1 Then Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there; and behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by. Boaz said to him, 'Come over here, sit down.' So he turned aside and sat down.
2 And he took ten men from the elders of the city and said, 'Sit down here.' And they sat down.
3 Then he said to the kinsman, 'Naomi, who has come back from the land of Moab, is selling a piece of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech.
4 So I thought to inform you, saying, Buy it in the presence of those sitting here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if not, tell me, so that I may know, for there is no one to redeem it besides you, and I come after you.' And he said, 'I will redeem it.'
5 Then Boaz said, 'The day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must also acquire Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of the deceased, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance.'
6 The kinsman replied, 'I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I jeopardize my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption for yourself, for I cannot redeem it.'
7 Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redemption and exchange: to confirm a transaction, a man took off his sandal and gave it to the other party; this was the manner of attestation in Israel.
8 So the kinsman said to Boaz, 'Buy it for yourself.' And he removed his sandal.
9 Then Boaz said to the elders and all the people, 'You are witnesses this day that I have bought all that belonged to Elimelech, Chilion, and Mahlon from the hand of Naomi.
11 And all the people at the gate and the elders said, 'We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman coming into your house like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you act worthily in Ephrathah and be renowned in Bethlehem.
12 And may your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring which the LORD will give you by this young woman.'
13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife; and when he went in to her, the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son.
14 Then the women said to Naomi, 'Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a kinsman, and may his name be famous in Israel.
15 He shall be a restorer of your life and a provider for your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.'
19 And her mother-in-law said to her, Where have you gleaned today? And where have you worked? Blessed be he who took notice of you. And she showed her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, and said, The man's name with whom I worked today is Boaz.

5 Then Boaz said to his servant who was set over the reapers, Whose young woman is this?
6 And the servant who was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish young woman who came back with Naomi from the country of Moab.
7 And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves. So she came and has continued even from the morning until now, except she rested a little in the house.

1 Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
2 And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife was Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem in Judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and remained there.
3 And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died; and she was left with her two sons.
4 And they took wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they lived there about ten years.
5 And Mahlon and Chilion both died; and the woman was left without her two sons and her husband.
6 Then she arose with her daughters-in-law, to return from the country of Moab: for she had heard in the country of Moab how the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread.
7 Therefore she went out from where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.
8 And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, Go, return each to her mother's house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as you have dealt with the dead, and with me.
9 The LORD grant you that you may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voices and wept.
10 And they said to her, Surely we will return with you to your people.
11 And Naomi said, Turn back, my daughters: why will you go with me? Are there still sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
9 And he said, Who are you? And she answered, I am Ruth your handmaid: spread therefore your skirt over your handmaid; for you are a near kinsman.
10 And he said, Blessed are you of the LORD, my daughter: for you have shown more kindness at the end than at the beginning, inasmuch as you followed not young men, whether poor or rich.
11 And Boaz answered and said to her, It has fully been shown to me all that you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and have come to a people which you did not know before.
16 And Ruth said, Do not urge me to leave you, or to turn back from following you: for where you go, I will go; and where you stay, I will stay: your people shall be my people, and your God my God:
17 Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me.
22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned from the country of Moab: and they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of barley harvest.
1 Then Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?
2 And now, is not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens you were? Behold, he winnows barley tonight in the threshing floor.
13 Would you wait for them till they were grown? Would you restrain yourselves from having husbands? No, my daughters; for it grieves me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD has gone out against me.
14 And they lifted up their voices and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth held onto her.
12 And now it is true that I am your near kinsman: however there is a kinsman nearer than I.
15 And when she rose up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and do not reproach her.
