Ruth 4:3-4

3And he saidH559 to the redeemerH1350, “NaomiH5281, who has returnedH7725 from the landH7704 of MoabH4124, has to sellH4376 the plotH2513 of landH7704 1whichH834 belonged to our brotherH251 ElimelechH458.

4So I thoughtH559 that I would 2informH241H1540 you, sayingH559, ‘3BuyH7069 it beforeH5048 those who are sittingH3427 here, and beforeH5048 the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971. IfH518 you will redeemH1350 it, redeemH1350 it; but ifH518 4not, tellH5046 me so that I may knowH3045; for 5thereH369 isH369 noH369 oneH369 exceptH2108 you to redeemH1350 it, and I am afterH310 you.’” And he saidH559, “I will redeemH1350 it.”
