Ruth 4:7-17

7NowH5414 this was the customH1697 in formerH6440 time in IsraelH3478 concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, for to confirmH6965 allH3605 things; a manH376 drewH8025 offH5921 his shoeH5275, and gaveH5414 it to his neighbour: and this was the mannerH1697 of attestationH8584 in IsraelH3478.

8SoH1350 the near kinsmanH1350 saidH559 unto BoazH1162, BuyH7069 it for thyself. And he drewH8025 off his shoeH5275.

9And BoazH1162 saidH559 unto the eldersH2205, and unto allH3605 the peopleH5971, Ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117, that I have boughtH7069 allH3605 that was Elimelech’s, and allH3605 that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281.

10MoreoverH1571 RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of MahlonH4248, have I purchasedH7069 to be my wifeH802, to raiseH6965 upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 uponH5921 his inheritanceH5159, that the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 be notH3808 cutH3772 offH3772 from among his brethrenH251, and from the gateH8179 of his placeH4725: ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117.

11And allH3605 the peopleH5971 that were in the gateH8179, and the eldersH2205, saidH559, WeH834 are witnessesH5707. The LORDH3068 makeH5414 the womanH802 that is comeH935 intoH413 thine houseH1004 like RachelH7354 and like LeahH3812, whichH834 twoH8147 didH6213 buildH1129 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: and doH6213 thou worthily in EphrathahH672, and be famousH8034 in Beth-lehem:

12and letH5414 thy houseH1004 be like the houseH1004 of PerezH6557, whomH834 TamarH8559 bare unto JudahH3063, of the seedH2233 whichH834 the LORDH3068 shall giveH5414 thee of this youngH5291 womanH5291.

13SoH3947 BoazH1162 tookH3947 RuthH7327, and she becameH3205 his wifeH802; and he wentH935 in unto herH413, and the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 herH413 conceptionH2032, and she bare a sonH1121.

14And the womenH802 saidH559 unto NaomiH5281, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068, whichH834 hath notH3808 left thee this dayH3117 withoutH3808 a nearH3808 kinsmanH1350, and letH1350 his nameH8034 be famousH8034 in IsraelH3478.

15And he shall be unto thee a restorerH7725 of lifeH5315, and a nourisher of thine oldH1121 ageH1121: for thy daughter in law, whichH834 loveth thee, whichH834 is betterH2896 to thee thanH2896 sevenH7651 sonsH1121, hath borneH3205 him.

16And NaomiH5281 tookH3947 the childH3206, and laidH7896 it in herH3947 bosomH2436, and becameH1961 nurseH539 unto it.

17And the womenH7934 herH7121 neighbours gaveH3205 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.
