5. Boaz asked his servant who was in charge of the harvesters, “Whose young woman is this? ”
6. The servant answered, “She is the young Moabite woman who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.
7. She asked, ‘Will you let me gather fallen grain among the bundles behind the harvesters? ’ She came and has remained from early morning until now, except that she rested a little in the shelter.”
8. Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter. Don’t go and gather grain in another field, and don’t leave this one, but stay here close to my female servants.
9. See which field they are harvesting, and follow them. Haven’t I ordered the young men not to touch you? When you are thirsty, go and drink from the jars the young men have filled.”
10. She bowed with her face to the ground and said to him, “Why are you so kind to notice me, although I am a foreigner? ”
