Ruth 3:7-15

And when Boaz
<01162>
had eaten
<0398> (8799)
and drunk
<08354> (8799)_,
and his heart
<03820>
was merry
<03190> (8799)_,
he went
<0935> (8799)
to lie down
<07901> (8800)
at the end
<07097>
of the heap of corn
<06194>_:
and she came
<0935> (8799)
softly
<03909>_,
and uncovered
<01540> (8762)
his feet
<04772>_,
and laid her down
<07901> (8799)_.
And it came to pass at midnight
<02677> <03915>_,
that the man
<0376>
was afraid
<02729> (8799)_,
and turned
<03943> (8735)
himself: and, behold, a woman
<0802>
lay
<07901> (8802)
at his feet
<04772>_.
{turned: or, took hold on}
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Who [art] thou? And she answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am] Ruth
<07327>
thine handmaid
<0519>_:
spread
<06566> (8804)
therefore thy skirt
<03671>
over thine handmaid
<0519>_;
for thou [art] a near kinsman
<01350> (8802)_.
{a near...: or, one that hath right to redeem}
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] thou of the LORD
<03068>_,
my daughter
<01323>_:
[for] thou hast shewed
<03190> (8689)
more kindness
<02617>
in the latter end
<0314>
than at the beginning
<07223>_,
inasmuch as thou followedst
<03212> (8800) <0310>
not
<01115>
young men
<0970>_,
whether poor
<01800>
or rich
<06223>_.
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}
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.
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>_.
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>_.
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}
