Ruth 4:11-12

11All the people who were in the 1court, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your home 2like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and may you achieve 3wealth in Ephrathah and 4become famous in Bethlehem. 12Moreover, may your house be like the house of 5Perez whom Tamar bore to Judah, through the 6offspring which the Lord will give you by this young woman.”
