Ruth 3:8 in Context — Ruth 3
6 Desceu, pois à eira, e fez tudo o que sua sogra lhe havia mandado.
7 E quando Boaz havia comido e bebido, e seu coração esteve contente, retirou-se para dormir a um lado do amontoado. Então ela veio caladamente, e revelou os pés, e deitou-se.
8 E aconteceu, que à meia noite se estremeceu aquele homem, e apalpou: e eis que, a mulher que estava deitada a seus pés.
9 Então ele disse: Quem és? E ela respondeu: Eu sou Rute tua serva: estende a borda de tua capa sobre tua serva, porquanto és parente próximo.
10 E ele disse: Bendita sejas tu do SENHOR, filha minha; que fizeste melhor tua última bondade que a primeira, não indo atrás dos rapazes, sejam pobres ou ricos.
