Ruth 4:9-12

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.
