And it cameH935 to pass, when they wereH1961 comeH935 to Beth-lehem, that all the cityH5892 wasH1961 moved about them, and the women saidH559, Is this NaomiH5281? 20And she saidH559 unto them, CallH7121 me not NaomiH5281, callH7121 me Mara; for the AlmightyH7706 hath dealt veryH3966 bitterly with me. 21I wentH1980 out fullH4392, and Jehovah hath broughtH7725 me home again emptyH7387; whyH4100 callH7121 ye me NaomiH5281, seeing Jehovah hath testified against me, and the AlmightyH7706 hath afflicted me? 22So NaomiH5281 returnedH7725, and RuthH7327 the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returnedH7725 out of the countryH7704 of MoabH4124: and they cameH935 to Beth-lehem in the beginning of barleyH8184 harvestH7105.
