וַיֹּ֨אמְר֜וּ כָּל־הָעָ֧ם אֲשֶׁר־בַּשַּׁ֛עַר וְהַזְּקֵנִ֖ים עֵדִ֑ים יִתֵּן֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֶֽת־הָאִשָּׁ֜ה הַבָּאָ֣ה אֶל־בֵּיתֶ֗ךָ כְּרָחֵ֤ל ׀ וּכְלֵאָה֙ אֲשֶׁ֨ר בָּנ֤וּ שְׁתֵּיהֶם֙ אֶת־בֵּ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַעֲשֵׂה־חַ֣יִל בְּאֶפְרָ֔תָה וּקְרָא־שֵׁ֖ם בְּבֵ֥ית לָֽחֶם׃
At sinabi ng buong bayan na nasa pintuang-bayan, at ng matatanda: “Kami ay mga saksi. Gawin nawa ng Walang-Hanggan ang babaeng pumapasok sa iyong bahay na tulad nina Raquel at Lea, na silang dalawa ang nagtayo ng sambahayan ng Israel. Magtamo ka nawa ng kasaganaan sa Efrata, at maging bantog ang iyong pangalan sa Bethlehem.
Tractate Kallah
A Kallah is forbidden to her husband without Birchas Chasanim in the same manner as a Niddah. Just as a Niddah who has not immersed [In Mikva] is forbidden to her husband, so likewise is a Kallah forbidden to her husband without the [marriage] brachah. From where do we know Birchas Chasanim is derived from the Torah? As it said, “And they blessed Rivkah...” (Bereshis 24:60). From where do we derive that even a widow is forbidden? As it is said, “He then took ten elders of the city…Then all the people who were at the gate, said, [we are] witnesses!...May HASHEM make the woman...May your house be like the house of Peretz...” (Rus 4:11-12, 2).
