Chapter Two And Naomi had a kinsman of her
husband's, a mighty man of wealth,

00:05.760 --> 00:06.860
of the family of Elimelech.

00:07.300 --> 00:08.680
And his name was Boaz.

00:09.100 --> 00:13.260
And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi,
Let me now go to the field and glean ears

00:13.260 --> 00:16.120
of corn after him, in whose sight I shall
find grace.

00:16.340 --> 00:18.580
And she said unto her, Go, my daughter.

00:18.920 --> 00:22.080
And she went and came, and gleaned in the
field after the reapers.

00:22.660 --> 00:26.580
And her hap was to light on a part of the
field belonging unto Boaz, who was of the

00:26.580 --> 00:27.620
kindred of Elimelech.

00:27.620 --> 00:32.760
And, behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem,
and said unto the reapers, The Lord be

00:32.760 --> 00:33.220
with you.

00:33.420 --> 00:35.380
And they answered him, The Lord bless
thee.

00:35.540 --> 00:39.280
Then said Boaz unto his servant that was
set over the reapers, Whose damsel is

00:39.280 --> 00:39.640
this?

00:39.780 --> 00:43.120
And the servant that was set over the
reapers answered and said, It is the

00:43.120 --> 00:46.500
Moabitess damsel that came back with Naomi
out of the country of Moab.

00:46.980 --> 00:51.120
And she said, I pray you, let me glean and
gather after the reapers among the

00:51.120 --> 00:51.500
sheaves.

00:51.500 --> 00:57.020
So she came, and hath continued even from
the morning until now that she tarried a

00:57.020 --> 00:57.860
little in the house.

00:58.020 --> 01:01.040
Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou
not, my daughter?

01:01.440 --> 01:06.220
Go not to glean in another field,
neither go from hence, but abide here fast

01:06.220 --> 01:07.300
by my maidens.

01:07.820 --> 01:11.940
Let thine eyes be on the field that they
do reap, and go thou after them.

01:12.480 --> 01:15.080
Have I not charged the young men that they
shall not touch thee?

01:15.380 --> 01:19.500
And when thou art athirst, go unto the
vessels, and drink of that which the young

01:19.500 --> 01:20.380
men have drawn.

01:20.380 --> 01:25.000
Then she fell on her face, and bowed
herself to the ground, and said unto him,

01:25.140 --> 01:29.080
Why have I found grace in thine eyes,
that thou shouldest take knowledge of me,

01:29.220 --> 01:30.380
seeing I am a stranger?

01:30.740 --> 01:34.640
And Boaz answered and said unto her,
It hath fully been showed me all that thou

01:34.640 --> 01:39.180
hast done unto thy mother-in-law since the
death of thine husband, and how thou hast

01:39.180 --> 01:43.860
left thy father and thy mother and the
land of thy nativity, and art come unto a

01:43.860 --> 01:46.080
people which thou knewest not heretofore.

01:46.080 --> 01:51.400
The Lord recompense thy work, and a full
reward be given thee of the Lord God of

01:51.400 --> 01:54.880
Israel, under whose wings thou art come to
trust.

01:55.200 --> 01:59.280
Then she said, Let me find favor in thy
sight, my lord, for that thou hast

01:59.280 --> 02:03.080
comforted me, and for that thou hast
spoken friendly unto thine handmaid,

02:03.700 --> 02:06.180
though I be not like unto one of thine
handmaidens.

02:06.340 --> 02:10.840
And Boaz said unto her, At mealtime come
thou hither, and eat of the bread,

02:10.960 --> 02:12.920
and dip thy morsel in the vinegar.

02:12.920 --> 02:16.480
And she sat beside the reapers,
and he reached her parched corn,

02:16.720 --> 02:19.200
and she did eat, and was sufficed,
and left.

02:19.860 --> 02:23.700
And when she was risen up to glean,
Boaz commanded his young men, saying,

02:23.980 --> 02:29.460
Let her glean even among the sheaves,
and reproach her not, and let fall also

02:29.460 --> 02:34.420
some of the handfuls of purpose for her,
and leave them, that she may glean them,

02:34.640 --> 02:36.460
and rebuke her not.

02:36.620 --> 02:40.900
So she gleaned in the field until even,
and beat out that she had gleaned.

02:40.900 --> 02:42.880
And it was about an ephah of barley.

02:44.040 --> 02:45.800
And she took it up, and went into the
city.

02:46.180 --> 02:49.460
And her mother-in-law saw what she had
gleaned, and she brought forth,

02:49.820 --> 02:52.420
and gave to her that she had reserved
after she was sufficed.

02:52.800 --> 02:55.760
And her mother-in-law said unto her,
Where hast thou gleaned to-day,

02:55.880 --> 02:57.220
and where wroughtest thou?

02:57.940 --> 03:00.900
Blessed be he that did take knowledge of
thee.

03:01.140 --> 03:04.660
And she showed her mother-in-law with whom
she had wrought, and said, The man's name

03:04.660 --> 03:06.380
with whom I wrought to-day is Boaz.

03:06.520 --> 03:11.100
And Naomi said unto her daughter-in-law,
Blessed be he of the Lord, who hath not

03:11.100 --> 03:14.440
left off his kindness to the living and to
the dead.

03:14.780 --> 03:19.680
And Naomi said unto her, The man is near
of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen.

03:19.920 --> 03:24.700
And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said unto
me also, Thou shalt keep fast by my young

03:24.700 --> 03:26.800
men, until they have ended all my harvest.

03:27.160 --> 03:30.640
And Naomi said unto Ruth her
daughter-in-law, It is good, my daughter,

03:30.900 --> 03:35.660
that thou go out with his maidens,
that they meet thee not in any other

03:35.660 --> 03:36.060
field.

03:36.060 --> 03:40.820
So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to
glean unto the end of barley harvest and

03:40.820 --> 03:43.320
of wheat harvest, and dwelt with her
mother-in-law.
