Ruth 3

1 By Naomi's instruction, 5 Ruth lieth at Boaz's feet. 8 Boaz acknowledgeth the right of a kinsman. 14 He sendeth her away with six measures of barley.

 3:1 ¶ Then Naomi 5281 her mother-in-law 2545 said 559 z8799 unto her, My daughter, 1323 shall I not x3808 seek 1245 z8762 rest 4494 for thee, that x834 it may be well 3190 z8799 with thee?

 3:2 And now x6258 [is] not x3808 Boaz 1162 of our kindred, 4130 with x854 whose x834 maidens 5291 thou wast? x1961 Behold, x2009 he x1931 winnoweth 2219 z8802 barley 8184 tonight 3915 in x853 the threshingfloor. 1637

 3:3 Wash 7364 z8804 thyself therefore, and anoint 5480 z8804 thee, and put 7760 z8804 thy raiment 8071 upon x5921 thee, and get thee down 3381 z8804 to the floor: 1637 [but] make not thyself known 3045 z8735 x408 unto the man, 376 until x5704 he shall have done 3615 z8763 eating 398 z8800 and drinking. 8354 z8800

 3:4 And it shall be, x1961 when he lieth down, 7901 z8800 that thou shalt mark 3045 z8804 x853 the place 4725 where x834 x8033 he shall lie, 7901 z8799 and thou shalt go in, 935 z8804 and uncover 1540 z8765 his feet, 4772 and lay thee down; 7901 z8804 and he x1931 will tell 5046 z8686 thee x853 what x834 thou shalt do. 6213 z8799

 3:5 And she said 559 z8799 unto x413 her, All x3605 that x834 thou sayest 559 z8799 unto x413 me I will do. 6213 z8799

 3:6 ¶ And she went down 3381 z8799 unto the floor, 1637 and did 6213 z8799 according to all x3605 that x834 her mother-in-law 2545 bade 6680 z8765 her.

 3:7 And when Boaz 1162 had eaten 398 z8799 and drunk, 8354 z8799 and his heart 3820 was merry, 3190 z8799 he went 935 z8799 to lie down 7901 z8800 at the end 7097 of the heap of corn: 6194 and she came 935 z8799 softly, 3909 and uncovered 1540 z8762 his feet, 4772 and laid her down. 7901 z8799

 3:8 ¶ And it came to pass x1961 at midnight, 2677 3915 that the man 376 was afraid, 2729 z8799 and turned y3943 z8735 himself: x3943 and, behold, x2009 a woman 802 lay 7901 z8802 at his feet. 4772

 3:9 And he said, 559 z8799 Who x4310 [art] thou? x859 And she answered, 559 z8799 I x595 [am] Ruth 7327 thine handmaid: 519 spread 6566 z8804 therefore thy skirt 3671 over x5921 thine handmaid; 519 for x3588 thou x859 [art] a near kinsman. 1350 z8802

 3:10 And he said, 559 z8799 Blessed 1288 z8803 [be] thou x859 of the LORD, 3068 my daughter: 1323 [for] thou hast showed y3190 z8689 more x3190 kindness 2617 in the latter end 314 than x4480 at the beginning, 7223 inasmuch as thou followedst 310 y3212 z8800 x1980 not 1115 young men, 970 whether x518 poor 1800 or x518 rich. 6223

 3:11 And now, x6258 my daughter, 1323 fear 3372 z8799 not; x408 I will do 6213 z8799 to thee all x3605 that x834 thou requirest: 559 z8799 for x3588 all x3605 the city 8179 of my people 5971 doth know 3045 z8802 that x3588 thou [art] a virtuous 2428 woman. 802

 3:12 And now x6258 x3588 it is true 551 that x3588 x518 I x595 [am thy] near kinsman: 1350 z8802 howbeit x1571 there is 3426 a kinsman 1350 z8802 nearer 7138 than x4480 I.

 3:13 Tarry 3885 z8798 this night, 3915 and it shall be x1961 in the morning, 1242 [that] if x518 he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman, 1350 z8799 well; 2896 let him do the kinsman's part: 1350 z8799 but if x518 he will 2654 z8799 not x3808 do the part of a kinsman 1350 z8800 to thee, then will I x595 do the part of a kinsman 1350 z8804 to thee, [as] the LORD 3068 liveth: 2416 lie down 7901 z8798 until x5704 the morning. 1242

 3:14 ¶ And she lay 7901 z8799 at his feet 4772 until x5704 the morning: 1242 and she rose up 6965 z8799 before 2958 one 376 could know 5234 z8686 x853 another. 7453 And he said, 559 z8799 Let it not x408 be known 3045 z8735 that x3588 a woman 802 came 935 z8804 into the floor. 1637

 3:15 Also he said, 559 z8799 Bring 3051 z8798 the veil 4304 that x834 [thou hast] upon x5921 thee, and hold 270 z8798 it. And when she held 270 z8799 it, he measured 4058 z8799 six 8337 [measures] of barley, 8184 and laid 7896 z8799 [it] on x5921 her: and she went y935 z8799 into x935 the city. 5892

 3:16 And when she came 935 z8799 to x413 her mother-in-law, 2545 she said, 559 z8799 Who x4310 [art] thou, x859 my daughter? 1323 And she told 5046 z8686 her x853 all x3605 that x834 the man 376 had done 6213 z8804 to her.

 3:17 And she said, 559 z8799 These x428 six 8337 [measures] of barley 8184 gave 5414 z8804 he me; for x3588 he said 559 z8804 to x413 me, Go 935 z8799 not x408 empty 7387 unto x413 thy mother-in-law. 2545

 3:18 Then said 559 z8799 she, Sit still, 3427 z8798 my daughter, 1323 until x5704 x834 thou know 3045 z8799 how x349 the matter 1697 will fall: 5307 z8799 for x3588 the man 376 will not x3808 be in rest, 8252 z8799 until 518 x3588 he have finished 3615 z8765 the thing 1697 this day. 3117
