6 Ruth went to the threshing floor and did exactly as her mother-in-law had directed her. 7 Boaz had eaten and drunk to his heart's content, so he went and lay at the edge of a pile of grain. Then she went over to him secretly, uncovered his feet, and lay down. 8 At midnight the man was shivering. When he turned over, he was surprised to see a woman lying at his feet. 9 |Who are you?| he asked. She answered, |I am Ruth. Spread the corner of your garment over me because you are a close relative who can take care of me.| Ruth 3:6-9, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
