Orpah

Orpah was from Moab and was the daughter-in-law of Naomi and wife of Chilion. After the death of her husband, she stayed in Moab.

Ruth 1:4 And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years.

Ruth 1:14 And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth clave unto her.

Orpah returns to her family, Ruth goes with Naomi.
