Ruth 3:9-11

International Standard Version

⁹ He asked her, “Who are you?”

She answered, “I’m only Ruth, your servant. Spread the edge^[a] 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^[b] by not pursuing younger men, whether rich or poor. ¹¹ Don’t be afraid, my daughter. I’ll do for you everything that you have asked, since all of my people in town are aware that you’re a virtuous^[c] woman.
