Story
Ruth III
Then Naomi thought
of securing a husband for Ruth and so she directed her to Boaz.
Now Ruth went to Boaz and said, "Take your maidservant under
your wing, for you are a close relative." Boaz assured her
to do everything to help her. And further he said, "It is true
that I am a close relative; however, there is a relative closer
than I. If he will perform the duty of a close relative for you;
good; let him do it. But if he does not want to perform the duty
for you, then I will perform the duty for you, as the LORD lives!
Then he provided her with barley filled in her shawl and sent her
home. Ruth returned to the city and told everything that happened
to her mother-in-law. She also showed the barley given to her by
Boaz saying, "Do not go empty-handed to your mother-in-law.'"
Naomi told her to wait and see what happens in that matter.
The next day morning Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there
then the other close relative also came there. So Boaz said, "Come
aside, friend, sit down here." So he came aside and sat down.
And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, "Sit
down here." So they sat down. Then Boaz said to the close relative,
"Naomi sold the piece of land which belongs to our brother
Elimelech. If you want to buy it back, you should do it because
you are the close relative who is authorized to redeem this land."
So the close relative told him that he wanted to buy that land.
And Boaz told him, "if you want to buy the land, you also need
to marry Ruth according to the custom of Israel."
When the other relative heard that, he backed up and said, "I
do not want to do that, so you can go ahead and buy the land and
marry Ruth.
And to confirm this the close relative of Naomi took off his sandal
and gave it to Boaz And Boaz said to the elders and all the people,
"You are witnesses this day that I have bought all that was
Elimelech's, and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's, from the hand
of Naomi. Moreover, I take Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon,
as my wife. And all the people who were at the gate, and the elders,
said, "We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman who is coming
to your house like Rachel and Leah, the two who built the house
of Israel; and may you prosper in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem."
So they blessed Boaz.
Boaz and Ruth got married and had a son named Obed who became the
grandfather of David. Obed's birth brought joy to Naomi and Ruth's
life. They praised God for the blessings God gave to them. There
is a God who is the restorer of our lives.
