Ruth 2:17-23
17So she gleanedH3950 in the fieldH7704 until evenH6153, and beat outH2251 that she had gleanedH3950: and it was about an ephahH374 of barleyH8184.
18And she took it upH5375, and wentH935 into the cityH5892: and her mother in lawH2545 sawH7200 what she had gleanedH3950: and she brought forthH3318, and gaveH5414 to her that she had reservedH3498 after she was sufficedH7648. 19And her mother in lawH2545 saidH559 unto her, Where hast thou gleanedH3950 to dayH3117? and whereH375 wroughtestH6213 thou? blessedH1288 be he that did take knowledgeH5234 of thee. And she shewedH5046 her mother in lawH2545 with whom she had wroughtH6213, and saidH559, The man’sH376 nameH8034 with whom I wroughtH6213 to dayH3117 is BoazH1162. 20And NaomiH5281 saidH559 unto her daughter in lawH3618, BlessedH1288 be he of YhwhH3068, who hath not left offH5800 his kindnessH2617 to the livingH2416 and to the deadH4191. And NaomiH5281 saidH559 unto her, The manH376 is near of kinH7138 unto us, one of our next kinsmenH1350.1 21And RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125 saidH559, He saidH559 unto me also, Thou shalt keep fastH1692 by my young menH5288, until they have endedH3615 all my harvestH7105. 22And NaomiH5281 saidH559 unto RuthH7327 her daughter in lawH3618, It is goodH2896, my daughterH1323, that thou go outH3318 with his maidensH5291, that they meetH6293 thee not in any otherH312 fieldH7704.2 23So she kept fastH1692 by the maidensH5291 of BoazH1162 to gleanH3950 unto the endH3615 of barleyH8184 harvestH7105 and of wheatH2406 harvestH7105; and dweltH3427 with her mother in lawH2545.
