Dear friends!<\/p>\n
As I was researching the book of Ruth on your church’s website, I noticed a reference in the text to verse 14 of the first chapter of the book: “Then they lifted up their voices and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, and Ruth clung to her (Ruth 1:14).” This is an NIV translation that I really like. But when you read the same book on the Internet, the browser mechanically translates the word “clung” as “remained.” Of course, it may be a matter of what year the translation version is used, but the one on your website is extremely rare.<\/p>\n
In this regard, I have a request: Do you happen to have a translation of the Bible in this particular edition in Russian in a separate text file or module, for example, for the BibleQuote program? I would be very grateful!<\/p>\n\t
Google’s translation engine provides translations of this website’s pages. I don’t control its accuracy. The verse you were looking at was cited from the New King James Version.<\/p>\n
Each Bible reference links to BibleLink, which Crossway Bibles operates. Clicking on the link takes you to their page, where you can choose a translation. They have a large number of translations in many languages. Unfortunately, the automatic creation of Bible links only works in the English translation.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
