Ruth 3:8-10

International Standard Version

⁸ In the middle of the night, Boaz^[a] was startled awake and turned over in surprise to see a woman lying at his feet.

⁹ He asked her, “Who are you?”

She answered, “I’m only Ruth, your servant. Spread the edge^[b] of your garment over your servant, because you are my related redeemer.”

¹⁰ He replied, “May you be blessed by the Lord, my daughter. You’ve added to the gracious love you’ve already demonstrated^[c] by not pursuing younger men, whether rich or poor.
