Ruth 4:10-13

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. The LORDH3068 makeH5414 the womanH802 that hath comeH935 into thy houseH1004 like RachelH7354 and like LeahH3812, which twoH8147 builtH1129 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: and doH6213 thou worthilyH2428 in EphratahH672, and be famousH7121H8034 in BethlehemH1035:12 12And let thy houseH1004 be like the houseH1004 of PharezH6557, whom TamarH8559 boreH3205 to JudahH3063, of the seedH2233 which the LORDH3068 shall giveH5414 thee of this young womanH5291.

13So BoazH1162 tookH3947 RuthH7327, and she was his wifeH802: and when he went inH935 to her, the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 her conceptionH2032, and she boreH3205 a sonH1121.
