Ruth 4:1-4

Rotherham(i) 1 Now, Boaz, went up to the gate, and sat him down there, and lo! the kinsman, passing by, of whom Boaz had spoken, so he said––Turn aside! and sit down here, such a one! And he turned aside, and sat down. 2 Then fetched he ten men of the elders of the city, and said––Sit ye down here. And they sat down. 3 Then said he to the kinsman, The parcel of land that was our brother Elimelech’s, is to be disposed of by Naomi, who hath returned out of the country of Moab; 4 and, I, thought, I would unveil thine ear, saying––Take it over in presence of such as are here seated, and in presence of the elders of my people. If thou wilt act as kinsman, act as kinsman, but, if thou wilt not so act, only tell me––that I may know, for there is none who can set thee aside as kinsman, but, I, am after thee. And he said, I, will act as kinsman.
