Ruth1:21

21 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?

With my Husband and Sons, and a plentiful Estate for our support.

i. e. Hath born witness, as it were, in Judgment, and given Sentence against me, and declared my Sin by my Punishment.
