Ruth 4:7-9

New International Version

⁷ (Now in earlier times in Israel, for the redemption^(A) and transfer of property to become final, one party took off his sandal^(B) and gave it to the other. This was the method of legalizing transactions^(C) in Israel.)^(D)

⁸ So the guardian-redeemer said to Boaz, “Buy it yourself.” And he removed his sandal.^(E)

⁹ Then Boaz announced to the elders and all the people, “Today you are witnesses^(F) that I have bought from Naomi all the property of Elimelek, Kilion and Mahlon.
