Kad bijaše vrijeme ručku, Boaz joj reče: "Hodi ovamo, jedi ovog kruha i umoči svoj zalogaj u ocat!" Ona sjede pokraj žetelaca, a on stavi pred nju prženih zrna. Jela je i nasitila se i još joj preteče.
And Boaz said unto her, At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers: and he reached her parched corn, and she did eat, and was sufficed, and left.
