Wherefore she went
forth out of the
place where she was, and her
two daughters in
law with her; and they
went on the
way to
return unto the
land of
Judah.

And
Naomi said unto her
two daughters in
law, Go,
return each to her
mother's house: the
LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have
dealt with the
dead, and with me.

The
LORD grant you that ye may
find rest, each of you in the
house of her
husband. Then she
kissed them; and they lifted
up their
voice, and
wept.

And they
said unto her, Surely we will
return with thee unto thy
people.

And
Naomi said, Turn
again, my
daughters: why will ye
go with me? are there yet any more
sons in my
womb, that they may be your
husbands?

Turn
again, my
daughters, go your way; for I am too
old to have an
husband. If I should
say, I
have hope, if I should have an
husband also to
night, and should also
bear sons;

Would ye
tarry for
them till they were
grown? would ye
stay for
them from having
husbands? nay, my
daughters; for it
grieveth me
much for your sakes that the
hand of the
LORD is gone
out against me.

And they lifted

again: and
Orpah kissed her mother in

And
Ruth said,
Intreat me not to
leave thee, or to
return from following
after thee: for whither thou
goest, I will
go; and where thou
lodgest, I will
lodge: thy
people shall be my
people, and thy
God my
God:

Where thou
diest, will I
die, and there will I be

LORD do so to me, and
more also, if ought but
death part thee and me.
