1Then NaomiH5281 her mother-in-lawH2545 saidH559 to her, “My daughterH1323, shall I not seekH1245 1securityH4494 for you, that it may be wellH3190 with you? 2NowH6258 is not BoazH1162 2our 3kinsmanH4130, with whoseH834 maidsH5291 you were? BeholdH2009, he winnowsH2219 barleyH8184 at the threshingH1637 floorH1637 tonightH3915. 3WashH7364 yourself therefore, and anointH5480 yourself and putH7760 on your best clothesH8071, and goH3381 downH3381 to the threshingH1637 floorH1637; but do not makeH3045 yourself knownH3045 to the manH376 untilH5704 he has finishedH3615 eatingH398 and drinkingH8354. 4It shall be when he liesH7901 downH7901, that you shall 4noticeH3045 the placeH4725 whereH834H8033 he liesH7901, and you shall goH935 and uncoverH1540 his feetH4772 and lieH7901 downH7901; then he will tellH5046 you whatH834 you shall doH6213.” 5She saidH559 to her, “5AllH3605 that you sayH559 I will doH6213.”
