UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

וַ⁠יִּקַּ֨ח בֹּ֤עַז אֶת־רוּת֙ וַ⁠תְּהִי־ל֣⁠וֹ לְ⁠אִשָּׁ֔ה

and=he/it_took Boˊaz DOM Rūt and=it_became to=him/it to/for=(a)_woman

These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second clause emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine the clauses into one clause. Alternate translation: "So Boaz took Ruth home to be his wife"

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וַ⁠יִּקַּ֨ח בֹּ֤עַז אֶת־רוּת֙

and=he/it_took Boˊaz DOM Rūt

The word translated as So indicates that Boaz did what he said he would do in verse 4:10. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. This phrase does not imply any form of violence. Along with the following phrase, it simply means that Boaz married Ruth. Use a connecting word that indicates that this action by Boaz is a result of the agreement in verse 4:10.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

וַ⁠יָּבֹ֖א אֵלֶ֑י⁠הָ

and,went to=her/it

The phrase, he went in to her is a polite way of referring to sexual intercourse. Use a polite way of referring to this in your language, or, if it is not offensive, you could state this plainly. Alternate translation: “and he slept with her”
