Ruth 2:6-8

EasyEnglish Bible

⁶ The man said, ‘She is that young woman from Moab, who returned from Moab with Naomi. ⁷ She asked me, “Please let me walk behind your workers. Then I can pick up the grains of barley that they leave on the ground.” She has worked very hard in the field since she arrived this morning. She only had a short rest in the hut.’

⁸ So Boaz said to Ruth, ‘Young woman, listen to me. Do not go and pick up grains of barley in any other field. Stay here in this field and work beside my servant girls.
