5 Boaz continued, |On the very day you buy the field from Naomi, you're also |buying| Ruth the Moabite woman, the wife of her dead husband, so the family name may be continued as an inheritance.|

6 At this, the nearer related redeemer replied, |Then I am unable to act as related redeemer, because that would complicate my own inheritance. You act instead as the related redeemer, because I cannot do so.|
