Ruth 1:5 in Context — Ruth 1

3 Élimélec, mari de Naomi, mourut, et elle resta avec ses deux fils.

4 Ils prirent des femmes Moabites, dont l’une se nommait Orpa, et l’autre Ruth, et ils habitèrent là environ dix ans.

5 Machlon et Kiljon moururent aussi tous les deux, et Naomi resta privée de ses deux fils et de son mari.

6 Puis elle se leva, elle et ses belles-filles, afin de quitter le pays de Moab, car elle apprit au pays de Moab que l’Éternel avait visité son peuple et lui avait donné du pain.

7 Elle sortit du lieu qu’elle habitait, accompagnée de ses deux belles-filles, et elle se mit en route pour retourner dans le pays de Juda.
