Ruth 2:6 in Context — Ruth 2

4 E eis que Boaz veio de Belém, e disse aos ceifeiros: O SENHOR seja convosco. E eles responderam: O SENHOR te abençoe.

5 E Boaz disse a seu criado o supervisor dos ceifeiros: De quem é esta moça?

6 E o criado, supervisor dos ceifeiros, respondeu e disse: É a moça de Moabe, que voltou com Noemi dos campos de Moabe;

7 E disse: Rogo-te que me deixes colher e juntar atrás dos ceifeiros entre os feixes; entrou, pois, e está desde pela manhã até agora, menos um pouco que se deteve em casa.

8 Então Boaz disse á Rute: Ouve, filha minha, não vás a tirar espigas em outro campo, nem passes daqui: e aqui estarás com minhas moças.
