Ruth 2:22 in Context — Ruth 2

20 E disse Noemi à sua nora: Seja ele bendito do SENHOR, pois que não recusou aos vivos a benevolência que teve para com os finados. Disse-lhe depois Noemi: Nosso parente é aquele homem, e de nossos remidores é.

21 E Rute moabita disse: a mais disto me disse: Junta-te com meus criados, até que tenham acabado toda minha colheita.

22 E Noemi respondeu a Rute sua nora: Melhor é, filha minha, que saias com suas criadas, que não que te encontrem em outro campo.

23 Esteve, pois, junto com as moças de Boaz tirando espigas, até que a colheita das cevadas e a dos trigos foi acabada; mas com sua sogra habitou.
