Ruth 2:15 in Context — Ruth 2

13 Et elle dit: Oh! Que je trouve grâce à tes yeux, mon seigneur! Car tu m’as consolée, et tu as parlé au cœur de ta servante. Et pourtant je ne suis pas, moi, comme l’une de tes servantes.

14 Au moment du repas, Boaz dit à Ruth: Approche, mange du pain, et trempe ton morceau dans le vinaigre. Elle s’assit à côté des moissonneurs. On lui donna du grain rôti; elle mangea et se rassasia, et elle garda le reste.

15 Puis elle se leva pour glaner. Boaz donna cet ordre à ses serviteurs: Qu’elle glane aussi entre les gerbes, et ne l’inquiétez pas,

16 et même vous ôterez pour elle des gerbes quelques épis, que vous la laisserez glaner, sans lui faire de reproches.

17 Elle glana dans le champ jusqu’au soir, et elle battit ce qu’elle avait glané. Il y eut environ un épha d’orge.
