And they said, We are witnesses. 23 Now therefore put away, said he, the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD God of Israel. 24 And the people said to Joshua, The LORD our God will we serve, and his voice will we obey. 25 So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and set them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem. 26 And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God, and took a large stone, and set it up there under an oak, that was by the sanctuary of the LORD. 27 And Joshua said to all the people, Behold, this stone shall be a witness to us; for it has heard all the words of the LORD which he spoke to us: it shall therefore be a witness to you, lest you deny your God. 28 So Joshua let the people depart, every man to his own inheritance.

    1Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.

    2And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife was Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem in Judah. And they came into the country of Moab, and remained there.

    3And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died; and she was left with her two sons.

    4And they took wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they lived there about ten years.

    5And Mahlon and Chilion both died; and the woman was left without her two sons and her husband.

    6Then she arose with her daughters-in-law, to return from the country of Moab: for she had heard in the country of Moab how the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread.

    7Therefore she went out from where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.

    9The LORD grant you that you may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voices and wept.

    10And they said to her, Surely we will return with you to your people.

    11And Naomi said, Turn back, my daughters: why will you go with me? Are there still sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?

    12Turn back, my daughters, go your way; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope, if I should have a husband tonight and also bear sons;

    13Would you wait for them till they were grown? Would you restrain yourselves from having husbands? No, my daughters; for it grieves me much for your sakes that the hand of the LORD has gone out against me.

    14And they lifted up their voices and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth held onto her.

    15And she said, Behold, your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and to her gods: return after your sister-in-law.

    16And Ruth said, Do not urge me to leave you, or to turn back from following you: for where you go, I will go; and where you stay, I will stay: your people shall be my people, and your God my God:

    17Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me.

    18When she saw that she was determined to go with her, then she stopped speaking to her.

    19So the two of them went until they came to Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they had come to Bethlehem, that all the city was stirred because of them, and they said, Is this Naomi?

    20And she said to them, Do not call me Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.

    21I went out full, and the LORD has brought me back empty: why then call me Naomi, seeing the LORD has testified against me, and the Almighty has afflicted me?

    22So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned from the country of Moab: and they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of barley harvest.

    19And her mother-in-law said to her, Where have you gleaned today? And where have you worked? Blessed be he who took notice of you. And she showed her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, and said, The man's name with whom I worked today is Boaz.

    20And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed be he of the LORD, who has not forsaken his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said to her, This man is a relative of ours, one of our nearest kinsmen.

    21And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, You shall stay close by my young men until they have finished all my harvest.

    22And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, that they may not meet you in any other field.

    23So she stayed close by the maidens of Boaz to glean until the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest and lived with her mother-in-law.

    1And Naomi had a relative of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech, and his name was Boaz.

    2And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Let me now go to the field and glean ears of grain after him in whose sight I shall find favor. And she said to her, Go, my daughter.

    3So she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers, and her chance was to happen upon a part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech.

    4And behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said to the reapers, The LORD be with you. And they answered him, The LORD bless you.

    5Then Boaz said to his servant who was set over the reapers, Whose young woman is this?

    6And the servant who was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish young woman who came back with Naomi from the country of Moab.

    7And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves. So she came and has continued even from the morning until now, except she rested a little in the house.
