Ruth 2:11-12
2:11 Boaz replied to her,
“I have been given a full report of
all that you have done for your mother-in-law following the death of your husband – how you left
your father and your mother, as well as your homeland, and came to live among people you did not know previously.
2:12 May the
Lord reward your efforts!
May your acts of kindness be repaid fully
by the
Lord God of Israel, from whom you have sought protection!”
Psalms 45:10
45:10 Listen, O princess!
Observe and pay attention!
Forget your homeland and your family!
Isaiah 14:1
14:1 The Lord will certainly have compassion on Jacob; he will again choose Israel as his special people and restore them to their land. Resident foreigners will join them and unite with the family of Jacob.
