Ruth 3:13-15

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹³ Spend the night here. If in the morning he acts as a redeemer for you, good. Let him redeem. But if he does not want to act as a redeemer for you, then I will act as a redeemer for you myself, as the Lord lives! Lie down here until morning.”

¹⁴ So she lay down at his feet until morning. She got up before it was light enough for anyone to recognize a person.

But Boaz thought, “No one should know that a woman came to the threshing floor.” ¹⁵ So he said, “Come here and hold out the shawl that you are wearing.” So she held it out. He measured out six scoops^[a] of barley into it for her to carry home. Then he^[b] returned to town.
