Ruth 3:1-9

1Then Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, "My daughter, should I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?

2Is not Boaz our relative, with whose young women you were? See, he is winnowing barley tonight at the threshing floor.

3Wash therefore and anoint yourself, and put on your cloak and go down to the threshing floor, but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.

4But when he lies down, observe the place where he lies. Then go and uncover his feet and lie down, and he will tell you what to do."

5And she replied, "All that you say I will do."

6So she went down to the threshing floor and did just as her mother-in-law had commanded her.

7And when Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. Then she came softly and uncovered his feet and lay down.

8At midnight the man was startled and turned over, and behold, a woman lay at his feet!

9He said, "Who are you?" And she answered, "I am Ruth, your servant. Spread your wings over your servant, for you are a redeemer."
