11 “We are witnesses,” said the elders and all the people at the gate. “May the LORD {YHWH} make the woman entering your home like Rachel (little lamb) and Leah (weary), who together built up the house of Israel (he wrestles with God). May you be prosperous in Ephrathah (place of fruitfulness) and famous in Bethlehem (house of bread).

12 And may your house become like the house of Perez (breaking out), whom Tamar (palm-tree) bore to Judah (praised), because of the offspring the LORD {YHWH} will give you by this young woman.”
