And Naomi said unto her two daughters-in-law, "Go, return each to her mother's house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me. . . ." And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth clave unto her. . . . "Wherever you go will I go, and wherever you stay will I stay. Your people shall be my people and your God my God. Wherever you die will I die and beside you will I be buried. I vow that only death will separate me from you. . . ." So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter in law, with her, which returned out of the country of Moab: and they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest. —King James Bible Reread the part of the excerpt that begins, “Wherever you go will I go.” What is Ruth telling her mother-in-law, Naomi? God will save Naomi. When Naomi dies, she will be beside her. She is willing to convert to Judaism. She will return to Moab.

Answer:

When Naomi dies, she will be beside her.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given excerpt from the Bible, King James version, the story of Naomi and Ruth is told and how Ruth refuses to leave her mother in-law and vows to stay with her until death.

Therefore, Ruth is telling Naomi that where she goes, she also will go, and will only be separated by death, that when Naomi dies, she will be beside her.
