Ruth 4:5-11

  5 H1162 Then Boaz H559 said, H3117 "On the day H7069 you buy H7704 the field H3027 from the hand H5281 of Naomi, H7069 you must buy H7327 it also from the H4125 Moabitess, H802 the wife H4191 of the dead, H6965 to raise up H8034 the name H4191 of the dead H5159 on his inheritance."

  6 H1350 The near kinsman H559 said, H3201 "I can't H1350 redeem H7843 it for myself, lest I mar H5159 my own inheritance. H1350 Take H1353 my right H3201 of redemption for yourself; for I can't 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 took off H5275 his shoe, H5414 and gave H7453 it to his neighbor; H8584 and this was the way of attestation H3478 in Israel.

  8 H1350 So the near kinsman H559 said H1162 to Boaz, H7069 "Buy H8025 it for yourself." He took off H5275 his shoe.

  9 H1162 Boaz H559 said H2205 to the elders, H5971 and to all the people, H5707 "You 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 from the hand H5281 of Naomi.

  10 H7327 Moreover the H4125 Moabitess, H802 the wife H4248 of Mahlon, H7069 I have purchased H802 to be my wife, H6965 to raise up H8034 the name H4191 of the dead H5159 on his inheritance, H8034 that the name H4191 of the dead H3772 not be cut off H5973 from among H251 his brothers, H8179 and from the gate H4725 of his place. H5707 You are witnesses H3117 this day."

  11 H5971 All the people H8179 who were in the gate, H2205 and the elders, H559 said, H5707 "We are witnesses. H3068 May Yahweh H5414 make H802 the woman H935 who has come H1004 into your house H7354 like Rachel H3812 and like Leah, H8147 which two H1129 built H1004 the house H3478 of Israel; H6213 and treat H2428 you worthily H672 in Ephrathah, H7121 and be famous H1035 in Bethlehem.
