1Then went Bo’az [a high rate of movement] up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the kinsman of whom Bo’az [a high rate of movement] spoke came by; unto whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down. 2And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, Sit you^2f down here. And they sat down. 3And he said unto the kinsman, Na’omi [my delight], that is come again out of the country of Mo’av [Seed of my Father], sells a parcel of land, which [was] our brother Eli-Melekh [my God is king]'s: 4And I thought to advertise (to advise, warn, inform, reveal) youⁱ, saying, Buy [it] before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people. If youⁱ will redeem [it], redeem [it]: but if youⁱ will not redeem [it, then] tell me, that I may know: for [there is] none to redeem [it] beside youⁱ; and I [am] after youⁱ. And he said, I will redeem [it]. 5Then said Bo’az [a high rate of movement], What day youⁱ buy the field of the hand of Na’omi [my delight], youⁱ must buy [it] also of Rut [friendship] the Moaviah [from father: what father?], the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. 6And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem [it] for myself, lest I mar my own inheritance: redeem youⁱ my right to yourself; for I cannot redeem [it].

7Now this [was the manner] in former time in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] concerning redeeming and concerning changing, for to confirm all things; a man plucked off his shoe, and gave [it] to his neighbour: and this [was] a testimony in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. 8Therefore the kinsman said unto Bo’az [a high rate of movement], Buy [it] for youⁱ. So he drew off his shoe. 9And Bo’az [a high rate of movement] said unto the elders, and [unto] all the people, You^2f [are] witnesses this day, that I have bought all that [was] Eli-Melekh [my God is king]'s, and all that [was] Kilyon’s [pining]'s and Machlon’s [sick]'s, of the hand of Na’omi [my delight]. 10Moreover Rut [friendship] the Mo’avi [of his father], the wife of Machlon [sick], have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren, and from the gate of his place: you^2f [are] witnesses this day. 11And all the people that [were] in the gate, and the elders, said, [We are] witnesses. The LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) make the woman that is come into youⁱ house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]: and do youⁱ worthily in Ephrat [ash-heap: place of fruitfulness], and be famous in Beit-Lechem [House of Bread]: 12And let youⁱ house be like the house of Partzi [Breach (breaking forth; a break; opening, inlet)], whom Tamar [palm-tree] bore unto Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], of the seed which the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) shall give youⁱ of this young woman.

13So Bo’az [a high rate of movement] took Rut [friendship], and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) gave her conception, and she bore a son. 14And the women said unto Na’omi [my delight], Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [be] the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), which has not left youⁱ this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. 15And he shall be unto youⁱ a restorer of [youⁱ] life, and a nourisher of youⁱ old age: for youⁱ daughter in law, which loves youⁱ, which is better to youⁱ than seven sons, has born him.

16And Na’omi [my delight] took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse unto it. 17And the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Na’omi [my delight]; and they called his name ‘Oved [serving]: he [is] the father of Yishai [I possess], the father of David [beloved].

18Now these [are] the generations of Partzi [Breach (breaking forth; a break; opening, inlet)]: Partzi [Breach (breaking forth; a break; opening, inlet)] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) Hetzron [surrounded by a wall], 19And Hetzron [surrounded by a wall] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) Ram [high or exalted], and Ram [high or exalted] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) ‘Amminadav [family of the prince], 20And ‘Amminadav [family of the prince] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) Nachshon [Enchanter], and Nachshon [Enchanter] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) Salmon, 21And Salmon begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) Bo’az [a high rate of movement], and Bo’az [a high rate of movement] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) ‘Oved [serving], 22And ‘Oved [serving] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) Yishai [I possess], and Yishai [I possess] begat (to be father of; be ancestor of) David [beloved].
