² And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, “Please let me go to the field and gather ears of corn after him in whose sight I find favor.” And she said to her, “Go, my daughter.”

³ And she went; and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers. And it happened that she came upon the portion of the field of Boaz (who was of the family of Elimelech).
