Ruth 4:2-5

2And he tookH3947 tenH6235 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892, and saidH559, SitH3427 ye downH3427 hereH6311. And they satH3427 downH3427.

3And he saidH559 unto the near kinsmanH251, NaomiH5281, that is comeH7725 againH7725 out of the countryH7704 of MoabH4124, selleth the parcel of landH7704, whichH834 was our brotherH251 Elimelech’s:

4And I thoughtH559 to disclose it unto thee, sayingH559, BuyH7069 it beforeH5048 them that sitH3427 hereH1350, and beforeH5048 the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971. IfH518 thou wilt redeemH1350 it, redeemH1350 it: but ifH518 thou wilt notH3808 redeemH1350 it, then tellH5046 meH5046, that I may knowH3045: for there is noneH369 to redeemH1350 it beside thee; and I am afterH310 thee. And he saidH559, I will redeemH1350 it.

5Then saidH559 BoazH1162, WhatH5921 dayH3117 thou buyest the fieldH7704 of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281, thou mustH4191 buyH7069 it also of RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of the deadH4191, to raiseH6965 upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 uponH5921 his inheritanceH5159.
