So stay here for the night. In the morning if he wants to help you, good. Let him help you. But if he doesn’t want to, then I’ll do it. You can be sure that the Lord lives. And you can be just as sure that I’ll help you. Lie down here until morning.”

波阿斯说：“那么，你从拿俄米手中买地的那天，也要娶已死之人的妻子摩押女子路得，好让死者继续在产业上留名。”

人总是指着比自己更大的起誓，并用誓言作保证，了结各样的争论。

说：“老师，摩西说，‘如果一个人死了，没有儿女，只留下妻子，他的兄弟就当娶嫂嫂，替哥哥传宗接代。’从前，我们这里有弟兄七人，老大结了婚，没有孩子就死了，把妻子留给了弟弟。二弟、三弟一直到七弟都相继娶了嫂嫂，都没留下孩子。最后，那女人也死了。

“如果兄弟们住在一起，其中一个没有儿子便死了，死者的妻子不可改嫁给外人。死者的兄弟要尽兄弟的责任娶她为妻。她生的第一个儿子要算为死者的儿子，免得死者在以色列绝后。如果死者的兄弟不愿娶那寡妇，她要到城门口见长老们，告诉他们，‘我丈夫的兄弟不肯尽兄弟的责任娶我，不肯为我丈夫留后。’长老们要把死者的兄弟召来，与他商谈。如果他执意不肯，那寡妇要当着众长老的面，上前脱下他的鞋，吐唾沫在他脸上，说，‘这就是不肯为兄弟留后之人的下场。’

我求上帝为我作证：我没有去哥林多，是为了宽容你们。
