King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Then went Boaz up[H5927] [H1162] to the gate,[H8179] and sat him down[H3427] there:[H8033] and, behold,[H2009] the kinsman[H1350] of whom Boaz[H1162] spoke[H1696] came by;[H5674] unto whom[H834] he said,[H559] Ho, such[H6423] a one![H492] turn aside,[H5493] sit down[H3427] here.[H6311] And he turned aside,[H5493] and sat down.[H3427]

2. And he took[H3947] ten[H6235] men[H376] of the elders[H4480] [H2205] of the city,[H5892] and said,[H559] Sit ye down[H3427] here.[H6311] And they sat down.[H3427]

3. And he said[H559] unto the kinsman,[H1350] Naomi,[H5281] that is come again[H7725] out of the country[H4480] [H7704] of Moab,[H4124] selleth[H4376] a parcel[H2513] of land,[H7704] which[H834] was our brother[H251] Elimelech's: [H458]

4. And I[H589] thought[H559] to advertise[H1540] [H241] thee, saying,[H559] Buy[H7069] it before[H5048] the inhabitants,[H3427] and before[H5048] the elders[H2205] of my people.[H5971] If[H518] thou wilt redeem[H1350] it, redeem[H1350] it: but if[H518] thou wilt not[H3808] redeem[H1350] it, then tell[H5046] me, that I may know:[H3045] for[H3588] there is none[H369] to redeem[H1350] it beside[H2108] thee; and I[H595] am after[H310] thee. And he said,[H559] I[H595] will redeem[H1350] it.

5. Then said[H559] Boaz,[H1162] What day[H3117] thou buyest[H7069] the field[H7704] of the hand[H4480] [H3027] of Naomi,[H5281] thou must buy[H7069] it also of[H4480] [H854] Ruth[H7327] the Moabitess,[H4125] the wife[H802] of the dead,[H4191] to raise up[H6965] the name[H8034] of the dead[H4191] upon[H5921] his inheritance.[H5159]

6. And the kinsman[H1350] said,[H559] I cannot[H3808] [H3201] redeem[H1350] it for myself, lest[H6435] I mar[H7843] [H853] mine own inheritance:[H5159] redeem[H1350] thou[H859] [H853] my right[H1353] to thyself; for[H3588] I cannot[H3808] [H3201] redeem[H1350] it.

7. Now this[H2063] was the manner in former time[H6440] in Israel[H3478] concerning[H5921] redeeming[H1353] and concerning[H5921] changing,[H8545] for to confirm[H6965] all[H3605] things;[H1697] a man[H376] plucked off[H8025] his shoe,[H5275] and gave[H5414] it to his neighbor:[H7453] and this[H2063] was a testimony[H8584] in Israel.[H3478]

8. Therefore the kinsman[H1350] said[H559] unto Boaz,[H1162] Buy[H7069] it for thee. So he drew off[H8025] his shoe.[H5275]

9. And Boaz[H1162] said[H559] unto the elders,[H2205] and unto all[H3605] the people,[H5971] Ye[H859] are witnesses[H5707] this day,[H3117] that[H3588] I have bought[H7069] [H853] all[H3605] that[H834] was Elimelech's,[H458] and all[H3605] that[H834] was Chilion's[H3630] and Mahlon's,[H4248] of the hand[H4480] [H3027] of Naomi.[H5281]

10. Moreover[H1571] [H853] Ruth[H7327] the Moabitess,[H4125] the wife[H802] of Mahlon,[H4248] have I purchased[H7069] to be my wife,[H802] to raise up[H6965] the name[H8034] of the dead[H4191] upon[H5921] his inheritance,[H5159] that the name[H8034] of the dead[H4191] be not[H3808] cut off[H3772] from among[H4480] [H5973] his brethren,[H251] and from the gate[H4480] [H8179] of his place:[H4725] ye[H859] are witnesses[H5707] this day.[H3117]

11. And all[H3605] the people[H5971] that[H834] were in the gate,[H8179] and the elders,[H2205] said,[H559] We are witnesses.[H5707] The LORD[H3068] make[H5414] [H853] the woman[H802] that is come[H935] into[H413] thine house[H1004] like Rachel[H7354] and like Leah,[H3812] which[H834] two[H8147] did build[H1129] [H853] the house[H1004] of Israel:[H3478] and do[H6213] thou worthily[H2428] in Ephratah,[H672] and be famous[H7121] [H8034] in Bethlehem: [H1035]

12. And let thy house[H1004] be[H1961] like the house[H1004] of Pharez,[H6557] whom[H834] Tamar[H8559] bore[H3205] unto Judah,[H3063] of[H4480] the seed[H2233] which[H834] the LORD[H3068] shall give[H5414] thee of[H4480] this[H2063] young woman.[H5291]

13. So Boaz[H1162] took[H3947] [H853] Ruth,[H7327] and she was[H1961] his wife:[H802] and when he went[H935] in unto[H413] her, the LORD[H3068] gave[H5414] her conception,[H2032] and she bore[H3205] a son.[H1121]

14. And the women[H802] said[H559] unto[H413] Naomi,[H5281] Blessed[H1288] be the LORD,[H3068] which[H834] hath not[H3808] left[H7673] thee this day[H3117] without a kinsman,[H1350] that his name[H8034] may be famous[H7121] in Israel.[H3478]

15. And he shall be[H1961] unto thee a restorer[H7725] of thy life,[H5315] and a nourisher[H3557] of[H853] thine old age:[H7872] for[H3588] thy daughter-in-law,[H3618] which[H834] loveth[H157] thee, which[H834] is better[H2896] to thee than seven[H4480] [H7651] sons,[H1121] hath born[H3205] him.

16. And Naomi[H5281] took[H3947] [H853] the child,[H3206] and laid[H7896] it in her bosom,[H2436] and became[H1961] nurse[H539] unto it.

17. And the women her neighbors[H7934] gave[H7121] it a name,[H8034] saying,[H559] There is a son[H1121] born[H3205] to Naomi;[H5281] and they called[H7121] his name[H8034] Obed:[H5744] he[H1931] is the father[H1] of Jesse,[H3448] the father[H1] of David.[H1732]

18. Now these[H428] are the generations[H8435] of Pharez:[H6557] Pharez[H6557] begot[H3205] [H853] Hezron,[H2696]

19. And Hezron[H2696] begot[H3205] [H853] Ram,[H7410] and Ram[H7410] [H853] begot[H3205] Amminadab,[H5992]

20. And Amminadab[H5992] begot[H3205] [H853] Nahshon,[H5177] and Nahshon[H5177] begot[H3205] [H853] Salmon,[H8009]

21. And Salmon[H8012] begot[H3205] [H853] Boaz,[H1162] and Boaz[H1162] begot[H3205] [H853] Obed,[H5744]

22. And Obed[H5744] begot[H3205] [H853] Jesse,[H3448] and Jesse[H3448] begot[H3205] [H853] David.[H1732]
