, note the place where he is lying. Then go and uncover his feet and lie down. He will tell you what to do.”
5 “I will do whatever you say,”(I) Ruth answered. 6 So she went down to the threshing floor(J) and did everything her mother-in-law told her to do.
7 When Boaz had finished eating and drinking and was in good spirits,(K) he went over to lie down at the far end of the grain pile.(L) Ruth approached quietly, uncovered his feet and lay down. 8 In the middle of the night something startled the man; he turned—and there was a woman lying at his feet!
9 “Who are you?” he asked.
“I am your servant Ruth,” she said. “Spread the corner of your garment(M) over me, since you are a guardian-redeemer[b](N) of our family.”
10 “The Lord bless you,(O) my daughter,” he replied. “This kindness is greater than that which you showed earlier:(P) You have not run after the younger men, whether rich or poor. 11 And now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do for you all you ask. All the people of my town know that you are a woman of noble character.(Q) 12 Although it is true that I am a guardian-redeemer of our family,(R) there is another who is more closely related than(S) I. 13 Stay here for the night, and in the morning if he wants to do his duty as your guardian-redeemer,(T) good; let him redeem you. But if he is not willing, as surely as the Lord lives(U) I will do it.(V) Lie here until morning.”
14 So she lay at his feet until morning, but got up before anyone could be recognized; and he said, “No one must know that a woman came to the threshing floor.(W)”(X)
15 He also said, “Bring me the shawl(Y) you are wearing and hold it out.” When she did so, he poured into it six measures of barley and placed the bundle on her. Then he[c] went back to town.
16 When Ruth came to her mother-in-law, Naomi asked, “How did it go, my daughter?”
Then she told her everything Boaz had done for her 17 and added, “He gave me these six measures of barley, saying, ‘Don’t go back to your mother-in-law empty-handed.’”
18 Then Naomi said, “Wait, my daughter, until you find out what happens. For the man will not rest until the matter is settled today.”(Z)
