Boaz’ descendants

Ruth 4:13–22

4:13 Boaz’ descendants

13So Boaz married Ruth and had sexual relations with her. Yahweh enabled her to become pregnant, and she gave birth to a son. 14The women of Bethlehem said to Naomi, “Praise Yahweh for giving you a male descendant to preserve your family today. We pray to Yahweh that people throughout Israel will greatly respect him. 15Your daughter-in-law, who loves you and who’s been better to you than if you had seven sons, has given birth to him. Now he’ll make you feel young again and he’ll take care of you when you become old.” 16Then Naomi picked up the baby and held him closely and became like second mother to him.

17The women who were living nearby said, “It is as though Naomi now has a son!” They named him Obed.

Eventually Obed went on to become the father of Yesse, who became the father of King David. 18Here is a list of the descendants of Perez: Perez’s son was Hezron. 19Hezron’s son was Ram and Ram’s son was Amminadab. 20Amminadab’s son was Nahshon and Nahshon’s son was Salmon. 21Salmon’s son was Boaz and Boaz’s son was Obed. 22Obed’s son was Yesse and Yesse’s son was King David.
