Rth 2:22
Naomi declared herself fully satisfied with this, because Ruth would be thereby secured from insults, which she might receive when gleaning in strange fields. “That they meet thee not,” lit. “that they do not fall upon thee.” בּ פּגע signifies to fall upon a person, to smite and ill-treat him.
