Ruth 4:1-13

Then went
<05927> (0)
Boaz
<01162>
up
<05927> (8804)
to the gate
<08179>_,
and sat him down
<03427> (8799)
there: and, behold, the kinsman
<01350> (8802)
of whom Boaz
<01162>
spake
<01696> (8765)
came
<05674> (8802)
by; unto whom he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Ho
<01945>_,
such
<06423>
a one
<0492>_!
turn aside
<05493> (8798)_,
sit down
<03427> (8798)
here. And he turned aside
<05493> (8799)_,
and sat down
<03427> (8799)_.
And he took
<03947> (8799)
ten
<06235>
men
<0582>
of the elders
<02205>
of the city
<05892>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Sit ye down
<03427> (8798)
here. And they sat down
<03427> (8799)_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto the kinsman
<01350> (8802)_,
Naomi
<05281>_,
that is come again
<07725> (8804)
out of the country
<07704>
of Moab
<04124>_,
selleth
<04376> (8804)
a parcel
<02513>
of land
<07704>_,
which [was] our brother
<0251>
Elimelech's
<0458>_:
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>_.
Moreover Ruth
<07327>
the Moabitess
<04125>_,
the wife
<0802>
of Mahlon
<04248>_,
have I purchased
<07069> (8804)
to be my wife
<0802>_,
to raise up
<06965> (8687)
the name
<08034>
of the dead
<04191> (8801)
upon his inheritance
<05159>_,
that the name
<08034>
of the dead
<04191> (8801)
be not cut off
<03772> (8735)
from among
<05973>
his brethren
<0251>_,
and from the gate
<08179>
of his place
<04725>_:
ye [are] witnesses
<05707>
this day
<03117>_.
And all the people
<05971>
that [were] in the gate
<08179>_,
and the elders
<02205>_,
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[We are] witnesses
<05707>_.
The LORD
<03068>
make
<05414> (8799)
the woman
<0802>
that is come
<0935> (8802)
into thine house
<01004>
like Rachel
<07354>
and like Leah
<03812>_,
which two
<08147>
did build
<01129> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_:
and do
<06213> (8798)
thou worthily
<02428>
in Ephratah
<0672>_,
and be famous
<07121> (8798) <08034>
in Bethlehem
<01035>_:
{do thou...: or, get thee riches, or, power} {be famous: Heb. proclaim thy name}
And let thy house
<01004>
be like the house
<01004>
of Pharez
<06557>_,
whom Tamar
<08559>
bare
<03205> (8804)
unto Judah
<03063>_,
of the seed
<02233>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall give
<05414> (8799)
thee of this young woman
<05291>_.
So Boaz
<01162>
took
<03947> (8799)
Ruth
<07327>_,
and she was his wife
<0802>_:
and when he went in
<0935> (8799)
unto her, the LORD
<03068>
gave
<05414> (8799)
her conception
<02032>_,
and she bare
<03205> (8799)
a son
<01121>_.
