Ruth 1:2
|
He was named Elimelech, and his wife, Noemi: and his two sons, the one Mahalon, and the other Chelion, Ephrathites of Bethlehem Juda. And entering into the country of Moab, they abode there.
|
Ruth 1:3
|
And Elimelech the husband of Noemi died: and she remained with her sons.
|
Ruth 1:15
|
And Noemi said to her: Behold thy kinswoman is returned to her people, and to her gods, go thou with her.
|
Ruth 1:18
|
Then Noemi, seeing that Ruth was steadfastly determined to go with her, would not be against it, nor persuade her any more to return to her friends:
|
Ruth 1:19
|
So they went together and came to Bethlehem. And when they were come into the city, the report was quickly spread among all: and the women said: This is that Noemi.
|
Ruth 1:20
|
But she said to them: Call me not Noemi, (that is, beautiful,) but call me Mara, (that is, bitter,) for the Almighty hath quite filled me with bitterness.
|
Ruth 1:21
|
I went out full, and the Lord hath brought me back empty. Why then do you call me Noemi, whom the Lord hath humbled and the Almighty hath afflicted?
|
Ruth 1:22
|
So Noemi came with Ruth the Moabitess her daughter in law, from the land of her sojournment: and returned into Bethlehem, in the beginning of the barley harvest.
|
Ruth 2:6
|
And he answered him: This is the Moabitess who came with Noemi, from the land of Moab,
|
Ruth 2:20
|
And Noemi answered her: Blessed be he of the Lord: because the same kindness which he shewed to the living, he hath kept also to the dead. And again she said: The man is our kinsman.
|
Ruth 3:1
|
After she was returned to her mother in law, Noemi said to her: My daughter, I will seek rest for thee, and will provide that it may be well with thee.
|
Ruth 3:18
|
And Noemi said: Wait my daughter, till we see what end the thing will have. For the man will not rest until he have accomplished what he hath said.
|
Ruth 4:3
|
They sat down, and he spoke to the kinsman: Noemi, who is returned from the country of Moab, will sell a parcel of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech.
|
Ruth 4:9
|
And he said to the ancients and to all the people: You are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and Chelion's, and Mahalon's, of the hand of Noemi:
|
Ruth 4:14
|
And the women said to Noemi: Blessed be the Lord, who hath not suffered thy family to want a successor, that his name should be preserved in Israel.
|
Ruth 4:16
|
And Noemi taking the child laid it in her bosom, and she carried it, and was a nurse unto it.
|
Ruth 4:17
|
And the women her neighbours, congratulating with her and saying: There is a son born to Noemi: called his name Obed: he is the father of Isai, the father of David.
