Ruth 4:2

4:2 Boaz chose ten of the village leaders ¹  and said, “Sit down here!” So they sat down.

Ruth 4:13

A Grandson is Born to Naomi

4:13 So Boaz married Ruth and had sexual relations with her. ²  The Lord enabled her to conceive ³  and she gave birth to a son.

¹ tn Heb “and he took ten men from the elders of the town.”

² tn Heb “and Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife and he went in to her.” Here the phrase “went in to her” (so NASB) is a euphemism for having sexual relations (cf. NCV); NLT “When he slept with her.”

³ tn Heb “gave her conception” (so KJV); NRSV “made her conceive”; NLT “enabled her to become pregnant.”
