3 G2532 And G2036 Boaz said G* G3588 to the one G70.4 acting as next of kin, G3588 Concerning the G3310 portion G3588 of the G68 field G3739 which G1510.2.3 is G3588 G80 of our brother G1473 G3588 G* Elimelech, G3739 which G591 he gave G* to Naomi, G3588 the G1994 one returning G1537 from out of G68 the country G* of Moab,

4 G2504 that I G2036 said to myself, G601 I will uncover G3588 G3775 your ear, G1473 G3004 saying, G2932 You acquire it G1726 before G3588 the ones G2521 sitting down, G2532 and G1726 before G3588 the G4245 elders G3588 G2992 of my people! G1473 G1487 If G70.4 you are a acting as next of kin, G70.4 then act as next of kin! G1490 But if not G70.4 acting as next of kin, G312 announce it G1473 to me! G2532 and G1097 I shall know. G3754 For G3756 there is no one G1510.2.3 G3926.1 besides G1473 you G3588 G70.4 to act as next of kin, G2504 and I G1510.2.1 am G3326 after G1473 you. G3588 G1161 And G2036 he said, G1473 I G1510.2.1 am. G70.4 I shall act as next of kin.

5 G2532 And G2036 Boaz said, G* G1722 In G2250 the day G3588 G2932 you acquire G1473 G3588 the G68 field G1537 from G5495 the hand G* of Naomi, G2532 also G3844 of G* Ruth G3588 the G* Moabitess, G1135 wife G3588 of the G2348 one having died, G2532 even G1473 she G2932 [³acquire G1473 ¹you G1163 ²must], G5620 so as G450 to raise up G3588 the G3686 name G3588 of the one G2348 having died, G1909 for G3588 G2817 his inheritance. G1473

6 G2532 And G2036 [³said G3588 ¹the G70.3 ²relative], G3756 I shall not G1410 be able G70.4 to act as next of kin G1683 myself, G3379 lest at any time G1311 I ruin G3588 G2817 my right of inheritance.

G5277.3 [²untied G435 ¹A man] G3588 G5266 his sandal, G1473 G2532 and G1325 he gave it G3588 to G4139 his neighbor, G1473 G3588 to the one G70.4 acting as next of kin G3588 G70.2 for his right of inheritance; G1473 G2532 and G3778 this G1510.7.3 was G3142 testimony G1722 in G* Israel.

8 G2532 And G2036 [³said G3588 ¹the G70.3 ²relative] G3588 G* to Boaz, G2932 You acquire G4572 to yourself G3588 G70.2 my right of inheritance! G1473 G2532 And G5277.3 he untied G3588 G5266 his sandal G1473 G2532 and G1325 gave it G1473 to him.

9 G2532 And G2036 Boaz said G* G3588 to the G4245 elders, G2532 and G3956 to all G3588 the G2992 people, G3144 You are witnesses G1473 G4594 today G3754 that G2932 I have acquired G3956 all G3588 the things G3588 G* of Elimelech, G2532 and G3956 all G3745 as much as G5224 exists to G3588 G* Chilion G2532 and G3588 G* Mahlon, G1537 from G5495 the hand G* of Naomi.

3 H559 [H8799] And he said H1350 [H8802] to the kinsman, H5281 Naomi, H7725 [H8804] that hast come again H7704 out of the country H4124 of Moab, H4376 [H8804] selleth H2513 a parcel H7704 of land, H251 which was our brother H458 Elimelech's:

4 H559 [H8804] And I thought H1540 H241 [H8799] to tell H559 [H8800] thee, saying, H7069 [H8798] Buy H3427 [H8802] it before the inhabitants, H2205 and before the elders H5971 of my people. H1350 [H8799] If thou wilt redeem H1350 [H8798] it, redeem H1350 [H8799] it: but if thou wilt not redeem H5046 [H8685] it, then tell H3045 [H8799] me, that I may know: H1350 [H8800] for there is none to redeem H2108 it besides H310 thee; and I am after H559 [H8799] thee. And he said, H1350 [H8799] I will redeem it.

5 H559 [H8799] Then said H1162 Boaz, H3117 What day H7069 [H8800] thou buyest H7704 the field H3027 of the hand H5281 of Naomi, H7069 [H8804] thou must buy H7327 it also of Ruth H4125 the Moabitess, H802 the wife H4191 [H8801] of the dead, H6965 [H8687] to raise up H8034 the name H4191 [H8801] of the dead H5159 upon his inheritance.

6 H1350 [H8802] And the kinsman H559 [H8799] said, H3201 [H8799] I cannot H1350 [H8800] redeem H7843 [H8686] it for myself, lest I decay H5159 mine own inheritance: H1350 [H8798] redeem H1353 thou my right H3201 [H8799] to thyself; for I cannot H1350 [H8800] redeem it.

7 H6440 Now this was the manner in former time H3478 in Israel H1353 concerning redeeming H8545 and concerning changing, H6965 [H8763] for raising H1697 all things; H376 a man H8025 [H8804] took off H5275 his shoe, H5414 [H8804] and gave H7453 it to his neighbour: H8584 and this was a testimony H3478 in Israel.

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Then he said unto the kinsman, "Naomi, that is come again out of the country of Moab, will sell a parcel of land which was our brother Elimelech's. ⁴ And I thought to do thee to know, and bid thee buy it before the inhabiters and elders of my people, if thou be disposed to challenge it: but and if thou wilt not purchase it, then tell me that I may know it.

Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said vnto ye kinsman, Naomi, that is come againe out of ye countrey of Moab, wil sell a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelechs. ⁴ And I thought to aduertise thee, saying, Buy it before the assistants, and before the Elders of my people. If thou wilt redeeme it, redeeme it: but if thou wilt not redeeme it, tel me: for I know that there is none besides thee to redeeme it, and I am after thee.

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ They sat down, and he spoke to the kinsman: Noemi, who is returned from the country of Moab will sell a parcel of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech. ⁴ I would have thee to understand this, and would tell thee before all that sit here, and before the ancients of my people. If thou wilt take possession of it by the right of kindred: buy it, and possess it: but if it please thee not, tell me so, that I may know what I have to do. For there is no near kinsman besides thee, who art first, and me, who am second. But he answered: I will buy the field. ⁵ And Booz said to him: When thou shalt buy the field at the woman's hand, thou must take also Ruth, the Moabitess, who was the wife of the deceased: to raise up the name of thy kinsman in his inheritance. ⁶ He answered: I yield up my right of next akin: for I must not cut off the posterity of my own family. Do thou make use of my privilege, which I profess I do willingly forego. ⁷ Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe and gave it to his neighbour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel. ⁸ So Booz said to his kinsman: Put off thy shoe. And immediately he took it off from his foot. ⁹ And he said to the ancients, and to all the people: You are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and Chelion's, and Mahalon's, of the hand of Noemi:

3 H559 And he said [H8799] H1350 unto the kinsman [H8802] H5281 , Naomi H7725 , that is come again [H8804] H7704 out of the country H4124 of Moab H4376 , selleth [H8804] H2513 a parcel H7704 of land H251 , which was our brother H458 Elimelech's:

4 H559 And I thought [H8804] H1540 to advertise [H8799] H241 H559 thee, saying [H8800] H7069 , Buy [H8798] H3427 it before the inhabitants [H8802] H2205 , and before the elders H5971 of my people H1350 . If thou wilt redeem [H8799] H1350 it, redeem [H8798] H1350 it : but if thou wilt not redeem [H8799] H5046 it, then tell [H8685] H3045 me, that I may know [H8799] H1350 : for there is none to redeem [H8800] H2108 it beside H310 thee; and I am after H559 thee. And he said [H8799] H1350 , I will redeem [H8799] it .

5 H559 Then said [H8799] H1162 Boaz H3117 , What day H7069 thou buyest [H8800] H7704 the field H3027 of the hand H5281 of Naomi H7069 , thou must buy [H8804] H7327 it also of Ruth H4125 the Moabitess H802 , the wife H4191 of the dead [H8801] H6965 , to raise up [H8687] H8034 the name H4191 of the dead [H8801] H5159 upon his inheritance.

6 H1350 And the kinsman [H8802] H559 said [H8799] H3201 , I cannot [H8799] H1350 redeem [H8800] H7843 it for myself, lest I mar [H8686] H5159 mine own inheritance H1350 : redeem [H8798] H1353 thou my right H3201 to thyself; for I cannot [H8799] H1350 redeem [H8800] it .

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And when they had taken their seats, Boaz said to the kinsman, With respect to that portion of the field which belonged to our brother Elimelech, and which is given to Noemin, who is returned from the country of Moab, ⁴ I have promised to open thine ear, saying, Purchase it in the presence of these men who are sitting here, even in the presence of the elders of my people. If thou wilt do the kinsman's part, do it; but if thou wilt not perform the office of a kinsman, tell me, that I may know; for there is none besides thee to perform the office of a kinsman, except myself, who am next after thee. And he said, I will do the kinsman's part. ⁵ Then Boaz said, On the clay thou purchasest the field of Noemin, thou must purchase it with Ruth, the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance. ⁶ Thereupon the relation said, "I cannot take upon me the office of a kinsman, lest I mar my own inheritance. Take thou upon thyself that office of a kinsman which is my right; for I cannot perform it." ⁷ Now it was the custom heretofore in Israel, in regard to the transfer of the right of consanguinity, in order to give it validity, that the man loosed his sandal, and gave it to his neighbour, who took upon him his right of consanguinity, and this was the evidence in Israel. ⁸ So when the relation said to Boaz, Purchase thou for thyself, what by the law of consanguinity it was my right to purchase, he loosed his sandal, and gave it to him. ⁹ Thereupon Boaz said to the elders, and to all the people, You are this day witnesses that I have purchased all that belonged to Elimelech, and all that belonged to Chelaion and Maalon, at the hand of Noemin;

7 H6440 Now this was the manner in former time H3478 in Israel H1353 concerning redeeming H8545 and concerning changing H6965 [H8763] , for confirming H1697 all things H376 ; a man H8025 [H8804] took off H5275 his shoe H5414 [H8804] , and gave H7453 it to his neighbour H8584 : and this was a testimony H3478 in Israel.

Brenton⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And Booz said to the relative, The matter regards the portion of the field which was our brother Elimelech's which was given to Noemin, now returning out of the land of Moab; ⁴ and I said, I will inform thee, saying, Buy it before those that sit, and before the elders of my people: if thou wilt redeem it, redeem it, but if thou wilt not redeem it, tell me, and I shall know; for there is no one beside thee to do the office of a kinsman, and I am after thee: and he said, I am here, I will redeem it. ⁵ And Booz said, In the day of thy buying the field of the hand of Noemin and of Ruth the Moabitess the wife of the deceased, thou must also buy her, so as to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the kinsman said, I shall not be able to redeem it for myself, lest I mar my own inheritance; do thou redeem my right for thyself, for I shall not be able to redeem it. ⁷ And this was in former time the ordinance in Israel for redemption, and for a bargain, to confirm every word: A man loosed his shoe, and gave it to his neighbour that redeemed his right; and this was a testimony in Israel. ⁸ And the kinsman said to Booz, Buy my right for thyself: and he took off his shoe and gave it to him. ⁹ And Booz said to the elders and to all the people, Ye are this day witnesses, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that belonged to Chelaion and Maalon, of the hand of Noemin.

Leeser⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said unto the kinsman, Na’omi, that is returned out of the field of Moab, hath to sell a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s. ⁴ And I thought to inform thee of it, saying, Buy it before those sitting here, and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem it; but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know; for there is none beside thee to redeem it, and I am after thee. And he said, I will redeem it. ⁵ Then said Bo’az, On the day that thou buyest the field out of the hand of Na’omi, thou buyest it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the kinsman said, I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I injure my own inheritance: redeem thou what I should redeem for thyself; for I am not able to redeem it. ⁷ Now this was formerly the custom in Israel at a redeeming and at an exchanging, to confirm any thing, that a man pulled off his shoe, and gave it to the other; and this was the manner of testimony in Israel. ⁸ Thereupon said the kinsman unto Bo’az, Buy it for thee. And he pulled off his shoe. ⁹ And Bo’az said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that belonged to Elimelech, and all that belonged to Kilyon and Machlon, out of the hand of Na’omi.

YLT⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he saith to the redeemer, `A portion of the field which is to our brother, to Elimelech, hath Naomi sold, who hath come back from the fields of Moab; ⁴ and I said, I uncover thine ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people; if thou dost redeem—redeem, and if none doth redeem—declare to me, and I know, for there is none save thee to redeem, and I after thee.' And he saith, I redeem it .' ⁵ And Boaz saith, `In the day of thy buying the field from the hand of Naomi, then from Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, thou hast bought it, to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance.' ⁶ And the redeemer saith, `I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I destroy mine inheritance; redeem for thyself—thou—my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem.' ⁷ And this is formerly in Israel for redemption and for changing, to establish anything: a man hath drawn off his sandal, and given it to his neighbour, and this is the testimony in Israel. ⁸ And the redeemer saith to Boaz, `Buy it for thyself,' and draweth off his sandal.
⁹ And Boaz saith to the elders, and to all the people, `Witnesses are ye to-day that I have bought all that is to Elimelech, and all that is to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi;

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he will say to the blood relative, The portion of the field which was to our brother Elimelech, Naomi turning back from the field of Moab, sells: ⁴ And I said, I will reveal to thine ear, saying, Buy before the inhabitants, and before the old men of my people. If thou wilt redeem, redeem: and if thou wilt not redeem, announce to me, and I shall know: for none besides thee to redeem; and I after thee; and he will say, I will redeem. ⁵ And Boaz will say, In the day of thy buying the field from the hand of Naomi, and from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, thou boughtest it to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the near relative will say, I shall not be able to redeem for me, lest I shall destroy my inheritance: redeem to thyself; thou the near relative: for I shall not be able to redeem. ⁷ And this before in Israel upon redemption and upon exchange, to set up all the word; a man drew off his shoe and gave to his neighbor: and this the precept in Israel. ⁸ And the blood relative will say to Boaz, Buy for thee. And he will draw off his shoe. ⁹ And Boaz will say to the old men and all the people, Ye are witnesses this day that I bought all which was to Elimelech, and all which was to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi.

Darby⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said to him that had the right of redemption: Naomi, who is come back out of the country of Moab, sells the allotment that was our brother Elimelech`s. ⁴ And I thought I would apprise thee of it and say, Buy [it] in the presence of the inhabitants, and in the presence of the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem [it], redeem; but if thou wilt not redeem, tell me, that I may know; for there is none to redeem besides thee; and I am after thee. And he said, I will redeem [it]. ⁵ And Boaz said, On the day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy [it] also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And he that had the right of redemption said, I cannot redeem [it] for myself, lest I mar mine own inheritance. Redeem thou for thyself what I should redeem, for I cannot redeem [it]. ⁷ Now this [was the custom] in former time in Israel concerning redemption and concerning exchange, to confirm the whole matter: a man drew off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbour, and this was the [mode of] attestation in Israel. ⁸ And he that had the right of redemption said to Boaz, Buy for thyself; and he drew off his sandal. ⁹ And Boaz said to the elders and all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech`s, and all that was Chilion`s and Mahlon`s, of the hand of Naomi;

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.

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.

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.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ 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. ⁵ Then said Boaz, What day thou takest over the land from the hand of Naomi, also, of Ruth the Moabitess, wife of the dead, dost thou take [it], to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ Then said the kinsman––I cannot act as kinsman for myself, lest I mar my own inheritance,––do, thou, for thyself act as kinsman in my right, for I cannot so redeem. ⁷ Now, this aforetime, [was the way] in Israel, at a redeeming, and at an exchanging, to confirm every word: A man drew off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbour,––yea, this, was the way of taking to witness, in Israel. ⁸ So the kinsman said unto Boaz, Take it over for thyself,––and he drew off his shoe.
⁹ Then said Boaz to the elders, and all the people––Witnesses, are ye today, that I have taken over all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s, and Mahlon’s,––from the hand of Naomi:

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ he stated to the kinsman redeemer:Naomi, who has returned from the field of Moab, has put up for sale the portion of the field that our kinsman Elimelech had. ⁴ As for me, I thought I should reveal it to your ear, saying, Acquire it in front of those seated here, in front of the elders of my people. Should you want to redeem, so redeem it. Yet should you not redeem, do tell me so that I may know, for there is no one except you to redeem, and I am after you. He replied, I shall redeem it. ⁵ Then Boaz continued, On the day you acquire the field from the hand of Naomi, you acquire also Ruth, the Moabite wife of the dead, in order to raise up the name of the dead on his allotment. ⁶ The kinsman redeemer replied, I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I impair my own allotment. As for you, redeem my redemption right for yourself, for I am not able to redeem it. ⁷ Now this was the custom beforetime in Israel, concerning redemption and exchange, to confirm every matter:A man would pull off his sandal and give it to his associate; this was the attestation in Israel. ⁸ So the kinsman redeemer said to Boaz, Acquire it for yourself. And he pulled off his sandal and gave it to him. ⁹ Then Boaz said to the elders and all the people, You are witnesses today that I have acquired all that Elimelech had and all that Chilion and Mahlon had, from the hand of Naomi.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Then he said to the near relation, Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is offering for a price that bit of land which was our brother Elimelech's: ⁴ And it was in my mind to give you the chance of taking it, with the approval of those seated here and of the responsible men of my people. If you are ready to do what it is right for a relation to do, then do it: but if you will not do it, say so to me now; for there is no one who has the right to do it but you, and after you myself. And he said, I will do it. ⁵ Then Boaz said, On the day when you take this field, you will have to take with it Ruth, the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, so that you may keep the name of the dead living in his heritage. ⁶ And the near relation said, I am not able to do the relation's part, for fear of damaging the heritage I have: you may do it in my place, for I am not able to do it myself. ⁷ Now, in earlier times this was the way in Israel when property was taken over by a near relation, or when there was a change of owner. To make the exchange certain one man took off his shoe and gave it to the other; and this was a witness in Israel. ⁸ So the near relation said to Boaz, Take it for yourself. And he took off his shoe. ⁹ Then Boaz said to the responsible men and to all the people, You are witnesses today that I have taken at a price from Naomi all the property which was Elimelech's, and everything which was Chilion's and Mahlon's.

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said to the kinsman, Naomi, who has come again out of the country of Moab, sells a parcel of land which was our brother Elimelech's. ⁴ And I said I will tell it in your ear, saying, Buy it before those who live here, and before the elders of my people.

You redeem my right to yourself, for I cannot redeem. ⁷ And this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning changing, to confirm everything. A man plucked off his sandal and gave it to his neighbor. And this was a testimony in Israel. ⁸ Therefore the kinsman said to Boaz, Buy it for yourself.

If you will redeem, redeem. But if you will not redeem, tell me so that I may know. For there is no one besides you to redeem, and I after you.

You redeem for yourself my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem. ⁷ And this formerly was done in Israel for redemption, and for changing, to confirm every thing: A man would draw off his sandal and gave to his neighbor.

And he says, I redeem. ⁵ And Boaz says, The day you chattel the field of the hand of Noomiy, you also chattel of Ruth the Moabiyth, the woman of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the redeemer says, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I ruin my own inheritance; redeem my redemption to yourself; for I cannot redeem it. ⁷ Now at the face of Yisra El concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging to confirm all words was this; a man draws his shoe and gives it to his friend; and this is the witness in Yisra El. ⁸ And the redeemer says to Boaz, Chattel for yourself. - and he draws off his shoe. ⁹ And Boaz says to the elders and to all the people, you are witnesses this day, that I chatteled all that of Eli Melech and all that of Kilyon and Machlon, of the hand of Noomiy;

7 H6440 Now this was the manner in former time H3478 in Israel H1353 concerning redeeming H8545 and concerning exchanging, H6965 for to confirm H1697 all things; H376 a man H8025 plucked off H5275 his shoe, H5414 and gave H7453 it to his neighbor: H8584 and this was a testimony H3478 in Israel.

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said unto the redeemer, Naomi, that is come again out of the field of Moab, sold a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s, ⁴ and I decided to cause thee to know this and tell thee to take it before the inhabitants and before the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem it, but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me that I may know, for there is no one to redeem it besides thee, and I after thee. And he said, I will redeem it. ⁵ Then Boaz replied, The day that thou dost receive the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must also receive Ruth, the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the redeemer said, I cannot redeem it for myself lest I ruin my own inheritance; redeem thou; I cede my right to you, for I shall not be able to redeem it. ⁷ Now for a long time in Israel there had been this custom concerning redemption or contracts, that for the confirmation of all matters: one plucked off his shoe and gave it to his neighbour, and this was a testimony in Israel. ⁸ Therefore, the former owner of the right of redemption said unto Boaz, Buy it thyself. So he drew off his shoe. ⁹ ¶ And Boaz said unto the elders and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, of the hand of Naomi.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And Boaz said to the relative, The matter regards the portion of the field which was our brother Elimelech's which was given to Naomi, now returning out of the land of Moab. ⁴ And I said, I will inform you, saying, Buy it before those that sit, and before the elders of my people: if you will redeem it, redeem it, but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, and I shall know; for there is no one beside you to redeem it, and I am after you. And he said, I am here, I will redeem it. ⁵ And Boaz said, On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi and of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the deceased, you must also buy her, so as to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the kinsman said, I shall not be able to redeem it for myself, lest I ruin my own inheritance; you redeem my right for yourself, for I shall not be able to redeem it. ⁷ And this was in former time the ordinance in Israel for redemption, and for a bargain, to confirm every word: A man loosed his shoe, and gave it to his neighbor that redeemed his right; and this was for a testimony in Israel. ⁸ And the kinsman said to Boaz, Buy my right for yourself. And he took off his shoe and gave it to him. ⁹ And Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, You are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that belonged to Chilion and Mahlon, from the hand of Naomi.

LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And Booz said to the relative, [The matter regards] the portion of the field which was our brother Elimelech's which was given to Noemin, now returning out of the land of Moab; ⁴ and I said, I will inform you, saying, Buy it before those that sit, and before the elders of my people: if you will redeem it, redeem it, but if you will not redeem it, tell me, and I shall know; for there is no one beside you to do the office of a kinsman, and I am after you: and he said, I am [here], I will redeem it. ⁵ And Booz said, In the day of your buying the field of the hand of Noemin and of Ruth the Moabitess the wife of the deceased, you must also buy her, so as to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. ⁶ And the kinsman said, I shall not be able to redeem it for myself, lest I mar my own inheritance; do you redeem my right for yourself, for I shall not be able to redeem [it]. ⁷ And this [was] in former time the ordinance in Israel for redemption, and for a bargain, to confirm every word: A man loosed his shoe, and gave it to his neighbor that redeemed his right; and this was a testimony in Israel. ⁸ And the kinsman said to Booz, Buy my right for yourself: and he took off his shoe and gave it to him. ⁹ And Booz said to the elders and to all the people, You⌃ [are] this day witnesses, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that belonged to Chelaion and Maalon, of the hand of Noemin.

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Then Boaz said to the close relative: »Naomi has come back from the country of Moab. She is offering for a price that bit of land which belonged to our brother Elimelech. ⁴ »I am giving you a chance to take it with the approval of those seated here, the responsible men of my people. If you are ready to do what it is right for a relative to do, then do it. If you will not do it, say so to me now. There is no one who has the right to do it but you, and after you, myself.« And he said: »I will do it.« ⁵ Then Boaz said: »On the day when you take this field, you will have to take with it Ruth, the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, so that you may keep the name of the dead living in his heritage.« ⁶ The near relative said: »I am not able to redeem it for myself, for fear of damaging the heritage I have. You may do it in my place, for I am not able to do it myself.« ⁷ It was the custom for the seller to take off his sandal and give to the buyer to settle a sale or exchange of property. By doing this, Israelites showed that the matter was settled. ⁸ So when the man said to Boaz: »You buy it,« he took off his sandal and gave it to Boaz. ⁹ Then Boaz said to the leaders and all the others there: »You are all witnesses today that I have bought from Naomi everything that belonged to Elimelech and to his sons Chilion and Mahlon.

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ and Boaz addressed the related redeemer directly: “A portion of a field belonging to our relative Elimelech is up for sale by Naomi, who recently returned from the country of Moab. ⁴ So I thought to myself I ought to tell you that you must make a public purchase of this before the town residents and the elders of my people. So if you intend to act as the related redeemer, then do so. But if not, let me know, because except for you—and I after you—there is no one to fulfill the duties of a related redeemer.”
The man responded, “I will act as related redeemer.”
⁵ A Complication Arises and is ResolvedBoaz continued, “On the very day you buy the field from Naomi, you’re also “buying” Ruth the Moabite woman, the wife of her dead husband, so the family name may be continued as an inheritance.”
⁶ At this, the nearer related redeemer replied, “Then I am unable to act as related redeemer, because that would complicate my own inheritance. You act instead as the related redeemer, because I cannot do so.”
⁷ During Israel’s earlier history, all things concerning redeeming or changing inheritances were confirmed by a man taking off his sandal and giving it to the other party, thereby creating a public record in Israel. ⁸ So when the nearer related redeemer told Boaz, “Make the purchase yourself,” he then took off his sandal.
⁹ Boaz’s Public CommitmentAt this, Boaz addressed the elders and all of the people: “You all are witnesses today that I hereby redeem everything from Naomi that belonged to Elimelech, including what belonged to Chilion and Mahlon,

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said to the redeemer, "Naomi, who returned from the countryside of Moab, is selling the tract of land which was for our brother Elimelech. ⁴ And I thought _⌊I would tell you_⌋* and say, '_⌊Buy it in the presence of_⌋* those sitting and before the elders of my people,' if you want to redeem it, redeem it. But if you do not want to redeem, tell me so that I may know, for there is no one except you to redeem it, and I am after you." And he said, "I want to redeem it." ⁵ And Boaz said, "On the day of your acquiring the field from the hand of Naomi, you also acquire Ruth the Moabite, the wife of the dead man, in order to raise up for the name of the dead his inheritance." ⁶ And the redeemer said, "I am not able to redeem for myself, lest I ruin my inheritance. You redeem for yourself my kinsman-redemption, for I am not able to redeem it." ⁷ (Now this _⌊was the custom in former times_⌋* in Israel concerning the kinsman-redemption and transfer of property: to confirm the matter, a man removed his sandal and gave it to his fellow countryman. This was the manner of attesting in Israel.) ⁸ So the redeemer said to Boaz, "Acquire it for yourself," and he removed his sandal. ⁹ And Boaz said to the elders and all of the people, "You are witnesses today that I have acquired all that was for Elimelech and that was for Kilion and Mahlon from the hand of Naomi.

BSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ And he said to the kinsman-redeemer, “Naomi, who has returned from the land of Moab, is selling the piece of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech. ⁴ I thought I should inform you that you may buy it back in the presence of those seated here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you want to redeem it, do so. But if you will not redeem it, tell me so I may know, because there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.” “I will redeem it,” he replied. ⁵ Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the land from Naomi and also from Ruth the Moabitess, you must also acquire the widow of the deceased in order to raise up the name of the deceased on his inheritance.” ⁶ The kinsman-redeemer replied, “I cannot redeem it myself, or I would jeopardize my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption, because I cannot redeem it.” ⁷ Now in former times in Israel, concerning the redemption or exchange of property, to make any matter legally binding a man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party, and this was a confirmation in Israel. ⁸ So the kinsman-redeemer removed his sandal and said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself.” ⁹ At this, Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I am buying from Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech, Chilion, and Mahlon.

⁷ Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: A man drew off his shoe and gave it to his neighbor.

Beerbe du, was ich beerben soll; denn ich vermag es nicht zu beerben. ⁷ Und es war von alters her eine solche Gewohnheit in Israel: wenn einer ein Gut nicht beerben noch erkaufen wollte, auf daß eine Sache bestätigt würde, so zog er seinen Schuh aus und gab ihn dem andern; das war das Zeugnis in Israel. ⁸ Und der Erbe sprach zu Boas: Kaufe du es! und zog seinen Schuh aus. ⁹ Und Boas sprach zu den Ältesten und zu allem Volk: Ihr seid heute Zeugen, daß ich alles gekauft habe, was dem Elimelech, und alles, was Chiljon und Mahlon gehört hat, von der Hand Naemis;

3 H559 Da sprach H1350 er zu dem Erben H5281 : Naemi H7704 , die vom Lande H4124 der Moabiter H7725 wiedergekommen H4376 ist, bietet H2513 feil das Stück H7704 Feld H251 , das unsers Bruders H458 war, Elimelechs .

4 H559 Darum gedachte H241 ich’s vor deine Ohren H1540 zu bringen H559 und zu sagen H1350 : Willst du es beerben H7069 , so kaufe H3427 es vor den Bürgern H2205 und vor den Ältesten H5971 meines Volks H1350 ; willst du es aber nicht beerben H5046 , so sage H3045 mir’s, daß ich’s wisse H1350 .

7 H6440 Es war von alters H3478 her eine solche Gewohnheit in Israel H1353 : wenn einer ein Gut nicht beerben H8545 noch erkaufen H1697 wollte, auf daß eine Sache H6965 bestätigt H8025 würde, so zog H376 er H5275 seinen Schuh H8025 aus H5414 und gab H7453 ihn dem andern H8584 ; das war das Zeugnis H3478 in Israel .

DSV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Toen zeide hij tot dien losser: Het stuk lands, dat van onzen broeder Elimelech was, heeft Naomi, die uit der Moabieten land wedergekomen is, verkocht; ⁴ En ik heb gezegd: Ik zal het voor uw oor openbaren, zeggende: Aanvaard het in tegenwoordigheid der inwoners, en in tegenwoordigheid der oudsten mijns volks; zo gij het zult lossen, los het; en zo men het ook niet zou lossen, verklaar het mij, dat ik het wete; want er is niemand, behalve gij, die het losse, en ik na u. Toen zeide hij: Ik zal het lossen. ⁵ Maar Boaz zeide: Ten dage, als gij het land aanvaardt van de hand van Naomi, zo zult gij het ook aanvaarden van Ruth, de Moabietische, de huisvrouw des verstorvenen, om den naam des verstorvenen te verwekken over zijn erfdeel. ⁶ Toen zeide die losser: Ik zal het voor mij niet kunnen lossen, opdat ik mijn erfdeel niet misschien verderve; los gij mijn lossing voor u; want ik zal niet kunnen lossen. ⁷ Nu was dit van ouds een gewoonheid in Israël, bij de lossing en bij de verwisseling, om de ganse zaak te bevestigen, zo trok de man zijn schoen uit en gaf die aan zijn naaste; en dit was tot een getuigenis in Israël. ⁸ Zo zeide de losser tot Boaz: Aanvaard gij het voor u; en hij trok zijn schoen uit. ⁹ Toen zeide Boaz tot de oudsten en al het volk: Gijlieden zijt heden getuigen, dat ik aanvaard heb alles, wat van Elimelech geweest is, en alles, wat van Chiljon en Machlon geweest is, van de hand van Naomi.

3 H559 H8799 Toen zeide hij H1350 H8802 tot dien losser H2513 : Het stuk H7704 lands H834 , dat H251 van onzen broeder H458 Elimelech H5281 was, heeft Naomi H4480 , die uit H4124 der Moabieten H7704 land H7725 H8804 wedergekomen is H4376 H8804 , verkocht;

4 H589 En ik H559 H8804 heb gezegd H241 : Ik zal het [voor] uw oor H1540 H8799 openbaren H559 H8800 , zeggende H7069 H8798 : Aanvaard H5048 het in tegenwoordigheid H3427 H8802 der inwoners H5048 , en in tegenwoordigheid H2205 der oudsten H5971 mijns volks H518 ; zo H1350 H8799 gij het zult lossen H1350 H8798 , los H518 het; en zo H3808 men het ook niet H1350 H8799 zou lossen H5046 H8685 , verklaar H3045 H8799 het mij, dat ik het wete H3588 ; want H369 er is niemand H2108 , behalve H1350 H8800 gij, die het losse H595 , en ik H310 na H559 H8799 u. Toen zeide hij H595 : Ik H1350 H8799 zal het lossen.

Giguet⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Et Booz dit au parent le plus proche. Il y a un champ de notre frère Elimélech qui a été donné à Noémi, laquelle est revenue de Moab. ⁴ Et moi j’ai dit que je t’en informerais et te dirais: Prends-en possession devant ceux qui sont assis, tous anciens de notre peuple. Si tu veut racheter, rachète; si tu ne le veux, déclare-le-moi, je saurai qu’il n’y a plus personne qui doive racheter, et je viens après toi. Et l’autre répondit: Je rachèterai. ⁵ Et Booz lui dit: Le jour où tu acquerras le champ des mains de Noémi, et du consentement de Ruth la Moabite, femme du défunt, il faudra que tu la prennes aussi afin de faire revivre le nom de son mari sur son héritage. ⁶ Et le parent le plus proche dit: Je ne suis point capable de le racheter pour moi-même, sinon au détriment de mon propre héritage; rachète pour toi-même ce que j’ai le droit de racheter, parce que je ne puis le racheter. ⁷ Or, dès longtemps en Israël cette règle existait concernant les rachats, et les marchés: pour confirmer toute parole, l’homme, détachait sa chaussure et la donnait à son proche, qui reprenait son droit de rachat. Tel était le témoignage en Israël. ⁸ Le parent le plus proche dit donc à Booz: Acquiers pour toi tous, mes droits de rachat. Et il dénoua sa chaussure, et il la lui donna. ⁹ ¶ Et Booz dit aux anciens et à tout le peuple: Vous êtes témoins aujourd’hui que j’ai acheté de Noémi tous les biens d’Elimélech et tout ce qui appartenait à Chélaïon et à Maalon

DarbyFR⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Et il dit à celui qui avait le droit de rachat: Naomi, qui est revenue des champs de Moab, vend la pièce de terre qui était à notre frère Élimélec. ⁴ Et moi, je me suis dit: Je t'en informerai, et je te dirai: Achète-la en la présence des habitants et en la présence des anciens de mon peuple. Si tu veux racheter, rachète; et si tu ne veux pas racheter, déclare-le moi, afin que je le sache; car il n'y a personne que toi pour racheter, et moi je suis après toi. Et il dit: Je rachèterai. ⁵ Et Boaz dit: Au jour que tu achèteras le champ de la main de Naomi, tu l'achèteras aussi de Ruth, la Moabite, femme du défunt, pour relever le nom du défunt sur son héritage. ⁶ Et celui qui avait le droit de rachat dit: Je ne puis pas le racheter pour moi, de peur que je ne ruine mon héritage; use, toi, de mon droit de rachat, car je ne puis racheter. ⁷ Or c'était jadis une coutume en Israël, en cas de rachat et d'échange, que, pour confirmer toute affaire, l'un ôtait sa sandale et la donnait à l'autre; c'était là une coutume en Israël. ⁸ Et celui qui avait le droit de rachat dit à Boaz: Achète pour toi; et il ôta sa sandale. ⁹
Et Boaz dit aux anciens et à tout le peuple: Vous êtes aujourd'hui témoins que j'ai acheté de la main de Naomi tout ce qui était à Élimélec, et tout ce qui était à Kilion et à Makhlon;

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Puis il dit à celui qui avait le droit de retrait lignager : Nahomi qui est retournée du pays de Moab, a vendu la portion du champ qui appartenait à notre frère Eli-mélec. ⁴ Et j'ai pensé qu'il fallait te le faire savoir, et te dire : Acquiers-la en la présence de ceux qui sont ici assis, et en la présence des Anciens de mon peuple; si tu la veux racheter par droit de retrait lignager, rachète-la; mais si tu ne la veux pas racheter, déclare-le-moi, afin que je le sache : car il n'y en a point d'autre que toi qui la puisse racheter par droit de retrait lignager, et je suis après toi. Il répondit : Je la rachèterai par droit de retrait lignager. ⁵ Et Booz dit : Au jour que tu acquerras le champ de la main de Nahomi, tu l'acquerras aussi de Ruth la Moabite, femme au défunt, pour susciter le nom du défunt dans son héritage. ⁶ Et celui qui avait le droit de retrait lignager dit : Je ne saurais le racheter, de peur que je ne dissipe mon héritage; toi, prends pour toi le droit de retrait lignager que j'y ai; car je ne saurais le racheter. ⁷ Or c'était une ancienne coutume en Israël, qu'au cas de droit de retrait lignager et de subrogation, pour confirmer la chose l'homme déchaussait son soulier, et le donnait à son prochain, et c'était là un témoignage en Israël qu'on cédait son droit. ⁸ Quand donc celui qui avait le droit de retrait lignager eut dit à Booz : Acquiers-le pour toi; il déchaussa son soulier. ⁹ Et Booz dit aux Anciens et à tout le peuple : Vous êtes aujourd'hui témoins que j'ai acquis de la main de Nahomi, tout ce qui appartenait à Eli-mélec, et tout ce qui était à Kiljon, et à Mahlon.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Puis il dit à celui qui avait le droit de rachat: Naomi, revenue du pays de Moab, a vendu la pièce de terre qui appartenait à notre frère Elimélec. ⁴ J'ai cru devoir t'en informer, et te dire: Acquiers-la, en présence des habitants et en présence des anciens de mon peuple. Si tu veux racheter, rachète; mais si tu ne veux pas, déclare-le-moi, afin que je le sache. Car il n'y a personne avant toi qui ait le droit de rachat, et je l'ai après toi. Et il répondit: je rachèterai. ⁵ Boaz dit: Le jour où tu acquerras le champ de la main de Naomi, tu l'acquerras en même temps de Ruth la Moabite, femme du défunt, pour relever le nom du défunt dans son héritage. ⁶ Et celui qui avait le droit de rachat répondit: Je ne puis pas racheter pour mon compte, crainte de détruire mon héritage; prends pour toi mon droit de rachat, car je ne puis pas racheter. ⁷ Autrefois en Israël, pour valider une affaire quelconque relative à un rachat ou à un échange, l'un ôtait son soulier et le donnait à l'autre: cela servait de témoignage en Israël. ⁸ Celui qui avait le droit de rachat dit donc à Boaz: Acquiers pour ton compte!

Në rast se do ta shpengosh, shpengoje; por në rast se nuk ke ndër mend ta shpengosh, ma thuaj që ta di edhe unë; sepse asnjeri veç teje nuk gëzon të drejtën e shpengimit, dhe pas teje vij unë"". Ai u përgjegj: "Do të kërkoj të drejtën time". ⁵ Atëherë Boazi tha: "Ditën që do ta blesh arën nga dora e Naomit, ti do ta blesh edhe nga Ruthi, Moabitja, bashkëshortja e të ndjerit, për ta ringjallur emrin e të ndjerit në trashëgiminë e tij". ⁶ Ai që gëzonte të drejtën e shpengimit u përgjegj: "Unë nuk mund ta shpengoj për vete, sepse do të shkatërroj trashëgiminë time; shpengo ti atë që duhet të shpengoja unë, sepse unë nuk mund ta shpengoj". ⁷ Ky ishte zakoni në kohërat e kaluara në Izrael lidhur me të drejtën e shpengimit dhe të ndryshimit të pronësisë: personi hiqte sandalen dhe ja jepte tjetrit; kjo ishte mënyra e dëshmisë në Izrael. ⁸ Kështu ai që gëzonte të drejtën e shpengimit i tha Boazit: "Blije ti vetë", dhe hoqi sandalen. ⁹ Atëherë Boazi u tha pleqve dhe tërë popullit: "Ju sot jeni dëshmitarë që unë bleva sot në duart e Naomit të gjitha ato që ishin pronë e Elimelekut, të Kilionit dhe të Mahlonit.

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ И сказал Вооз родственнику: Ноеминь, возвратившаяся с полейМоавитских, продает часть поля, принадлежащую брату нашему Елимелеху; ⁴ я решился довести до ушей твоих и сказать: купи присидящих здесь и при старейшинах народа моего; если хочешь выкупить, выкупай; а если нехочешь выкупить, скажи мне, и я буду знать; ибо кроме тебя некому выкупить; а по тебе я. Тот сказал: я выкупаю. ⁵ Вооз сказал: когда ты купишь поле у Ноемини, то должен купить и у Руфи Моавитянки, жены умершего, и должен взять ее в замужество, чтобы восстановить имя умершего в уделе его. ⁶ И сказал тот родственник: не могу я взять ее себе, чтобы не расстроить своего удела; прими ее ты, ибо я не могу принять. ⁷ Прежде такой был обычай у Израиля при выкупе и при мене для подтверждения какого-либо дела: один снимал сапог свой и давал другому, и это было свидетельством у Израиля. ⁸ И сказал тот родственник Воозу: купи себе. И снял сапог свой. ⁹ И сказал Вооз старейшинам и всему народу: вы теперь свидетели тому, что я покупаю у Ноемини все Елимелехово и все Хилеоново и Махлоново;

Arabic⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ ثم قال للولي ان نعمي التي رجعت من بلاد موآب تبيع قطعة الحقل التي لاخينا اليمالك. ⁴ فقلت اني اخبرك قائلا اشتر قدام الجالسين وقدام شيوخ شعبي. فان كنت تفكّ ففكّ. وان كنت لا تفكّ فاخبرني لاعلم لانه ليس غيرك يفك وانا بعدك. فقال اني افكّ. ⁵ فقال بوعز يوم تشتري الحقل من يد نعمي تشتري ايضا من يد راعوث الموآبية امرأة الميت لتقيم اسم الميت على ميراثه. ⁶ فقال الولي لا اقدر ان افك لنفسي لئلا افسد ميراثي. ففكّ انت لنفسك فكاكي لاني لا اقدر ان افكّ. ⁷ وهذه هي العادة سابقا في اسرائيل في امر الفكاك والمبادلة لاجل اثبات كل امر يخلع الرجل نعله ويعطيه لصاحبه. فهذه هي العادة في اسرائيل. ⁸ فقال الولي لبوعز اشتر لنفسك. وخلع نعله ⁹ فقال بوعز للشيوخ ولجميع الشعب انتم شهود اليوم اني قد اشتريت كل ما لاليمالك وكل ما لكليون ومحلون من يد نعمي.

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ И каза на сродника: Ноемин, която се върна от моавските полета, продава нивата, която принадлежеше на брат ни Елимелех. ⁴ Затова аз си помислих да ти съобщя и да ти кажа: Купи я пред жителите и пред старейшините на народа ми. Ако ще откупиш, откупи, но ако няма да откупиш, кажи ми, за да зная; защото няма друг освен теб, който да откупи, и аз съм след теб. И той каза: Ще откупя. ⁵ Тогава Вооз каза: В деня, когато купиш нивата от ръката на Ноемин, трябва да я купиш и от моавката Рут, жената на умрелия, за да издигнеш името на умрелия над наследството му. ⁶ А сродникът каза: Не мога да я откупя за себе си, да не би да съсипя собственото си наследство. Ти откупи за себе си това, което е мое да откупя, защото аз не мога да го откупя. ⁷ А в предишните времена това беше обичаят в Израил при откупуване и при размяна, за да се потвърди всяко нещо: човекът събуваше обувката си и я даваше на другия; и това беше свидетелството в Израил. ⁸ Затова сродникът каза на Вооз: Купи я за себе си! — и събу обувката си. ⁹ Тогава Вооз каза на старейшините и на целия народ: Днес вие сте свидетели, че купих от ръката на Ноемин всичко, което беше на Елимелех, и всичко, което беше на Хелеон и Маалон.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Zatim reče skrbniku: "Noemi, koja se vratila s Moapskih polja, htjela bi prodati ono zemlje našega brata Elimeleka. ⁴ Zato sam odlučio da se s tobom razgovorim i predložim ti: otkupi njivu pred ovima koji sjede ovdje i pred starješinama moga naroda. Ako je kaniš otkupiti, onda otkupi; ako ne kaniš, kaži mi da znam. Jer prije tebe nema nitko pravo na otkup; ja sam na redu tek iza tebe." A onaj reče: "Hoću, otkupit ću je." ⁵ Onda kaza Boaz: "Kad uzmeš zemlju iz ruke Noemi, treba da uzmeš i Rutu Moapku, pokojnikovu ženu, da se pokojniku sačuva ime na baštini." ⁶ Ali skrbnik reče: "E, onda ne mogu biti otkupnik, da ne raspem svoje baštine. Otkupi ti po svome skrbničkom pravu jer ja ne mogu." ⁷ A bijaše od starine običaj u Izraelu: da se čemu potkrijepi valjanost otkupa ili zamjene, čovjek bi izuo sandalu i dao je drugome. To bijaše svjedočanstvo u Izraelu. ⁸ Tako dakle i onaj skrbnik reče Boazu: "Otkupi ti!" te izu sandalu i dade mu je. ⁹ Tada Boaz kaza starješinama i svemu narodu: "Vi ste danas svjedoci da ja otkupljujem iz ruke Noemine sve ono što je bilo Elimelekovo, sve što je bilo Kiljonovo i Mahlonovo.

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Tedy řekl příbuznému tomu: Díl pole, kteréž bylo bratra našeho Elimelecha, prodala Noémi, kteráž se navrátila z krajiny Moábské. ⁴ A já jsem umínil netajiti toho před tebou, a pravímť: Ujmi pole to před přísedícími těmito a staršími lidu mého. Jestliže chceš koupiti, kup; pakli nekoupíš, oznam mi. Nebo vím, že kromě tebe není žádného, kterýž by měl právo koupiti je, a já jsem po tobě. Tedy on řekl: Já koupím. ⁵ I řekl Bóz: Když ujmeš pole to od Noémi, tedy i Rut Moábskou, manželku mrtvého, sobě pojmeš, abys vzbudil jméno mrtvého v dědictví jeho. ⁶ Odpověděl příbuzný ten: Nemohuť koupiti, abych snad nezahladil dědictví svého. Uživ ty práva příbuznosti mé, nebo já ho nemohu užiti. ⁷ (Byl pak ten obyčej od starodávna v Izraeli při koupi a směnách, ku potvrzení všelijakého jednání, že szul jeden obuv svou, a dal ji druhému. A to bylo na svědectví té věci v Izraeli.) ⁸ Protož řekl příbuzný Bózovi: Ujmi ty. I szul obuv svou. ⁹ Tedy řekl Bóz starším těm a všemu lidu: Vy svědkové jste dnes, že jsem ujal všecko, což bylo Elimelechovo, i všecko to, což bylo Chelionovo a Mahalonovo, od Noémi.

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Da sagde han til Løseren: Den Del af Marken, som hørte vor Broder Elimelek til, den har Noomi, som er kommen tilbage af Moabiternes Land, solgt. ⁴ Og jeg sagde: Jeg vil aabenbare det for dine Øren, og sige: Køb det i Overværelse af Indbyggerne og de Ældste af mit Folk: Dersom du vil løse det, løs det, men dersom du ikke vil løse det, giv mig det til Kende, at jeg; kan vide det; thi der er ingen uden du til at løse det og jeg efter dig; og han sagde: Jeg vil løse det. ⁵ Og Boas sagde: Paa hvilken Dag du køber det Land af Noomis Haand, da køber du det og af den moabitiske Ruth, den dødes Hustru, for at oprejse den døde et Navn paa hans Arv. ⁶ Da sagde Løseren: Jeg kan ikke løse det for mig, at jeg ikke skal fordærve min egen Arv; løs du det for dig, det jeg skulde løse; thi jeg kan ikke løse det. ⁷ Og dette var fordum Sædvane i Israel ved Løsning og ved Skiften til at stadfæste al Handel, at een drog; sin Sko af og gav sin Næste; og det var Vidnesbyrdet i Israel. ⁸ Og Løseren sagde til Boas: Køb dig det; og han drog sin Sko af. ⁹ Da sagde Boas til de Ældste og til alt Folket: I ere Vidner i Dag, at jeg har købt alt det, som hørte Elimelek til, og alt det, som hørte Kiljon og Malon til, af Noomis Haand.

Lunasta sinä itsellesi, mitä minun olisi lunastettava; minä en voi sitä tehdä." ⁷ Muinoin oli Israelissa lunastus-ja vaihtokauppoja vahvistettaessa tapa tällainen: riisuttiin kenkä ja annettiin toiselle; tätä käytettiin Israelissa todistuksena. ⁸ Niin sukulunastaja sanoi Booaalle: "Osta sinä se itsellesi".

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ berkatalah Boas kepada orang yang sesanak keluarga dengannya itu, "Naomi telah kembali dari Moab. Sekarang ia mau menjual tanah kepunyaan mendiang Elimelekh, keluarga kita. ⁴ Dan saya kira kau harus tahu tentang hal itu. Kalau kau mau membelinya, katakanlah di depan orang-orang yang duduk di sini. Kalau tidak, katakanlah dengan terus terang, sebab hanya kita berdua yang punya hak atas hal itu; kau yang pertama, kemudian baru saya." Jawab orang itu, "Ya, saya akan membelinya." ⁵ Lalu kata Boas, "Baiklah kalau begitu. Tetapi, kalau kau membeli tanah itu dari Naomi, maka kau harus juga mengambil Rut, wanita Moab, janda mendiang anak Naomi. Sebab, tanah itu harus tetap menjadi milik keturunan orang yang sudah meninggal itu." ⁶ Jawab orang itu, "Kalau demikian, maka saya tak sanggup. Sekarang baiklah saya lepaskan hak saya sebagai orang pertama yang wajib membeli tanah itu. Tak ada gunanya saya membelinya sebab tanah itu tentu tidak akan dapat menjadi milik keturunan saya. Lebih baik kau saja yang membelinya." ⁷ Pada masa itu kalau orang menjual atau menukar sesuatu miliknya, maka untuk mensahkan hal itu biasanya si penjual melepaskan sandalnya, lalu menyerahkannya kepada si pembeli. Demikianlah caranya orang-orang di Israel mensahkan sesuatu perkara jual beli tanah. ⁸ Karena itu, ketika orang itu berkata kepada Boas, "Kau saja yang membelinya," ia melepaskan sandalnya lalu menyerahkannya kepada Boas. ⁹ Maka kata Boas kepada pemuka-pemuka masyarakat serta semua orang lain yang ada di situ, "Hari ini kalian semua menjadi saksi bahwa saya telah membeli dari Naomi semua yang dimiliki oleh mendiang Elimelekh dan anak-anaknya, yaitu Kilyon dan Mahlon.

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Poi Booz disse a colui che avea la ragion della consanguinità: Naomi, ch’è ritornata dalle contrade di Moab, ha venduta la possessione del campo, ch’era di Elimelec, nostro fratello; ⁴ laonde io ho detto di fartene motto, e di dirti che tu l’acquisti in presenza di costoro che seggono qui, e in presenza degli Anziani del mio popolo; se tu la vuoi riscuotere, per ragione di consanguinità, fallo; ma, se tu non la vuoi riscuotere, dichiaramelo, acciocchè io il sappia; perciocchè non v’è alcun altro per riscuoterla, se non tu, ed io dopo te. Allora colui disse: Io la riscuoterò. ⁵ E Booz gli disse: Nel giorno che tu acquisterai il campo della mano di Naomi, tu l’acquisterai ancora da Rut Moabita, moglie del morto, per suscitare il nome del morto sopra la sua eredità. ⁶ Ma, colui che avea la ragione della consanguinità, disse: Io non posso usare la ragione della consanguinità per me; che talora io non dissipi la mia eredità; usa tu la mia ragione della consanguinità, per riscuoterla; perciocchè io non posso farlo. ⁷ Or ab antico v’era questa usanza, che, in caso di riscatto per ragione di consanguinità, e di trasportamento di ragione, per fermar tutto l’affare, l’uomo si traeva la scarpa, e la dava al suo prossimo; e ciò serviva di testimonianza in Israele. ⁸ Così, dopo che colui che avea la ragione della consanguinità ebbe detto a Booz: Acquistati tu quel campo, egli si trasse la scarpa. ⁹ E Booz disse agli Anziani, e a tutto il popolo: Voi siete oggi testimoni che io ho acquistato dalla mano di Naomi tutto ciò ch’era di Elimelec, e tutto ciò ch’era di Chilion e di Malon;

Se vuoi far valere il tuo diritto di riscatto, fallo; ma se non lo vuoi far valere, dimmelo, ond’io lo sappia; perché non c’è nessuno, fuori di te, che abbia il diritto di riscatto; e, dopo di te, vengo io". Quegli rispose: "Farò valere il mio diritto". ⁵ Allora Boaz disse: "Il giorno che acquisterai il campo dalla mano di Naomi, tu lo acquisterai anche da Ruth la Moabita, moglie del defunto, per far rivivere il nome del defunto nella sua eredità". ⁶ Colui che aveva il diritto di riscatto rispose: "Io non posso far valere il mio diritto, perché rovinerei la mia propria eredità; subentra tu nel mio diritto di riscatto, giacché io non posso valermene". ⁷ Or v’era in Israele quest’antica usanza, per render valido un contratto di riscatto o di cessione di proprietà; uno si cavava la scarpa e la dava all’altro; era il modo di attestazione in Israele. ⁸ Così, colui che aveva il diritto di riscatto disse a Boaz: "Fa’ l’acquisto per conto tuo", si cavò la scarpa. ⁹ Allora Boaz disse agli anziani e a tutto il popolo: "Voi siete oggi testimoni che io ho acquistato dalle mani di Naomi tutto quello che apparteneva a Elimelec, a Kilion ed a Mahlon,

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Ir jis kalbėjo giminaičiui: “Noomė, kuri grįžo iš Moabo krašto, parduoda lauką, priklausiusį mūsų broliui Elimelechui. ⁴ Aš norėjau pranešti tai tau. Pirk tą lauką čia sėdinčiųjų ir vyresniųjų akivaizdoje. Jei nori išpirkti, pirk, o jei nenori, pasakyk man, kad žinočiau. Nėra kito, kuris turi teisę tai išpirkti, o po tavęsmano eilė”. Tas atsakė: “Aš pirksiu”. ⁵ Boozas tarė: “Tą dieną, kai pirksi lauką iš Noomės, turėsi nupirkti ir moabitę Rūtą, mirusiojo žmoną, kad išlaikytum mirusiojo vardą jo nuosavybei”. ⁶ Giminaitis atsakė: “Aš negaliu išpirkti jos, nes tada nukentėtų mano paties paveldėjimas. Tu pasinaudok mano teise, nes aš negaliu to padaryti”. ⁷ Izraelyje buvo paprotys: kai kas nors perleisdavo savo teisę į paveldėjimą kitam, jis nusiaudavo savo sandalą ir paduodavo savo artimui. Tai būdavo liudijimas Izraelyje. ⁸ Kai giminaitis pasakė Boozui: “Pirk tai sau”, nusiavė sandalą ir jam padavė. ⁹ Tada Boozas tarė vyresniesiems ir visiems žmonėms: “Jūs esate šiandien liudytojai, kad aš nupirkau iš Noomės visa, kas priklausė Elimelechui, Kiljonui ir Machlonui.

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Zatem rzekł onemu powinowatemu: Dział roli, który był brata naszego Elimelecha, sprzedała Noemi, która się wróciła z ziemi Moabskiej. ⁴ I zdało mi się to odnieść do uszu twoich, mówiąc: Otrzymaj tę rolę przed tymi, którzy tu siedzą, i przed starszymi ludu mego; a chceszli ją odkupić, odkup; a jeźliż nie odkupisz, powiedz mi; bo wiem, że nad cię niemasz bliższego do wykupienia, a jam po tobie. Tedy on rzekł: Ja odkupię. ⁵ Nadto rzekł Booz: Dnia, którego otrzymasz rolę z rąk Noemi, tedy też i Rutę Moabitkę, żonę zmarłego, pojmiesz, abyś wzbudził imię zmarłego w dziedzictwie jego. ⁶ Odpowiedział powinowaty: Nie mogę odkupić, bym snać nie stracił dziedzictwa mego. Odkupże ty sobie bliskość moję, gdyż ja nie mogę odkupić jej. ⁷ (A był to starodawny zwyczaj w Izraelu przy wykupie, i przy zamianie, aby warowniejsza była każda sprawa, tedy zzuwał jeden z nich trzewik swój, i dawał go bliźniemu swojemu; a toć było na świadectwo ustępowania dóbr w Izraelu.) ⁸ Tedy rzekł on powinowaty do Booza: Otrzymajże ty; i zzuł trzewik swój. ⁹ Zatem rzekł Booz do onych starszych, i do wszystkiego ludu: Świadkami dziś jesteście wy, żem to wszystko otrzymał, co było Elimelechowe, i to wszystko, co było Chelijonowe, i Mahalonowe, z rąk Noemi.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Disse Booz ao remidor: Noemi, que voltou da terra dos moabitas, vendeu a parte da terra que pertencia a Elimélec; nosso irmão. ⁴ Resolvi informar-te disto, e dizer-te: Compra-a na presença dos que estão sentados aqui, na presença dos anciãos do meu povo; se hás de redimi-la, redime-a, e se não, declara-mo, para que o saiba, pois outro não há, senão tu, que a redima, e eu depois de ti. Então disse ele: Eu a redimirei. ⁵ Disse, porém, Booz: No dia em que comprares o campo da mão de Noemi, também tomarás a Rute, a moabita, que foi mulher do falecido, para suscitar o nome dele na sua herança. ⁶ Então disse o remidor: Não poderei redimi-lo para mim, para que não prejudique a minha própria herança; toma para ti o meu direito de remissão, porque eu não o posso fazer. ⁷ Outrora em Israel, para confirmar qualquer negócio relativo à remissão e à permuta, o homem descalçava o sapato e o dava ao seu próximo; e isto era por testemunho em Israel. ⁸ Dizendo, pois, o remidor a Booz: Compra-a para ti, descalçou o sapato. ⁹ Então Booz disse aos anciãos e a todo o povo: Sois hoje testemunhas de que comprei tudo quanto foi de Elimélec, e de Quilion, e de Malom, da mão de Noemi,

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Derefter sa han til løseren: Den aker som tilhørte vår bror Elimelek, har No'omi solgt, hun som er kommet tilbake fra Moabs land. ⁴ Og jeg tenkte jeg vilde la dette komme til din kunnskap og si: Kjøp den i overvær av dem som sitter her, og av mitt folks eldste! Vil du innløse den, sa gjør det; men hvis ikke, så si mig det, sa jeg kan vite det! For det er ingen til å innløse den uten du og efter dig jeg selv. Han svarte: Jeg vil innløse den. ⁵ Da sa Boas: Når du kjøper akeren av No'omi, kjøper du den også av moabittinnen Rut, den avdødes hustru, for å opreise den avdødes navn på hans arvelodd. ⁶ Løseren svarte: Jeg kan ikke innløse den for mig, for da vilde jeg ødelegge min egen arvelodd; innløs du for dig det jeg skulde løse, for jeg kan ikke innløse det. ⁷ I gamle dager var det skikk i Israel ved innløsning og bytte at den ene part til stadfestelse av saken drog sin sko av og gav den til den andre; dette gjaldt som bekreftelse i Israel. ⁸ Derfor sa løseren til Boas: Kjøp du det! Og med det samme drog han sin sko av. ⁹ Da sa Boas til de eldste og alt folket: I er idag vidner på at jeg har kjøpt av No'omi alt det som tilhørte Elimelek, og alt som tilhørte Kiljon og Mahlon.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ Apoi a zis celui ce avea drept de răscumpărare:,,Naomi, întorcîndu-se din ţara Moabului, a vîndut bucata de pămînt care era a fratelui nostru Elimelec. ⁴ Am crezut de datoria mea să te înştiinţez despre aceasta, şi să-ţi spun:,Cumpără -o, în faţa locuitorilor şi în faţa bătrînilor poporului meu. Dacă vrei s'o răscumperi, răscumpără -o; dar dacă nu vrei, spune-mi, ca să ştiu. Căci nu este nimeni înaintea ta care să aibă dreptul de răscumpărare, şi după tine eu am dreptul acesta.`` Şi el a răspuns:,,O voi răscumpăra.`` ⁵ Boaz a zis:,,În ziua în care vei cumpăra ţarina din mîna Naomei, o vei cumpăra în acelaş timp şi dela Rut, Moabita, nevasta celui mort, ca să ridici numele mortului în moştenirea lui.`` ⁶ Şi cel ce avea drept de răscumpărare a răspuns:,,Nu pot s'o răscumpăr pe socoteala mea, de frică să nu-mi stric moştenirea mea; ia tu dreptul de răscumpărare, căci eu nu pot s'o răscumpăr.`` ⁷ Odinioară în Israel, pentru întărirea unei răscumpărări sau unui schimb, omul îşi scotea încălţămintea şi o dădea celuilalt: aceasta slujea ca mărturie în Israel. ⁸ Cel ce avea drept de răscumpărare a zis dar lui Boaz:,,Cumpără -o pe socoteala ta!`` Şi şi -a scos încălţămintea. ⁹ Atunci Boaz a zis bătrînilor şi întregului popor:,,Voi sînteţi martori azi că am cumpărat din mîna Naomei tot ce era al lui Elimelec, al lui Chilion şi al lui Mahlon,

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ І сказав він до родича: Ділянку поля, що нашого брата Елімелеха, продала Ноомі, яка вернулася з моавського поля. ⁴ А я постановив: Подам тобі до ушей твоїх, говорячи: Купи при тих, що сидять тут, та при старших мого народу. Якщо викупиш викупи, а якщо не викупиш скажи мені, і нехай я знаю, бо окрім тебе нема кому викупити, а я за тобою. А той сказав: Я викуплю. ⁵ І сказав Боаз: Того дня, коли набудеш поле з руки Ноомі, то набудеш також моавитянку Рут, жінку померлого, щоб поставити ім'я померлому на наділі його. ⁶ А родич сказав: Не можу я викупити собі, щоб не понищити свого наділу. Викупи собі мого викупа, бо я не можу викупити. ⁷ А оце було колись серед Ізраїля на викуп, і на заміну, і на ствердження кожної справи: чоловік здіймав сандалю свою, і давав своєму ближньому, і це було свідоцтвом серед Ізраїля. ⁸ І сказав родич до Боаза: Купи собі! І зняв свою сандалю. ⁹ І сказав Боаз до старших та до всього народу: Ви свідки сьогодні, що я набув усе, що Елімелехове, і все, що Кілйонове та Махлонове з руки Ноомі.
