    6 The servant who was set over the reapers answered, "It is the Moabite lady who came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab.

    7 She said, 'Please let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves.' So she came, and has continued even from the morning until now, except that she stayed a little in the house."

    1 It happened in the days when the judges judged, that there was a famine in the land. A certain man of Bethlehem Judah went to live in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.

    2 The name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem Judah. They came into the country of Moab, and continued there.

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

    4 They took them 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.

    5 Mahlon and Chilion both died, and the woman was bereaved of her two children and of her husband.

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

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