16 But Ruth said, Give up requesting me to go away from you, or to go back without you: for where you go I will go; and where you take your rest I will take my rest; your people will be my people, and your God my God.

17 Wherever death comes to you, death will come to me, and there will be my last resting-place; the Lord do so to me and more if we are parted by anything but death.

16 Na ka mea a Rutu, Kaua ra e tohe ki ahau kia whakarerea koe, kia hoki atu i te whai i a koe; ta te mea ka haere ahau ki tau wahi e haere ai, ka noho hoki ki tau wahi e noho ai; ko tou iwi hei iwi moku, ko tou Atua hei Atua moku;

17 Ka mate ahau ki te wahi e mate ai koe, ka tanumia hoki ki reira: kia meatia tenei e Ihowa ki ahau, etahi atu mea ano hoki, ina, ko te mate anake hei wehe i a taua.
