Ruth 4:14-17

Ruth 4:14-17 TPT

Then the women of Bethlehem blessed Naomi: “Praise YAHWEH, who never abandoned you nor withheld from you a kinsman-redeemer! And may his name be famous in Israel! May this child renew your life and sustain you in your old age! May your daughter-in-law, who loves you dearly, be more to you than seven sons could ever be, for she has given you a wonderful grandchild!” Then Naomi took her grandson and cuddled him in her arms and cared for him as if he were her own. The women of the neighborhood gave him a name, saying, “At last, Naomi has a son!” They named him Obed, and he became the father of Jesse, the father of David.
