Ruth 2:15-17

Good News Translation

^15-16 After she had left to go and gather grain, Boaz ordered the workers, “Let her gather grain even where the bundles are lying, and don't say anything to stop her. Besides that, pull out some heads of grain from the bundles and leave them for her to pick up.”

¹⁷ So Ruth gathered grain in the field until evening, and when she had beaten it out, she found she had nearly twenty-five pounds.
