Ruth 3:1-5

Common English Bible CEB

1 Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, "My daughter, shouldn't I seek security for you, so that things might go well for you?

2 Now isn't Boaz, whose young women you were with, our relative? Tonight he will be winnowing barley at the threshing floor.

3 You should bathe, put on some perfume, wear nice clothes, and then go down to the threshing floor. Don't make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.

4 When he lies down, notice the place where he is lying. Then go, uncover his feet, and lie down. And he will tell you what to do."

5 Ruth replied to her, "I'll do everything you are telling me."
