Ruth 2:1-12

2:1

And Naomi
<05281>

had a kinsman
<04129> (8675) <03045> (8794)

of her husband's
<0376>_,

a mighty
<01368>

man
<0376>

of wealth
<02428>_,

of the family
<04940>

of Elimelech
<0458>_;

and his name
<08034>

[was] Boaz
<01162>_.

{Boaz: Gr. Booz}

2:2

And Ruth
<07327>

the Moabitess
<04125>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Naomi
<05281>_,

Let me now go
<03212> (8799)

to the field
<07704>_,

and glean
<03950> (8762)

ears of corn
<07641>

after
<0310>

[him] in whose sight
<05869>

I shall find
<04672> (8799)

grace
<02580>_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Go
<03212> (8798)_,

my daughter
<01323>_.

2:3

And she went
<03212> (8799)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)_,

and gleaned
<03950> (8762)

in the field
<07704>

after
<0310>

the reapers
<07114> (8802)_:

and her hap
<04745>

was to light
<07136> (8799)

on a part
<02513>

of the field
<07704>

[belonging] unto Boaz
<01162>_,

who [was] of the kindred
<04940>

of Elimelech
<0458>_.

{hap...: Heb. hap happened}

2:4

And, behold, Boaz
<01162>

came
<0935> (8802)

from Bethlehem
<01035>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto the reapers
<07114> (8802)_,

The LORD
<03068>

[be] with you. And they answered
<0559> (8799)

him, The LORD
<03068>

bless
<01288> (8762)

thee.

2:5

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Boaz
<01162>

unto his servant
<05288>

that was set
<05324> (8737)

over the reapers
<07114> (8802)_,

Whose damsel
<05291>

[is] this?

2:6

And the servant
<05288>

that was set
<05324> (8737)

over the reapers
<07114> (8802)

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] the Moabitish
<04125>

damsel
<05291>

that came back
<07725> (8804)

with Naomi
<05281>

out of the country
<07704>

of Moab
<04124>_:

2:7

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

I pray you, let me glean
<03950> (8762)

and gather
<0622> (8804)

after
<0310>

the reapers
<07114> (8802)

among the sheaves
<06016>_:

so she came
<0935> (8799)_,

and hath continued
<05975> (8799)

even
<0227>

from the morning
<01242>

until now, that she tarried
<03427> (8800)

a little
<04592>

in the house
<01004>_.

2:8

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Boaz
<01162>

unto Ruth
<07327>_,

Hearest
<08085> (8804)

thou not, my daughter
<01323>_?

Go
<03212> (8799)

not to glean
<03950> (8800)

in another
<0312>

field
<07704>_,

neither go
<05674> (8799)

from hence, but abide
<01692> (8799)

here fast by my maidens
<05291>_:

2:9

[Let] thine eyes
<05869>

[be] on the field
<07704>

that they do reap
<07114> (8799)_,

and go
<01980> (8804)

thou after
<0310>

them: have I not charged
<06680> (8765)

the young men
<05288>

that they shall not touch
<05060> (8800)

thee? and when thou art athirst
<06770> (8804)_,

go
<01980> (8804)

unto the vessels
<03627>_,

and drink
<08354> (8804)

of [that] which the young men
<05288>

have drawn
<07579> (8799)_.

2:10

Then she fell
<05307> (8799)

on her face
<06440>_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

herself to the ground
<0776>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Why have I found
<04672> (8804)

grace
<02580>

in thine eyes
<05869>_,

that thou shouldest take knowledge
<05234> (8687)

of me, seeing I [am] a stranger
<05237>_?

2:11

And Boaz
<01162>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, It hath fully
<05046> (8715)

been shewed
<05046> (8717)

me, all that thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

unto thy mother in law
<02545>

since
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of thine husband
<0376>_:

and [how] thou hast left
<05800> (8799)

thy father
<01>

and thy mother
<0517>_,

and the land
<0776>

of thy nativity
<04138>_,

and art come
<03212> (8799)

unto a people
<05971>

which thou knewest
<03045> (8804)

not heretofore
<08543> <08032>_.

2:12

The LORD
<03068>

recompense
<07999> (8762)

thy work
<06467>_,

and a full
<08003>

reward
<04909>

be given thee of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

under whose wings
<03671>

thou art come
<0935> (8804)

to trust
<02620> (8800)_.
