She said to them, “Do not call me Naomi; call me Mara, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.

“For the arrows of the Almighty are within me,
Their poison my spirit drinks;
The terrors of God are arrayed against me.

“I was at ease, but He shattered me,
And He has grasped me by the neck and shaken me to pieces;
He has also set me up as His target.

You brought us into the net;
You laid an oppressive burden upon our loins.

For we have been consumed by Your anger
And by Your wrath we have been dismayed.

For I have eaten ashes like bread And mingled my drink with weeping Because of Your indignation and Your wrath, For You have lifted me up and cast me away.

“Son of man, behold, I am about to take from you the desire of your eyes with a blow; but you shall not mourn and you shall not weep, and your tears shall not come.
