Ruth 2:3 in Context — Ruth 2
1 Naomi avait un parent de son mari. C’était un homme puissant et riche, de la famille d’Élimélec, et qui se nommait Boaz.
2 Ruth la Moabite dit à Naomi: Laisse-moi, je te prie, aller glaner des épis dans le champ de celui aux yeux duquel je trouverai grâce. Elle lui répondit: Va, ma fille.
3 Elle alla glaner dans un champ, derrière les moissonneurs. Et il se trouva par hasard que la pièce de terre appartenait à Boaz, qui était de la famille d’Élimélec.
4 Et voici, Boaz vint de Bethléhem, et il dit aux moissonneurs: Que l’Éternel soit avec vous! Ils lui répondirent: Que l’Éternel te bénisse!
5 Et Boaz dit à son serviteur chargé de surveiller les moissonneurs: A qui est cette jeune femme?
