RUT 1:1

I Dommernes Dage blev der engang Hungersnød i Landet. Da drog en Mand fra Betlehem i Juda til Moabitternes Land for at bo der som fremmed med sin Hustru og sine to Sønner.

Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Beth-lehem-judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
