Ruth 4:1-4 ▼

1 Now Boaz went up to the gate, and sat down there. Look, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by; to whom he said, |Come over here, friend, and sit down.| He turned aside, and sat down.

2 He took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, |Sit down here.| They sat down.

3 He said to the near kinsman, |Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech's.

4 I thought to disclose it to you, saying, 'Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.' If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.| He said, |I will redeem it.|
