Rut 01:01 ¶ Now it came to pass in the days <03117> when the
judges <08199> (8802) ruled <08199> (8800), that there was a
famine <07458> in the land <0776>. And a certain man <0376> of
Bethlehemjudah <01035> <03063> went <03212> (8799) to sojourn
<01481> (8800) in the country <07704> of Moab <04124>, he, and
his wife <0802>, and his two <08147> sons <01121>.
Rut 01:02 And the name <08034> of the man <0376> was Elimelech
<0458>, and the name <08034> of his wife <0802> Naomi <05281>,
and the name <08034> of his two <08147> sons <01121> Mahlon
<04248> and Chilion <03630>, Ephrathites <0673> of
Bethlehemjudah <01035> <03063>. And they came <0935> (8799) into
the country <07704> of Moab <04124>, and continued there.
Rut 01:03 And Elimelech <0458> Naomi’s <05281> husband <0376>
died <04191> (8799); and she was left <07604> (8735), and her
two <08147> sons <01121>.
Rut 01:04 And they took <05375> (8799) them wives <0802> of the
women <0802> of Moab <04125>; the name <08034> of the one <0259>
was Orpah <06204>, and the name <08034> of the other <08145>
Ruth <07327>: and they dwelled <03427> (8799) there about ten
<06235> years <08141>.
Rut 01:05 And Mahlon <04248> and Chilion <03630> died <04191>
(8799) also both <08147> of them; and the woman <0802> was left
<07604> (8735) of her two <08147> sons <03206> and her husband
<0376>.
Rut 01:06 ¶ Then she arose <06965> (8799) with her daughters in
law <03618>, that she might return <07725> (8799) from the
country <07704> of Moab <04124>: for she had heard <08085>
(8804) in the country <07704> of Moab <04124> how that the LORD
<03068> had visited <06485> (8804) his people <05971> in giving
<05414> (8800) them bread <03899>.
Rut 01:07 Wherefore she went forth <03318> (8799) out of the
place <04725> where she was, and her two <08147> daughters in
law <03618> with her; and they went <03212> (8799) on the way
<01870> to return <07725> (8800) unto the land <0776> of Judah
<03063>.
Rut 01:08 And Naomi <05281> said <0559> (8799) unto her two
<08147> daughters in law <03618>, Go <03212> (8798), return
<07725> (8798) each <0802> to her mother’s <0517> house <01004>:
the LORD <03068> deal <06213> (8799) kindly <02617> with you, as
ye have dealt <06213> (8804) with the dead <04191> (8801), and
with me.
Rut 01:09 The LORD <03068> grant <05414> (8799) you that ye may
find <04672> (8798) rest <04496>, each <0802> of you in the
house <01004> of her husband <0376>. Then she kissed <05401>
(8799) them; and they lifted up <05375> (8799) their voice
<06963>, and wept <01058> (8799).
Rut 01:10 And they said <0559> (8799) unto her, Surely we will
return <07725> (8799) with thee unto thy people <05971>.
Rut 01:11 And Naomi <05281> said <0559> (8799), Turn again
<07725> (8798), my daughters <01323>: why will ye go <03212>
(8799) with me? are there yet any more sons <01121> in my womb
<04578>, that they may be your husbands <0582>?
Rut 01:12 Turn again <07725> (8798), my daughters <01323>, go
<03212> (8798) your way; for I am too old <02204> (8804) to have
an husband <0376>. If I should say <0559> (8804), I have <03426>
hope <08615>, if I should have an husband <0376> also to night
<03915>, and should also bear <03205> (8804) sons <01121>;
Rut 01:13 Would ye tarry <07663> (8762) for them <03860> till
they were grown <01431> (8799)? would ye stay <05702> (8735) for
them <03860> from having husbands <0376>? nay, my daughters
<01323>; for it grieveth <04843> (8804) me much <03966> for your
sakes that the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> is gone out
<03318> (8804) against me.
Rut 01:14 And they lifted up <05375> (8799) their voice <06963>,
and wept again <01058> (8799): and Orpah <06204> kissed <05401>
(8799) her mother in law <02545>; but Ruth <07327> clave <01692>
(8804) unto her.
Rut 01:15 And she said <0559> (8799), Behold, thy sister in law
<02994> is gone back <07725> (8804) unto her people <05971>, and
unto her gods <0430>: return <07725> (8798) thou after <0310>
thy sister in law <02994>.
Rut 01:16 And Ruth <07327> said <0559> (8799), Intreat <06293>
(8799) me not to leave <05800> (8800) thee, or to return <07725>
(8800) from following after <0310> thee: for whither thou goest
<03212> (8799), I will go <03212> (8799); and where thou lodgest
<03885> (8799), I will lodge <03885> (8799): thy people <05971>
shall be my people <05971>, and thy God <0430> my God <0430>:
Rut 01:17 Where thou diest <04191> (8799), will I die <04191>
(8799), and there will I be buried <06912> (8735): the LORD
<03068> do <06213> (8799) so to me, and more <03254> (8686) also,
if ought but death <04194> part <06504> (8686) thee and me.
Rut 01:18 When she saw <07200> (8799) that she was stedfastly
minded <0553> (8693) to go <03212> (8800) with her, then she
left <02308> (8799) speaking <01696> (8763) unto her.
Rut 01:19 ¶ So they two <08147> went <03212> (8799) until they
came <0935> (8800) to Bethlehem <01035>. And it came to pass,
when they were come <0935> (8800) to Bethlehem <01035>, that all
the city <05892> was moved <01949> (8735) about them, and they
said <0559> (8799), Is this Naomi <05281>?
Rut 01:20 And she said <0559> (8799) unto them, Call <07121>
(8799) me not Naomi <05281>, call <07121> (8798) me Mara <04755>:
for the Almighty <07706> hath dealt very <03966> bitterly
<04843> (8689) with me.
Rut 01:21 I went out <01980> (8804) full <04392>, and the LORD
<03068> hath brought me home again <07725> (8689) empty <07387>:
why then call <07121> (8799) ye me Naomi <05281>, seeing the
LORD <03068> hath testified <06030> (8804) against me, and the
Almighty <07706> hath afflicted <07489> (8689) me?
Rut 01:22 So Naomi <05281> returned <07725> (8799), and Ruth
<07327> the Moabitess <04125>, her daughter in law <03618>, with
her, which returned <07725> (8804) out of the country <07704> of
Moab <04124>: and they came <0935> (8804) to Bethlehem <01035>
in the beginning <08462> of barley <08184> harvest <07105>.
Rut 02:01 ¶ And Naomi <05281> had a kinsman <04129> (8675)
<03045> (8794) of her husband’s <0376>, a mighty <01368> man
<0376> of wealth <02428>, of the family <04940> of Elimelech
<0458>; and his name <08034> was Boaz <01162>.
Rut 02:02 And Ruth <07327> the Moabitess <04125> said <0559>
(8799) unto Naomi <05281>, Let me now go <03212> (8799) to the
field <07704>, and glean <03950> (8762) ears of corn <07641>
after <0310> him in whose sight <05869> I shall find <04672>
(8799) grace <02580>. And she said <0559> (8799) unto her, Go
<03212> (8798), my daughter <01323>.
Rut 02:03 And she went <03212> (8799), and came <0935> (8799),
and gleaned <03950> (8762) in the field <07704> after <0310> the
reapers <07114> (8802): and her hap <04745> was to light <07136>
(8799) on a part <02513> of the field <07704> belonging unto
Boaz <01162>, who was of the kindred <04940> of Elimelech <0458>.
Rut 02:04 ¶ And, behold, Boaz <01162> came <0935> (8802) from
Bethlehem <01035>, and said <0559> (8799) unto the reapers
<07114> (8802), The LORD <03068> be with you. And they answered
<0559> (8799) him, The LORD <03068> bless <01288> (8762) thee.
Rut 02:05 Then said <0559> (8799) Boaz <01162> unto his servant
<05288> that was set <05324> (8737) over the reapers <07114>
(8802), Whose damsel <05291> is this?
Rut 02:06 And the servant <05288> that was set <05324> (8737)
