translationNotes
- daughters-in-law - in-law** - "son's wives" or "sons' widows"
- each of you - Naomi was talking to two people, so languages that have a dual form of "you" would use that throughout her talk. (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_you)
- your mother's house - AT: "to the home of each of your mothers."
- shown loyalty - AT: "demonstrated that you are loyal."
- loyalty - The Hebrew word here includes the ideas of love, kindness, and faithfulness.
- toward the dead - "to your husbands who died"
- grant you - "give you" or "allow you to have"
- rest - "Rest" here includes security in marriage.
- in the house of another husband - with their new husbands, not someone else's.
- they raised their voices and cried - means that they cried out loud or wept bitterly. (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_idiom)
- we will return - When Orpah and Ruth said "we", they were referring to themselves and not Naomi. So languages that have inclusive and exclusive "we" would use the exclusive form here. (See: en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_exclusive)
- with you - "you" used here is the singular form referring to Naomi.
