Ruth 1:17

Where you die, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me.

AD 1849
The Lord do so and so A form of swearing usual in the history of the Old Testament, by which the person wished such and such evils to fall upon them, if they did not do what they said. (Challoner) It is not certain that they expressed what particular evils. (Calmet) They might be willing to undergo any punishment, if they should transgress. (Haydock) The pagans used a similar form of imprecation, 3 Kings xix., and 4 Kings xx. 10. (Calmet)

Richard Challoner

The Lord do so and so: A form of swearing usual in the history of the Old Testament, by which the person wished such and such evils to fall upon them, if they did not do what they said.
