Ruth 4:10-12
Legacy Standard Bible
10 And also, I have acquired Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, to be my wife in order to raise up the name of the one who had died, on behalf of his inheritance, so (A)that the name of the one who had died will not be cut off from his brothers or from the gate of his birth place; you are witnesses today.” 11 And all the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May Yahweh grant the woman who is coming into your home to be (B)like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel, and so you shall [a]achieve [b]excellence in Ephrathah and shall [c]proclaim your name in Bethlehem. 12 Moreover, may your house be like the house of (C)Perez whom Tamar bore to Judah, through the seed which Yahweh will grant you by this young woman.”

10 I have also acquired Ruth the Moabite,(A) Mahlon’s widow, as my wife,(B) in order to maintain the name of the dead with his property, so that his name will not disappear from among his family or from his hometown.(C) Today you are witnesses!(D)”
11 Then the elders and all the people at the gate(E) said, “We are witnesses.(F) May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your home like Rachel and Leah,(G) who together built up the family of Israel. May you have standing in Ephrathah(H) and be famous in Bethlehem.(I) 12 Through the offspring the Lord gives you by this young woman, may your family be like that of Perez,(J) whom Tamar(K) bore to Judah.”
