Ruth 3:6-9

New International Version

⁶ So she went down to the threshing floor^(A) and did everything her mother-in-law told her to do.

⁷ When Boaz had finished eating and drinking and was in good spirits,^(B) he went over to lie down at the far end of the grain pile.^(C) Ruth approached quietly, uncovered his feet and lay down. ⁸ In the middle of the night something startled the man; he turned—and there was a woman lying at his feet!

⁹ “Who are you?” he asked.

“I am your servant Ruth,” she said. “Spread the corner of your garment^(D) over me, since you are a guardian-redeemer^[a](E) of our family.”
