Ruth 3:1-9 ▼

1 And Naomi her mother-in-law will say to her My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it shall be well to thee?

2 And now is not Boaz from our acquaintance of whom thou wert with his maidens? Behold him winnowing the threshing-floor of barley this night.

3 And wash thou and anoint thyself, and put thy garments upon thee, and go down to the threshing-floor: thou shalt not make thyself known to the man till his finishing to eat and to drink.

4 And it will be in his lying down, and know thou the place where he shall lie down there, and go in and uncover from his feet, and lie down; and he will announce to thee what thou shalt do.

5 And she will say to her, All that thou shalt say to me, I will do.

6 And she will go down to the threshing-floor and she will do according to all that her mother-in-law commanded her.

7 And Boaz will eat and drink, and his heart will be done good to; and he will go to lie down upon the end of the heap: and she will come secretly and she will uncover from his feet, and lie down.

8 And it will be in the middle of the night, and the man will be terrified: and he will turn and behold a woman lying from his feet.

9 And he will say, Who art thou? And she will say, I am Ruth thy servant: and spread thy wing over thy servant, for thou a blood relation.
