11 So now, my daughter, do not fear. I will do for you whatever you say, for all [a]my people in the city know that you are (A)a woman of excellence. 12 But now, although it is true that I am a redeemer, yet there is also a redeemer more closely related than I. 13 Remain this night, and when morning comes, (B)if he will [b]redeem you, good; let him redeem you. But if he does not wish to [c]redeem you, then I will redeem you, (C)as the Lord lives. Lie down until morning.”
