Ruth 4:1-4

1And BoazH1162 wentH5927 up to the gateH8179, and satH3427 downH3427 there. And behold, he that had the right of redemption, of whom BoazH1162 had spokenH1696, cameH5927 by. And he saidH559, Thou, such a oneH834, turnH5493 asideH5493, sitH3427 down hereH6311. And he turnedH5493 asideH5493 and satH3427 downH3427.

2And he tookH3947 tenH6235 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892, and saidH559, SitH3427 down hereH6311. And they satH3427 downH3427.

3And he saidH559 to him that had the right of redemption: NaomiH5281, who is come backH7725 out of the countryH7704 of MoabH4124, sellsH4376 the allotment that was our brotherH251 Elimelech's.

4And I thought I would apprise thee of it and sayH559, BuyH7069 [it] in the presence of the inhabitantsH3427, and in the presence of the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971. If thou wilt redeemH1350 [it], redeemH1350; but if thou wilt not redeemH1350, tellH5046 me, that I may knowH3045; for there is none to redeemH1350 besides thee; and I am after thee. And he saidH559, I will redeemH1350 [it].
