Ruth 3

KJV

1  Then Naomi⁵²⁸¹ her mother-in-law²⁵⁴⁵ said⁵⁵⁹ unto her, My daughter,¹³²³ shall I not³⁸⁰⁸ seek¹²⁴⁵ rest⁴⁴⁹⁴ for thee, that⁸³⁴ it may be well³¹⁹⁰ with thee?

2  And now⁶²⁵⁸ is not³⁸⁰⁸ Boaz¹¹⁶² of our kindred,⁴¹³⁰ with⁸⁵⁴ whose⁸³⁴ maidens⁵²⁹¹ thou wast?¹⁹⁶¹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ he¹⁹³¹ winnoweth²²¹⁹ barley⁸¹⁸⁴ tonight³⁹¹⁵ in ⁸⁵³ the threshingfloor.¹⁶³⁷

3  Wash⁷³⁶⁴ thyself therefore, and anoint⁵⁴⁸⁰ thee, and put⁷⁷⁶⁰ thy raiment⁸⁰⁷¹ upon⁵⁹²¹ thee, and get thee down³³⁸¹ to the floor:¹⁶³⁷ but make not thyself known^{3045 408} unto the man,³⁷⁶ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ he shall have done³⁶¹⁵ eating³⁹⁸ and drinking.⁸³⁵⁴

4  And it shall be,¹⁹⁶¹ when he lieth down,⁷⁹⁰¹ that thou shalt mark^{3045 853} the place⁴⁷²⁵ where^{834 8033} he shall lie,⁷⁹⁰¹ and thou shalt go in,⁹³⁵ and uncover¹⁵⁴⁰ his feet,⁴⁷⁷² and lay thee down;⁷⁹⁰¹ and he¹⁹³¹ will tell⁵⁰⁴⁶ thee ⁸⁵³ what⁸³⁴ thou shalt do.⁶²¹³

5  And she said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ her, All³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ thou sayest⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ me I will do.⁶²¹³

6  And she went down³³⁸¹ unto the floor,¹⁶³⁷ and did⁶²¹³ according to all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ her mother-in-law²⁵⁴⁵ bade⁶⁶⁸⁰ her.

7  And when Boaz¹¹⁶² had eaten³⁹⁸ and drunk,⁸³⁵⁴ and his heart³⁸²⁰ was merry,³¹⁹⁰ he went⁹³⁵ to lie down⁷⁹⁰¹ at the end⁷⁰⁹⁷ of the heap of corn:⁶¹⁹⁴ and she came⁹³⁵ softly,³⁹⁰⁹ and uncovered¹⁵⁴⁰ his feet,⁴⁷⁷² and laid her down.⁷⁹⁰¹

8  And it came to pass¹⁹⁶¹ at midnight,^{2677 3915} that the man³⁷⁶ was afraid,²⁷²⁹ and turned himself:³⁹⁴³ and, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ a woman⁸⁰² lay⁷⁹⁰¹ at his feet.⁴⁷⁷²

9  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Who⁴³¹⁰ art thou?⁸⁵⁹ And she answered,⁵⁵⁹ I⁵⁹⁵ am Ruth⁷³²⁷ thine handmaid:⁵¹⁹ spread⁶⁵⁶⁶ therefore thy skirt³⁶⁷¹ over⁵⁹²¹ thine handmaid;⁵¹⁹ for³⁵⁸⁸ thou⁸⁵⁹ art a near kinsman.¹³⁵⁰

10  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Blessed¹²⁸⁸ be thou⁸⁵⁹ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ my daughter:¹³²³ for thou hast showed more³¹⁹⁰ kindness²⁶¹⁷ in the latter end³¹⁴ than⁴⁴⁸⁰ at the beginning,⁷²²³ inasmuch as thou followedst^{1980 310} not¹¹¹⁵ young men,⁹⁷⁰ whether⁵¹⁸ poor¹⁸⁰⁰ or⁵¹⁸ rich.⁶²²³

11  And now,⁶²⁵⁸ my daughter,¹³²³ fear³³⁷² not;⁴⁰⁸ I will do⁶²¹³ to thee all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ thou requirest:⁵⁵⁹ for³⁵⁸⁸ all³⁶⁰⁵ the city⁸¹⁷⁹ of my people⁵⁹⁷¹ doth know³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ thou art a virtuous²⁴²⁸ woman.⁸⁰²

12  And now^{6258 3588} it is true⁵⁵¹ that^{3588 518} I⁵⁹⁵ am thy near kinsman:¹³⁵⁰ howbeit¹⁵⁷¹ there is³⁴²⁶ a kinsman¹³⁵⁰ nearer⁷¹³⁸ than⁴⁴⁸⁰ I.

13  Tarry³⁸⁸⁵ this night,³⁹¹⁵ and it shall be¹⁹⁶¹ in the morning,¹²⁴² that if⁵¹⁸ he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman,¹³⁵⁰ well;²⁸⁹⁶ let him do the kinsman's part:¹³⁵⁰ but if⁵¹⁸ he will²⁶⁵⁴ not³⁸⁰⁸ do the part of a kinsman¹³⁵⁰ to thee, then will I⁵⁹⁵ do the part of a kinsman¹³⁵⁰ to thee, as the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ liveth:²⁴¹⁶ lie down⁷⁹⁰¹ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the morning.¹²⁴²

14  And she lay⁷⁹⁰¹ at his feet⁴⁷⁷² until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the morning:¹²⁴² and she rose up⁶⁹⁶⁵ before²⁹⁵⁸ one³⁷⁶ could know^{5234 853} another.⁷⁴⁵³ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Let it not⁴⁰⁸ be known³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ a woman⁸⁰² came⁹³⁵ into the floor.¹⁶³⁷

15  Also he said,⁵⁵⁹ Bring³⁰⁵¹ the veil⁴³⁰⁴ that⁸³⁴ thou hast upon⁵⁹²¹ thee, and hold²⁷⁰ it. And when she held²⁷⁰ it, he measured⁴⁰⁵⁸ six⁸³³⁷ measures of barley,⁸¹⁸⁴ and laid⁷⁸⁹⁶ it on⁵⁹²¹ her: and she went into⁹³⁵ the city.⁵⁸⁹²

16  And when she came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ her mother-in-law,²⁵⁴⁵ she said,⁵⁵⁹ Who⁴³¹⁰ art thou,⁸⁵⁹ my daughter?¹³²³ And she told⁵⁰⁴⁶ her ⁸⁵³ all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ the man³⁷⁶ had done⁶²¹³ to her.

17  And she said,⁵⁵⁹ These⁴²⁸ six⁸³³⁷ measures of barley⁸¹⁸⁴ gave⁵⁴¹⁴ he me; for³⁵⁸⁸ he said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ me, Go⁹³⁵ not⁴⁰⁸ empty⁷³⁸⁷ unto⁴¹³ thy mother-in-law.²⁵⁴⁵

18  Then said⁵⁵⁹ she, Sit still,³⁴²⁷ my daughter,¹³²³ until^{5704 834} thou know³⁰⁴⁵ how³⁴⁹ the matter¹⁶⁹⁷ will fall:⁵³⁰⁷ for³⁵⁸⁸ the man³⁷⁶ will not³⁸⁰⁸ be in rest,⁸²⁵² until^{3588 518} he have finished³⁶¹⁵ the thing¹⁶⁹⁷ this day.³¹¹⁷

1 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῇ Νωεμιν ἡ πενθερὰ αὐτῆς θύγατερ οὐ μὴ ζητήσω σοι ἀνάπαυσιν ἵνα εὖ γένηταί σοι

2 καὶ νῦν οὐχὶ Βοος γνώριμος ἡμῶν οὗ ἦς μετὰ τῶν κορασίων αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς λικμᾷ τὸν ἅλωνα τῶν κριθῶν ταύτῃ τῇ νυκτί

3 σὺ δὲ λούσῃ καὶ ἀλείψῃ καὶ περιθήσεις τὸν ἱματισμόν σου ἐπὶ σεαυτῇ καὶ ἀναβήσῃ ἐπὶ τὸν ἅλω μὴ γνωρισθῇς τῷ ἀνδρὶ ἕως οὗ συντελέσαι αὐτὸν πιεῖν καὶ φαγεῖν

4 καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῷ κοιμηθῆναι αὐτόν καὶ γνώσῃ τὸν τόπον ὅπου κοιμᾶται ἐκεῖ καὶ ἐλεύσῃ καὶ ἀποκαλύψεις τὰ πρὸς ποδῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ κοιμηθήσῃ καὶ αὐτὸς ἀπαγγελεῖ σοι ἃ ποιήσεις

5 εἶπεν δὲ Ρουθ πρὸς αὐτήν πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν εἴπῃς ποιήσω

6 καὶ κατέβη εἰς τὸν ἅλω καὶ ἐποίησεν κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο αὐτῇ ἡ πενθερὰ αὐτῆς

7 καὶ ἔφαγεν Βοος καὶ ἠγαθύνθη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ καὶ ἦλθεν κοιμηθῆναι ἐν μερίδι τῆς στοιβῆς ἡ δὲ ἦλθεν κρυφῇ καὶ ἀπεκάλυψεν τὰ πρὸς ποδῶν αὐτοῦ

8 ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ μεσονυκτίῳ καὶ ἐξέστη ὁ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἐταράχθη καὶ ἰδοὺ γυνὴ κοιμᾶται πρὸς ποδῶν αὐτοῦ

9 εἶπεν δέ τίς εἶ σύ ἡ δὲ εἶπεν ἐγώ εἰμι Ρουθ ἡ δούλη σου καὶ περιβαλεῖς τὸ πτερύγιόν σου ἐπὶ τὴν δούλην σου ὅτι ἀγχιστεὺς εἶ σύ

10 καὶ εἶπεν Βοος εὐλογημένη σὺ τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ θύγατερ ὅτι ἠγάθυνας τὸ ἔλεός σου τὸ ἔσχατον ὑπὲρ τὸ πρῶτον τὸ μὴ πορευθῆναί σε ὀπίσω νεανιῶν εἴτοι πτωχὸς εἴτοι πλούσιος

11 καὶ νῦν θύγατερ μὴ φοβοῦ πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν εἴπῃς ποιήσω σοι οἶδεν γὰρ πᾶσα φυλὴ λαοῦ μου ὅτι γυνὴ δυνάμεως εἶ σύ

12 καὶ ὅτι ἀληθῶς ἀγχιστεὺς ἐγώ εἰμι καί γε ἔστιν ἀγχιστεὺς ἐγγίων ὑπὲρ ἐμέ

13 αὐλίσθητι τὴν νύκτα καὶ ἔσται τὸ πρωί ἐὰν ἀγχιστεύσῃ σε ἀγαθόν ἀγχιστευέτω ἐὰν δὲ μὴ βούληται ἀγχιστεῦσαί σε ἀγχιστεύσω σε ἐγώ ζῇ κύριος κοιμήθητι ἕως πρωί

14 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη πρὸς ποδῶν αὐτοῦ ἕως πρωί ἡ δὲ ἀνέστη πρὸ τοῦ ἐπιγνῶναι ἄνδρα τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Βοος μὴ γνωσθήτω ὅτι ἦλθεν γυνὴ εἰς τὸν ἅλωνα

15 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ φέρε τὸ περίζωμα τὸ ἐπάνω σου καὶ ἐκράτησεν αὐτό καὶ ἐμέτρησεν ἓξ κριθῶν καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτήν καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν πόλιν

16 καὶ Ρουθ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς τὴν πενθερὰν αὐτῆς ἡ δὲ εἶπεν τίς εἶ θύγατερ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἀνήρ

17 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ τὰ ἓξ τῶν κριθῶν ταῦτα ἔδωκέν μοι ὅτι εἶπεν πρός με μὴ εἰσέλθῃς κενὴ πρὸς τὴν πενθεράν σου

18 ἡ δὲ εἶπεν κάθου θύγατερ ἕως τοῦ ἐπιγνῶναί σε πῶς οὐ πεσεῖται ῥῆμα οὐ γὰρ μὴ ἡσυχάσῃ ὁ ἀνήρ ἕως ἂν τελέσῃ τὸ ῥῆμα σήμερον

1 Postquam autem reversa est ad socrum suam, audivit ab ea: Filia mea, quæram tibi requiem, et providebo ut bene sit tibi.

2 Booz iste, cujus puellis in agro juncta es, propinquus noster est, et hac nocte aream hordei ventilat.

3 Lavare igitur, et ungere, et induere cultioribus vestimentis, et descende in aream: non te videat homo, donec esum potumque finierit.

4 Quando autem ierit ad dormiendum, nota locum in quo dormiat: veniesque et discooperies pallium, quo operitur a parte pedum, et projicies te, et ibi jacebis: ipse autem dicet quid agere debeas.

5 Quæ respondit: Quidquid præceperis, faciam.

6 Descenditque in aream, et fecit omnia quæ sibi imperaverat socrus.

7 Cumque comedisset Booz, et bibisset, et factus esset hilarior, issetque ad dormiendum juxta acervum manipulorum, venit abscondite, et discooperto pallio, a pedibus ejus se projecit.

8 Et ecce, nocte jam media expavit homo, et conturbatus est: viditque mulierem jacentem ad pedes suos,

9 et ait illi: Quæ es? Illaque respondit: Ego sum Ruth ancilla tua: expande pallium tuum super famulam tuam, quia propinquus es.

10 Et ille: Benedicta, inquit, es a Domino, filia, et priorem misericordiam posteriore superasti: quia non est secuta juvenes, pauperes sive divites.

11 Noli ergo metuere, sed quidquid dixeris mihi, faciam tibi. Scit enim omnis populus, qui habitat intra portas urbis meæ, mulierem te esse virtutis.

12 Nec abnuo me propinquum, sed est alius me propinquior.

13 Quiesce hac nocte: et facto mane, si te voluerit propinquitatis jure retinere, bene res acta est: sin autem ille noluerit, ego te absque ulla dubitatione suscipiam, vivit Dominus. Dormi usque mane.

14 Dormivit itaque ad pedes ejus, usque ad noctis abscessum. Surrexit itaque antequam homines se cognoscerent mutuo, et dixit Booz: Cave ne quis noverit quod huc veneris.

15 Et rursum: Expande, inquit, pallium tuum, quo operiris, et tene utraque manu. Qua extendente, et tenente, mensus est sex modios hordei, et posuit super eam. Quæ portans ingressa est civitatem,

16 et venit ad socrum suam. Quæ dixit ei: Quid egisti, filia? Narravitque ei omnia, quæ sibi fecisset homo.

17 Et ait: Ecce sex modios hordei dedit mihi, et ait: Nolo vacuam te reverti ad socrum tuam.

18 Dixitque Noëmi: Expecta, filia, donec videamus quem res exitum habeat: neque enim cessabit homo, nisi compleverit quod locutus est.
