Ruth 4:7-10
7Now this wasthe customin former time in IsraelH3478 concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all thingsH1697: a manH376 drewH8025 off his shoe, and gaveH5414 it to his neighborH7453; and this was the mannerH1697 of attestation in IsraelH3478. 8So the near kinsmanH1350 saidH559 unto BoazH1162, BuyH7069 it for thyself. And he drewH8025 off his shoe. 9And BoazH1162 saidH559 unto the eldersH2205, and unto all the peopleH5971, Ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117, that I have boughtH7069 all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281. 10Moreover RuthH7327 the Moabitess, the wifeH802 of MahlonH4248, have I purchased to be my wifeH802, to raiseH6965 up the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159, that the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 be not cutH3772 off from among his brethren, and from the gateH8179 of his placeH4725: ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117.
