Ruth 3:2 in Context — Ruth 3

1 Naomi, sa belle-mère, lui dit: Ma fille, je voudrais assurer ton repos, afin que tu fusses heureuse.

2 Et maintenant Boaz, avec les servantes duquel tu as été, n’est-il pas notre parent? Voici, il doit vanner cette nuit les orges qui sont dans l’aire.

3 Lave-toi et oins-toi, puis remets tes habits, et descends à l’aire. Tu ne te feras pas connaître à lui, jusqu’à ce qu’il ait achevé de manger et de boire.

4 Et quand il ira se coucher, observe le lieu où il se couche. Ensuite va, découvre ses pieds, et couche-toi. Il te dira lui-même ce que tu as à faire.
