Boaz replied to her, “All that you have done for your mother-in-law after the death of your husband has been fully reported to me, and how you left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and came to a people that you did not previously know.

Her mother-in-law then said to her, “Where did you glean today and where did you work? May he who took notice of you be blessed.” So she told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked and said, “The name of the man with whom I worked today is Boaz.”

So she went down to the threshing floor and did according to all that her mother-in-law had commanded her.

When she came to her mother-in-law, she said, “How did it go, my daughter?” And she told her all that the man had done for her.
