Ruth 4:4-6

Ruth 4:4-6

[4] And I thought  to advertise  thee, saying,  Buy  it before the inhabitants,  and before the elders  of my people.  If thou wilt redeem  it, then tell  me, that I may know:  for there is none to redeem  it beside  thee; and I am after  thee. And he said,  I will redeem  it. [5] Then said  Boaz,  What day  thou buyest  the field  of the hand  of Naomi,  thou must buy  it also of Ruth  the Moabitess,  the wife  of the dead,  to raise up  the name  of the dead  upon his inheritance.  [6] And the kinsman  said,  I cannot  redeem  it for myself, lest I mar  mine own inheritance:  redeem  thou my right  to thyself; for I cannot  redeem  it.
