Ruth 2:9-11

New Catholic Bible

⁹ Keep your eyes on the field that they are reaping, and follow after them. I have told the young men not to bother you. When you are thirsty, go to the water jars and drink from what the young men have drawn.” ¹⁰ She bowed down with her face to the ground and said, “Why have I, a foreigner, found favor in your sight that you should take notice of me?” ¹¹ But Boaz answered her, “I have been informed of all that you have done for your mother-in-law since your husband died, how you left your father and your mother and the land of your birth and came to live with a people whom you had not previously known.
