Ruth 2:9 in Context — Ruth 2
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.
9 Olha bem o campo que colherem, e segue-as: porque eu mandei aos moços que não te toquem. E se tiveres sede, vai aos vasos, e bebe da água que os moços tirarem.
10 Ela então baixando seu rosto inclinou-se à terra, e disse-lhe: Por que achei favor em teus olhos para que tu me reconheças, sendo eu estrangeira?
11 E respondendo Boaz, disse-lhe: Por certo se me declarou tudo o que fizeste com tua sogra depois da morte de teu marido, e que deixando teu pai e tua mãe e a terra de onde nasceste, vieste a um povo que não conheceste antes.
