Now it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS in the days H3117 B-CMP when the judges H8199 ruled H8199 , that there was H1961 W-VQY3MS a famine H7458 NMS in the land H776 B-NFS . And a certain man H376 NMS of Bethlehem H1035 - judah went H1980 W-VQY3MS to sojourn H1481 L-VQFC in the country H7704 of Moab H4124 , he H1931 PPRO-3MS , and his wife H802 W-CFS-3MS , and his two H8147 sons H1121 .
And the name H8034 W-CMS of the man H376 D-NMS [ was ] Elimelech H458 , and the name H8034 W-CMS of his wife H802 CFS-3MS Naomi H5281 , and the name H8034 W-CMS of his two H8147 sons H1121 CMP-3MS Mahlon H4248 and Chilion H3630 , Ephrathites H673 of Bethlehem H1035 - judah . And they came H935 W-VQY3MP into the country H7704 of Moab H4124 , and continued H1961 W-VQY3MP there H8033 ADV .
And they took H5375 W-VQY3MP them wives H802 GFP of the women of Moab H4125 ; the name H8034 CMS of the one H259 D-ONUM [ was ] Orpah H6204 , and the name H8034 W-CMS of the other H8145 D-ONUM Ruth H7327 : and they dwelled H3427 W-VQY3MP there H8033 ADV about ten H6235 years H8141 .
And Mahlon H4248 and Chilion H3630 died H4191 W-VQY3MP also H1571 CONJ both H8147 ONUM-3MP of them ; and the woman H802 D-NFS was left H7604 of her two sons H8147 and her husband H376 .
Then she H1931 PPRO-3FS arose H6965 with her daughters H3618 - in - law , that she might return H7725 W-VQY3FS from the country H7704 of Moab H4124 : for H3588 CONJ she had heard H8085 VQQ3FS in the country H7704 of Moab H4124 how that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS had visited H6485 VQQ3MS his people H5971 in giving H5414 L-VQFC them bread H3899 NMS .
Wherefore she went forth H3318 out of H4480 PREP the place H4725 D-NMS where H834 RPRO she was H1961 VQQ3FS , and her two H8147 daughters H3618 - in - law with her H5973 PREP-3FS ; and they went H1980 on the way H1870 to return H7725 unto H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of Judah H3063 .
And Naomi H5281 said H559 W-VQY3FS unto her two H8147 daughters H3618 - in - law , Go H1980 , return H7725 each H802 NFS to her mother H517 \'s house H1004 : the LORD H3068 EDS deal H6213 kindly H2617 NMS with H5973 PREP-3MP you , as H834 K-RPRO ye have dealt H6213 with H5973 PREP the dead H4191 , and with H5973 me .
The LORD H3068 EDS grant H5414 VHFA you that ye may find H4672 rest H4496 , each H802 NFS [ of ] [ you ] in the house H1004 CMS of her husband H376 . Then she kissed H5401 W-VQQ3FS them ; and they lifted up H5375 their voice H6963 , and wept H1058 .
And Naomi H5281 said H559 W-VQY3FS , Turn again H7725 , my daughters H1323 : why H4100 L-IPRO will ye go H1980 with H5973 me ? [ are ] there yet H5750 [ any ] [ more ] sons H1121 NMP in my womb H4578 , that they may be H1961 W-VQQ3MS your husbands H376 ?
Turn again H7725 , my daughters H1323 , go H1980 [ your ] [ way ] ; for H3588 CONJ I am too old H2204 to have a husband H376 L-NMS . If H3588 CONJ I should say H559 VQQ1MS , I have H3426 ADV hope H8615 , [ if ] I should have H1961 a husband H376 L-NMS also H1571 CONJ tonight H3915 D-AMS , and should also H1571 W-CONJ bear H3205 sons H1121 ;
Would ye tarry H7663 for them H2004 till H5704 PREP they were grown H1431 ? would ye stay H5702 for them H2004 from having H1961 VQFC husbands H376 L-NMS ? nay H408 NPAR , my daughters H1323 ; for H3588 CONJ it grieveth H4843 me much H3966 ADV for H4480 M-PPRO-2MS your sakes that H3588 CONJ the hand H3027 CFS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS is gone out H3318 VQQ3FS against me .
And they lifted up H5375 their voice H6963 , and wept H1058 again H5750 ADV : and Orpah H6204 kissed H5401 W-VQQ3FS her mother H2545 - in - law ; but Ruth H7327 cleaved H1692 VQQ3FS unto her .
And she said H559 W-VQY3FS , Behold H2009 IJEC , thy sister H2994 - in - law is gone back H7725 unto H413 PREP her people H5971 , and unto H413 PREP her gods H430 : return H7725 thou after H310 PREP thy sister H2994 - in - law .
And Ruth H7327 said H559 W-VQY3FS , Entreat H6293 me not H408 NPAR to leave H5800 thee , [ or ] to return H7725 from following after H310 thee : for H3588 CONJ whither H834 RPRO thou goest H1980 , I will go H1980 VQY1MS ; and where H834 RPRO thou lodgest H3885 , I will lodge H3885 : thy people H5971 [ shall ] [ be ] my people H5971 , and thy God H430 my God H430 CMP-1MS :
Where H834 B-RPRO thou diest H4191 , will I die H4191 VQY1MS , and there H8033 W-ADV will I be buried H6912 : the LORD H3068 EDS do H6213 VQY3MS so H3541 to me , and more H3254 VHY3MS also H3541 , [ if ] [ aught ] but H3588 CONJ death H4194 D-NMS part H6504 thee H996 W-PREP-1MS and me H996 .
When she saw H7200 W-VQQ3FS that H3588 CONJ she H1931 PPRO-3FS was steadfastly minded H553 to go H1980 L-VQFC with H854 her , then she left H2308 speaking H1696 unto H413 her .
So they two H8147 went H1980 until H5704 PREP they came H935 to Bethlehem H1035 . And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when they were come H935 to Bethlehem H1035 , that all H3605 NMS the city H5892 D-GFS was moved H1949 about H5921 them , and they said H559 , [ Is ] this H2063 D-PFS Naomi H5281 ?
And she said H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 them , Call H7121 me not H408 NPAR Naomi H5281 , call H7121 me Mara H4755 : for H3588 CONJ the Almighty H7706 EDS hath dealt very bitterly H4843 VHQ3MS with me .
I H589 PPRO-1MS went out H1980 VQQ1MS full H4392 , and the LORD H3068 EDS hath brought me home again H7725 empty H7387 : why H4100 L-IPRO [ then ] call H7121 ye me Naomi H5281 , seeing the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS hath testified H6030 against me , and the Almighty H7706 W-EDS hath afflicted H7489 me ?
So Naomi H5281 returned H7725 W-VQY3FS , and Ruth H7327 the Moabitess H4125 , her daughter H3618 - in - law , with her H5973 PREP-3FS , which returned H7725 out of the country H7704 of Moab H4124 : and they H1992 came H935 VQQ3MP to Bethlehem H1035 in the beginning H8462 of barley H8184 harvest H7105 .
