Ruth 2:10-13
10 At this, she bowed down with her face to the ground. She exclaimed, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you notice me—a foreigner?â€
11 Boaz replied, “I’ve been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband—how you left your father and mother and your homeland and came to live with a people you did not know before. 12 May the LORD repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.â€
13 “May I continue to find favor in your eyes, my lord,†she said. “You have given me comfort and have spoken kindly to your servant—though I do not have the standing of one of your servant girls.â€
