Ruth 2:17-19
Christian Standard Bible
17 So Ruth gathered grain in the field until evening. She beat out what she had gathered, and it was about twenty-six quarts[a] of barley. 18 She picked up the grain and went into the town, where her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. She brought out what she had left over from her meal and gave it to her.
19 Her mother-in-law said to her, “Where did you gather barley today, and where did you work? May the Lord bless the man who noticed you.”(A)
Ruth told her mother-in-law whom she had worked with and said, “The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz.”
