*
So she gleaned in the field until even ,
and beat out that she had gleaned :
and it was about an ephah of barley .
*
And she took it up ,
and went into the city :
and her mother in law saw what she had gleaned :
and she brought forth ,
and gave to her that she had reserved after she was sufficed .
*
And her mother in law said unto her ,
Where hast thou gleaned to day ?
and where wroughtest thou ?
blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee .
And she shewed her mother in law with whom she had wrought ,
and said ,
The man '
s name with whom I wrought to day is Boaz .
*
And Naomi said unto her daughter in law ,
Blessed be he of the LORD ,
who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead .
And Naomi said unto her ,
The man is near of kin unto us ,
one of our next kinsmen .
*
And Ruth the Moabitess said ,
He said unto me also ,
Thou shalt keep fast by my young men ,
until they have ended all my harvest .
*
And Naomi said unto Ruth her daughter in law ,
It is good ,
my daughter ,
that thou go out with his maidens ,
that they meet thee not in any other field .
*
So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest ;
and dwelt with her mother in law .
