ગુજરાતીરૂથ ૪:૧૦
વળી મૃત્યુ પામેલાંના વારસા ઉપર તેનું નામ જળવાઈ રહે તે માટે માહલોનની પત્ની એટલે મોઆબી રૂથને મેં મારી પત્ની થવા સારું સ્વીકારી છે. જેથી મૃત્યુ પામેલાંનું નામ, તેના ભાઈઓ તથા તેના સ્થાનમાંથી નષ્ટ ન થાય. આજે તમે તેના સાક્ષીઓ છો.”
हिन्दीरूत ४:१०
फिर महलोन की स्त्री रूत मोआबिन को भी मैं अपनी पत्नी करने के लिये इस मनसा से मोल लेता हूँ, कि मरे हुए का नाम उसके निज भाग पर स्थिर करूँ, कहीं ऐसा न हो कि मरे हुए का नाम उसके भाइयों में से और उसके स्थान के फाटक से मिट जाए; तुम लोग आज साक्षी ठहरे हो।”

In context

8So the near kinsman said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” then he took off his sandal.

9Boaz said to the elders and to all the people, “You are witnesses today, that I have bought all that was Elimelech’s, and all that was Chilion’s and Mahlon’s, from the hand of Naomi.

10Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, I have purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his place. You are witnesses today.”

11All the people who were in the gate, and the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman who has come into your house like Rachel and like Leah, which both built the house of Israel; and treat you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Bethlehem.

12Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the offspring which the LORD will give you by this young woman.”
