Ruth 1:6-13

6And she aroseH6965, she and her daughters-in-law, and returnedH7725 from the fieldsH7704 of MoabH4124; for she had heardH8085 in the fieldsH7704 of MoabH4124 how that Jehovah had visitedH6485 his peopleH5971 to giveH5414 them breadH3899.

7Wherefore she wentH3318 forthH3318 out of the placeH4725 whereH834 she had beenH1961, and her twoH8147 daughters-in-law with her; and they wentH3318 on the wayH1870 to returnH7725 to the landH776 of JudahH3063.

8And NaomiH5281 saidH559 to her twoH8147 daughters-in-law, GoH7725, returnH7725 each to her mother's houseH1004. Jehovah deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the deadH4191 and with me.

9Jehovah grant you that ye may findH4672 restH4496, each in the houseH1004 of her husbandH376. And she kissedH5401 them; and they liftedH5375 up their voiceH6963 and weptH1058.

10And they saidH559 to her, We will certainly returnH7725 with thee to thy peopleH5971.

11And NaomiH5281 saidH559, ReturnH7725, my daughtersH1323: whyH4100 will ye goH7725 with me? Are there yetH5750 sonsH1121 in my womb, that they could beH1961 your husbandsH376?

12ReturnH7725, my daughtersH1323, goH7725; for I amH1961 too old to have a husbandH376. If I should sayH559, I have hopeH8615, should I even have a husbandH376 to-night, and should I alsoH1571 bearH3205 sonsH1121,

13would ye wait on that account till they were grownH1431? Would ye stay on that account from having husbandsH376? No, my daughtersH1323, for I amH1961 in much moreH4480 bitterness than you; for the handH3027 of Jehovah is goneH3318 out against me.
