5 Then Boaz said, |When you acquire the field from Naomi, you must also acquire Ruth the Moabite, the wife of our deceased relative, in order to preserve his family name by raising up a descendant who will inherit his property.| 6 The guardian said, |Then I am unable to redeem it, for I would ruin my own inheritance in that case. You may exercise my redemption option, for I am unable to redeem it.| Ruth 4:5-6, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
