Bereavement » Instances of » Naomi, of her husband
Mahlon and Chilion both died, and the woman was bereaved of her two children and of her husband.
She said to them, "Don't call me Naomi. Call me Mara; for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me. I went out full, and Yahweh has brought me home again empty; why do you call me Naomi, since Yahweh has testified against me, and the Almighty has afflicted me?"
