Ruth 2:17-23
17So she gleanedH3950 in the fieldH7704 untilH5704 eveningH6153. Then she beatH2251 outH2251 whatH834 she had gleanedH3950, and it was about an 1ephahH374 of barleyH8184.
18And she pickedH5375 it upH5375 and wentH935 into the cityH5892, and her mother-in-lawH2545 sawH7200 whatH834 she had gleanedH3950. She also tookH3318 some outH3318 and 2gaveH5414 3Naomi whatH834 she hadH3498 leftH3498 afterH4480 4she was satisfiedH7648.
19Her mother-in-lawH2545 then saidH559 to her, “WhereH375 did you gleanH3950 todayH3117 and whereH575 did you workH6213? May he who 5tookH5234 noticeH5234 of you be blessedH1288.” So she toldH5046 her mother-in-lawH2545 with whomH834 she had workedH6213, and saidH559, “The nameH8034 of the manH376 with whomH834 I workedH6213 todayH3117 is BoazH1162.”
20NaomiH5281 saidH559 to her daughter-in-lawH3618, “6May he be blessedH1288 of the LordH3068 whoH834 has not withdrawnH5800 His kindnessH2617 from the livingH2416 and from the deadH4191.” Again NaomiH5281 saidH559 to her, “The manH376 is our relativeH7138; he is one of our 7redeemersH1350.”
21Then RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125 saidH559, “8FurthermoreH1571, he saidH559 to me, ‘You are to stayH1692 closeH1692 to my servantsH5288 untilH5704H518 they have finishedH3615 allH3605 my harvestH7105.’”
22And NaomiH5281 saidH559 to her daughter-in-lawH3618 RuthH7327, “It is goodH2896, my daughterH1323, that you goH3318 outH3318 with his youngH5291 womenH5291, so that others do not assaultH6293 you in anotherH312 fieldH7704.”
23So she stayedH1692 closeH1692 by the youngH5291 womenH5291 of BoazH1162 in order to gleanH3950 untilH5704 9the endH3615 of the barleyH8184 harvestH7105 and the wheatH2406 harvestH7105. And she livedH3427 with her mother-in-lawH2545.
