Ruth 3:11-16

3:11

And now, my daughter
<01323>_,

fear
<03372> (8799)

not; I will do
<06213> (8799)

to thee all that thou requirest
<0559> (8799)_:

for all the city
<08179>

of my people
<05971>

doth know
<03045> (8802)

that thou [art] a virtuous
<02428>

woman
<0802>_.

{city: Heb. gate}

3:12

And now it is true
<0551>

that I [am thy] near kinsman
<01350> (8802)_:

howbeit there is
<03426>

a kinsman
<01350> (8802)

nearer
<07138>

than I.

3:13

Tarry
<03885> (8798)

this night
<03915>_,

and it shall be in the morning
<01242>_,

[that] if he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman
<01350> (8799)_,

well
<02896>_;

let him do the kinsman's part
<01350> (8799)_:

but if he will
<02654> (8799)

not do the part of a kinsman
<01350> (8800)

to thee, then will I do the part of a kinsman
<01350> (8804)

to thee, [as] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_:

lie down
<07901> (8798)

until the morning
<01242>_.

3:14

And she lay
<07901> (8799)

at his feet
<04772>

until the morning
<01242>_:

and she rose up
<06965> (8799)

before
<02958>

one
<0376>

could know
<05234> (8686)

another
<07453>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let it not be known
<03045> (8735)

that a woman
<0802>

came
<0935> (8804)

into the floor
<01637>_.

3:15

Also he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Bring
<03051> (8798)

the vail
<04304>

that [thou hast] upon thee, and hold
<0270> (8798)

it. And when she held
<0270> (8799)

it, he measured
<04058> (8799)

six
<08337>

[measures] of barley
<08184>_,

and laid
<07896> (8799)

[it] on her: and she went
<0935> (8799)

into the city
<05892>_.

{vail: or, sheet, or, apron}

3:16

And when she came
<0935> (8799)

to her mother in law
<02545>_,

she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who [art] thou, my daughter
<01323>_?

And she told
<05046> (8686)

her all that the man
<0376>

had done
<06213> (8804)

to her.
