Naomi Returns with Ruth

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 that the Lord had ^avisited His people by ^bgiving them bread.

7 Therefore she went out from 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.

8 And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, ^a“Go, return each to her mother’s house. ^bThe Lord deal kindly with you, as you have dealt ^cwith the dead and with me.

9 The Lord grant that you may find ^arest, each in the house of her husband.” So she kissed them, and they lifted up their voices and wept.

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

11 But Naomi said, “Turn back, my daughters; why will you go with me? Are there still sons in my womb, ^athat they may be your husbands?
