Ruth 4:4-9

And I thought
<0559> (8804)
to advertise
<01540> (8799) <0241>
thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Buy
<07069> (8798)
[it] before the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)_,
and before the elders
<02205>
of my people
<05971>_.
If thou wilt redeem
<01350> (8799)
[it], redeem
<01350> (8798)
[it]: but if thou wilt not redeem
<01350> (8799)
[it, then] tell
<05046> (8685)
me, that I may know
<03045> (8799)_:
for [there is] none to redeem
<01350> (8800)
[it] beside
<02108>
thee; and I [am] after
<0310>
thee. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will redeem
<01350> (8799)
[it]. {I thought...: Heb. I said, I will reveal in thine ear}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Boaz
<01162>_,
What day
<03117>
thou buyest
<07069> (8800)
the field
<07704>
of the hand
<03027>
of Naomi
<05281>_,
thou must buy
<07069> (8804)
[it] also of Ruth
<07327>
the Moabitess
<04125>_,
the wife
<0802>
of the dead
<04191> (8801)_,
to raise up
<06965> (8687)
the name
<08034>
of the dead
<04191> (8801)
upon his inheritance
<05159>_.
And the kinsman
<01350> (8802)
said
<0559> (8799)_,
I cannot
<03201> (8799)
redeem
<01350> (8800)
[it] for myself, lest I mar
<07843> (8686)
mine own inheritance
<05159>_:
redeem
<01350> (8798)
thou my right
<01353>
to thyself; for I cannot
<03201> (8799)
redeem
<01350> (8800)
[it].
Now this [was the manner] in former time
<06440>
in Israel
<03478>
concerning redeeming
<01353>
and concerning changing
<08545>_,
for to confirm
<06965> (8763)
all things
<01697>_;
a man
<0376>
plucked off
<08025> (8804)
his shoe
<05275>_,
and gave
<05414> (8804)
[it] to his neighbour
<07453>_:
and this [was] a testimony
<08584>
in Israel
<03478>_.
Therefore the kinsman
<01350> (8802)
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Boaz
<01162>_,
Buy
<07069> (8798)
[it] for thee. So he drew off
<08025> (8799)
his shoe
<05275>_.
And Boaz
<01162>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the elders
<02205>_,
and [unto] all the people
<05971>_,
Ye [are] witnesses
<05707>
this day
<03117>_,
that I have bought
<07069> (8804)
all that [was] Elimelech's
<0458>_,
and all that [was] Chilion's
<03630>
and Mahlon's
<04248>_,
of the hand
<03027>
of Naomi
<05281>_.
