And Naomi H5281 said H559 to her daughter H3618 in law, H3618 Blessed H1288 be he of the LORD, H3068 who H834 has not left H5800 off his kindness H2617 to the living H2416 and to the dead. H4191 And Naomi H5281 said H559 to her, The man H376 is near H7138 of kin to us, one of our next kinsmen. H1350

Then said H559 Boaz, H1162 What day H3117 you buy H7069 the field H7704 of the hand H3027 of Naomi, H5281 you must buy H7069 it also of Ruth H7327 the Moabitess, H4125 the wife H802 of the dead, H4191 to raise H6965 up the name H8034 of the dead H4191 on his inheritance. H5159

If H3588 brothers H251 dwell H3427 together, H3162 and one H259 of them die, H4191 and have no H369 child, H1121 the wife H802 of the dead H4191 shall not marry H1961 H376 without H2351 to a stranger: H376 H2114 her husband's H2993 brother H2993 shall go H935 in to her, and take H3947 her to him to wife, H802 and perform the duty of an husband's H2992 brother H2992 to her.

And if H518 the man H376 like H2654 not to take H3947 his brother's H2994 wife, H2994 then let his brother's H2994 wife H2994 go H5927 up to the gate H8179 to the elders, H2205 and say, H559 My husband's H2993 brother H2993 refuses H3985 to raise H6965 up to his brother H251 a name H8034 in Israel, H3478 he will H14 not perform the duty of my husband's H2992 brother. H2992

Then shall his brother's H2994 wife H2994 come H5066 to him in the presence H5869 of the elders, H2205 and loose H2502 his shoe H5275 from off H5921 his foot, H7272 and spit H3417 in his face, H6440 and shall answer H6030 and say, H559 So H3602 shall it be done H6213 to that man H376 that will not build H1129 up his brother's H251 house. H1004

Saying, G3004 Master, G1320 Moses G3475 said, G2036 If G1437 a man G5100 die, G599 having G2192 no G3361 children, G5043 his brother G80 shall marry G1918 his wife, G1135 and raise G450 up seed G4690 to his brother. G80

Likewise G3668 the second G1208 also, G2532 and the third, G5154 to the seventh. G2035

And he said, H559 They were my brothers, H251 even the sons H1121 of my mother: H517 as the LORD H3068 lives, H2416 if H3863 you had saved H2421 them alive, H2421 I would not slay H2026 you.

And you shall swear, H7650 The LORD H3068 lives, H2416 in truth, H571 in judgment, H4941 and in righteousness; H6666 and the nations H1471 shall bless H1288 themselves in him, and in him shall they glory. H1984

Moreover G1161 I call G1941 God G2316 for a record G3144 on my soul, G5590 that to spare G5339 you I came G2064 not as yet G3765 to Corinth. G2882

For men G444 truly G3303 swear G3660 by the greater: G3187 and an oath G3727 for confirmation G951 is to them an end G4009 of all G3956 strife. G485
