And they answered559 him, The LORD3068 bless1288 thee. 5 Then said559 Boaz1162 unto his servant5288 that was set5324 over5921 the reapers,7114 Whose4310 damsel5291 is this?2063 6 And the servant5288 that was set5324 over5921 the reapers7114 answered6030 and said,559 It1931 is the Moabitish4125 damsel5291 that came back7725 with5973 Naomi5281 out of the country4480 7704 of Moab:4124 7 And she said,559 I pray4994 you, let me glean3950 and gather622 after310 the reapers7114 among the sheaves:6016 so she came,935 and hath continued5975 even from4480 227 the morning1242 until5704 now,6258 that2088 she tarried3427 a little4592 in the house.1004 8 Then said559 Boaz1162 unto413 Ruth,7327 Hearest8085 thou not,3808 my daughter?1323 Go1980 not408 to glean3950 in another312 field,7704 neither1571 3808 go5674 from hence,4480 2088 but3541 abide1692 here fast by5973 my maidens:5291 9 Let thine eyes5869 be on the field7704 that834 they do reap,7114 and go1980 thou after310 them: have I not3808 charged6680 853 the young men5288 that they shall not1115 touch5060 thee? and when thou art athirst,6770 go1980 unto413 the vessels,3627 and drink8354 of that which4480 834 the young men5288 have drawn.7579 10 Then she fell5307 on5921 her face,6440 and bowed herself7812 to the ground,776 and said559 unto413 him, Why4069 have I found4672 grace2580 in thine eyes,5869 that thou shouldest take knowledge5234 of me, seeing I595 am a stranger?5237 11 And Boaz1162 answered6030 and said559 unto her, It hath fully5046 been showed5046 me, all3605 that834 thou hast done6213 unto 853 thy mother-in-law2545 since310 the death4194 of thine husband:376 and how thou hast left5800 thy father1 and thy mother,517 and the land776 of thy nativity,4138 and art come1980 unto413 a people5971 which834 thou knewest3045 not3808 heretofore.8032 8543 12 The LORD3068 recompense7999 thy work,6467 and a full8003 reward4909 be given1961 thee of4480 5973 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel,3478 under8478 whose834 wings3671 thou art come935 to trust.2620 13 Then she said,559 Let me find4672 favor2580 in thy sight,5869 my lord;113 for3588 that thou hast comforted5162 me, and for that3588 thou hast spoken1696 friendly5921 3820 unto thine handmaid,8198 though I595 be1961 not3808 like unto one259 of thine handmaidens.8198 14 And Boaz1162 said559 unto her, At mealtime6256 400 come5066 thou hither,1988 and eat398 of4480 the bread,3899 and dip2881 thy morsel6595 in the vinegar.2558 And she sat3427 beside4480 6654 the reapers:7114 and he reached6642 her parched7039 corn, and she did eat,398 and was sufficed,7646 and left.3498 15 And when she was risen up6965 to glean,3950 Boaz1162 commanded6680 853 his young men,5288 saying,559 Let her glean3950 even1571 among996 the sheaves,6016 and reproach3637 her not:3808 16 And let fall7997 also1571 some of4480 the handfuls6653 of purpose7997 for her, and leave5800 them, that she may glean3950 them, and rebuke1605 her not.3808 17 So she gleaned3950 in the field7704 until5704 even,6153 and beat out2251 853 that834 she had gleaned:3950 and it was1961 about an ephah374 of barley.8184 18 And she took it up,5375 and went935 into the city:5892 and her mother-in-law2545 saw7200 853 what834 she had gleaned:3950 and she brought forth,3318 and gave5414 to her 853 that834 she had reserved3498 after she was sufficed.4480 7648 19 And her mother-in-law2545 said559 unto her, Where375 hast thou gleaned3950 today?3117 and where375 wroughtest6213 thou? blessed1288 be1961 he that did take knowledge5234 of thee. And she showed5046 her mother-in-law2545 853 with5973 whom834 she had wrought,6213 and said,559 The man's376 name8034 with5973 whom834 I wrought6213 today3117 is Boaz.1162 20 And Naomi5281 said559 unto her daughter-in-law,3618 Blessed1288 be he1931 of the LORD,3068 who834 hath not3808 left off5800 his kindness2617 to854 the living2416 and to854 the dead.4191 And Naomi5281 said559 unto her, The man376 is near of kin7138 unto us, one1931 of our next kinsmen.4480 1350 21 And Ruth7327 the Moabitess4125 said,559 He said559 unto413 me also,1571 Thou shalt keep fast1692 by5973 my834 young men,5288 until5704 518 they have ended3615 853 all3605 my834 harvest.7105 22 And Naomi5281 said559 unto413 Ruth7327 her daughter-in-law,3618 It is good,2896 my daughter,1323 that3588 thou go out3318 with5973 his maidens,5291 that they meet6293 thee not3808 in any other312 field.7704 23 So she kept fast1692 by the maidens5291 of Boaz1162 to glean3950 unto5704 the end3615 of barley8184 harvest7105 and of wheat2406 harvest;7105 and dwelt3427 with854 her mother-in-law.2545 |

1 Erat autem viro Elimelech consanguineus, homo potens, et magnarum opum, nomine Booz. 2 Dixitque Ruth Moabitis ad socrum suam: Si jubes, vadam in agrum, et colligam spicas quæ fugerint manus metentium, ubicumque clementis in me patrisfamilias reperero gratiam. Cui illa respondit: Vade, filia mea. 3 Abiit itaque et colligebat spicas post terga metentium. Accidit autem ut ager ille haberet dominum nomine Booz, qui erat de cognatione Elimelech. 4 Et ecce, ipse veniebat de Bethlehem, dixitque messoribus: Dominus vobiscum. Qui responderunt ei: Benedicat tibi Dominus. 5 Dixitque Booz juveni, qui messoribus præerat: Cujus est hæc puella? 6 Cui respondit: Hæc est Moabitis, quæ venit cum Noëmi, de regione Moabitide, 7 et rogavit ut spicas colligeret remanentes, sequens messorum vestigia: et de mane usque nunc stat in agro, et ne ad momentum quidem domum reversa est. 8 Et ait Booz ad Ruth: Audi, filia, ne vadas in alterum agrum ad colligendum, nec recedas ab hoc loco: sed jungere puellis meis, 9 et ubi messuerint, sequere. Mandavi enim pueris meis, ut nemo molestus sit tibi: sed etiam si sitieris, vade ad sarcinulas, et bibe aquas, de quibus et pueri bibunt. 10 Quæ cadens in faciem suam et adorans super terram, dixit ad eum: Unde mihi hoc, ut invenirem gratiam ante oculos tuos, et nosse me dignareris peregrinam mulierem? 11 Cui ille respondit: Nuntiata sunt mihi omnia quæ feceris socrui tuæ post mortem viri tui: et quod reliqueris parentes tuos, et terram in qua nata es, et veneris ad populum, quem antea nesciebas. 12 Reddat tibi Dominus pro opere tuo, et plenam mercedem recipias a Domino Deo Israël, ad quem venisti, et sub cujus confugisti alas. 13 Quæ ait: Inveni gratiam apud oculos tuos, domine mi, qui consolatus es me, et locutus es ad cor ancillæ tuæ, quæ non sum similis unius puellarum tuarum. 14 Dixitque ad eam Booz: Quando hora vescendi fuerit, veni huc, et comede panem, et intinge buccellam tuam in aceto. Sedit itaque ad messorum latus, et congessit polentam sibi, comeditque et saturata est, et tulit reliquias. 15 Atque inde surrexit, ut spicas ex more colligeret. Præcepit autem Booz pueris suis, dicens: Etiamsi vobiscum metere voluerit, ne prohibeatis eam: 16 et de vestris quoque manipulis projicite de industria, et remanere permittite, ut absque rubore colligat, et colligentem nemo corripiat. 17 Collegit ergo in agro usque ad vesperam: et quæ collegerat virga cædens et excutiens, invenit hordei quasi ephi mensuram, id est, tres modios. 18 Quos portans reversa est in civitatem, et ostendit socrui suæ: insuper protulit, et dedit ei de reliquiis cibi sui, quo saturata fuerat. 19 Dixitque ei socrus sua: Ubi hodie collegisti, et ubi fecisti opus? sit benedictus qui misertus est tui. Indicavitque ei apud quem fuisset operata: et nomen dixit viri, quod Booz vocaretur. 20 Cui respondit Noëmi: Benedictus sit a Domino: quoniam eamdem gratiam, quam præbuerat vivis, servavit et mortuis. Rursumque ait: Propinquus noster est homo. 21 Et ait Ruth: Hoc quoque, inquit, præcepit mihi, ut tamdiu messoribus ejus jungerer, donec omnes segetes meterentur. 22 Cui dixit socrus: Melius est, filia mea, ut cum puellis ejus exeas ad metendum, ne in alieno agro quispiam resistat tibi. 23 Juncta est itaque puellis Booz: et tamdiu cum eis messuit, donec hordea et triticum in horreis conderentur. |
