Ruth:3-4




ukjv@Ruth:3:1 @ Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?

ukjv@Ruth:3:2 @ And now is not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens you were? Behold, he winnows barley to night in the threshing floor.

ukjv@Ruth:3:3 @ Wash yourself therefore, and anoint you, and put your raiment upon you, and get you down to the floor: but make not yourself known unto the man, until he shall have done eating and drinking.

ukjv@Ruth:3:4 @ And it shall be, when he lies down, that you shall mark the place where he shall lie, and you shall go in, and uncover his feet, and lay you down; and he will tell you what you shall do.

ukjv@Ruth:3:5 @ And she said unto her, All that you says unto me I will do.

ukjv@Ruth:3:6 @ And she went down unto the floor, and did according to all that her mother in law bade her.

ukjv@Ruth:3:7 @ And when Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of corn: and she came softly, and uncovered his feet, and laid her down.

ukjv@Ruth:3:8 @ And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was afraid, and turned himself: and, behold, a woman lay at his feet.

ukjv@Ruth:3:9 @ And he said, Who are you? And she answered, I am Ruth yours handmaid: spread therefore your skirt over yours handmaid; for you are a near kinsman.

ukjv@Ruth:3:10 @ And he said, Blessed be you of the LORD, my daughter: for you have showed more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, inasmuch as you followed not young men, whether poor or rich.

ukjv@Ruth:3:11 @ And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to you all that you require: for all the city of my people does know that you are a virtuous woman.

ukjv@Ruth:3:12 @ And now it is true that I am your near kinsman: nevertheless there is a kinsman nearer than I.

ukjv@Ruth:3:13 @ Tarry this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will perform unto you the part of a kinsman, well; let him do the kinsman's part: but if he will not do the part of a kinsman to you, then will I do the part of a kinsman to you, as the LORD lives: lie down until the morning.

ukjv@Ruth:3:14 @ And she lay at his feet until the morning: and she rose up before one could know another. And he said, Let it not be known that a woman came into the floor.

ukjv@Ruth:3:15 @ Also he said, Bring the vail that you have upon you, and hold it. And when she held it, he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her: and she went into the city.

ukjv@Ruth:3:16 @ And when she came to her mother in law, she said, Who are you, my daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.

ukjv@Ruth:3:17 @ And she said, These six measures of barley gave he me; for he said to me, Go not empty unto your mother in law.

ukjv@Ruth:3:18 @ Then said she, Sit still, my daughter, until you know how the matter will fall: for the man will not be in rest, until he have finished the thing this day.

ukjv@Ruth:4:1 @ Then went Boaz up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by; unto whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.

ukjv@Ruth:4:2 @ And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit all of you down here. And they sat down.

ukjv@Ruth:4:3 @ And he said unto the kinsman, Naomi, that has come again out of the country of Moab, sells a parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech's:

ukjv@Ruth:4:4 @ And I thought to advertise you, saying, Buy it before the inhabitants, 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 none to redeem it beside you; and I am after you. And he said, I will redeem it.

ukjv@Ruth:4:5 @ Then said Boaz, What day you buy the field of the hand of Naomi, you must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.

ukjv@Ruth:4:6 @ And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I ruin mine own inheritance: redeem you my right to yourself; for I cannot redeem it.

ukjv@Ruth:4:7 @ Now this was the manner in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning changing, in order to confirm all things; a man plucked off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbour: and this was a testimony in Israel.

ukjv@Ruth:4:8 @ Therefore the kinsman said unto Boaz, Buy it for you. So he drew off his shoe.

ukjv@Ruth:4:9 @ And Boaz said unto the elders, and unto all the people, All of you 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.

ukjv@Ruth:4:10 @ Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: all of you are witnesses this day.

ukjv@Ruth:4:11 @ And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that has come into yours house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do you worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Bethlehem:

ukjv@Ruth:4:12 @ And let your house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bare unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give you of this young woman.

ukjv@Ruth:4:13 @ So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.

ukjv@Ruth:4:14 @ And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which has not left you this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel.

ukjv@Ruth:4:15 @ And he shall be unto you a restorer of your life, and a nourisher of yours old age: for your daughter in law, which loves you, which is better to you than seven sons, has born him.

ukjv@Ruth:4:16 @ And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse unto it.

ukjv@Ruth:4:17 @ And the women her neighbours 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.

ukjv@Ruth:4:18 @ Now these are the generations of Pharez: Pharez brings forth Hezron,

ukjv@Ruth:4:19 @ And Hezron brings forth Ram, and Ram brings forth Amminadab,

ukjv@Ruth:4:20 @ And Amminadab brings forth Nahshon, and Nahshon brings forth Salmon,

ukjv@Ruth:4:21 @ And Salmon brings forth Boaz, and Boaz brings forth Obed,

ukjv@Ruth:4:22 @ And Obed brings forth Jesse, and Jesse brings forth David.

ukjv@Matthew:1:5 @ And Salmon brings forth Booz of Rachab; and Booz brings forth Obed of Ruth; and Obed brings forth Jesse;
