Read it in contextRuth 1:13–19
13 would you really wait for them to grow up? Would you shut yourselves away for their sake and stay unmarried? No, my daughters. My bitterness is much greater than yours, because Yahweh’s hand has gone out against me.” 14 Once more they raised their voices and wept. Orpah kissed her mother-in-law farewell, but Ruth held fast to her. 15 Naomi said, “See, your sister-in-law has returned to her people and to her gods. Follow your sister-in-law back.” 16 But Ruth said, “Do not press me to abandon you, to turn back and stop following you. For wherever you go, I will go, and wherever you spend the night, I will spend the night. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. 17 Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May Yahweh deal harshly with me, and worse still, if anything but death comes between you and me.” 18 When Naomi saw that Ruth was set on going with her, she said nothing further to her. 19 The two of them traveled on until they reached Bethlehem. When they arrived in Bethlehem, the whole town was in an uproar over them, and the women said, “Is this really Naomi?”
