  2:1 ¶
And Naomi{gr.Noemin} had [a friend] an acquaintance of her husband, and the man [was] a mighty man of the kindred of Elimelech, and his name [was] Boaz{gr.Booz}. |
|
2:1 ¶
And Naomi°
had a kinsman°°°°
of her husband's,°
a mighty°
man°
of wealth,°
of the family°°
of Elimelech;°
and his name°
[was] Boaz.° |
|
2:2
And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi{gr.Noemin}, Let me go now to the field, and I will glean among the ears behind the man with whomsoever I shall find favour: and she said to her, Go, daughter. |
|
2:2
And Ruth°
the Moabitess°
said°°
unto°
Naomi,°
Let me now°
go°°°
to the field,°
and glean°°
ears of corn°
after°°
[him] in whose sight°
I shall find°°
grace.°
And she said°°
unto her, Go,°°°
my daughter.° |
|
2:3
And she went; and came and gleaned in the field behind the reapers; and she happened by chance to come on a portion of the land of Boaz{gr.Booz}, of the kindred of Elimelech. |
|
2:3
And she went,°°°
and came,°°
and gleaned°°
in the field°
after°
the reapers:°°
and her hap°
was to light°°
on a part°
of the field°
[belonging] unto Boaz,°
who°
[was] of the kindred°°
of Elimelech.° |
|
2:4 ¶
And, behold, Boaz{gr.Booz} came from Bethlehem{gr.Bethleem}, and said to the reapers, The Lord [be] with you: and they said to him, The Lord bless thee. |
|
2:4 ¶
And, behold,°
Boaz°
came°°
from Bethlehem,°°
and said°°
unto the reapers,°°
Yahweh°
[be] with°
you. And they answered°°
him, Yahweh°
bless°°
thee. |
|
2:5
And Boaz{gr.Booz} said to his servant who was set over the reapers, Whose [is] this damsel? |
|
2:5
Then said°°
Boaz°
unto his servant°
that was set°°
over°
the reapers,°°
Whose°
damsel°
[is] this?° |
|
2:6
And his servant who was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel who returned with Naomi{gr.Noemin} out of the land of Moab. |
|
2:6
And the servant°
that was set°°
over°
the reapers°°
answered°°
and said,°°
It°
[is] the Moabitish°
damsel°
that came back°°
with°
Naomi°
out of the country°°
of Moab:° |
|
2:7
And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather among the sheaves after the reapers: and she came and stood from morning till evening, and rested not [even] a little in the field. |
|
2:7
And she said,°°
I pray°
you, let me glean°°
and gather°°
after°
the reapers°°
among the sheaves:°
so she came,°°
and hath continued°°
even°
from°°
the morning°
until°
now,°
that°
she tarried°°
a little°
in the house.° |
|
2:8
And Boaz{gr.Booz} said to Ruth, Hast thou not heard, [my] daughter? go not to glean in another field; and depart not thou hence, join thyself here with my damsels. |
|
2:8
Then said°°
Boaz°
unto°
Ruth,°
Hearest°°
thou not,°
my daughter?°
Go°°°
not°
to glean°°
in another°
field,°
neither°°
go°°
from hence,°°
but°
abide°°
here fast by°
my maidens:° |
|
2:9
[Let] thine eyes [be] on the field where [my men] shall reap, and thou shalt go after them: behold, I have charged the young men not to touch thee: and when you shalt thirst, then thou shalt go to the vessels, and drink of that which the young men shall have drawn. |
|
2:9
[Let] thine eyes°
[be] on the field°
that°
they do reap,°°
and go°°
thou after°
them: have I not°
charged°°°
the young men°
that they shall not°
touch°°
thee? and when thou art athirst,°°
go°°
unto°
the vessels,°
and drink°°
of [that] which°°
the young men°
have drawn.°° |
|
2:10
And she fell upon her face, and did reverence to the ground, and said to him, How is it that I have found grace in thine eyes, that thou shouldest take notice of me, whereas I am a stranger? |
|
2:10
Then she fell°°
on°
her face,°
and bowed°°
herself°
to the ground,°
and said°°
unto°
him, Why°
have I found°°
grace°
in thine eyes,°
that thou shouldest take knowledge°°
of me, seeing I°
[am] a stranger?° |
|
2:11
And Boaz{gr.Booz} answered and said to her, It has fully been told me how thou hast dealt with thy mother-in-law after the death of thy husband; and how thou didst leave thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy birth, and camest to a people whom thou knewest not before. |
|
2:11
And Boaz°
answered°°
and said°°
unto her, It hath fully°°
been shewed°°
me, all°
that°
thou hast done°°
unto°
thy mother in law°
since°
the death°
of thine husband:°
and [how] thou hast left°°
thy father°
and thy mother,°
and the land°
of thy nativity,°
and art come°°°
unto°
a people°
which°
thou knewest°°
not°
heretofore.°° |
|
2:12
The Lord recompense thy work; may a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, to whom thou hast come to trust under his wings. |
|
2:12
Yahweh°
recompense°°
thy work,°
and a full°
reward°
be given°
thee of°°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
of Israel,°
under°
whose°
wings°
thou art come°°
to trust.°° |
|
2:13
And she said, Let me find grace in thy sight, my lord, because thou hast comforted me, and because thou hast spoken kindly to thy handmaid, and behold, I shall be as one of thy servants. |
|
2:13
Then she said,°°
Let me find°°
favour°
in thy sight,°
my adon;°
for°
that thou hast comforted°°
me, and for that°
thou hast spoken°°
friendly°°
unto thine handmaid,°
though I°
be°
not°
like unto one°
of thine handmaidens.° |
|
2:14
And Boaz{gr.Booz} said to her, Now [it is] time to eat; come hither, and thou shalt eat of the bread, and thou shalt dip thy morsel in the vinegar: and Ruth sat by the side of the reapers: and Boaz{gr.Booz} handed her meal, and she ate, and was satisfied, and left. |
|
2:14
And Boaz°
said°°
unto her, At mealtime°°
come°°
thou hither,°
and eat°°
of°
the bread,°
and dip°°
thy morsel°
in the vinegar.°
And she sat°°
beside°°
the reapers:°°
and he reached°°
her parched°
[corn], and she did eat,°°
and was sufficed,°°
and left.°° |
|
2:15
And she rose up to glean; and Boaz{gr.Booz} charged his young men, saying, Let her even glean among the sheaves, and reproach her not. |
|
2:15
And when she was risen up°°
to glean,°°
Boaz°
commanded°°°
his young men,°
saying,°°
Let her glean°°
even°
among°
the sheaves,°
and reproach°°
her not:° |
|
2:16
And do ye by all means carry it for her, and ye shall surely let fall for her some of that which is heaped up; and let her eat, and glean, and rebuke her not. |
|
2:16
And let fall°°
also°
[some] of°
the handfuls°
of purpose°°
for her, and leave°°
[them], that she may glean°°
[them], and rebuke°°
her not.° |
|
2:17
So she gleaned in the field till evening, and beat out that she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barely. |
|
2:17
So she gleaned°°
in the field°
until°
even,°
and beat out°°°
that°
she had gleaned:°°
and it was°
about an ephah°
of barley.° |
|
2:18 ¶
And she took [it] up, and went into the city: and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned, and Ruth brought forth and gave to her the food which she had left from what she had been satisfied with. |
|
2:18 ¶
And she took [it] up,°°
and went°°
into the city:°
and her mother in law°
saw°°°
what°
she had gleaned:°°
and she brought forth,°°
and gave°°
to her°
that°
she had reserved°°
after she was sufficed.°° |
|
2:19
And her mother-in-law said to her, Where hast thou gleaned to-day, and where hast thou wrought? blessed be he that took notice of thee. And Ruth told her mother-in-law where she [had] wrought, and said, The name of the man with whom I wrought to-day [is] Boaz{gr.Booz}. |
|
2:19
And her mother in law°
said°°
unto her, Where°
hast thou gleaned°°
to day?°
and where°
wroughtest°°
thou? blessed°°
be°
he that did take knowledge°°
of thee. And she shewed°°
her mother in law°°
with°
whom°
she had wrought,°°
and said,°°
The man's°
name°
with°
whom°
I wrought°°
to day°
[is] Boaz.° |
|
2:20
And Naomi{gr.Noemin} said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed is he of the Lord, because he has not failed in his mercy with the living and with the dead: and Naomi{gr.Noemin} said to her, The man is near akin to us, he is one of our relations. |
|
2:20
And Naomi°
said°°
unto her daughter in law,°
Blessed°°
[be] he°
of Yahweh,°
who°
hath not°
left off°°
his kindness°
to°
the living°
and to°
the dead.°°
And Naomi°
said°°
unto her, The man°
[is] near of kin°
unto us, one°
of our next kinsmen.°°° |
|
2:21
And Ruth said to her mother-in-law, Yea, he said also to me, Keep close to my damsels, until the men shall have finished all my reaping. |
|
2:21
And Ruth°
the Moabitess°
said,°°
He said°°
unto°
me also,°
Thou shalt keep fast°°
by°
my°
young men,°
until°°
they have ended°°°
all°
my°
harvest.° |
|
2:22
And Naomi{gr.Noemin} said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, [It is] well, daughter, that thou wentest out with his damsels; thus they shall not meet thee in another field. |
|
2:22
And Naomi°
said°°
unto°
Ruth°
her daughter in law,°
[It is] good,°
my daughter,°
that°
thou go out°°
with°
his maidens,°
that they meet°°
thee not°
in any other°
field.° |
|
2:23
And Ruth joined herself to the damsels of Boaz{gr.Booz} to glean until they had finished the barley-harvest and the wheat-harvest. |
|
2:23
So she kept fast°°
by the maidens°
of Boaz°
to glean°°
unto°
the end°°
of barley°
harvest°
and of wheat°
harvest;°
and dwelt°°
with°
her mother in law.° |
