    14At meal time Boaz said to her, "Come here, and eat of the bread, and dip your morsel in the vinegar." She sat beside the reapers, and they reached her parched grain, and she ate, and was satisfied, and left some of it.

    15When she had risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, "Let her glean even among the sheaves, and don't reproach her.

    16Also pull out some for her from the bundles, and leave it, and let her glean, and don't rebuke her."

    17So she gleaned in the field until evening; and she beat out that which she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.
