Ruth 1:7-17

7And sheH834 wentH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of the placeH4725 whereH834 sheH834 was, and herH413 twoH8147 daughters in law with herH413; and they wentH3318 on the wayH1870 to returnH7725 unto the landH776 of JudahH3063.

8And NaomiH5281 saidH559 unto herH802 twoH8147 daughters in law, GoH7725, returnH7725 eachH802 of youH834 to herH802 mother’sH517 houseH1004: the LORDH3068 dealH6213 kindly with youH834 as ye have dealt with the deadH4191, and with meH7725.

9The LORDH3068 grantH5414 youH5414 that ye may findH4672 restH4496, eachH376 of youH5414 in the houseH1004 of herH802 husbandH376. Then she kissedH5401 them; and they liftedH5375 upH5375 their voiceH6963, and weptH1058.

10And they saidH559 unto herH7725, Nay, but weH3588 will returnH7725 with thee unto thy peopleH5971.

11And NaomiH5281 saidH559, TurnH7725 againH5750, my daughtersH1323: whyH4100 will ye goH7725 with meH7725? have I yet sonsH1121 in my wombH4578, that they may be your husbandsH376?

12TurnH7725 againH7725, my daughtersH1323, goH7725 your way; for I am tooH1571 oldH1121 to have an husbandH376. IfH3588 I should sayH559, I have hopeH8615, ifH3588 I should evenH1571 have an husbandH376 to-night, and should also bearH3205 sonsH1121;

13would ye therefore tarry tillH5704 they were grownH1431? would ye therefore stay from havingH1961 husbandsH376? nay, my daughtersH1323; for it grieveth meH4480 muchH3027 for your sakes, for the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 is goneH3318 forthH3318 againstH4480 meH4480.

14And they liftedH5375 upH5375 their voiceH6963, and weptH1058 againH5750: and OrpahH6204 kissedH5401 herH5375 mother in law; but RuthH7327 clave unto herH5375.

15And sheH310 saidH559, BeholdH2009, thy sister in law is goneH7725 backH7725 unto herH413 peopleH5971, and unto herH413 godH430: returnH7725 thou afterH310 thy sister in law.

16And RuthH7327 saidH559, EntreatH6293 meH413 notH408 to leaveH5800 thee, and to returnH7725 from followingH310 afterH310 thee: for whither thou goest, I will goH7725; and whereH834 thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy peopleH5971 shall be my peopleH5971, and thy GodH430 my GodH430:

17whereH834 thou diest, will I dieH4191, and there will I be buriedH6912: the LORDH3068 doH6213 soH6213 to meH3254, and moreH3254 also, ifH3588 aught but deathH4191 part thee and meH3254.
