6 And the kinsman-redeemer said, “I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I damage my own inheritance. Redeem it for yourself. You have my redemption, for I am not able to redeem it.”

7 And this was formerly in Israel concerning the redemption and concerning the exchange: To confirm every matter, a man would remove his sandal and give it to his companion, and this was the testimony in Israel.

8 And the kinsman-redeemer said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself.” And he removed his sandal.
