1 Then Naomi 5281 her mother in law 2545 said 559 unto her, My daughter 1323, shall I not seek 1245 rest 4494 for thee, that it may be well 3190 with thee?
2 And now is not Boaz 1162 of our kindred 4130, with whose maidens 5291 thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth 2219 barley 8184 to night 3915 in the threshingfloor 1637.
3 Wash 7364 thyself therefore, and anoint 5480 thee, and put 7760 thy raiment 8071 upon thee, and get thee down 3381 to the floor 1637: but make not thyself known 3045 unto the man 376, until he shall have done 3615 eating 398 and drinking 8354.
4 And it shall be, when he lieth down 7901, that thou shalt mark 3045 the place 4725 where he shall lie 7901, and thou shalt go in 935, and uncover 1540 his feet 4772, and lay thee down 7901; and he will tell 5046 thee what thou shalt do 6213.
5 And she said 559 unto her, All that thou sayest 559 unto me I will do 6213.
6 And she went down 3381 unto the floor 1637, and did 6213 according to all that her mother in law 2545 bade 6680 her.
7 And when Boaz 1162 had eaten 398 and drunk 8354, and his heart 3820 was merry 3190, he went 935 to lie down 7901 at the end 7097 of the heap of corn 6194: and she came 935 softly 3909, and uncovered 1540 his feet 4772, and laid her down 7901.
8 And it came to pass at midnight 2677 3915, that the man 376 was afraid 2729, and turned 3943 himself: and, behold, a woman 802 lay 7901 at his feet 4772.
9 And he said 559, Who art thou? And she answered 559, I am Ruth 7327 thine handmaid 519: spread 6566 therefore thy skirt 3671 over thine handmaid 519; for thou art a near kinsman 1350.
10 And he said 559, Blessed 1288 be thou of the LORD 3068, my daughter 1323: for thou hast shewed 3190 more kindness 2617 in the latter end 314 than at the beginning 7223, inasmuch as thou followedst 3212 310 not 1115 young men 970, whether poor 1800 or rich 6223.
11 And now, my daughter 1323, fear 3372 not; I will do 6213 to thee all that thou requirest 559: for all the city 8179 of my people 5971 doth know 3045 that thou art a virtuous 2428 woman 802.
12 And now it is true 551 that I am thy near kinsman 1350: howbeit there is 3426 a kinsman 1350 nearer 7138 than I.
13 Tarry 3885 this night 3915, and it shall be in the morning 1242, that if he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman 1350, well 2896; let him do the kinsman's part 1350: but if he will 2654 not do the part of a kinsman 1350 to thee, then will I do the part of a kinsman 1350 to thee, as the LORD 3068 liveth 2416: lie down 7901 until the morning 1242.
14 And she lay 7901 at his feet 4772 until the morning 1242: and she rose up 6965 before 2958 one 376 could know 5234 another 7453. And he said 559, Let it not be known 3045 that a woman 802 came 935 into the floor 1637.
15 Also he said 559, Bring 3051 the vail 4304 that thou hast upon thee, and hold 270 it. And when she held 270 it, he measured 4058 six 8337 measures of barley 8184, and laid 7896 it on her: and she went 935 into the city 5892.
16 And when she came 935 to her mother in law 2545, she said 559, Who art thou, my daughter 1323? And she told 5046 her all that the man 376 had done 6213 to her.
17 And she said 559, These six 8337 measures of barley 8184 gave 5414 he me; for he said 559 to me, Go 935 not empty 7387 unto thy mother in law 2545.
18 Then said 559 she, Sit still 3427, my daughter 1323, until thou know 3045 how the matter 1697 will fall 5307: for the man 376 will not be in rest 8252, until 518 he have finished 3615 the thing 1697 this day 3117.
