19 “Nxa ungathi uvuna amabele ensimini yakho ubusukhohlwa isithungo ungabuyeli uyesithatha. Kumele usitshiyele umuntu wesinye isizwe lentandane kanye lomfelokazi+ ukuze uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho akubusise kukho konke okwenzayo.+

2 URuthe umMowabi wathi kuNawomi: “Ngicela ukuya emasimini ngiyedobhadobha+ izikhwebu ensimini yaloba ngubani ozakuba lomusa kimi.” UNawomi wasesithi kuye: “Kulungile, hamba ndodakazi yami.” 3 Wasuka-ke uRuthe waya emasimini waqalisa ukudobha amabele ayesala ngemva kwabavunayo. Kwenzakala ukuthi insimu angena kuyo yayingekaBhowazi+ owayeyisihlobo sika-Elimeleki.+
