| Ruth 4:1 | Then Booz went up to the gate, and sat there. And when he had seen the kinsman going by, of whom he had spoken before, he said to him, calling him by his name: Turn aside for a little while, and sit down here. He turned aside, and sat down. | And Boaz went up to the public place of the town, and took his seat there: and the near relation of whom he had been talking came by; and Boaz, crying out to him by name, said, Come and be seated here. And he came and was seated. | 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 Booz taking ten men of the ancients of the city, said to them: Sit ye down here. | Then he got ten of the responsible men of the town, and said, Be seated here. And they took their seats. | And he taketh ten men of the elders of the city, and saith, `Sit down here;` and they sit down. |
| Ruth 4:3 | 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. | 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: | 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; |
| Ruth 4:4 | 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. | 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. | 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].` |
| Ruth 4:5 | 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. | 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. | 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 | 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. | 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. | 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 | 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 neighhour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel. | 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. | 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 | So Booz said to his kinsman: Put off thy shoe. And immediately he took it off from his foot. | So the near relation said to Boaz, Take it for yourself. And he took off his shoe. | And the redeemer saith to Boaz, `Buy [it] for thyself,` and draweth off his sandal. |
| Ruth 4:9 | 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: | 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. | 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; |
| Ruth 4:10 | And have taken to wife Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahalon, to raise up the name of the deceased in his inheritance lest his name be cut off, from among his family and his brethren and his people. You, I say, are witnesses of this thing. | And, further, I have taken Ruth, the Moabitess, who was the wife of Mahlon, to be my wife, to keep the name of the dead man living in his heritage, so that his name may not be cut off from among his countrymen, and from the memory of his town: you are witnesses this day. | 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.` |
| Ruth 4:11 | Then all the people that were in the gate, and the ancients answered: We are witnesses: The Lord make this woman who cometh into thy house, like Rachel, and Lia, who built up the house of Israel: that she may be an example of virtue in Ephrata, and may have a famous name in Bethlehem: | And all the people who were in the public place, and the responsible men, said, We are witnesses. May the Lord make this woman, who is about to come into your house, like Rachel and Leah, which two were the builders of the house of Israel: and may you have wealth in Ephrathah, and be great in Beth-lehem; | 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; |
| Ruth 4:12 | And that the house may be, as the house of Phares, whom Thamar bore unto Juda, of the seed which the Lord shall give thee of this young woman. | May your family be like the family of Perez, the son whom Tamar gave to Judah, from the offspring which the Lord may give you by this young woman. | 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.` |
| Ruth 4:13 | Booz therefore took Ruth, and married her: and went in unto her, and the Lord gave her to conceive and to bear a son. | So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the Lord made her with child and she gave birth to a son. | And Boaz taketh Ruth, and she becometh his wife, and he goeth in unto her, and Jehovah giveth to her conception, and she beareth a son. |
| Ruth 4:14 | And the women said to Noemi: Blessed be the Lord, who hath not suffered thy family to want a successor, that his name should be preserved in Israel. | And the women said to Naomi, A blessing on the Lord, who has not let you be this day without a near relation, and may his name be great in Israel. | And the women say unto Naomi, `Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not let a redeemer cease to thee to-day, and his name is proclaimed in Israel, |
| Ruth 4:15 | And thou shouldst have one to comfort thy soul, and cherish thy old age. For he is born of thy daughter in law: who loveth thee: and is much better to thee, than if thou hadst seven sons. | He will be a giver of new life to you, and your comforter when you are old, for your daughter-in-law, who, in her love for you, is better than seven sons, has given birth to him. | and he hath been to thee for a restorer of life, and for a nourisher of thine old age, for thy daughter-in-law who hath loved thee who is better to thee than seven sons hath borne him.` |
| Ruth 4:16 | And Noemi taking the child laid it in her bosom, and she carried it, and was a nurse unto it. | And Naomi took the child and put her arms round it, and she took care of it. | And Naomi taketh the lad, and layeth him in her bosom, and is to him for a nurse; |
| Ruth 4:17 | And the women her neighbours, congratulating with her and saying: There is a son born to Noemi: called his name Obed: he is the father of Isai, the father of David. | And the women who were her neighbours gave it a name, saying, Naomi has a child; and they gave him the name of Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David. | and the neighbouring women give to him a name, saying, `There hath been a son born to Naomi,` and they call his name Obed; he [is] father of Jesse, father of David. |
| Ruth 4:18 | These are the generations of Phares: Phares begot Esron, | Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron; | And these are genealogies of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron, |
| Ruth 4:19 | Esron begot Aram, Aram begot Aminadab, | And Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab; | and Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminidab, |
| Ruth 4:20 | Aminadab begot Nahasson, Nahasson begot Salmon, | And Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon; | and Amminidab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon, |
| Ruth 4:21 | Salmon begot Booz, Booz begot Obed, | And Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed; | and Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed, |
| Ruth 4:22 | Obed begot Isai, Isai begot David. | And Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David. | and Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David. |
