Ruth 1:14-17

14And they liftedH5375 up their voicesH6963 and weptH1058 againH5750; and OrpahH6204 kissedH5401 her mother-in-lawH2545, but RuthH7327 clungH1692 to her.

15Then she saidH559, “BeholdH2009, your sister-in-lawH2994 has goneH7725 backH7725 to her peopleH5971 and her 1godsH430; returnH7725 afterH310 your sister-in-lawH2994.” 16But RuthH7327 saidH559, “Do not urgeH6293 me to leaveH5800 you or turnH7725 backH7725 from followingH310 you; for whereH413H834 you goH1980, I will goH1980, and whereH834 you lodgeH3885, I will lodgeH3885. Your peopleH5971 shall be my peopleH5971, and your GodH430, my GodH430. 17WhereH834 you dieH4191, I will dieH4191, and thereH8033 I will be buriedH6912. ThusH3541 may 2the LordH3068 doH6213 to me, and worseH3541H3254, ifH3588 anything but deathH4194 partsH6504 you and me.”
