The Lord says,“ I will give you back what you lost to the swarming locusts, the hopping locusts, the stripping locusts, and the cutting locusts. It was I who sent this great destroying army against you.

“ I struck your farms and vineyards with blight and mildew. Locusts devoured all your fig and olive trees. But still you would not return to me,” says the Lord.

He spoke, and hordes of locusts came— young locusts beyond number.

Just as caterpillars and locusts strip the fields and vines, so the fallen army of Assyria will be stripped!

If you refuse, watch out! For tomorrow I will bring a swarm of locusts on your country.

He gave their crops to caterpillars; their harvest was consumed by locusts.

“ You will plant much but harvest little, for locusts will eat your crops.

The Sovereign Lord showed me a vision. I saw him preparing to send a vast swarm of locusts over the land. This was after the king’s share had been harvested from the fields and as the main crop was coming up.

“ If there is a famine in the land or a plague or crop disease or attacks of locusts or caterpillars, or if your people’s enemies are in the land besieging their towns— whatever disaster or disease there is—

Swarms of insects will destroy your trees and crops.

At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or command grasshoppers to devour your crops, or send plagues among you.

The Lord of Heaven’s Armies has taken this vow and has sworn to it by his own name:“ Your cities will be filled with enemies, like fields swarming with locusts, and they will shout in triumph over you.”

Then locusts came from the smoke and descended on the earth, and they were given power to sting like scorpions.They were told not to harm the grass or plants or trees, but only the people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.They were told not to kill them but to torture them for five months with pain like the pain of a scorpion sting.In those days people will seek death but will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them!The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. They had what looked like gold crowns on their heads, and their faces looked like human faces.

“ If there is a famine in the land or a plague or crop disease or attacks of locusts or caterpillars, or if your people’s enemies are in the land besieging their towns— whatever disaster or disease there is—

Then the Lord said to Moses,“ Raise your hand over the land of Egypt to bring on the locusts. Let them cover the land and devour every plant that survived the hailstorm.”So Moses raised his staff over Egypt, and the Lord caused an east wind to blow over the land all that day and through the night. When morning arrived, the east wind had brought the locusts.And the locusts swarmed over the whole land of Egypt, settling in dense swarms from one end of the country to the other. It was the worst locust plague in Egyptian history, and there has never been another one like it.For the locusts covered the whole country and darkened the land. They devoured every plant in the fields and all the fruit on the trees that had survived the hailstorm. Not a single leaf was left on the trees and plants throughout the land of Egypt.

But the fire will devour you; the sword will cut you down. The enemy will consume you like locusts, devouring everything they see. There will be no escape, even if you multiply like swarming locusts.Your merchants have multiplied until they outnumber the stars. But like a swarm of locusts, they strip the land and fly away.Your guards and officials are also like swarming locusts that crowd together in the hedges on a cold day. But like locusts that fly away when the sun comes up, all of them will fly away and disappear.

Raise a signal flag to the nations. Sound the battle cry! Mobilize them all against Babylon. Prepare them to fight against her! Bring out the armies of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz. Appoint a commander, and bring a multitude of horses like swarming locusts!
