"Do not call me Naomi," she replied. "Call me Mara, because the Almighty has dealt quite bitterly with me. Context 20She said to them, “Do not call me Naomi; call me Mara, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me. 21“I went out full, but the LORD has brought me back empty. Why do you call me Naomi, since the LORD has witnessed against me and the Almighty has afflicted me?” 22So Naomi returned, and with her Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, who returned from the land of Moab. And they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of barley harvest. Links Ruth 1:20 NIVRuth 1:20 NLT Ruth 1:20 ESV Ruth 1:20 NASB Ruth 1:20 KJV Ruth 1:20 Commentaries Bible Hub |
