*
When she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her ,
then she left speaking unto her .
*
So they two went until they came to Bethlehem .
And it came to pass ,
when they were come to Bethlehem ,
that all the city was moved about them ,
and they said ,
Is this Naomi ?
*
And she said unto them ,
Call me not Naomi ,
call me Mara :
for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me .
*
I went out full ,
and the LORD hath brought me home again empty :
why then call ye me Naomi ,
seeing the LORD hath testified against me ,
and the Almighty hath afflicted me ?
*
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 .
