Ruth 1:11-13

« Judges 21Ruth 1Ruth 2 »

11 But Naomi said, “Return, my daughters. Why should you go with me? Have I yet sons in my womb, that ^athey may be your husbands? 12 Return, my daughters! Go, for I am too old to have a husband. If I said I have hope, if I should even have a husband tonight and also bear sons, 13 would you therefore wait until they were grown? Would you therefore refrain from marrying? No, my daughters; for it is more bitter for me than for you, for ^athe hand of Yahweh has gone forth against me.”
