Ruth 1

During the days of the šōp̄ēṭîm, Elimelek and his family flee famine from Beit-Lechem to Mo'av, where he and his sons Mahlon and Kilion die, leaving Naomi widowed; she returns to Yehudah with her Moabite daughter-in-law Rut, who pledges loyalty: 'Where you go I will go... your God my God.'[1][2][8]
