8 And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, Go, return each to her mothers house. Jehovah deal kindly with you, as you have dealt with the dead and with me.
9 Jehovah grant that you may find rest, each in the house of her husband. And she kissed them, and they lifted up their voices and wept.
10 And they said to her, Surely we will return with you to your people.
11 And Naomi said, Turn back, my daughters; why will you go with me? Are there yet sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
12 Turn back, my daughters, go; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say I have hope, if I should have a husband tonight and should also bear sons,
13 would you wait for them till they were grown? Would you restrain yourselves from having husbands? No, my daughters; for it grieves me very much for your sakes that the hand of Jehovah has gone out against me!
14 And they lifted up their voices and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth clung to her.
