Boaz
«Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.»
«Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens: / Let thine eyes be on the field that they do reap, and go thou after them: have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch thee? and when thou art athirst, go unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have drawn.»
«So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.»
«Now these are the generations of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron, / And Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminadab, / And Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon, / And Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed, / And Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.»
«So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and dwelt with her mother in law.»
«Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in thine eyes, that thou shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger? / And Boaz answered and said unto her, It hath fully been shewed me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother in law since the death of thine husband: and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come unto a people which thou knewest not heretofore.»
«Then went Boaz up to the gate, and sat him down there: and, behold, the kinsman of whom Boaz spake came by; unto whom he said, Ho, such a one! turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside, and sat down.»
«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? / And now is not Boaz of our kindred, with whose maidens thou wast? Behold, he winnoweth barley to night in the threshingfloor.»
«Then said Boaz unto his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose damsel is this? / And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab: / And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, that she tarried a little in the house.»
