Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Meanwhile, Boaz went to the gate and sat down there. Soon the kinsman-redeemer of whom he had spoken came along, and Boaz said, “Come over here, my friend, and sit down.” So he went over and sat down.
1波阿斯 到了城门，坐在那里，恰巧 波阿斯 所说的那至近的亲属经过。 波阿斯 说：「某人哪，你来坐在这里。」他就来坐下。
2Then Boaz took ten of the elders of the city and said, “Sit here,” and they did so.
2波阿斯 又从本城的长老中拣选了十人，对他们说：「请你们坐在这里。」他们就都坐下。
3And he said to the kinsman-redeemer, “Naomi, who has returned from the land of Moab, is selling the piece of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech.
3波阿斯 对那至近的亲属说：「从 摩押 地回来的 拿俄米 ，现在要卖我们族兄 以利米勒 的那块地；
4I thought I should inform you that you may buy it back in the presence of those seated here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you want to redeem it, do so. But if you will not redeem it, tell me so I may know, because there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.” “I will redeem it,” he replied.
4我想当赎那块地的是你，其次是我，以外再没有别人了。你可以在这里的人面前和我本国的长老面前说明，你若肯赎就赎，若不肯赎就告诉我。」那人回答说：「我肯赎。」
5Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the land from Naomi and also from Ruth the Moabitess, you must also acquire the widow of the deceased in order to raise up the name of the deceased on his inheritance.”
5波阿斯 说：「你从 拿俄米 手中买这地的时候，也当娶死人的妻 摩押 女子 路得 ，使死人在产业上存留他的名。」
6The kinsman-redeemer replied, “I cannot redeem it myself, or I would jeopardize my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption, because I cannot redeem it.”
6那人说：「这样我就不能赎了，恐怕于我的产业有碍。你可以赎我所当赎的，我不能赎了。」
7Now in former times in Israel, concerning the redemption or exchange of property, to make any matter legally binding a man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party, and this was a confirmation in Israel.
7从前，在 以色列 中要定夺什么事，或赎回，或交易，这人就脱鞋给那人。 以色列 人都以此为证据。
8So the kinsman-redeemer removed his sandal and said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself.”
8那人对 波阿斯 说：「你自己买吧！」于是将鞋脱下来了。
9At this, Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses today that I am buying from Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech, Chilion, and Mahlon.
9波阿斯 对长老和众民说：「你们今日作见证，凡属 以利米勒 和 基连 、 玛伦 的，我都从 拿俄米 手中置买了；
10Moreover, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, Mahlon’s widow, as my wife, to raise up the name of the deceased through his inheritance, so that his name will not disappear from among his brothers or from the gate of his home. You are witnesses today.”
10又娶了 玛伦 的妻 摩押 女子 路得 为妻，好在死人的产业上存留他的名，免得他的名在本族本乡灭没。你们今日可以作见证。」
11“We are witnesses,” said the elders and all the people at the gate. “May the LORD make the woman entering your home like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you be prosperous in Ephrathah and famous in Bethlehem.
11在城门坐着的众民和长老都说：「我们作见证。愿耶和华使进你家的这女子，像建立 以色列 家的 拉结 、 利亚 二人一样。又愿你在 以法他 得亨通，在 伯利恒 得名声。
12And may your house become like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring the LORD will give you by this young woman.”
12愿耶和华从这少年女子赐你后裔，使你的家像 她玛 从 犹大 所生 法勒斯 的家一般。」
13So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife. And when he had relations with her, the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son.
13于是， 波阿斯 娶了 路得 为妻，与她同房。耶和华使她怀孕生了一个儿子。
14Then the women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a kinsman-redeemer. May his name become famous in Israel.
14妇人们对 拿俄米 说：「耶和华是应当称颂的！因为今日没有撇下你，使你无至近的亲属。愿这孩子在 以色列 中得名声。
15He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. For your daughter-in-law, who loves you and is better to you than seven sons, has given him birth.”
15他必提起你的精神，奉养你的老，因为是爱慕你的那儿妇所生的。有这儿妇比有七个儿子还好！」
16And Naomi took the child, placed him on her lap, and became a nurse to him.
16拿俄米 就把孩子抱在怀中，作他的养母。
17The neighbor women said, “A son has been born to Naomi,” and they named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse, the father of David.
17邻舍的妇人说：「 拿俄米 得孩子了！」就给孩子起名叫 俄备得 。这 俄备得 是 耶西 的父， 耶西 是 大卫 的父。
18Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron,
18法勒斯 的后代记在下面： 法勒斯 生 希斯 ；
19Hezron was the father of Ram, Ram was the father of Amminadab,
19希斯 生 兰 ； 兰 生 亚米拿达 ；
20Amminadab was the father of Nahshon, Nahshon was the father of Salmon,
20亚米拿达 生 拿顺 ； 拿顺 生 撒门 ；
21Salmon was the father of Boaz, Boaz was the father of Obed,
21撒门 生 波阿斯 ； 波阿斯 生 俄备得 ；
22Obed was the father of Jesse, and Jesse was the father of David.
22俄备得 生 耶西 ； 耶西 生 大卫 。
