Ruth 2:6-8

New Catholic Bible

⁶ The foreman of the harvesters answered, “The young woman is a Moabite. She came back with Naomi from the land of Moab. ⁷ She said, ‘Please let me glean and gather the sheaves after the harvesters.’ She arrived early this morning and has continued working continuously until now, except for a short rest in the shelter.”

⁸ So Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen to me, my daughter. Do not go and glean in any other field and do not go away from here. Stay here with my servant girls.
