Ruth 4:8-10

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁸ So the redeemer said to Boaz, “Acquire it for yourself!” Then he took off his sandal.

⁹ Then Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I have acquired from the hand of Naomi everything that belonged to Elimelek and everything that belonged to Kilion and Mahlon. ¹⁰ Furthermore, Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, I have acquired for myself as a wife, in order to perpetuate the name of the deceased on his inheritance, so that the name of the deceased shall not be cut off from his brothers and from the city gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”
