1 One day, Naomi said to Ruth:It's time I found you a husband, who will give you a home and take care of you.
2 You have been picking up grain beside the women who work for Boaz, and you know he is a relative of ours. Tonight he will be threshing the grain.
3 Now take a bath and put on some perfume, then dress in your best clothes. Go where he is working, but don't let him see you until he has finished eating and drinking.
4 Watch where he goes to spend the night, then when he is asleep, lift the cover and lie down at his feet. He will tell you what to do.
5 Ruth answered, “I'll do whatever you say.”
6 She went out to the place where Boaz was working and did what Naomi had told her.
