Ruth 3:2-5 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

2. This Boaz, whose young women you joined in the field, is our near relative, and this night he will winnow the threshing floor of barley.

3. Therefore, wash and anoint yourself, and put on your decorative garments, and go down to the threshing floor, but do not let the man see you, while he finishes eating and drinking.

4. But when he goes sleep, observe the place where he sleeps. And you will approach and lift up the covering, the part which covers near his feet, and lay yourself down, and sleep there; but he will tell you what you are obliged to do."

5. She answered, "I will do everything as you have instructed."
