Ruth 4:11-12

11And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. Yhwh make the woman that is come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Beth–lehem:1 2

12And let thy house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bare unto Judah, of the seed which Yhwh shall give thee of this young woman.
