Ruth 3:1-9

1One day Ruth’s mother-in-lawH2545 NaomiH5281 saidH559 to her, “My daughterH1323, should I notH3808 seekH1245 a resting placeH4494 for you, thatH834 it may be wellH3190 with you? 2NowH6258 is notH3808 BoazH1162, withH854 whoseH834 servant girlsH5291 you have beenH1961 working, a relative of oursH4130? In factH2009, tonightH3915 heH1931 is winnowingH2219 barleyH8184 on the threshing floorH1637. 3Therefore wash yourselfH7364, put on perfumeH5480, and wearH7760 your best clothesH8071H5921. Go downH3381 to the threshing floorH1637, but do notH408 let the manH376 knowH3045 you are there untilH5704 he has finishedH3615 eatingH398 and drinkingH8354. 4When he lies downH7901, noteH3045 the placeH4725 whereH834 he liesH7901H8033. Then go inH935 and uncoverH1540 his feetH4772, and lie downH7901, and heH1931 will explainH5046 to you whatH834 you should doH6213.”

5“I will doH6213 everythingH3605 you sayH559,” Ruth answeredH559. 6So she went downH3381 to the threshing floorH1637 and didH6213 everythingH3605 her mother-in-lawH2545 had instructed herH6680 to do.

7After BoazH1162 had finished eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 and was in good spiritsH3190H3820, he wentH935 to lie downH7901 at the endH7097 of the heap of grainH6194. Then Ruth went in secretlyH935H3909, uncoveredH1540 his feetH4772, and lay downH7901.

At midnightH2677H3915, BoazH376 was startledH2729, turned overH3943, and thereH2009 lyingH7901 at his feetH4772 was a womanH802!

9“WhoH4310 are youH859?” he askedH559.

“IH595 am your servantH519 RuthH7327,” she repliedH559. “SpreadH6566 the corner of your garmentH36711 overH5921 meH519, forH3588 youH859 are a kinsman-redeemerH1350.2”
