Naomi Discovers the Kinsman

Ruth 2:18-23

Which she took up, and returned into the city, and shewed it to her mother in law: moreover, she brought out, and gave her of the remains of her meat, wherewith she had been filled.

And her mother in law said to her: Where hast thou gleaned today, and where hast thou wrought? blessed be he that hath had pity on thee. And she told her with whom she had wrought: and she told the man's name, that he was called Booz.

And Noemi answered her: Blessed be he of the Lord: because the same kindness which he shewed to the living, he hath kept also to the dead. And again she said: The man is our kinsman.

And Ruth said: He also charged me, that I should keep close to his reapers, till all the corn should be reaped.

And her mother in law said to her: It is better for thee, my daughter, to go out to reap with his maids, lest in another man's field some one may resist thee.

So she kept close to the maids of Booz: and continued to glean with them, till all the barley and the wheat were laid up in the barns.
