And Boaz hath gone up to the gate ,
and sitteth there ,
and lo ,
the redeemer is passing by of whom Boaz had spoken ,
and he saith , '
Turn aside ,
sit down here ,
such a one ,
such a one ;'
and he turneth aside and sitteth down .

Ruth:4:2 @
And he taketh ten men of the elders of the city ,
and saith , '
Sit down here ;'
and they sit down .

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 ;
ylt @
Ruth:4:4 @
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 ].'

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 .'

Ruth:4:6 @
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 .'

Ruth:4:7 @
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 .

Ruth:4:8 @
And the redeemer saith to Boaz , '
Buy [
it ]
for thyself ,'
and draweth off his sandal .

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 ;
ylt @
Ruth:4:10 @
and also Ruth the Moabitess ,
wife of Mahlon ,
I have bought to myself for a wife ,
to raise up the name of the dead over his inheritance ;
and the name of the dead is not cut off from among his brethren ,
and from the gate of his place ;
witnesses ye [
are ]
to-day .'

And all the people who [
are ]
in the gate say --
also the elders -- '
Witnesses !
Jehovah make the woman who is coming in unto thy house as Rachel and as Leah ,
both of whom built the house of Israel ;
and do thou virtuously in Ephrathah ,
and proclaim the Name in Beth-Lehem ;
ylt @
Ruth:4:12 @
and let thy house be as the house of Pharez (
whom Tamar bare to Judah ),
of the seed which Jehovah doth give to thee of this young woman .'
