Ruth 4:13-22
Ruth gives birth to a son called Obed
13 So Boaz married Ruth. He lived with her as his wife. The Lord blessed her so that she became pregnant. She gave birth to a son. 14 The women of Bethlehem said to Naomi, ‘We praise the Lord! Today, he has given you a relative to take care of you! We pray that the child will become famous everywhere in Israel! 15 He will help you to feel young again. He will take care of you when you are old. Your son's wife, Ruth, has given birth to this boy. She loves you and she has helped you more than seven sons could ever do.’
16 Naomi took the child and she held him near to her. She took care of him as if he was her own son. 17 The women who lived there said, ‘Now Naomi has a son again!’ They called the boy Obed. He became the father of Jesse, who became the father of David.
