절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Naomi Makes Plans for Ruth One day, Naomi said to Ruth: It's time I found you a husband, who will give you a home and take care of you.	Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?
2	You have been picking up grain alongside the women who work for Boaz, and you know he is a relative of ours. Tonight he will be threshing the grain.	And now is not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley to night in the threshingfloor.
3	Now take a bath and put on some perfume, then dress in your best clothes. Go where he is working, but don't let him see you until he has finished eating and drinking.	Wash thyself therefore, and anoint thee, and put thy raiment upon thee, and get thee down to the floor: but make not thyself known unto the man, until he shall have done eating and drinking.
4	Watch where he goes to spend the night, then when he is asleep, lift the cover and lie down at his feet. He will tell you what to do.	And it shall be, when he lieth down, that thou shalt mark the place where he shall lie, and thou shalt go in, and uncover his feet, and lay thee down; and he will tell thee what thou shalt do.
5	Ruth answered, “I'll do whatever you say.”	And she said unto her, All that thou sayest unto me I will do.
6	She went out to the place where Boaz was working and did what Naomi had told her.	And she went down unto the floor, and did according to all that her mother in law bade her.
7	After Boaz finished eating and drinking and was feeling happy, he went over and fell asleep near the pile of grain. Ruth slipped over quietly. She lifted the cover and lay down near his feet.	And when Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of corn: and she came softly, and uncovered his feet, and laid her down.
8	In the middle of the night, Boaz suddenly woke up and was shocked to see a woman lying at his feet.	And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was afraid, and turned himself: and, behold, a woman lay at his feet.
9	“Who are you?” he asked. “Sir, I am Ruth,” she answered, “and you are the relative who is supposed to take care of me. So spread the edge of your cover over me.”	And he said, Who art thou? And she answered, I am Ruth thine handmaid: spread therefore thy skirt over thine handmaid; for thou art a near kinsman.
10	Boaz replied: The Lord bless you! This shows how truly loyal you are to your family. You could have looked for a younger man, either rich or poor, but you didn't.	And he said, Blessed be thou of the Lord, my daughter: for thou hast shewed more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, inasmuch as thou followedst not young men, whether poor or rich.
11	Don't worry, I'll do what you have asked. You are respected by everyone in town.	And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest: for all the city of my people doth know that thou art a virtuous woman.
12	It's true that I am one of the relatives who is supposed to take care of you, but there is someone who is an even closer relative.	And now it is true that I am thy near kinsman: howbeit there is a kinsman nearer than I.
13	Stay here until morning, then I will find out if he is willing to look after you. If he isn't, I promise by the living God to do it myself. Now go back to sleep until morning.	Tarry this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman, well; let him do the kinsman’s part: but if he will not do the part of a kinsman to thee, then will I do the part of a kinsman to thee, as the Lord liveth: lie down until the morning.
14	Ruth lay down again, but she got up before daylight, because Boaz did not want anyone to know she had been there.	And she lay at his feet until the morning: and she rose up before one could know another. And he said, Let it not be known that a woman came into the floor.
15	Then he told her to spread out her cape. And he filled it with grain and placed it on her shoulder. When Ruth got back to town,	Also he said, Bring the vail that thou hast upon thee, and hold it. And when she held it, he measured six measures of barley, and laid it on her: and she went into the city.
16	Naomi asked her what had happened, and Ruth told her everything.	And when she came to her mother in law, she said, Who art thou, my daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.
17	She also said, “Boaz gave me this grain, because he didn't want me to come back without something for you.”	And she said, These six measures of barley gave he me; for he said to me, Go not empty unto thy mother in law.
18	Naomi replied, “Just be patient and don't worry about what will happen. He won't rest until everything is settled today!”	Then said she, Sit still, my daughter, until thou know how the matter will fall: for the man will not be in rest, until he have finished the thing this day.
