    9May the LORD grant that each of you will find rest in the home of another husband." She kissed them goodbye, and they lifted up their voices and wept.

    10They said to her, "We will go back with you to your people."

    11But Naomi replied, "Return home, my daughters. Why would you come with me? Do I still have sons in my womb who could become your husbands?

    12Return home, my daughters. I am too old to have another husband. Even if I thought there was still hope for me—even if I had a husband tonight and then gave birth to sons—

    13would you wait until they grew up? Would you remain unmarried for them? No, my daughters, it is more bitter for me than for you because the LORD’s hand has turned against me."

    14They lifted up their voices and wept again. Orpah kissed her mother-in-law goodbye, but Ruth clung to her.
