Reward for Ruth came quickly with her diligent care of her mother-in-law.

Ruth 2:11. And Boaz answered and said to her, It has fully been told to me all that you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth and have come to a people which you have not known. 12. The LORD* will repay your work and a full Reward will be given you by the LORD* God of Israel, under Whose wings you have come to take refuge.
