Ruth 1:11 in context

  1. 9May Yahweh 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.
  2. 10They said to her, “No, but we will return with you to your people.”
  3. 11Naomi said, “Go back, my daughters. Why do you want to go with me? Do I still have sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?
  4. 12Go 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 even have a husband tonight, and should also bear sons,
  5. 13would you then wait until they were grown? Would you then refrain from having husbands? No, my daughters, for it grieves me seriously for your sakes, for Yahweh’s hand has gone out against me.”
