UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

נָשׁ֖וּב

return

When Orpah and Ruth said we, they were referring to themselves and not Naomi. So languages that have inclusive and exclusive forms of we would use the exclusive form here.

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

וַ⁠תֹּאמַ֖רְנָה

and,said

The word But here indicates a strong contrast between what Naomi said and what the daughters-in-law are about to say. In your translation, indicate this strong contrast in a way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Nevertheless, they said”

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

כִּי־

that/for/because/then/when

The daughters-in-law use the word Rather here to indicate a strong contrast between what Naomi wants them to do and what they propose to do. In your translation, indicate this strong contrast in a way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Instead of that”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

אִתָּ֥⁠ךְ

with,you

The word you is singular here because it refers to Naomi.

The Setting of Ruth

Ruth 1-4

The story of Ruth is set in the time of the Judges, a few generations before the birth of King David. While much animosity often existed between Israel and Moab (Judges 3:12-30; 10:6-12:7; 2 Samuel 8:2; 10; 2 Kings 3:4-27; 2 Chronicles 20; see also Nations across the Jordan River map), other times the two nations appear to have enjoyed a somewhat congenial relationship, as is demonstrated by Naomi’s willingness to relocate to Moab to seek relief from a famine. Later Naomi’s sons also marry Moabite women, and Ruth’s devotion to Naomi and her God no doubt speaks highly of the character of many Moabites. Many years later Ruth’s great-grandson David placed his parents in the care of the king of Moab while he was on the run from King Saul (1 Samuel 22:3-4).
