B. THE ARRIVAL IN BETHLEHEM

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

the women 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 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; and they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest.
