AMP RUT 4:1 THEN BOAZ went up to the city's gate and sat down there, and behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz had spoken came by. He said to him, Ho! Turn aside and sit down here. So he turned aside and sat down.
AMP RUT 4:2 And Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city and said, Sit down here. And they sat down.
AMP RUT 4:3 And he said to the kinsman, Naomi, who has returned from the country of Moab, has sold the parcel of land which belonged to our brother Elimelech.
AMP RUT 4:4 And I thought to let you hear of it, saying, Buy it in the presence of those sitting here and before the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then say so, that I may know; for there is no one besides you to redeem it, and I am [next of kin] after you. And he said, I will redeem it.
AMP RUT 4:5 Then Boaz said, The day you buy the field of Naomi, you must buy also Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of the dead man, to restore the name of the dead to his inheritance.
AMP RUT 4:6 And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest [by marrying a Moabitess] I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption yourself, for I cannot redeem it. [Deut 23:3, 4]
AMP RUT 4:7 Now formerly in Israel this was the custom concerning redeeming and exchanging. To confirm a transaction, a man pulled off his sandal and gave it to the other. This was the way of attesting in Israel.
AMP RUT 4:8 Therefore, when the kinsman said to Boaz, Buy it for yourself, he pulled off his sandal.
AMP RUT 4:9 And 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 from the hand of Naomi.
AMP RUT 4:10 Also Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, I have bought to be my wife to restore the name of the dead to his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren and from the gate of his birthplace. You are witnesses this day.
AMP RUT 4:11 And all the people at the gate and the elders said, We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your house like Rachel and Leah, the two who built the household of Israel. May you do worthily and get wealth (power) in Ephratah and be famous in Bethlehem.
AMP RUT 4:12 And let 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.
AMP RUT 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. And he went in to her, and the Lord caused her to conceive, and she bore a son.
AMP RUT 4:14 And the women said to Naomi, Blessed be the Lord, Who has not left you this day without a close kinsman, and may his name be famous in Israel.
AMP RUT 4:15 And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher and supporter in your old age, for your daughter-in-law who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has borne him.
AMP RUT 4:16 Then Naomi took the child and laid him in her bosom and became his nurse.
AMP RUT 4:17 And her neighbor women gave him a name, saying, A son is born to Naomi. They named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David [the ancestor of Jesus Christ].
AMP RUT 4:18 Now these are the descendants of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,
AMP RUT 4:19 Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab,
AMP RUT 4:20 Amminadab of Nahshon, Nahshon of Salmon,
AMP RUT 4:21 Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed,
AMP RUT 4:22 Obed of Jesse, and Jesse of David [the ancestor of Jesus Christ].
