When Ruth came to her mother-in-law, Naomi asked, “How did it go, my daughter?”
Then she [Ruth] told her everything Boaz had done for her and added, “He gave me these six measures of barley saying, ‘Don’t go back to your mother-in-law empty handed.'” Then Naomi said, “Wait, my daughter, until you find out what happens. For the man will not rest until the matter is settled today.”
-Ruth 3:16-18
