And all the people who were at the gate and the elders, said, "We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman who hath come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two built the house of Israel; and do thou worthily in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem.
12
And let thy house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee by this young woman."
13
So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife; and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception and she bore a son.
14
And the women said unto Naomi, "Blessed be the LORD, who hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel.
15
And he shall be unto thee a restorer of thy life and a nourisher of thine old age; for thy daughter-in-law who loveth thee, who is better to thee than seven sons, hath borne him."
16
And Naomi took the child and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse unto it.
17
And the women, her neighbors, gave it a name, saying, "There is a son born to Naomi"; and they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.
18
Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez begot Hezron,
19
and Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminadab;
20
and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon;
21
and Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed;
