Ruth 3:12-18
12YesH3588, it is trueH551 thatH3588 IH595 am a kinsman-redeemerH1350, butH1571 there isH3426 a redeemerH1350 nearerH7138 than IH4480.1 13Stay here tonightH3885H3915H1961, and in the morningH1242, ifH518 he wants to redeem youH1350, goodH2896. Let him redeem youH1350. But ifH518 he does notH3808 wantH2654 to redeem youH1350, as surely as the LORDH3068 livesH2416, IH595 willH1350. Now lie hereH7901 untilH5704 morningH1242.”
14So she lay downH7901 at his feetH4772 untilH5704 morningH1242, but she got upH6965 beforeH2958 anyoneH376 elseH7453 could recognize herH5234.
Then Boaz saidH559, “Do notH408 let it be knownH3045 thatH3588 a womanH802 cameH935 to the threshing floorH1637.” 15And he told herH559, “BringH3051 the shawlH4304 you are wearingH5921 and holdH270 it out.” When sheH270 did so, he poured inH4058 sixH8337 measures of barleyH81842 and placed itH7896 on herH5921. Then he wentH9353 into the cityH5892.
16When Ruth returnedH935 toH413 her mother-in-lawH2545, Naomi asked herH559, “How did it goH4310H859, my daughterH1323?”
Then Ruth toldH5046 her allH3605 thatH834 Boaz had doneH6213 for her. 17And she saidH559, “He gaveH5414 me theseH428 sixH8337 measures of barleyH8184, forH3588 he saidH559, ‘Do notH408 go backH935 toH413 your mother-in-lawH2545 empty-handedH7387.’”
18“WaitH3427, my daughterH1323,” said NaomiH559, “untilH5704 you find outH3045 howH349 thingsH1697 goH5307, forH3588 heH376 will notH3808 restH8252 unlessH3588H518 he has resolvedH3615 the matterH1697 todayH3117.”
