Ruth 1:10-15

10However, they saidH559 to her, “No, but we will returnH7725 with you to your peopleH5971.” 11But NaomiH5281 saidH559, “ReturnH7725, my daughtersH1323. WhyH4100 should you goH1980 with me? Do I stillH5750 have sonsH1121 in my wombH4578, that 1they may be your husbandsH376? 12ReturnH7725, my daughtersH1323! GoH1980, for I amH2204 tooH4480 oldH2204 to haveH1961 a husbandH376. IfH3588 I saidH559 I haveH3426 hopeH8615, if I were evenH1571 to haveH1961 a husbandH376 tonightH3915 and alsoH1571 giveH3205 birthH3205 to sonsH1121, 13would you thereforeH3860 waitH7663 untilH5704H834 they were grownH1431? Would you thereforeH3860 refrainH5702 from marryingH1115H1961H376? NoH408, my daughtersH1323; for it isH4843 muchH3966 moreH4480 bitterH4843 for me thanH4480 for you, becauseH3588 2the handH3027 of the LordH3068 has comeH3318 outH3318 against me.” 14And they raisedH5375 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 3godsH430; returnH7725 afterH310 your sister-in-lawH2994.”
