Ruth 4:7-17

7Now this was the manner in former timeH6440 in IsraelH3478 concerning redeemingH1353 and concerning changingH8545, for to confirmH6965 all thingsH1697; a manH376 plucked offH8025 his shoeH5275, and gaveH5414 it to his neighbourH7453: and this was a testimonyH8584 in IsraelH3478. 8Therefore the kinsmanH1350 saidH559 unto BoazH1162, BuyH7069 it for thee. So he drew offH8025 his shoeH5275.

9And BoazH1162 saidH559 unto the eldersH2205, and unto all the peopleH5971, Ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117, that I have boughtH7069 all that was Elimelech’sH458, and all that was Chilion’sH3630 and Mahlon’sH4248, of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281. 10Moreover RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of MahlonH4248, have I purchasedH7069 to be my wifeH802, to raise upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159, that the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 be not cut offH3772 from amongH5973 his brethrenH251, 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. YhwhH3068 makeH5414 the womanH802 that is comeH935 into thine houseH1004 like RachelH7354 and like LeahH3812, which twoH8147 did buildH1129 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: and doH6213 thou worthilyH2428 in EphratahH672, and be famousH8034H7121 in Beth–lehemH1035:12 12And let thy houseH1004 be like the houseH1004 of PharezH6557, whom TamarH8559 bareH3205 unto JudahH3063, of the seedH2233 which YhwhH3068 shall giveH5414 thee of this young womanH5291.

13So BoazH1162 tookH3947 RuthH7327, and she was his wifeH802: and when he went inH935 unto her, YhwhH3068 gaveH5414 her conceptionH2032, and she bareH3205 a sonH1121. 14And the womenH802 saidH559 unto NaomiH5281, BlessedH1288 be YhwhH3068, which hath not leftH7673 thee this dayH3117 without a kinsmanH1350, that his nameH8034 may be famousH7121 in IsraelH3478.34 15And he shall be unto thee a restorerH7725 of thy lifeH5315, and a nourisherH3557 of thine old ageH7872: for thy daughter in lawH3618, which lovethH157 thee, which is betterH2896 to thee than sevenH7651 sonsH1121, hath bornH3205 him.56 16And NaomiH5281 tookH3947 the childH3206, and laidH7896 it in her bosomH2436, and became nurseH539 unto it. 17And the women her neighboursH7934 gaveH7121 it a nameH8034, sayingH559, There is a sonH1121 bornH3205 to NaomiH5281; and they calledH7121 his nameH8034 ObedH5744: he is the fatherH1 of JesseH3448, the fatherH1 of DavidH1732.
