H1162
Now Boaz
H5927
went
H5927
up
H8179
to the gate,
H3427
and sat him down
H1350
there: and, behold, the near kinsman
H1162
of whom Boaz
H1696
spake
H5674
came
H559
by; unto whom he said,
H1945
Ho,
H6423
such
H492
a one!
H5493
turn aside,
H3427
sit down
H5493
here. And he turned aside,
H3427
and sat down.
2
H3947
And he took
H6235
ten
H582
men
H2205
of the elders
H5892
of the city,
H559
and said,
H3427
Sit ye down
H3427
here. And they sat down.
3
H559
And he said
H1350
unto the near kinsman,
H5281
Naomi,
H7725
that is come again
H7704
out of the country
H4124
of Moab,
H4376
selleth
H2513
the parcel
H7704
of land,
H251
which was our brother
H458
Elimelech's:
4
H559
And I thought
H1540
to disclose
H559
it unto thee, saying,
H7069
Buy
H3427
it before them
H2205
that sit here, and before the elders
H5971
of my people.
H1350
If thou wilt redeem
H1350
it, redeem
H1350
it: but if thou wilt not redeem
H5046
it, then tell
H3045
me, that I may know;
H1350
for there is none to redeem
H2108
it besides
H310
thee; and I am after
H559
thee. And he said,
H1350
I will redeem it.
5
H559
Then said
H1162
Boaz,
H3117
What day
H7069
thou buyest
H7704
the field
H3027
of the hand
H5281
of Naomi,
H7069
thou must buy
H7327
it also of Ruth
H4125
the Moabitess,
H802
the wife
H4191
of the dead,
H6965
to raise up
H8034
the name
H4191
of the dead
H5159
upon his inheritance.
6
H1350
And the near kinsman
H559
said,
H3201
I cannot
H1350
redeem
H7843
it for myself, lest I mar
H5159
mine own inheritance:
H1350
take
H1353
thou my right
H3201
of redemption on thee; for I cannot
H1350
redeem it.
7
H6440
Now this was the custom in former time
H3478
in Israel
H1353
concerning redeeming
H8545
and concerning exchanging,
H6965
to confirm
H1697
all things:
H376
a man
H8025
drew off
H5275
his shoe,
H5414
and gave
H7453
it to his neighbor;
H8584
and this was the manner of attestation
H3478
in Israel.
8
H1350
So the near kinsman
H559
said
H1162
unto Boaz,
H7069
Buy
H8025
it for thyself. And he drew off
H5275
his shoe.
9
H1162
And Boaz
H559
said
H2205
unto the elders,
H5971
and unto all the people,
H5707
Ye are witnesses
H3117
this day,
H7069
that I have bought
H458
all that was Elimelech's,
H3630
and all that was Chilion's
H4248
and Mahlon's,
H3027
of the hand
H5281
of Naomi.
10
H7327
Moreover Ruth
H4125
the Moabitess,
H802
the wife
H4248
of Mahlon,
H7069
have I purchased
H802
to be my wife,
H6965
to raise up
H8034
the name
H4191
of the dead
H5159
upon his inheritance,
H8034
that the name
H4191
of the dead
H3772
be not cut off
H5973
from among
H251
his brethren,
H8179
and from the gate
H4725
of his place:
H5707
ye are witnesses
H3117
this day.
11
H5971
And all the people
H8179
that were in the gate,
H2205
and the elders,
H559
said,
H5707
We are witnesses.
H3068
Jehovah
H5414
make
H802
the woman
H935
that is come
H1004
into thy house
H7354
like Rachel
H3812
and like Leah,
H8147
which two
H1129
did build
H1004
the house
H3478
of Israel:
H6213
and do
H2428
thou worthily
H672
in Ephrathah,
H7121
and be famous
H1035
in Beth-lehem:
12
H1004
and let thy house
H1004
be like the house
H6557
of Perez,
H8559
whom Tamar
H3205
bare
H3063
unto Judah,
H2233
of the seed
H3068
which Jehovah
H5414
shall give
H5291
thee of this young woman.
13
H1162
So Boaz
H3947
took
H7327
Ruth,
H802
and she became his wife;
H935
and he went in
H3068
unto her, and Jehovah
H5414
gave
H2032
her conception,
H3205
and she bare
H1121
a son.
14
H802
And the women
H559
said
H5281
unto Naomi,
H1288
Blessed
H3068
be Jehovah,
H7673
who hath not left
H3117
thee this day
H1350
without a near kinsman;
H8034
and let his name
H7121
be famous
H3478
in Israel.
15
H7725
And he shall be unto thee a restorer
H5315
of life,
H3557
and a nourisher
H7872
of thine old age,
H3618
for thy daughter-in-law,
H157
who loveth
H2896
thee, who is better
H7651
to thee than seven
H1121
sons,
H3205
hath borne him.
16
H5281
And Naomi
H3947
took
H3206
the child,
H7896
and laid
H2436
it in her bosom,
H539
and became nurse unto it.
