| 1 |
In the days when the judges ruled there was a famine in the land, and a man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons.
|
| 2 |
The name of the man was Elimelech and the name of his wife Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in Judah. They went into the country of Moab and remained there.
|
| 3 |
But Elimelech, the husband of Naomi, died, and she was left with her two sons.
|
| 4 |
These took Moabite wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the name of the other Ruth. They lived there about ten years,
|
| 5 |
and both Mahlon and Chilion died, so that the woman was left without her two sons and her husband.
|
| 6 |
Then she arose with her daughters-in-law to return from the country of Moab, for she had heard in the fields of Moab that the LORD had visited his people and given them food.
|
| 7 |
So she set out from the place where she was with her two daughters-in-law, and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.
|
| 8 |
But Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go, return each of you to her mother's house. May the LORD deal kindly with you, as you have dealt with the dead and with me.
|
| 9 |
The LORD grant that you may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband!“ Then she kissed them, and they lifted up their voices and wept.
|
| 10 |
And they said to her, “No, we will return with you to your people.”
|
| 11 |
But Naomi said, “Turn back, my daughters; why will you go with me? Have I yet sons in my womb that they may become your husbands?
|
| 12 |
Turn back, my daughters; go your way, for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say I have hope, even if I should have a husband this night and should bear sons,
|
| 13 |
would you therefore wait till they were grown? Would you therefore refrain from marrying? No, my daughters, for it is exceedingly bitter to me for your sake that the hand of the LORD has gone out against me.“
|
| 14 |
Then they lifted up their voices and wept again. And Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth clung to her.
|
| 15 |
And she said, “See, your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and to her gods; return after your sister-in-law.”
|
| 16 |
But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God.
|
| 17 |
Where you die I will die, and there will I be buried. May the LORD do so to me and more also if anything but death parts me from you.“
|
| 18 |
And when Naomi saw that she was determined to go with her, she said no more.
|
| 19 |
So the two of them went on until they came to Bethlehem. And when they came to Bethlehem, the whole town was stirred because of them. And the women said, “Is this Naomi?”
|
| 20 |
She said to them, “Do not call me Naomi; call me Mara, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.
|
| 21 |
I went away full, and the LORD has brought me back empty. Why call me Naomi, when the LORD has testified against me and the Almighty has brought calamity upon me?“
|
| 22 |
So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabite her daughter-in-law with her, who returned from the country of Moab. And they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of barley harvest.
|
| 1 |
In the days when the judges ruled, there was a famine in the land, and a man from Bethlehem in Judah, together with his wife and two sons, went to live for a while in the country of Moab.
|
| 2 |
The man's name was Elimelech, his wife's name Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Kilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem, Judah. And they went to Moab and lived there.
|
| 3 |
Now Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died, and she was left with her two sons.
|
| 4 |
They married Moabite women, one named Orpah and the other Ruth. After they had lived there about ten years,
|
| 5 |
both Mahlon and Kilion also died, and Naomi was left without her two sons and her husband.
|
| 6 |
When she heard in Moab that the LORD had come to the aid of his people by providing food for them, Naomi and her daughters-in-law prepared to return home from there.
|
| 7 |
With her two daughters-in-law she left the place where she had been living and set out on the road that would take them back to the land of Judah.
|
| 8 |
Then Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go back, each of you, to your mother's home. May the LORD show kindness to you, as you have shown to your dead and to me.
|
| 9 |
May the LORD grant that each of you will find rest in the home of another husband.“ Then she kissed them and they wept aloud
|
| 10 |
and said to her, “We will go back with you to your people.”
|
| 11 |
But Naomi said, “Return home, my daughters. Why would you come with me? Am I going to have any more sons, who could become your husbands?
|
| 12 |
Return home, my daughters; I am too old to have another husband. Even if I thought there was still hope for me-even if I had a husband tonight and then gave birth to sons-
|
| 13 |
would you wait until they grew up? Would you remain unmarried for them? No, my daughters. It is more bitter for me than for you, because the LORD's hand has gone out against me!“
|
| 14 |
At this they wept again. Then Orpah kissed her mother-in-law good-by, but Ruth clung to her.
|
| 15 |
“Look,” said Naomi, “your sister-in-law is going back to her people and her gods. Go back with her.”
|
| 16 |
But Ruth replied, “Don't urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.
|
| 17 |
Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me.“
|
| 18 |
When Naomi realized that Ruth was determined to go with her, she stopped urging her.
|
| 19 |
So the two women went on until they came to Bethlehem. When they arrived in Bethlehem, the whole town was stirred because of them, and the women exclaimed, “Can this be Naomi?”
|
| 20 |
“Don't call me Naomi, “she told them. “Call me Mara, because the Almighty has made my life very bitter.
|
| 21 |
I went away full, but the LORD has brought me back empty. Why call me Naomi? The LORD has afflicted me; the Almighty has brought misfortune upon me.“
|
| 22 |
So Naomi returned from Moab accompanied by Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, arriving in Bethlehem as the barley harvest was beginning.
|
| 1 |
In the days when the judges ruled in Israel, a severe famine came upon the land. So a man from Bethlehem in Judah left his home and went to live in the country of Moab, taking his wife and two sons with him.
|
| 2 |
The man's name was Elimelech, and his wife was Naomi. Their two sons were Mahlon and Kilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in the land of Judah. And when they reached Moab, they settled there.
|
| 3 |
Then Elimelech died, and Naomi was left with her two sons.
|
| 4 |
The two sons married Moabite women. One married a woman named Orpah, and the other a woman named Ruth. But about ten years later,
|
| 5 |
both Mahlon and Kilion died. This left Naomi alone, without her two sons or her husband.
|
| 6 |
Then Naomi heard in Moab that the LORD had blessed his people in Judah by giving them good crops again. So Naomi and her daughters-in-law got ready to leave Moab to return to her homeland.
|
| 7 |
With her two daughters-in-law she set out from the place where she had been living, and they took the road that would lead them back to Judah.
|
| 8 |
But on the way, Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go back to your mothers' homes. And may the LORD reward you for your kindness to your husbands and to me.
|
| 9 |
May the LORD bless you with the security of another marriage.“ Then she kissed them good-bye, and they all broke down and wept.
|
| 10 |
“No,” they said. “We want to go with you to your people.”
|
| 11 |
But Naomi replied, “Why should you go on with me? Can I still give birth to other sons who could grow up to be your husbands?
|
| 12 |
No, my daughters, return to your parents' homes, for I am too old to marry again. And even if it were possible, and I were to get married tonight and bear sons, then what?
|
| 13 |
Would you wait for them to grow up and refuse to marry someone else? No, of course not, my daughters! Things are far more bitter for me than for you, because the LORD himself has raised his fist against me.“
|
| 14 |
And again they wept together, and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law good-bye. But Ruth clung tightly to Naomi.
|
| 15 |
“Look,” Naomi said to her, “your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and to her gods. You should do the same.”
|
| 16 |
But Ruth replied, “Don't ask me to leave you and turn back. Wherever you go, I will go; wherever you live, I will live. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God.
|
| 17 |
Wherever you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD punish me severely if I allow anything but death to separate us!“
|
| 18 |
When Naomi saw that Ruth was determined to go with her, she said nothing more.
|
| 19 |
So the two of them continued on their journey. When they came to Bethlehem, the entire town was excited by their arrival. “Is it really Naomi?” the women asked.
|
| 20 |
“Don't call me Naomi,” she responded. “Instead, call me Mara, for the Almighty has made life very bitter for me.
|
| 21 |
I went away full, but the LORD has brought me home empty. Why call me Naomi when the LORD has caused me to suffer and the Almighty has sent such tragedy upon me?“
|
| 22 |
So Naomi returned from Moab, accompanied by her daughter-in-law Ruth, the young Moabite woman. They arrived in Bethlehem in late spring, at the beginning of the barley harvest.

Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehemjudah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
|
| 2 |
And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehemjudah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.
|
| 3 |
And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.
|
| 4 |
And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years.
|
| 5 |
And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.
|
| 6 |
Then she arose with her daughters in law, that she might return from the country of Moab: for she had heard in the country of Moab how that the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread.
|
| 7 |
Wherefore she went forth out of the place where she was, and her two daughters in law with her; and they went on the way to return unto the land of Judah.
|
| 8 |
And Naomi said unto her two daughters in law, Go, return each to her mother's house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.

|
| 11 |
And Naomi said, Turn again, my daughters: why will ye go with me? are there yet any more sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
|
| 12 |
Turn again, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have an husband. If I should say, I have hope, if I should have an husband also to night, and should also bear sons;
|
| 13 |
Would ye tarry for them till they were grown? would ye stay for them from having husbands? nay, my daughters; for it grieveth me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD is gone out against me.

And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:

Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me.

I went out full, and the LORD hath brought me home again empty: why then call ye me Naomi, seeing the LORD hath testified against me, and the Almighty hath afflicted me?
