Ruth 3:9

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

3:9
He said, “Who are you?”
“Who are you?” he asked. “I am your servant Ruth,” she replied. “Spread the corner of your garment (note: Or Spread your wing; the word for wing can also mean corner of a garment; see Ruth 2:12.) over me, for you are a kinsman-redeemer (note: The Hebrew word for kinsman-redeemer or guardian-redeemer is a legal term for the kinsman who redeems or vindicates a relative; similarly in verses 12 and 13; see Leviticus 25:25–55.).”
