Ruth 3:6-13

6So she went down to the threshing floor and did according to all that her mother-in-law had commanded her. 7When Boaz had eaten and drunk and 1his heart was cheerful, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain; and she came secretly, and uncovered his feet and lay down. 8And it happened in the middle of the night that the man was startled and 2bent forward; and behold, a woman was lying at his feet. 9So he said, “Who are you?” And she answered, “I am Ruth your slave. Now spread your garment over your slave, for you are a redeemer.” 10Then he said, “3May you be blessed of the Lord, my daughter. You have shown your last kindness to be better than the first, by not going after young men, whether poor or rich. 11So now, my daughter, do not fear. I will do for you whatever you say, for all 4my people in the city know that you are 5a woman of excellence. 12But now, although it is true that I am a redeemer, yet there is also a redeemer more closely related than I. 13Remain this night, and when morning comes, 6if he will 7redeem you, good; let him redeem you. But if he does not wish to 8redeem you, then I will redeem you, 9as the Lord lives. Lie down until morning.”
