9 Let your eyes be on the field which they reap, and go after them. Have I not commanded the young men not to touch you? And when you are thirsty, go to the vessels and drink from what the young men have drawn.”
10 So she afell on her face, bowed down to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found bfavor in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, since I am a foreigner?”
11 And Boaz answered and said to her, “It has been fully reported to me, aall that you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and have come to a people whom you did not know before.
12 aThe Lord repay your work, and a full reward be given you by the Lord God of Israel, bunder whose wings you have come for refuge.”
13 Then she said, a“Let me find favor in your sight, my lord; for you have comforted me, and have spoken1 kindly to your maidservant, bthough I am not like one of your maidservants.”
