Ruth 2:2

One day Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, ”Let me go out into the harvest field. Perhaps someone will be kind enough (give me grace) and let me pick ears of grain.” [According to Moses’ teaching, landowners were to let the poor, widows and fatherless share in the surplus of the harvest, see Lev. 19:9; 23:22; Deut. 24:19–22.]
She said, ”Go, my daughter.”
