Ruth 1:16-18

Modern English Version

¹⁶ But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or to turn back from following you. For wherever you go, I will go, and wherever you stay, I will stay. Your people shall be my people and your God my God. ¹⁷ Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord do thus to me, and worse, if anything but death separates you and me!” ¹⁸ When Naomi saw that she was determined to go with her, she said no more to her.
