Ruth 3:11-13
Easy-to-Read Version
11 Now, young woman, don’t be afraid. I will do what you ask. All the people in our town know that you are a very good woman. 12 And it is true that I am a close relative. But there is a man who is a closer relative to you than I am. 13 Stay here tonight. In the morning we will see if he will help[a] you. If he decides to help you, that is fine. If he refuses to help, I promise, as surely as the Lord lives, I will marry you and buy back Elimelech’s land for you.[b] So lie here until morning.”

Ruth 3:11-13
New International Version
11 And now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do for you all you ask. All the people of my town know that you are a woman of noble character.(A) 12 Although it is true that I am a guardian-redeemer of our family,(B) there is another who is more closely related than(C) I. 13 Stay here for the night, and in the morning if he wants to do his duty as your guardian-redeemer,(D) good; let him redeem you. But if he is not willing, as surely as the Lord lives(E) I will do it.(F) Lie here until morning.”
