16 But Ruth replied, |Stop urging me to abandon you! For wherever you go, I will go. Wherever you live, I will live. Your people will become my people, and your God will become my God. 17 Wherever you die, I will die--and there I will be buried. May the LORD punish me severely if I do not keep my promise! Only death will be able to separate me from you!| 18 When Naomi realized that Ruth was determined to go with her, she stopped trying to dissuade her. Ruth 1:16-18, New English Translation.
