Ruth 1:22-2:4 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabite her daughter-in-law with her, returning from the countryside of Moab. And they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of the harvest of barley.

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabite her daughter-in-law with her, returning from the countryside of Moab. And they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of the harvest of barley. ² ¹ _⌊Now_⌋* Naomi _⌊had a relative of her husband_⌋,* _⌊a prominent rich man_⌋* from the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz. ² And Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, "Please let me go to the field and glean among the ears of grain after someone in whose eyes I may find favor." And she said to her, "Go, my daughter." ³ So she went and came and gleaned in the field behind the reapers. And she happened by chance upon the tract of field _⌊belonging to_⌋* Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelech. ⁴ And look, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said to the reapers, "May Yahweh be with you." And they said to him, "May Yahweh bless you."
