Behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by. Boaz said to him, “ Come over here, friend, and sit down!” He came over, and sat down.2Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, “ Sit down here,” and they sat down.3He said to the near kinsman, “ Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s.4I thought I should tell you, saying, ‘ Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.”5Then Boaz said, “ On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must buy it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance.”6The near kinsman said, “ I can’t redeem it for myself, lest I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption for yourself; for I can’t redeem it.”7Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man took off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbor; and this was the way of formalizing transactions in Israel.8So the near kinsman said to Boaz, “ Buy it for yourself,” then he took off his sandal.9Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “ You are witnesses today, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, from the hand of Naomi.10Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”11All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “ We are witnesses. May Yahweh make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which both built the house of Israel; and treat you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem.12Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which Yahweh will give you by this young woman.”13So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and Yahweh enabled her to conceive, and she bore a son.14The women said to Naomi, “ Blessed be Yahweh, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel.15He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.”16Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him.17The women, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, “ A son is born to Naomi”. They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.18Now this is the history of the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron,19and Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab,20and Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon,21and Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed,22and Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.
