    3So she went out, entered a field, and began to glean behind the harvesters. By chance, she found herself working in a field belonging to Boaz, who was from the family of Elimelech.

    4Just then, Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and greeted the harvesters, "The LORD be with you!" They responded, "The LORD bless you!"

    5Boaz asked the servant who was in charge of the harvesters, "Whose young woman is this?"

    6The servant replied, "She is the young Moabite woman who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.

    7"She asked, 'Please let me glean and gather among the sheaves behind the harvesters.' She came and has been working steadily from morning till now, except for a short rest in the shelter."

    1During the time when the judges ruled, there was a famine in the land, and a man from Bethlehem in Judah left to live temporarily in the fields of Moab, he, his wife, and his two sons.

    2The man's name was Elimelech, his wife's name was Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Kilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in Judah. They came to the fields of Moab and settled there.

    3Then Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died, and she was left with her two sons.

    4These sons married Moabite women. One was named Orpah, and the other was named Ruth. They lived there about ten years.

    5Then both Mahlon and Kilion also died, and Naomi was left without her two sons and her husband.

    6Naomi arose with her daughters-in-law to return from the fields of Moab because she had heard in Moab that the LORD had attended to His people by providing them with food.

    7She left the place where she had been living, along with her two daughters-in-law, and they began to travel on the road back to the land of Judah.

    20Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, "May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not stopped showing his kindness to the living and the dead." She added, "That man is a close relative of ours; he is one of our kinsman-redeemers."

    21Then Ruth the Moabite said, "He even told me, 'Stay close to my harvesters until they have finished all my harvest.'"
