25 “‘In case your brother grows poor and has to sell some of his possession, a repurchaser closely related to him must also come and buy back what his brother sold.+

49 Or his uncle or the son of his uncle may buy him back, or any blood relative of his flesh,+ one of his family, may buy him back.

“‘Or if his own hand has become wealthy, he must also buy himself back.+

3 He now said to the repurchaser:+ “The tract of the field that belonged to our brother E·limʹe·lech,+ Naʹo·mi, who has returned from the field of Moʹab,+ must sell.

8 In time Hanʹa·mel the son of my paternal uncle came in to me, according to the word of Jehovah, into the Courtyard of the Guard,+ and proceeded to say to me: “Buy,* please, the field of mine that is in Anʹa·thoth,+ which is in the land of Benjamin,+ for the right of hereditary possession is yours, and the repurchasing power is yours. Buy [it] for yourself.” At that I knew that it had been the word of Jehovah.+
