If you will redeem <i>it,</i> redeem <i>it;</i> but if not, tell me that I may know; for there is no one but you to redeem <i>it,</i> and I am after you.’” And he said, “I will redeem <i>it.</i>” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must also acquire Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of the deceased, in order to raise up the name of the deceased on his inheritance.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>And the closest relative said, “I cannot redeem <i>it</i> for myself, lest I jeopardize my own inheritance. Redeem <i>it</i> for yourself; you <i>may have</i> my right of redemption, for I cannot redeem <i>it.</i>” <p>     <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>Now this was <i>the custom</i> in former times in Israel concerning the redemption and the exchange <i>of land</i> to confirm any matter: a man removed his sandal and gave it to another; and this was the <i>manner of</i> attestation in Israel. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>So the closest relative said to Boaz, “Buy <i>it</i> for yourself.” And he removed his sandal. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>Then Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I have bought from the hand of Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech and all that belonged to Chilion and Mahlon. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>“Moreover, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, to be my wife in order to raise up the name of the deceased on his inheritance, so that the name of the deceased may not be cut off from his brothers or from the court of his <i>birth</i> place; you are witnesses today.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>And all the people who were in the court, and the elders, said, “<i>We are</i> witnesses. May the LORD make the woman who is coming into your home like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and may you achieve wealth in Ephrathah and become famous in Bethlehem. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>“Moreover, may your house be like the house of Perez whom Tamar bore to Judah, through the offspring which the LORD shall give you by this young woman.” <p>     <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife, and he went in to her. And the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>Then the women said to Naomi, “Blessed is the LORD who has not left you without a redeemer today, and may his name become famous in Israel. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>“May he also be to you a restorer of life and a sustainer of your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you and is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.” <p><b><i>The Line of David Began Here</i></b><p>     <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>Then Naomi took the child and laid him in her lap, and became his nurse. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>And the neighbor women gave him a name, saying, “A son has been born to Naomi!” So they named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David. <p>     <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>Now these are the generations of Perez: to Perez was born Hezron, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>and to Hezron was born Ram, and to Ram, Amminadab, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>and to Amminadab was born Nahshon, and to Nahshon, Salmon, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>and to Salmon was born Boaz, and to Boaz, Obed, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/ruth/4-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>and to Obed was born Jesse, and to Jesse, David.</div><br /><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
