Ruth 2:4-8

Now behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said to the reapers, “May the Lord be with you.” And they said to him, “May the Lord bless you.”

Then Boaz said to his servant who was in charge of the reapers, “Whose young woman is this?”

And the servant in charge of the reapers replied, “She is the young Moabite woman who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.

And she said, ‘Please let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves.’ So she came and has remained from the morning until now; she has been sitting in the house for a little while.”

Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen carefully, my daughter. Do not go to glean in another field; furthermore, do not go on from this one, but join my young women here.
