Ruth 4:13-22

13So BoazH1162 tookH3947 RuthH7327, and she became his wifeH802; and he wentH935 in unto her, and Jehovah gaveH5414 her conceptionH2032, and she bare a sonH1121. 14And the womenH802 saidH559 unto NaomiH5281, BlessedH1288 be Jehovah, who hath not left thee this dayH3117 without a near kinsmanH1350; and let his nameH8034 be famous in IsraelH3478. 15And he shall beH1961 unto thee a restorer of lifeH5315, and a nourisher of thine old age, for thy daughter-in-law, who loveth thee, who is betterH2896 to thee than sevenH7651 sonsH1121, hath borneH3205 him. 16And NaomiH5281 tookH3947 the childH3206, and laid it in her bosomH2436, and becameH1961 nurseH539 unto it. 17And the women her neighborsH7934 gaveH3205 it a nameH8034, sayingH559, There is a sonH1121 bornH3205 to NaomiH5281; and they calledH7121 his nameH8034 ObedH5744: he is the fatherH1 of JesseH3448, the fatherH1 of DavidH1732.

18Now these are the generationsH8435 of PerezH6557: PerezH6557 begat HezronH2696, 19and HezronH2696 begat RamH7410, and RamH7410 begat AmminadabH5992, 20and AmminadabH5992 begat NahshonH5177, and NahshonH5177 begat Salmon, 21and Salmon begat BoazH1162, and BoazH1162 begat ObedH5744, 22and ObedH5744 begat JesseH3448, and JesseH3448 begat DavidH1732.
