Rusi aja gutoragura amahundo, akagwa, atari ku mpanuka, mu murima wa Bowazi, umuvukanyi wabo. Aramukingira, aramugaburira, kandi amuhezagira kubera yikinze mu mababa ya Data wacu. Nawomi yumvise iryo zina, amenya ko mu muryango hari umucunguzi.
2 1Nawomi yari afitaniye isano n’umugabo wiwe, umugabo akomeye kandi atunze, wo mu muryango wa Elimeleki, yitwa Bowazi. 2Rusi Umunyamowabu abwira Nawomi ati: “Reka nje gutora intete inyuma y’uwo wese anyakiriye neza.” Nawomi aramwishura ati: “Genda, mukobwa wanje.”
3Nuko araja, atora intete inyuma y’abimbuzi, maze biba ni mu murima wa Bowazi, wo mu muryango wa Elimeleki, aza.
4Ico gihe nyene, Bowazi aza avuye i Betelehemu, abwira abimbuzi ati: “Data wa twese abane namwe.” Baramwishura bati: “Data wa twese aguhezagire.”
5Maze Bowazi abwira umukozi wiwe akuru w’abimbuzi ati: “Uwo mwigeme ni uwa nde?”
6Umukuru w’abimbuzi aramwishura ati: “Ni wa mwigeme w’Umunyamowabu yagarutse na Nawomi avuye mu gihugu ca Mowabu. 7Yavuze ati: ‘Ndakwinginze, reka ntore kandi mperereze intete mu bagwi inyuma y’abimbuzi.’ Yaje, kuva mu gitondo gushika ubu aguma ng’aha, aruhutse gatoyi gusa mu rwobo.”
8Bowazi abwira Rusi ati: “Umva, mukobwa wanje. Ntuje gutora mu murima uwundi canke ngo uve ng’aha; guma hafi y’abigeme banje. 9Witegereze umurima bariko barimbura, uce ubakurikira. Nabwiye abasore ntibakwegereko. Niwagira inyota, unywe mu mabumba abasore buzuje.”
10Nuko yunama, apfukama hasi, aramubaza ati: “Ni kuki nagize ubutoni mu maso yawe, ukingirira, nkaba ndi umunyamahanga?”
11Bowazi aramwishura ati: “Narabwiwe vyose wagiriye inabukwe guhera igihe umugabo wawe yapfira, ukuntu wasize so, na nyoko, n’igihugu c’amavukiro yawe, uza mu bantu utari wigeze umenya. 12Data wa twese akwitangire ivyo wakoze; Data wa twese, Imana ya Isirayeli, uwo waje kwikinga munsi y’amababa yiwe, akuhembe bihagije.”
13Araheza ati: “Mwami wanje, reka ngire ubutoni mu maso yawe, kuko wampumurije kandi ukavugana umugwaneza n’umusukukazi wawe, naho ntari umwe mu basukukazi bawe.”
14Igihe c’ifungurwa cageze, Bowazi ati: “Ngwino hano, urye umukate, ucobeke agahimba kawe muri siki y’umuvinyu.” Nuko yicara iruhande y’abimbuzi; aramuha intete zokeje. Arahaga, maze haronka n’ibisigara.
15Ahagurutse ngo atore intete, Bowazi ategeka abasore biwe ati: “Nave mu bagwi mureke atore; ntimumutetereze. 16Ahubwo, mukure imishururu mu bitungu mumusigarize, muheze mumushingurire ngo atore, kandi ntimumutonganye.”
17Nuko atora intete mu murima gushika ku mugoroba, maze apfumbisha ivyo yari yatoye, biba nk’ibipimo cumi na birindwi vy’ingano za sayiri. 18Arabyikorera aja mu gisagara; inabukwe arabona ingene yari yatoye vyinshi. Yongera asohora amuha n’ivyo yari yabitse amaze guhaga.
19Inabukwe aramubaza ati: “Watoreye hehe uno musi? Wakoreye hehe? Haragahezagirwa uwakwitwararitse!” Nuko Rusi aravuga uwo murima yakoreyemwo ati: “Umugabo nakoranye uno musi yitwa Bowazi.”
20Nawomi abwira umukazana wiwe ati: “Data wa twese amuhezagire, uwo umugwaneza wiwe utareka abazima canke abapfuye.” Yongerako ati: “Ni uwo turi bene wabo bw’intumbero, umwe mu bacungura bacu.” a a v20 Nawomi yita Bowazi umwe mu bacungura b’abo mu muryango wabo — uwo mwene wabo afise uburenganzira bwo kugura ibyatakaye no gusubiza hamwe umuryango. Uruhara rwa Bowazi hano rwerekana kure ca Yesu, Umucunguzi wacu ariha igiciro kugira adushikane iwacu kuri Data wa twese.
21Maze Rusi Umunyamowabu aravuga ati: “Mbere yarambwiye ati: ‘Guma n’abakozi banje gushika barangize iyimbura ryanje ryose.’”
22Nawomi abwira umukazana wiwe Rusi ati: “Ni vyiza, mukobwa wanje — sohoka n’abigeme biwe, kugira ngo ntihagire uwukugirira nabi mu murima uwundi.” 23Nuko aguma hafi y’abigeme ba Bowazi, atora intete gushika iyimbura ry’isayiri n’iry’ingano rirangiye, abana n’inabukwe.
