RF RUT 1:1 Naomi Goes to Moab.
It was in the time when the Judges ruled, that there came a famine in the land, and a man of Bethlehem-Judah went to stay in the plains of Moab, with his wife and two sons.
RF RUT 1:2 The man's name was Elimelekh, and his wife's name Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Khilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem-Judah. These went to the plain of Moab and remained there.
RF RUT 1:3 Elimelekh, the husband of Naomi died, however, and left her with her two sons,
RF RUT 1:4 who took Moabitesses as wives for themselves; the name of one was Orpah, and of the other Ruth, and they resided there ten years.
RF RUT 1:5 Both of them then died,—Mahlon and Khilion,—so the woman was deprived of her two sons and her husband.
RF RUT 1:6 She consequently arose with her daughters-in-law, and left the plain of Moab, for she had heard, in the plain of Moab, that the EVER-LIVING had visited His people, and given them bread.
RF RUT 1:7 So she went out of the village where she had stayed, and her two daughters-in-law with her, and proceeded on her journey to return to the land of Judah.
RF RUT 1:8 Naomi, however, said to her two daughters-in-law,
"Go! Return each of you to her mother's home. May the EVER-LIVING show you the kindness that you showed to the dead, and to me!
RF RUT 1:9 May the EVER-LIVING grant you to find happiness, each in the home of her Husband." Then she kissed them, and lifted up her voice and wept.
RF RUT 1:10 But they replied to her, "Why should we not go back with you to your own people?"
RF RUT 1:11 Naomi, however, answered, "Turn back, my girls!—Why should you go with me? Are there any sons in my breast, who could become husbands to you?
RF RUT 1:12 Go back, my girls, therefore, for I am too old to have a husband. Even if I should say I hope for one,—if I should have a husband to-night, and sons should be born to me,
RF RUT 1:13 would you separate yourselves until they were grown up? Would you remain without having a man?—No! my girls. Altho' it is more bitter for me than for you;—for the hand of the LORD has come upon me!"
RF RUT 1:14 Then they lifted up their voices and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law,—but Ruth clung to her!
RF RUT 1:15 But she said, "Look! return with your sister-in-law to her people, and her GOD,—turn back after your sister-in-law."
RF RUT 1:16 Ruth, however, answered, "Do not entreat me to leave you, or to turn back from you. For wherever you go, I will go; and where you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your GOD my GOD!
RF RUT 1:17 Wherever you die I will die; and there I will be buried!—The EVER-LIVING do this to me, and more than this,—if anything but death shall part between me and you!"
RF RUT 1:18 When she saw that she was decided to go with her, she ceased to persuade her, and both of them went to travel to Bethlehem;
RF RUT 1:19 and when they arrived at Bethlehem, the village was excited about them, and they asked, "Is not this Naomi?"
RF RUT 1:20 But she replied, "Call me not Naomi (Pleasantness), for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me!
RF RUT 1:21 I went away full, and the EVER-LIVING has returned me empty!—Why should you call me Pleasantness when the LORD has spoken against me, and the ALMIGHTY wronged me?
RF RUT 1:22 So Naomi returned and her daughter-in-law Ruth, the Moabitess with her, when she came back from the plain of Moab, and came to Bethlehem, at the beginning of the barley harvest.
