Ruth 1:3
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Then Naomi’s husband Elimelech died, and she was left with her two sons,
In context
1 In the days when the judges ruled, there was a famine in the land. And a certain man from Bethlehem in Judah, with his wife and two sons, went to reside in the land of Moab.
2 The man’s name was Elimelech, his wife’s name was Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in Judah, and they entered the land of Moab and settled there.
3 Then Naomi’s husband Elimelech died, and she was left with her two sons,
4 who took Moabite women as their wives, one named Orpah and the other named Ruth. And after they had lived in Moab about ten years,
5 both Mahlon and Chilion also died, and Naomi was left without her two sons and without her husband.
