Definition :

Chap Ver Latin English Greek
Ruth 2 2 Dixitque Ruth Moabitis ad socrum suam : Si jubes, vadam in agrum, et colligam spicas quae fugerint manus metentium, ubicumque clementis in me patrisfamilias reperero gratiam. Cui illa respondit : Vade, filia mea. And Ruth, the Moabitess, said to her mother in law: If thou wilt, I will go into the field, and glean the ears of corn that escape the hands of the reapers, wheresoever I shall find grace with a householder, that will be favourable to me. And she answered her: Go, my daughter. Καὶ εἶπε Ῥοὺθ ἡ Μωαβίτις πρὸς Νωεμὶν, πορεῦθω δὴ εἰς ἀγρὸν, καὶ συνάξω ἐν τοῖς στάχυσι κατόπισθεν οὗ ἐὰν εὕρω χάριν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ. εἶπε δὲ αὐτῇ, πορεύου, θύγατερ.
Ruth 2 3 Abiit itaque et colligebat spicas post terga metentium. Accidit autem ut ager ille haberet dominum nomine Booz, qui erat de cognatione Elimelech. She went, therefore, and gleaned the ears of corn after the reapers. And it happened that the owner of that field was Booz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech. Καὶ ἐπορεύθη· καὶ ἐλθοῦσα συνέλεξεν ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ κατόπισθε τῶν θεριζόντων· καὶ περιέπεσε περιπτώματι τῇ μερίδι τοῦ ἀγροῦ Βοὸζ, τοῦ ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας Ἐλιμέλεχ.
