If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother unto her. {her husband's...: or, her next kinsman}

And Naomi said unto her daughter in law, Blessed {be} he of the LORD, who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said unto her, The man {is} near of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen. {one of...: or, one that hath right to redeem}

And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name {was} Boaz. {Boaz: Gr. Booz}

Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens:

For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified {are} all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name {was} Boaz. {Boaz: Gr. Booz}

If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away {some} of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.
