14 So Ruth lay near his feet until the morning. She rose while it was still too dark to be recognized. Boaz said to his servants, “Don’t tell anyone that the woman came here to the threshing floor.”
15 Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Bring me your shawl. Now, hold it open.”So Ruth held her shawl open, and Boaz poured six portions of barley into it. Boaz then put it on her back, and she went to the city.
16 Ruth went to the home of her mother-in-law. And Naomi asked, “How did you do, my daughter?”So Ruth told Naomi everything that Boaz did for her.
17 She said, “Boaz gave me these six portions of barley. He said, ‘You must not go home without a gift for your mother-in-law.’”
18 Naomi answered, “Ruth, my daughter, wait until you hear what happens. Boaz will not rest until he has finished doing what he should do this day.”
