Ruth 4:2-11

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].

5And BoazH1162 saidH559, On the dayH3117 thou buyest the fieldH7704 of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281, thou must buyH7069 [it] also of RuthH7327 the Moabitess, the wifeH802 of the deadH4191, to raiseH6965 up the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159.

6And he that had the rightH1353 of redemptionH1353 saidH559, I cannot redeemH1350 [it] for myself, lestH6435 I mar mine own inheritanceH5159. RedeemH1350 thou for thyself what I should redeemH1350, for I cannot redeemH1350 [it].

7Now this [was the custom] in former time in IsraelH3478 concerning redemptionH1353 and concerning exchange, to confirm the whole matterH1697: a manH376 drewH8025 off his sandalH5275, and gaveH5414 it to his neighbour, and this was the [mode of] attestation in IsraelH3478.

8And he that had the right of redemption saidH559 to BoazH1162, BuyH7069 for thyself; and he drewH8025 off his sandalH5275.

9And BoazH1162 saidH559 to the eldersH2205 and 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.

11And all the peopleH5971 that were in the gateH8179 and the eldersH2205 saidH559, [We are] witnessesH5707. Jehovah makeH5414 the womanH802 that cometh into thy houseH1004 like RachelH7354 and like LeahH3812, which twoH8147 did buildH1129 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; and acquire power in Ephratah, and makeH5414 thyself a nameH8034 in Bethlehem;
