Ruth 3:10

10 Boaz replied, "May the LORD bless you, my daughter. This last kindness--that you didn't go after the younger men, whether rich or poor--is better than the first.

Ruth 3:10 In-Context

8 At midnight the man was shivering. When he turned over, he was surprised to see a woman lying at his feet.
9 "Who are you?" he asked. She answered, "I am Ruth. Spread the corner of your garment over me because you are a close relative who can take care of me."
10 Boaz replied, "May the LORD bless you, my daughter. This last kindness--that you didn't go after the younger men, whether rich or poor--is better than the first.
11 Don't be afraid, my daughter. I will do whatever you say. The whole town knows that you are a woman who has strength of character.
12 It is true that I am a close relative of yours, but there is a relative closer than I.
