Ruth 2:2

Ruth Meets Boaz

1 There was a ^arelative of Naomi’s husband, a man of great wealth, of the family of ^bElimelech. His name was ^cBoaz.

2 So Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Please let me go to the ^afield, and glean heads of grain after him in whose sight I may find favor.” And she said to her, “Go, my daughter.”

3 Then she left, and went and gleaned in the field after the reapers. And she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech.

4 Now behold, Boaz came from ^aBethlehem, and said to the reapers, ^b“The Lord be with you!” And they answered him, “The Lord bless you!”

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