RUTH 4

14 The women of Bethlehem said to Naomi, "Praise Yahweh! Now he has given [LIT] you a grandson who will be the one who will have the responsibility to take care of you. We hope that he will become famous [MTY] throughout Israel. 15 He will make you feel young again, and he will take care of you when you become old. Your daughter-in-law, who loves you, has given birth to a son, who will ◄be better to/do more for► you than if you had seven sons of your own."

16 Then Naomi took the baby and put him on her lap, and took care of him. 17 The women who were living near her said, "It is as though Naomi now has a son!" And they named him Obed. Later, Obed became the father of Jesse, and later Jesse became the father of King David.
