01 : 01 . Now it came <01961 +hayah > to pass in the days


<03117 +yowm > when the judges <08199 +shaphat > ruled <08199
+shaphat > , that there was a famine <07458 +ra<ab > in the land
<00776 +>erets > . And a certain man <00376 +> iysh > of
Bethlehemjudah <01035 +Beyth Lechem > went <03212 +yalak > to
sojourn <01481 +guwr > in the country <07704 +sadeh > of Moab
<04124 +Mow>ab > , he , and his wife <00802 +> ishshah > , and
his two <08147 +sh@nayim > sons <01121 +ben > .



01 : 02 And the name <08034 +shem > of the man <00376 +>iysh > [
was ] Elimelech <00458 +>Eliymelek > , and the name < 08034 +shem
> of his wife <00802 +>ishshah > Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > , and
the name <08034 +shem > of his two <08147 +sh@nayim > sons
<01121 +ben > Mahlon <04248 +Machlown > and Chilion <03630
+Kilyown > , Ephrathites <00673 +>Ephrathiy > of Bethlehemjudah
<01035 +Beyth Lechem > . And they came <00935 +bow> > into the
country <07704 +sadeh > of Moab <04124 +Mow>ab > , and continued
<01961 +hayah > there <08033 +sham > .



01 : 03 And Elimelech <00458 +>Eliymelek > Naomi s < 05281
+No<omiy > husband <00376 +>iysh > died <04191 +muwth > ; and
she was left <07604 +sha>ar > , and her two <08147 +sh@nayim >
sons <01121 +ben > .



01 : 04 And they took <05375 +nasa> > them wives < 00802
+>ishshah > of the women <00802 +>ishshah > of Moab <04125
+Mow>abiy > ; the name <08034 +shem > of the one < 00259 +>echad
> [ was ] Orpah <06204 +<Orpah > , and the name < 08034 +shem >
of the other <08145 +sheniy > Ruth <07327 +Ruwth > : and they
dwelled <03427 +yashab > there <08033 +sham > about ten <06235
+<eser > years <08141 +shaneh > .



01 : 05 And Mahlon <04248 +Machlown > and Chilion <03630
+Kilyown > died <04191 +muwth > also <01571 +gam > both <08147
+sh@nayim > of them ; and the woman <00802 +>ishshah > was left
<07604 +sha>ar > of her two <08147 +sh@nayim > sons <03206
+yeled > and her husband <00376 +>iysh > .



01 : 06 . Then she arose <06965 +quwm > with her daughters
<03618 +kallah > in law <03618 +kallah > , that she might return
<07725 +shuwb > from the country <07704 +sadeh > of Moab <04124
+Mow>ab > : for she had heard <08085 +shama< > in the country
<07704 +sadeh > of Moab <04124 +Mow>ab > how that the LORD
<03068 +Y@hovah > had visited <06485 +paqad > his people <05971
+<am > in giving <05414 +nathan > them bread < 03899 +lechem > .



01 : 07 Wherefore she went <03318 +yatsa> > forth < 03318 +yatsa>
> out of the place <04725 +maqowm > where she was , and her two
<08147 +sh@nayim > daughters <03618 +kallah > in law <03618
+kallah > with her ; and they went <03212 +yalak > on the way
<01870 +derek > to return <07725 +shuwb > unto the land <00776
+>erets > of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > .



01 : 08 And Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > said <00559 +> amar > unto
her two <08147 +sh@nayim > daughters <03618 +kallah > in law
<03618 +kallah > , Go <03212 +yalak > , return < 07725 +shuwb >
each <00802 +>ishshah > to her mother s <00517 +> em > house
<01004 +bayith > : the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > deal <06213 +<asah
> kindly <02617 +checed > with you , as ye have dealt <06213
+<asah > with the dead <04191 +muwth > , and with me .



01 : 09 The LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > grant <05414 +nathan > you
that ye may find <04672 +matsa> > rest <04496 +m@nuwchah > ,
each <00802 +>ishshah > [ of you ] in the house < 01004 +bayith >
of her husband <00376 +>iysh > . Then she kissed < 05401 +nashaq
> them ; and they lifted <05375 +nasa> > up their voice <06963
+qowl > , and wept <01058 +bakah > .



01 : 10 And they said <00559 +>amar > unto her , Surely <03588
+kiy > we will return <07725 +shuwb > with thee unto thy people
<05971 +<am > .



01 : 11 And Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > said <00559 +> amar > , Turn
<07725 +shuwb > again <07725 +shuwb > , my daughters <01121 +ben
> : why <04100 +mah > will ye go <03212 +yalak > with me ? [
are ] there yet <05750 +<owd > [ any more ] sons < 01121 +ben >
in my womb <04578 +me<ah > , that they may be your husbands
<00582 +>enowsh > ?



01 : 12 Turn <07725 +shuwb > again <07725 +shuwb > , my
daughters <01121 +ben > , go <03212 +yalak > [ your way <01870
+derek > ] ; for I am too old <02204 +zaqen > to have an husband
<00376 +>iysh > . If <03588 +kiy > I should say <00559 +>amar >
, I have hope <08615 +tiqvah > , [ if <03588 +kiy > ] I should
have an husband <00376 +>iysh > also to night <03915 +layil > ,
and should also <01571 +gam > bear <03205 +yalad > sons <01121
+ben > ;



01 : 13 Would ye tarry <07663 +sabar > for them till < 05704 +<ad
> they were grown <01431 +gadal > ? would ye stay < 05702 +<agan
> for them from having husbands <00376 +>iysh > ? nay <00408
+>al > , my daughters <01121 +ben > ; for it grieveth <04843
+marar > me much <03966 +m@<od > for your sakes that the hand
<03027 +yad > of the LORD <00113 +>adown > is gone <03318
+yatsa> > out against me .



01 : 14 And they lifted <05375 +nasa> > up their voice <06963
+qowl > , and wept <01058 +bakah > again <05750 +< owd > : and
Orpah <06204 +<Orpah > kissed <05401 +nashaq > her mother <02545
+chamowth > in law <02545 +chamowth > ; but Ruth < 07327 +Ruwth >
clave <01692 +dabaq > unto her .



01 : 15 And she said <00559 +>amar > , Behold <02009 +hinneh > ,
thy sister <02994 +Y@bemeth > in law <02994 +Y@bemeth > is gone
<07725 +shuwb > back <07725 +shuwb > unto her people <05971 +<am
> , and unto her gods <00430 +>elohiym > : return < 07725 +shuwb
> thou after <00310 +>achar > thy sister <02994 +Y@bemeth > in
law <02994 +Y@bemeth > .



01 : 16 And Ruth <07327 +Ruwth > said <00559 +>amar > , Intreat
<06293 +paga< > me not to leave <05800 +<azab > thee , [ or ] to
return <07725 +shuwb > from following after <00310 +> achar >
thee : for whither thou goest <03212 +yalak > , I will go <03212
+yalak > ; and where <00834 +>aher > thou lodgest < 03885 +luwn >
, I will lodge <03885 +luwn > : thy people <05971 +< am > [ shall
be ] my people <05971 +<am > , and thy God <00430 +>elohiym > my
God <00430 +>elohiym > :



01 : 17 Where <00834 +>aher > thou diest <04191 +muwth > , will
I die <04191 +muwth > , and there <08033 +sham > will I be
buried <06912 +qabar > : the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > do <06213
+<asah > so <03541 +koh > to me , and more <03254 +yacaph > also
<03541 +koh > , [ if <03588 +kiy > ought ] but death <04194
+maveth > part <06504 +parad > thee and me .



01 : 18 When she saw <07200 +ra>ah > that she was stedfastly
<00553 +>amats > minded to go <03212 +yalak > with her , then
she left <02308 +chadal > speaking <01696 +dabar > unto her .



01 : 19 . So they two <08147 +sh@nayim > went <03212 +yalak >
until <05704 +<ad > they came <00935 +bow> > to Bethlehem <01035
+Beyth Lechem > . And it came <01961 +hayah > to pass , when
they were come <00935 +bow> > to Bethlehem <01035 +Beyth Lechem
> , that all <03605 +kol > the city <05892 +<iyr > was moved
<01949 +huwm > about <05921 +<al > them , and they said <00559
+>amar > , [ Is ] this <02063 +zo>th > Naomi < 05281 +No<omiy > ?



01 : 20 And she said <00559 +>amar > unto them , Call <07121
+qara> > me not Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > , call < 07121 +qara> >
me Mara <04755 +Mara> > : for the Almighty <07706 +Shadday >
hath dealt very <03966 +m@<od > bitterly <04843 +marar > with me
.



01 : 21 I went <01980 +halak > out full <04390 +male> > , and
the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah >hath brought <07725 +shuwb > me home
<07725 +shuwb > again <07725 +shuwb > empty <07387 +reyqam > :
why <04100 +mah > [ then ] call <07121 +qara> > ye me Naomi
<05281 +No<omiy > , seeing the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > hath
testified <06030 +<anah > against me , and the Almighty <07706
+Shadday > hath afflicted <07489 +ra<a< > me ?



01 : 22 So Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > returned <07725 +shuwb > ,
and Ruth <07327 +Ruwth >the Moabitess <04125 +Mow> abiy > , her
daughter <03618 +kallah > in law <03618 +kallah > , with her ,
which returned <07725 +shuwb > out of the country <07704 +sadeh
> of Moab <04124 +Mow>ab > : and they came <00935 +bow> > to
Bethlehem <01035 +Beyth Lechem > in the beginning <08462
+t@chillah > of barley <08184 +s@<orah > harvest < 07105 +qatsiyr
>

.



02 : 01 . And Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > had a kinsman < 03045
+yada< > of her husband s <00376 +>iysh > , a mighty <01368
+gibbowr > man <00376 +>iysh > of wealth <02428 +chayil > , of
the family <04940 +mishpachah > of Elimelech <00458 +> Eliymelek
> ; and his name <08034 +shem > [ was ] Boaz <01162 +Bo<az > .



02 : 02 And Ruth <07327 +Ruwth > the Moabitess <04125 +Mow>abiy
> said <00559 +>amar > unto Naomi <05281 +No< omiy > , Let me now
<04994 +na> > go <03212 +yalak > to the field < 07704 +sadeh > ,
and glean <03950 +laqat > ears <07641 +shibbol > of corn after
<00310 +>achar > [ him ] in whose <00834 +>aher > sight <05869
+<ayin > I shall find <04672 +matsa> > grace < 02580 +chen > .
And she said <00559 +>amar > unto her , Go <03212 +yalak > , my
daughter <01323 +bath > .



02 : 03 And she went <03212 +yalak > , and came <00935 +bow> > ,
and gleaned <03950 +laqat > in the field <07704 +sadeh > after
<00310 +>achar > the reapers <07114 +qatsar > : and her hap
<04745 +miqreh > was to light <07136 +qarah > on a part <02513
+chelqah > of the field <07704 +sadeh > [ belonging ] unto Boaz
<01162 +Bo<az > , who <00834 +>aher > [ was ] of the kindred
<04940 +mishpachah > of Elimelech <00458 +>Eliymelek > .



02 : 04 . And , behold <02009 +hinneh > , Boaz <01162 +Bo<az >
came <00935 +bow> > from Bethlehem <01035 +Beyth Lechem > , and
said <00559 +>amar > unto the reapers <07114 +qatsar > , The
LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > [ be ] with you . And they answered
<00559 +>amar > him , The LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > bless <01288
+barak > thee .



02 : 05 Then said <00559 +>amar > Boaz <01162 +Bo< az > unto his
servant <05288 +na<ar > that was set <05324 +natsab > over
<05921 +<al > the reapers <07114 +qatsar > , Whose <04310 +miy >
damsel <05291 +na<arah > [ is ] this <02063 +zo>th > ?



02 : 06 And the servant <05288 +na<ar > that was set < 05324
+natsab > over <05921 +<al > the reapers <07114 +qatsar >
answered <06030 +<anah > and said <00559 +>amar > , It [ is ]
the Moabitish <04125 +Mow>abiy > damsel <05291 +na< arah > that
came <07725 +shuwb > back <07725 +shuwb > with Naomi <05281
+No<omiy > out of the country <07704 +sadeh > of Moab <04124
+Mow>ab > :



02 : 07 And she said <00559 +>amar > , I pray <04994 +na> > you ,
let me glean <03950 +laqat > and gather <00622 +> acaph > after
<00310 +>achar > the reapers <07114 +qatsar > among <00996 +beyn
> the sheaves <06016 +<omer > : so she came <00935 +bow> > , and
hath continued <05975 +<amad > even <00227 +>az > from the
morning <01242 +boqer > until <05704 +<ad > now <06258 +<attah >
, that she tarried <03427 +yashab > a little <04592 +m@<at > in
the house <01004 +bayith > .



02 : 08 Then said <00559 +>amar > Boaz <01162 +Bo< az > unto Ruth
<07327 +Ruwth > , Hearest <08085 +shama< > thou not , my
daughter <01323 +bath > ? Go <03212 +yalak > not to glean
<03950 +laqat > in another <00312 +>acher > field <07704 +sadeh
> , neither go <05674 +<abar > from hence <02088 +zeh > , but
abide <01692 +dabaq > here <03541 +koh > fast by my maidens
<05291 +na<arah > :



02 : 09 [ Let ] thine eyes <05869 +<ayin > [ be ] on the field
<07704 +sadeh > that they do reap <07114 +qatsar > , and go
<01980 +halak > thou after <00310 +>achar > them : have I not
charged <06680 +tsavah > the young <05288 +na<ar > men that they
shall not touch <05060 +naga< > thee ? and when thou art
athirst <06770 +tsame> > , go <01980 +halak > unto the vessels
<03627 +k@liy > , and drink <08354 +shathah > of [ that ] which
<00834 +>aher > the young <05288 +na<ar > men have drawn <07579
+sha>ab >

.



02 : 10 Then she fell <05307 +naphal > on <05921 +<al > her face
<06440 +paniym > , and bowed <07812 +shachah > herself to the
ground <00776 +>erets > , and said <00559 +>amar > unto him ,
Why <04069 +madduwa< > have I found <04672 +matsa> > grace
<02580 +chen > in thine eyes <05869 +<ayin > , that thou
shouldest take knowledge <05234 +nakar > of me , seeing I [ am ]
a stranger <05237 +nokriy > ?



02 : 11 And Boaz <01162 +Bo<az > answered <06030 +< anah > and
said <00559 +>amar > unto her , It hath fully <05046 +nagad >
been shewed <05046 +nagad > me , all <03605 +kol > that thou
hast done <06213 +<asah > unto thy mother <02545 +chamowth > in
law <02545 +chamowth > since <00310 +>achar > the death <04194
+maveth > of thine husband <00376 +>iysh > : and [ how ] thou
hast left <05800 +<azab > thy father <1> and thy mother <00517
+>em > , and the land <00776 +>erets > of thy nativity <04138
+mowledeth > , and art come <01980 +halak > unto a people <05971
+<am > which <00834 +>aher > thou knewest < 03045 +yada< > not
heretofore <08543 +t@mowl > .



02 : 12 The LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > recompense <07999 +shalam >
thy work <06467 +po<al > , and a full <08003 +shalem > reward
<04909 +maskoreth > be given thee of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah >
God <00430 +>elohiym > of Israel <03478 +Yisra>el > , under
<08478 +tachath > whose <00834 +>aher > wings < 03671 +kanaph >
thou art come <00935 +bow> > to trust <02620 +chacah > .



02 : 13 Then she said <00559 +>amar > , Let me find < 04672
+matsa> > favour <02580 +chen > in thy sight < 05869 +<ayin > ,
my lord <03068 +Y@hovah > ; for that thou hast comforted <05162
+nacham > me , and for that thou hast spoken <01696 +dabar >
friendly <03820 +leb > unto thine handmaid <08198 +shiphchah > ,
though I be not like unto one <00259 +>echad > of thine
handmaidens <08198 +shiphchah > .



02 : 14 And Boaz <01162 +Bo<az > said <00559 +> amar > unto her ,
At mealtime come <05060 +naga< > thou hither <01988 +halom > ,
and eat <00398 +>akal > of the bread <03899 +lechem > , and dip
<02881 +tabal > thy morsel <06595 +path > in the vinegar <02558
+chomets > . And she sat <03427 +yashab > beside < 06654 +tsad >
the reapers <07114 +qatsar > : and he reached <06642 +tsabat >
her parched <07039 +qaliy > [ corn ] , and she did eat < 00398
+>akal > , and was sufficed <07646 +saba< > , and left <03498
+yathar > .



02 : 15 And when she was risen <06965 +quwm > up to glean <03950
+laqat > , Boaz <01162 +Bo<az > commanded <06680 +tsavah > his
young <05288 +na<ar > men , saying <00559 +>amar > , Let her
glean <03950 +laqat > even <01571 +gam > among the sheaves
<06016 +<omer > , and reproach <03637 +kalam > her not :



02 : 16 And let fall <07997 +shalal > also <01571 +gam > [ some
] of the handfuls <06653 +tsebeth > of purpose <07997 +shalal >
for her , and leave <05800 +<azab > [ them ] , that she may
glean <03950 +laqat > [ them ] , and rebuke <01605 +ga<ar > her
not .



02 : 17 . So she gleaned <03950 +laqat > in the field < 07704
+sadeh > until <05704 +<ad > even <06153 +<ereb > , and beat
<02251 +chabat > out that she had gleaned <03950 +laqat > : and
it was about an ephah <00374 +>eyphah > of barley < 08184
+s@<orah > .



02 : 18 And she took <05375 +nasa> > [ it ] up , and went <00935
+bow> > into the city<05892 +<iyr > : and her mother <02545
+chamowth > in law <02545 +chamowth > saw <07200 +ra>ah > what
she had gleaned <03950 +laqat > : and she brought <03318 +yatsa>

she had reserved <03498 +yathar > after she was sufficed <07648
+soba< > .



02 : 19 And her mother <02545 +chamowth > in law <02545
+chamowth > said <00559 +>amar > unto her , Where < 00645 +>ephow

where <00375 +>eyphoh > wroughtest <06213 +<asah > thou ?
blessed <01288 +barak > be he that did take knowledge < 05234
+nakar > of thee . And she shewed <05046 +nagad > her mother
<02545 +chamowth > in law <02545 +chamowth > with whom she had
wrought <06213 +<asah > , and said <00559 +>amar > , The man s
<00376 +>iysh > name <08034 +shem > with whom I wrought <06213
+<asah > to day <03117 +yowm > [ is ] Boaz <01162 +Bo<az > .



02 : 20 And Naomi <05281 +No<omiy > said <00559 +> amar > unto
her daughter <03618 +kallah > in law <03618 +kallah > , Blessed

02 : 23 So she kept <01692 +dabaq > fast by the maidens < 05291

03 : 07 And when Boaz <01162 +Bo<az > had eaten < 00398 +>akal >

03 : 10 And he said <00559 +>amar > , Blessed <01288 +barak > [

And she told <05046 +nagad > her all <03605 +kol > that the man

03 : 17 And she said <00559 +>amar > , These <00428 +>el - leh >

Go <00935 +bow> > not empty <07387 +reyqam > unto thy mother

04 : 02 And he took <03947 +laqach > ten <06235 +< eser > men

If <00518 +>im > thou wilt redeem <01350 +ga>al > [ it ] ,

04 : 05 Then said <00559 +>amar > Boaz <01162 +Bo< az > , What

04 : 06 And the kinsman <01350 +ga>al > said <00559 +>amar > , I

04 : 07 Now this <02063 +zo>th > [ was the manner ] in former

04 : 08 Therefore the kinsman <01350 +ga>al > said < 00559 +>amar

04 : 11 And all <03605 +kol > the people <05971 +<am > that [

04 : 12 And let thy house <01004 +bayith > be like the house

04 : 15 And he shall be unto thee a restorer <07725 +shuwb > of

of thine old <07872 +seybah > age <07872 +seybah > : for thy
