LXX Concordance for θύγατερ

Ruth the Moabitess asked Naomi, “Will you let me go into the fields and gather fallen grain behind someone with whom I find favor? ”

Naomi answered her, “Go ahead, my daughter.”

Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter.[fn] Don't go and gather grain in another field, and don't leave this one, but stay here close to my female servants.

So Naomi said to her daughter-in-law Ruth, “My daughter, it is good for you to work[fn] with his female servants, so that nothing will happen to you in another field.”

Ruth's mother-in-law Naomi said to her, “My daughter, shouldn't I find rest for you, so that you will be taken care of?

Then he said, “May the LORD bless you, my daughter. You have shown more kindness now than before,[fn] because you have not pursued younger men, whether rich or poor.

She went to her mother-in-law, Naomi, who asked her, “What happened,[fn] my daughter? ”

Then Ruth told her everything the man had done for her.

Naomi said, “My daughter, wait until you find out how things go, for he won't rest unless he resolves this today.”
