Ruth 3:15 in Context — Ruth 3

13 Repousa esta noite, e quando for de dia, se ele te redimir, bem, redima-te; mas se ele não te quiser redimir, eu te redimirei, vive o SENHOR. Descansa, pois, até a manhã.

14 E depois que repousou a seus pés até a manhã, levantou-se, antes que ninguém pudesse conhecer a outro. E ele disse: Não se saiba que tenha vindo mulher à eira.

15 Depois lhe disse: Aproxima o lenço que trazes sobre ti, e segura-o. E enquanto ela o segurava, ele mediu seis medidas de cevada, e as pôs às costas: e veio ela à cidade.

16 Assim que veio à sua sogra, esta lhe disse: Que houve, minha filha? E ela lhe declarou ela tudo o que com aquele homem lhe havia acontecido.

17 E disse: Estas seis medidas de cevada me deu, dizendo-me: Porque não vás vazia à tua sogra.
