1Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there. Behold, the near kinsman of whom Boaz spoke came by. Boaz said to him, “Come over here, friend, and sit down!” He came over, and sat down.
2Te phoeiah khopuei kah a hamca rhoek te hlang parha a loh tih, “Hela ngol uh dae,” a ti nah vanbangla amih khaw ngol uh.
2Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, “Sit down here,” and they sat down.
3Te vaengah aka tlan koi taengah, “Mamih kah manuca Elimelekh khohmuen kah lo aka yoi Noami tah Moab kho lamkah ha bal coeng.
3He said to the near kinsman, “Naomi, who has come back out of the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land, which was our brother Elimelech’s.

4I thought I should tell you, saying, ‘Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.” He said, “I will redeem it.”
5Te vaengah Boaz loh, “Naomi neh aka duek kah a yuu Moab nu Ruth kut lamkah khohmuen na lai khohnin vaengah aka duek ming te thoh pah ham ni a rho khaw na lai eh?,” a ti nah.
5Then Boaz said, “On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must buy it also from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance.”
6Tedae aka tlan loh, “Kamah loh ka tlan ham akhaw a tlan ham ka noeng moenih. Ka rho he ka porhak sak ve. Namah ham na tlan mako. Ka tlannah neh tlan ham ka noeng moenih,” a ti nah.
6The near kinsman said, “I can’t redeem it for myself, lest I endanger my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption for yourself; for I can’t redeem it.”

7Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning exchanging, to confirm all things: a man took off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbor; and this was the way of formalizing transactions in Israel.
8Te dongah aka tlan tueng loh Boaz taengah, “Namah ham lai laeh,” a ti nah tih a khokhom te a dul.
8So the near kinsman said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” then he took off his sandal.

9Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses today, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, from the hand of Naomi.
10Te dongah amah koe neh aka duek ming thoh pah ham ni Mahlon yurho, Moab nu Ruth khaw ka yuu la ka lai coeng. Te phoeiah aka duek kah a ming te a pacaboeina khui lamkah neh te hmuen vongka lamloh a muei pawt ham khaw tihnin ah laipai la na om uh coeng,” a ti nah.
10Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”
11Te vaengah vongka kah pilnam boeih neh a hamca rhoek loh, “Laipai la ka om uh coeng. Na im khuila aka kun huta tah, BOEIPA loh Israel imkhui aka thoh rhoi Rakhel neh Leah bangla khueh saeh. Epharath ah thadueng la om saeh lamtah Bethlehem ah a ming om saeh.
11All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which both built the house of Israel; and treat you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem.
12Hekah hula dongah BOEIPA loh nang m'paek na tii na ngan lamloh na imkhui khaw Tamar loh Judah ham a sak Perez imkhui bangla om saeh,” a ti nauh.
12Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which the LORD will give you by this young woman.”

14The women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you today without a near kinsman. Let his name be famous in Israel.

15He shall be to you a restorer of life and sustain you in your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.”
16Camoe te Naomi loh a loh tih a rhang dongah a poem. Te dongah anih te camoe aka poeh la om.
16Naomi took the child, laid him in her bosom, and became nurse to him.
17Imben rhoek long khaw, “Naomi ham ca tongpa om coeng,” a ti uh camoe te a ming a sak pauh. Te dongah a ming te Obed a sak pauh. Anih tah Jesse napa tih, Jesse tah David napa la om.
17The women, her neighbors, gave him a name, saying, “A son is born to Naomi”. They named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

18Now this is the history of the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron,
19Khetsron loh Ram a sak tih Ram loh Amminadab a sak.
