Holman Christian Standard Bible
The redeemer replied, “ I can’t redeem it myself, or I will ruin my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption, because I can’t redeem it.”

New American Standard Bible
The closest relative said, "I cannot redeem [it] for myself, because I would jeopardize my own inheritance. Redeem [it] for yourself; you [may have] my right of redemption, for I cannot redeem [it]."

King James Bible
And the kinsman said, I cannot redeem [it] for myself, lest I mar mine own inheritance: redeem thou my right to thyself; for I cannot redeem [it]. International Standard Version
At this, the nearer related redeemer replied, "Then I am unable to act as related redeemer, because that would complicate my own inheritance. You act instead as the related redeemer, because I cannot do so."

American Standard Version
And the near kinsman said, I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I mar mine own inheritance: take thou my right of redemption on thee; for I cannot redeem it.

Young's Literal Translation
And the redeemer saith, 'I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I destroy mine inheritance; redeem for thyself -- thou -- my right of redemption, for I am not able to redeem.'Ruth 4:6 • Ruth 4:6 NIV • Ruth 4:6 NLT • Ruth 4:6 ESV • Ruth 4:6 NASB • Ruth 4:6 KJV • Ruth 4:6 Commentaries • Ruth 4:6 Bible Apps • Ruth 4:6 Biblia Paralela • Ruth 4:6 Chinese Bible • Ruth 4:6 French Bible • Ruth 4:6 German Bible
