Ruth
Ruth pledged to go where Naomi went, to lodge where she lodged, and to make Naomi’s people and God her own. She also vowed to stay with Naomi until death. Ruth’s pledge is recorded in Ruth 1:16–17.
16Ruth said, "Don`t entreat me to leave you, and to return from following after you, for where you go, I will go; and where you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your God my God;
17where you die, will I die, and there will I be buried: Yahweh do so to me, and more also, if anything but death part you and me."
