MLV(i)
10 Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You* are witnesses this day.
11 And all the people who were in the gate and the elders, said, We are witnesses. Jehovah make the woman that has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which two built the house of Israel and do you worthily in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem. 12 And let your house be like the house of Perez whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the seed which Jehovah will give you by this young woman.
13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. And he went in to her and Jehovah gave her conception and she bore a son. 14 And the women said to Naomi, Praise Jehovah, who has not left you this day without a near kinsman. And let his name be famous in Israel. 15 And he will be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age, for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has borne him.
16 And Naomi took the child and laid it in her bosom and became nurse to it. 17 And the women, her neighbors, gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi. And they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18 Now these are the genealogies of Perez: Perez fathered Hezron, 19 and Hezron fathered Ram and Ram fathered Amminadab, 20 and Amminadab fathered Nahshon and Nahshon fathered Salmon, 21 and Salmon fathered Boaz and Boaz fathered Obed, 22 and Obed fathered Jesse and Jesse fathered David.
