Ruth 2:16-18

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁶ You must also pull out some handfuls for her from the bundles, and leave them for her to glean, and do not rebuke her.’

¹⁷ So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley. ¹⁸ She picked it up and came into the town, and her mother-in-law saw how much she had gleaned. Then she took out and gave her what was left over after she herself had been satisfied.
