Wathi: “Bheka, umnakwenu usebuyele kwabakubo nakunkulunkulu wakhe; buya nawe, umlandele umnakwenu.” Kepha uRuthe wathi: “Ungangincengi ukuba ngikushiye, ngibuye, ngingakulandeli, ngokuba lapho uya khona, ngiyakuya khona nami, nalapho uhlala khona, ngiyakuhlala khona nami; abantu bakho bayakuba ngabantu bami, uNkulunkulu wakho abe nguNkulunkulu wami. Lapho ufela khona, ngiyakufela khona nami, ngimbelwe khona; uJehova akenze njalo kimi, enezele futhi, ngokuba ngukufa kuphela okuyakusahlukanisa.” Esebonile ukuthi uzimisele ukuhamba naye, wayeka ukukhuluma kuye. Base behamba bobabili baze bafika eBetlehema. Kwathi sebefikile eBetlehema, wonke umuzi wanyakaziswa, bathi: “Lo unguNawomi na?” Wathi kubo: “Ningangibizi ngokuthi uNawomi;* ngibizeni ngokuthi uMara,* ngokuba uSomandla ungiphathe ngomunyu omkhulu. Ngahamba ngigcwele, uJehova ungibuyise ngize; ningibizelani ngokuthi uNawomi, lokhu uJehova efakazile ngami, uSomandla engenzele okubi, na?” Wabuya-ke uNawomi kanye noRuthe wakwaMowabi umalokazana wakhe owabuya ezweni lakwaMowabi, bafika eBetlehema ekuqaleni kokuvunwa kwebhali.*

UNawomi wathi kuye: “Uyabona ukuthi umnakwenu usephindele kwabakubo nakonkulunkulu bakhe, nawe mlandele ubuyele kwabakini.” URuthi wathi: “Musa ukungincenga ukuba ngikushiye ngibuyele emuva, ngingahambi nawe, ngokuba lapho uya khona ngiyakuya khona nami, nalapho uhlala khona ngiyakuhlala khona nami. Abantu bakini bayakuba ngabakithi, noNkulunkulu wakho uyakuba nguNkulunkulu wami. Lapho ufela khona, ngiyofela khona nami, ngingcwatshwe khona. USimakade akangiphe amandla kulesi sinqumo, angijezise ngokuphindiwe uma ngigudluka kuso; ngukufa kuphela okuyosehlukanisa.” UNawomi wabona ukuthi uzimisele ukuhamba naye, akabe esaqhubeka nokukhuluma. Bahamba-ke bobabili baze bayofika eBhethlehema. Kuthe sebefikile eBhethlehema, umuzi wonke wanyakaza ngokufika kwabo. Abantu base bethi: “Kungabe nguNawomi lona, na?” Wabaphendula wathi: “Ningangibizi ngoNawomi; ngibizeni ngoMara, ngokuba uSomandla ungenzele okubi. Ngahamba nginakho konke, kodwa uSimakade ungibuyise ngize. Pho ningibizelani ngoNawomi, lokhu uSimakade ufakazile wamelana nami, uSomandla wangenzela okubi, na?” UNawomi nomalokazana wakwakhe uRuthi babuyela kwelakubo besuka kwaMowabi. Bafika eBhethlehema ngesikhathi kuqala ukuvunwa kwebhali.

Wathi: “Bheka, umnakwenu usebuyele kubantu bakubo nakonkulunkulu bakubo; buyela emuva ulandele umakoti wakho. URuthe wasesithi: Ungangincengi ukuthi ngikutshiye, ngibuye ngikulandele; ngokuba lapho uya khona, ngiyakuya khona nami; nalapho nilala khona, nami ngiyakulala khona; abantu bakini bayakuba ngabantu bami, noNkulunkulu wakho abe nguNkulunkulu wami. Lapho ufela khona, ngiyakufela khona nami, ngimbelwe khona; kanjalo uJehova uyakwenza kimi, futhi kube njalo, uma kuphela ukufa kusehlukanisa mina nawe. Lapho ebona ukuthi uzimisele ukuhamba naye, wayeka ukukhuluma naye. Base behamba bobabili baze bafika eBetlehema. Futhi lapho befika eBhetlehema, umuzi wonke waxokozela, wathi: Ingabe lo uNawomi? Wathi kubo: “Ningangibizi ngokuthi uNawomi; ngibizeni ngokuthi uMara, ngokuba uSomandla ungiphathe kumunyu kakhulu.” Ngaphuma ngigcwele, uJehova wangibuyisa ngize; ningibizelani ngokuthi nginguNawomi, lokhu uJehova efakaza ngami, nokuthi uSomandla ungicindezele na? Wayesebuya uNawomi, noRuthe wakwaMowabi, umalokazana wakhe, ababebuyile ezweni lakwaMowabi; bafika eBetlehema ekuqaleni kokuvunwa kwebhali.
