 4:1 ¶ Then went y5927 z0 Boaz y1162 vp 5927 z8804 x1162 to the gate, 8179 and sate him downe 3427 z8799 there: x8033 and beholde, x2009 the kinseman 1350 z8802 of whome Boaz 1162 spake, 1696 z8765 came y5674 z8802 by, x5674 vnto whom x834 he said, 559 z8799 Ho, y1945 such 6423 a one: 492 turne aside, 5493 z8798 sit downe 3427 z8798 here. x6311 And hee turned aside, 5493 z8799 and sate downe. 3427 z8799

 4:2 And hee tooke 3947 z8799 ten 6235 men y582 x376 of the Elders 2205 x4480 of the citie, 5892 and said, 559 z8799 Sit ye downe 3427 z8798 here. x6311 And they sate downe. 3427 z8799

 4:3 And he said 559 z8799 vnto the kinseman: 1350 z8802 Naomi 5281 that is come againe 7725 z8804 out of the countrey 7704 x4480 of Moab, 4124 selleth 4376 z8804 a parcell 2513 of land, 7704 which x834 was our brother 251 Elimelechs. 458

 4:4 And I x589 thought 559 z8804 to aduertise 1540 241 z8799 thee, saying, 559 z8800 Buy 7069 z8798 [it] before x5048 the inhabitants, 3427 z8802 and before x5048 the Elders 2205 of my people. 5971 If x518 thou wilt redeeme 1350 z8799 [it], redeeme 1350 z8798 [it], but if x518 thou wilt not x3808 redeeme 1350 z8799 [it], then tell 5046 z8685 mee, that I may know: 3045 z8799 for x3588 there is none x369 to redeeme 1350 z8800 [it], besides 2108 thee, and I x595 [am] after 310 thee. And he said, 559 z8799 I x595 will redeeme 1350 z8799 [it].

 4:5 Then said 559 z8799 Boaz, 1162 What day 3117 thou buyest 7069 z8800 the field 7704 of the hand 3027 x4480 of Naomi, 5281 thou must buy 7069 z8804 [it] also of x4480 x854 Ruth 7327 the Moabitesse, 4125 the wife 802 of the dead, 4191 z8801 to raise vp 6965 z8687 the name 8034 of the dead 4191 z8801 vpon x5921 his inheritance. 5159

 4:6 ¶ And the kinseman 1350 z8802 said, 559 z8799 I cannot 3201 z8799 x3808 redeeme 1350 z8800 [it] for my selfe, lest x6435 I marre 7843 z8686 x853 mine owne inheritance: 5159 redeeme 1350 z8798 thou x859 x853 my right 1353 to thy selfe, for x3588 I cannot 3201 z8799 x3808 redeeme 1350 z8800 [it].

 4:7 Now this x2063 was [the maner] in former time 6440 in Israel, 3478 concerning x5921 redeeming 1353 and concerning x5921 changing, 8545 for to confirme 6965 z8763 all x3605 things: 1697 a man 376 plucked off 8025 z8804 his shooe, 5275 and gaue 5414 z8804 it to his neighbour: 7453 and this x2063 [was] a testimonie 8584 in Israel. 3478

 4:8 Therfore the kinseman 1350 z8802 said 559 z8799 vnto Boaz, 1162 Buy 7069 z8798 [it] for thee: so he drew off 8025 z8799 his shooe. 5275

 4:9 ¶ And Boaz 1162 saide 559 z8799 vnto the Elders, 2205 and vnto all x3605 the people, 5971 Ye x859 [are] witnesses 5707 this day, 3117 that x3588 I haue bought 7069 z8804 x853 all x3605 that x834 was Elimelechs, 458 and all x3605 that x834 was Chilions, 3630 and Mahlons, 4248 of the hande 3027 x4480 of Naomi. 5281

 4:10 Moreouer, x1571 x853 Ruth 7327 the Moabitesse, 4125 the wife 802 of Mahlon, 4248 haue I purchased 7069 z8804 to be my wife, 802 to raise vp 6965 z8687 the name 8034 of the dead 4191 z8801 vpon x5921 his inheritance, 5159 that the name 8034 of the dead 4191 z8801 be not x3808 cut off 3772 z8735 from among 5973 x4480 his brethren, 251 and from the gate 8179 x4480 of his place: 4725 ye x859 [are] witnesses 5707 this day. 3117

 4:11 And all x3605 the people 5971 that x834 were in the gate, 8179 and the Elders 2205 said, 559 z8799 [Wee are] witnesses: 5707 The LORD 3068 make 5414 z8799 x853 the woman 802 that is come 935 z8802 into x413 thine house, 1004 like Rachel 7354 and like Leah, 3812 which x834 two 8147 did build 1129 z8804 x853 the house 1004 of Israel: 3478 and do 6213 z8798 thou worthily 2428 in Ephratah, 672 and bee famous 7121 8034 z8798 in Bethlehem. 1035

 4:12 And let thy house 1004 be x1961 like the house 1004 of Pharez, 6557 (whom x834 Tamar 8559 bare 3205 z8804 vnto to Iudah) 3063 of x4480 the seed 2233 which x834 the LORD 3068 shall giue 5414 z8799 thee of x4480 this x2063 yong woman. 5291

 4:13 ¶ So Boaz 1162 tooke 3947 z8799 x853 Ruth, 7327 and she was x1961 his wife: 802 and when he went x935 in y935 z8799 vnto x413 her, the LORD 3068 gaue 5414 z8799 her conception, 2032 and she bare 3205 z8799 a sonne. 1121

 4:14 And the women 802 said 559 z8799 vnto x413 Naomi, 5281 Blessed 1288 z8803 be the LORD 3068 which x834 hath not x3808 left 7673 z8689 thee this day 3117 without a kinseman, 1350 z8802 that his name 8034 may bee famous 7121 z8735 in Israel: 3478

 4:15 And he shalbe x1961 vnto thee a restorer 7725 z8688 of [thy] life, 5315 and a nourisher 3557 z8771 of x853 thine old age: 7872 for x3588 thy daughter in law 3618 which x834 loueth 157 z8804 thee, which x834 is better 2896 to thee then seuen 7651 x4480 sonnes, 1121 hath borne 3205 z8804 him.

 4:16 And Naomi 5281 tooke 3947 z8799 x853 the childe, 3206 and laid 7896 z8799 it in her bosome, 2436 and became x1961 nurse 539 z8802 vnto it.

 4:17 And the women her neighbours 7934 gaue 7121 z8799 it a name, 8034 saying, 559 z8800 There is a sonne 1121 borne 3205 z8795 to Naomi, 5281 and they called 7121 z8799 his name 8034 Obed: 5744 hee x1931 [is] the father 1 of Iesse 3448 the father 1 of Dauid. 1732
