A Vision of Locusts

7 This is what the Lord God showed me: he was forming a swarm of locusts, when the late spring grass began to come up after the king’s share had been harvested. 2 And when they had finished devouring all the land’s vegetation, I said:

‘Lord God, forgive, I beg you!

How can Jacob survive,

for he is so helpless?’

3 The Lord relented. This will not happen,’ said the Lord.
