15. Wathi yena, Ùyabona, umkhuluwakazi wakho ubuyéle kubantu bakowabo, nakoothixo bakowabo; buya nawe, ulandele umkhuluwakazi wakho.
16. Wathi uRute, Musa akundibongoza ngokuthi mandikushiye, ndibuye, ndingàkulandeli; ngokuba apho uya khona, ndiya kuya nam; apho uya kuthi vu khona, ndiya kuthi vu khona; abantu bakowenu baya kuba ngabantu bam, uThixo wakho abe nguThixo wam;
17. apho ùfela khona, ndiya kufela khona, ndingcwatyelwe khona. Makenjenje uYehova kum, aphinde ukwenjenje: kukufa kodwa okuya kundahlula nawe.
18. Wabona ukuba uzimisele ukuhamba naye, wayeka ukuthetha kuye.
19. Bahamba ke bobabini, bada bafika eBhetelehem. Kwathi, xa bangenayo eBhetelehem, wazamazama wonke umzi ngenxa yabo, bathi, NguNahomi na lo?
20. Wathi kubo, Musani ukuthi ndinguNahomi;* yithini ndinguMara,* ngokuba uSomandla undenze ndakrakra kunene.
21. Ndemka mna ndizéle; ke uYehova undibuyisa ndilambatha. Yini na ukuba nithi ndinguNahomi; uYehova engqinile nje ngam, uSomandla endenzele ububi nje.
22. Wabuya ke uNahomi enoRute umMowabhikazi, umolokazana wakhe, owabuya elizweni lakwaMowabhi; bafika bona eBhetelehem ekuqalekeni kokuvunwa kwerhasi.
