Ruth 1:1-5
1And it came to pass in the daysH3117 when the judgesH8199 judgedH8199, that there wasH1961 a famineH7458 in the landH776. And a certain manH376 of Beth-lehem-judah went to sojourn in the country of MoabH4124, he, and his wifeH802, and his twoH8147 sonsH1121. 2And the nameH8034 of the manH376 was ElimelechH458, and the nameH8034 of his wifeH802 NaomiH5281, and the nameH8034 of his twoH8147 sonsH1121 MahlonH4248 and Chilion, Ephrathites of Beth-lehem-judah. And they cameH935 into the countryH7704 of MoabH4124, and continued there. 3And ElimelechH458, Naomi’s husbandH376, diedH4191; and she was leftH7604, and her twoH8147 sonsH1121. 4And they tookH5375 them wivesH802 of the womenH802 of Moab; the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was OrpahH6204, and the nameH8034 of the other RuthH7327: and they dweltH3427 there about tenH6235 yearsH8141. 5And MahlonH4248 and Chilion diedH4191 both of them; and the womanH802 was leftH7604 of her twoH8147 childrenH3206 and of her husbandH376.
