| 1 | Now Boaz went up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by; to whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. He turned aside, and sat down. | Dt 16:18 Dt 17:5 Dt 21:19 Dt 25:7 Jb 29:7 Jb 31:21 Am 5:10-12 Am 5:15-12 |
| 2 | He took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit you down here. They sat down. | Ex 18:21 Ex 18:22 Ex 21:8 Dt 29:10 Dt 31:28 1Ki 21:8 Pr 31:23 Lam 5:14 Ac 6:12 |
| 3 | He said to the near kinsman, Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech`s: | Ps 112:5 Pr 13:10 |
| 4 | I thought to disclose it to you, saying, Buy it before those who sit here, 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 besides you; and I am after you. He said, I will redeem it. | Jer 32:7-9 Jer 32:25-9 Ro 12:17 2Co 8:21 Php 4:8 |
| 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 on his inheritance. | Ru 3:12 Ru 3:13 Gn 38:8 Dt 25:5 Dt 25:6 Mt 22:24 Lk 20:28 |
| 6 | The near kinsman said, I can`t redeem it for myself, lest I mar my own inheritance: take my right of redemption on you; for I can`t redeem it. |
| 7 | Now this was [the custom] in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man drew off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbor; and this was the [manner of] attestation in Israel. | Dt 25:7-10 |
| 8 | So the near kinsman said to Boaz, Buy it for yourself. He drew off his shoe. |
| 9 | Boaz said to the elders, and to all the people, 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. | Gn 23:16-18 Jer 32:10-12 |
| 10 | Moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead not be cut off from among his brothers, and from the gate of his place: you are witnesses this day. | Gn 29:18 Gn 29:19 Gn 29:27 Pr 18:22 Pr 19:14 Pr 31:10 Pr 31:11 Hos 3:2 Hos 12:12 Eph 5:25 |
| 11 | All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. Yahweh make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which two built the house of Israel: and do you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem: | Gn 24:60 Ps 127:3-5 Ps 128:3-6 |
| 12 | and let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the seed which Yahweh shall give you of this young woman. | Gn 46:12 Nm 26:20-22 |
| 13 | So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and Yahweh gave her conception, and she bore a son. | Ru 3:11 |
| 14 | The women said to Naomi, Blessed be Yahweh, who has not left you this day without a near kinsman; and let his name be famous in Israel. | Lk 1:58 Ro 12:15 1Co 12:26 |
| 15 | He shall be to you a restorer of life, and sustain you in your old age, for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has borne him. | Gn 45:11 Gn 47:12 Ps 55:22 Isa 46:4 |
| 16 | Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse to it. |
| 17 | The women her neighbors gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi; and they named him Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David. | Lk 1:58-63 |
| 18 | Now this is the history of the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron, | 1Ch 2:4-8 1Ch 4:1 Mt 1:3 Lk 3:33 |
| 19 | and Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab, | 1Ch 2:9 1Ch 2:10 Mt 1:4 Lk 3:33 |
| 20 | and Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon, | Nm 1:7 Mt 1:4 Lk 3:32 |
| 21 | and Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed, | 1Ch 2:11 |
| 22 | and Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David. | 1Sa 16:1 Isa 11:1 |
