Ruth 4:11-13

New Century Version

¹¹ So all the people and elders who were at the city gate said, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make this woman, who is coming into your home, like Rachel and Leah, who had many children and built up the people of Israel. May you become powerful in the district of Ephrathah and famous in Bethlehem. ¹² As Tamar gave birth to Judah’s son Perez,^[a] may the Lord give you many children through Ruth. May your family be great like his.”

¹³ So Boaz took Ruth home as his wife and had sexual relations with her. The Lord let her become pregnant, and she gave birth to a son.
