| 1 1 | In the days when the judges ruled there was a famine in the land, and a certain man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons. | RUTH. Elimelech moves to Moab. Ru.1.1-5 | וַיְהִי בִּימֵי שְׁפֹט הַשֹּׁפְטִים וַיְהִי רָעָב בָּאָרֶץ וַיֵּלֶךְ אִישׁ מִבֵּית לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה לָגוּר בִּשְׂדֵי מֹואָב הוּא וְאִשְׁתֹּו וּשְׁנֵי בָנָיו׃ |
|
| 2 | The name of the man was Elim'elech and the name of his wife Na'omi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chil'ion; they were Eph'rathites from Bethlehem in Judah. They went into the country of Moab and remained there. | | וְשֵׁם הָאִישׁ אֱלִימֶלֶךְ וְשֵׁם אִשְׁתֹּו נָעֳמִי וְשֵׁם שְׁנֵי־בָנָיו מַחְלֹון וְכִלְיֹון אֶפְרָתִים מִבֵּית לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה וַיָּבֹאוּ שְׂדֵי־מֹואָב וַיִּהְיוּ־שָׁם׃ |
|
| 3 | But Elim'elech, the husband of Na'omi, died, and she was left with her two sons. | | וַיָּמָת אֱלִימֶלֶךְ אִישׁ נָעֳמִי וַתִּשָּׁאֵר הִיא וּשְׁנֵי בָנֶיהָ׃ |
|
| 4 | These took Moabite wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the name of the other Ruth. They lived there about ten years; | | וַיִּשְׂאוּ לָהֶם נָשִׁים מֹאֲבִיֹּות שֵׁם הָאַחַת עָרְפָּה וְשֵׁם הַשֵּׁנִית רוּת וַיֵּשְׁבוּ שָׁם כְּעֶשֶׂר שָׁנִים׃ |
|
| 5 | and both Mahlon and Chil'ion died, so that the woman was bereft of her two sons and her husband. | | וַיָּמוּתוּ גַם־שְׁנֵיהֶם מַחְלֹון וְכִלְיֹון וַתִּשָּׁאֵר הָאִשָּׁה מִשְּׁנֵי יְלָדֶיהָ וּמֵאִישָׁהּ׃ |
