1. THEN NAOMI her mother-in-law said to Ruth, My daughter, shall I not seek rest or a home for you, that you may prosper?
2. And now is not Boaz, with whose maidens you were, our relative? See, he is winnowing barley tonight at the threshing floor.
3. Wash and anoint yourself therefore, and put on your best clothes and go down to the threshing floor, but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.
4. But when he lies down, notice the place where he lies; then go and uncover his feet and lie down. And he will tell you what to do.
5. And Ruth said to her, All that you say to me I will do.
6. So she went down to the threshing floor and did just as her mother-in-law had told her.
7. And when Boaz had eaten and drunk and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain. Then [Ruth] came softly and uncovered his feet and lay down.
