Ruth 1:10-13 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. And they said to her, “No, we shall go back with you to your people.”

11. But Na‛omi said, “Go back, my daughters, why go with me? Have I still sons in my womb, that they should become your husbands?

12. “Go back, my daughters, go your way, for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say I have expectancy, even if I should have a husband tonight and should also bear sons,

13. would you wait for them till they were grown? Would you shut yourselves up, not to have a husband? No, my daughters, for it is much more bitter for me than for you, because the hand of יהוה has gone out against me!”
