Ruth 4:4

Read Full Chapter
I thought I should inform you that you may buy it back in the presence of those seated here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you want to redeem it, do so. But if you will not redeem it, tell me so I may know, because there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.” “I will redeem it,” he replied.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
I thought to disclose it to you, saying, ‘Buy it before those who sit here, and before the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know. For there is no one to redeem it besides you; and I am after you.” He said, “I will redeem it.”
World English Bible (WEB)
And I thought{H559}{(H8804)} to advertise{H1540}{(H8799)}{H241} thee, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Buy{H7069}{(H8798)} it before the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)}, and before the elders{H2205} of my people{H5971}. If thou wilt redeem{H1350}{(H8799)} it, redeem{H1350}{(H8798)} it: but if thou wilt not redeem{H1350}{(H8799)} it, then tell{H5046}{(H8685)} me, that I may know{H3045}{(H8799)}: for there is none to redeem{H1350}{(H8800)} it beside{H2108} thee; and I am after{H310} thee. And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, I will redeem{H1350}{(H8799)} it.
