Ruth gleans about an ephah of barley, and Naomi says Boaz is one of their near kinsmen

룻이 보리 한 에바쯤을 줍고 나오미가 보아스를 기업 무를 자 중 하나라고 말함

Ruth 2:17–23: Ruth gleans in the field until evening and beats out that which she has gleaned, and it is about an ephah of barley. She takes it up and goes into the city. Her mother-in-law sees what Ruth has gleaned, and Ruth brings out and gives her that which she had left after she had enough. Her mother-in-law says to her, “Where have you gleaned today? Where have you worked? Blessed be he who noticed you.” Ruth tells her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, “The man’s name with whom I worked today is Boaz.” Naomi says to her daughter-in-law, “May he be blessed by the LORD, who has not abandoned his kindness to the living and to the dead.” Naomi says to her, “The man is a close relative to us, one of our near kinsmen.” Ruth the Moabitess says, “Yes, he said to me, ‘You shall stay close to my young men until they have finished all my harvest.’” Naomi says to Ruth her daughter-in-law, “It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, and that they not harm you in any other field.” So Ruth stays close to the maidens of Boaz, to glean to the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest, and she lives with her mother-in-law. At 2:20 the WEB has the LORD as the one who has not abandoned his kindness to the living and to the dead; in the Korean Revised Version it is the man on whom Naomi asks the LORD’s blessing.
