1Now Naomi had a relative on her husband's side, a prominent man of noble character from the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.
“And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.”

“And Nemi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.”
2And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, "Please let me go into the fields and glean heads of grain after someone in whose sight I may find favor." "Go ahead, my daughter," Naomi replied.
“And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Nanny,. Let me now go to the field and glean ears of corn after him, in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said unto her,. Go, my daughter.”
“And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, let me now go to the field and glean ears of corn after him and whose side I shall find grace. And she said unto her, go my daughter.”
“And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Please let me go to the field and glean among the ears of grain. After what and whose side I may find favor. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.”
3So Ruth departed and went out into the field and gleaned after the harvesters. And she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelech.
“And she went and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers and her hop was to light on a part of the field belonging unto Boaz who was of the kindred of Elimelech.”
“And she went and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers. And her hat was to light on a part of the field belonging unto Boaz, who was of the kindred of Alimelech.”

“and she went and came and gleaned in the field after the reapers and her hat was to light on the part of the field belonging unto Boaz who was of the kindred of Elimelech.”
4Just then Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and said to the harvesters, "The LORD be with you." "The LORD bless you," they replied.
“Now behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said to the reapers, May the Lord be with you. And they said to him, May the Lord bless you.”
“And behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and he said to the reapers, the Lord be with you. And they answered him, the Lord bless”
“And behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said unto the reapers, The Lord be with you. And they answered him, The Lord bless thee.”
“And behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said unto the reapers, the Lord be with you. And they answered him, the Lord bless thee.”
“And behold Boaz came from Bethlehem and said unto the reapers the Lord be with you and they answered him the Lord bless thee.”
5And Boaz asked the foreman of his harvesters, "Whose young woman is this?"
“then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers, whose damsel is this?”
“Then Boaz said to his servant who was in charge of the Reapers whose young woman is this.”
“Then Boaz said to his servant who was in charge of the reapers, Whose young woman is this?”
“Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over his reapers, Whose damsel is this?”
6The foreman answered, "She is the Moabitess who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.
“And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said,. It is the Moabitess damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab.”
“And the servant that was over the reapers answered and said, it is the Moabites, the Moabites damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab.”

“the servant in charge of the reapers answered and said, She is the young Moabite woman who returned with Naomi from the land of Moab.”
7She has said, 'Please let me glean and gather among the sheaves after the harvesters.' So she came out and has continued from morning until now, except that she rested a short time in the shelter."
“And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves. So she came and hath continued even from the morning until now, That she tarried a little in the house.”

8Then Boaz said to Ruth, "Listen, my daughter. Do not go and glean in another field, and do not go away from this place, but stay here close to my servant girls.
“Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou not my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, Neither go from hence, But abide here fast by my maidens.”
“"'Then Boaz said to Ruth, you will listen, my daughter, "'will you not? "'Do not go to glean in another field, nor go from here, "'but stay close by, my young women.”
“Then Boaz said to Ruth, Listen carefully, my daughter. Do not go to glean in another field. Furthermore, do not go from this one, but stay here with my maid.”
“Then said Boaz unto Ruth, here is thou not my daughter. Go not to glean in another field, neither go from fence but abide here fast by my maidens.”
“Then Boaz said to Ruth you will listen my daughter. Will you not go and glean. Do not go and glean in another field nor go out from here but stay close by my young women”
“Then said Boaz unto Ruth hear us. I'll not my daughter go not to glean in another field neither go from hence. But abide here fast by my maidens.”
9Let your eyes be on the field they are harvesting, and follow along after these girls. Indeed, I have ordered the young men not to touch you. And when you are thirsty, go and drink from the jars the young men have filled."
“Let thine eyes be on the field that they do reap, And go thou after them. Have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch thee? And when thou art athirst, Go unto the vessels, And drink of that which the young men have…”
“"'Let your eyes be on the field which they reap "'and go after them. "'Have I not commanded the young man not to touch you? "'And when you are thirsty, go to the vessels and drink "'from what the young men have drawn.'.”

10At this, she fell on her face, bowing low to the ground, and said to him, "Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you should take notice of me, even though I am a foreigner?"
“Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground and said unto him, why have I found grace in thine eyes that thou shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger?”
“Then she fell on her face, bowing to the ground and said to him, Why have I found favor in your sight that you should take notice of me since I am a foreigner?”
“"'So she fell on her face, and bowed down to the grind, "'and said to him, why have I found favor in your eyes, "'that you should take notice of me since I am a foreigner?”
“Then she fell on her face and bowed herself to the ground and said unto him Why have I found grace in an eyes that thou shouldst take knowledge of me seeing? I am a stranger”
“Then she fell on her face, And bowed herself to the ground and said,. Why have I found grace in thine eyes, That thou shouldest take knowledge of me, Seeing I am a stranger?”
11Boaz replied, "I have been made fully aware of all you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, how you left your father and mother and the land of your birth, and how you came to a people you did not know before.
“"'And Boaz answered and said to her, "'it has been fully reported to me all that you have done "'for your mother -in -law since the death of your husband, "'and how you have left your father and your mother "'and the land of your…”

14At mealtime Boaz said to her, "Come over here; have some bread and dip it into the vinegar sauce." So she sat down beside the harvesters, and he offered her roasted grain, and she ate and was satisfied and had some left over.
“And Boaz said unto her, at mealtime come thou thither and eat of the bread and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers and he reached her parched corn and she did eat and was sufficed and left.”

“And Boaz said unto her,. Have mealtime, Come thou hither and eat of the bread, And dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers, And he reached her parched corn, And she did eat, and was sufficed, and left.”
15When Ruth got up to glean, Boaz ordered his young men, "Even if she gathers among the sheaves, do not insult her.
“and when she was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men saying, let her glean even among the sheaves and reproach her not.”

16Rather, pull out for her some stalks from the bundles and leave them for her to gather. Do not rebuke her."
“and let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her and leave them that she may glean them and rebuke her not.”
“Let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them that she may glean them and rebuke her not.”

“"'Also let grain from the bundles fall purposefully for her. "'Leave it that she may glean, and do not rebuke her.”
“And let fall also some of the handfuls of peppers for her, And leave them. But she may glean them, and rebuke her not.”
17So Ruth gathered grain in the field until evening. And when she beat out what she had gleaned, it was about an ephah of barley.
“So she gleaned in the field until even and beat out that she had gleaned and it was about an ephod of barley.”
“"'So she gleaned in the field until evening, "'and beat out what she had gleaned, "'and it was about an ephah of barley.”
“So she gleaned in the field until even, And beat out that she had gleaned, And it was about an ether of barley.”
“So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out what she had gleaned and it was about an ephah, a barley.”
18She picked up the grain and went into the town, where her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. And she brought out what she had saved from her meal and gave it to Naomi.
“And she took it up, and went into the city. And her mother -in -law saw what she had gleaned, And she brought forth and gave to her That she had reserved after she was sufficed.”
“And she took it up and went into the city, and her mother -in -law saw what she had gleaned, and she brought forth and gave it to her that she had reserved after that she was sufficed.”
“she took it up and went into the city. And her mother -in -law saw what she had gleaned. She also took it out and gave Naomi what she had left after and she was satisfied.”
“she took it up and went into the city, "'and her mother -in -law saw what she had gleaned, "'and she brought out what he gave to her, "'and what she had kept back after she had been satisfied.”
19Then her mother-in-law asked her, "Where did you glean today, and where did you work? Blessed be the man who noticed you." So she told her mother-in-law where she had worked. "The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz," she said.
“And her mother -in -law said unto her,. Where hast thou gleaned to -day, And where wartest thou? Blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee. And she showed her mother -in -law with whom she had wrought, and said,. The man's…”
“her mother -in -law said to her, Where did you glean today and where did you work? May he who took notice of you be blessed. So she told her mother -in -law with whom she had worked and said, The name of the man with whom I…”
“"'And her mother -in -law said to her, "'where have you gleaned today, and where did you work? "'Blessed be the one who took notice of you. "'So she told her mother -in -law with whom she had worked, "'and said, the man's name…”
“her mother -in -law said at her where have you gleaned today. And where did you work. Blessed be the one who took notice of you. So she told her mother -in -law with whom she had worked and she said well the man's name with whom…”
“and her mother -in -law said unto her where hast thou gleaned today and where wroughtest thou blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee. And she showed her mother -in -law with whom she had wrought and said the man's name…”
“And her mother -in -law said unto her, where hast thou gleaned today, and where wroughtest thou? Blessed be he that take it, that take, sorry, that did take knowledge of thee. And she showed her mother -in -law with whom she had…”
20Then Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, "May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not withdrawn His kindness from the living or the dead." Naomi continued, "The man is a close relative. He is one of our kinsman-redeemers."
“And Naomi said unto her, Daughter -in -law, blessed be he of the Lord who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said unto her, The man is near of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen.”
“And Naomi said to her daughter -in -law, Blessed be he of the Lord,. Who hath not left off his kindness To the living and to the dead. And Naomi said unto her, The man is near of kin unto us, One of our next kinsmen.”
“And Naomi said unto her, to her daughter -in -law, blessed is he of the Lord, who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said unto her, the man is near of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen.”
“Naomi said unto her daughter -in -law, Blessed be he of the Lord, who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. Naomi said unto her, verse 20, The man is near of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen,”
“"'Then Naomi said to her daughter -in -law, "'Blessed be the Lord who has not forsaken his kindness "'to the living and the dead. "'And Naomi said to her, this man is a relation of ours, "'one of our close relatives.”
“Naomi said to her daughter -in -law, May he be blessed with the Lord who has not withdrawn his kindness to the living and the dead. Again Naomi said to her, The man is our relative. He is one of our closest relatives.”
21Then Ruth the Moabitess said, "He also told me, 'Stay with my young men until they have finished gathering all my harvest.'"
“And Ruth the Moabitess said,. He said unto me also, Thou shalt keep fast by my young men Until they have ended all my harvest.”
“Then Ruth the Moabitess said, Furthermore, he said to me, You should stay close to my servants until they have finished all my harvest.”
“And Ruth the Moabitess said, he said unto me also, thou shalt keep fast by the young men until they have ended all my harvest.”
“And Ruth, the Moabitess said, he said unto me also, you shall stay fast by my young men until they have ended all my harvest.”
“"'Ruth the Moabitess said, he also said to me, "'you shall stay close to my young man "'until they have finished all my harvest.”
22And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law Ruth, "My daughter, it is good for you to work with his young women, so that nothing will happen to you in another field."
“And Naomi said unto Ruth, her daughter -in -law, it is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field.”
“"'And Naomi said to Ruth, her daughter -in -law, "'it is good my daughter that you go out "'with his young woman, "'and that people do not meet you in any other field.”
“And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter -in -law,. It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, That they meet thee not in any other field.”
23So Ruth stayed close to the servant girls of Boaz to glean grain until the barley and wheat harvests were finished. And she lived with her mother-in-law.
“So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz To glean unto the end of barley harvest And of wheat harvest, and dwelt with her mother -in -law.”
“So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest and dwelt with her mother -in -law.”
“So she stayed close by the maids of Boaz in order to glean until the end of the barley harvest and the wheat harvest. And she lived with her mother -in -law.”
“"'So she stayed close by the young women of Boaz "'to glean until the end of the barley harvest "'and wheat harvest, and she dwelt with her mother -in -law.'".”
