Nahum 3:15 - 3:17

15
There, fire will consume you;
The sword will cut you down;
It will consume you as the locust does.

Multiply yourself like the creeping locust,
Multiply yourself like the swarming locust.
16
You have increased your traders more than the stars of heaven—
The creeping locust strips and flies away.
17
Your guardsmen are like the swarming locust.
Your marshals are like a locust‑swarm
Encamping in the stone walls on a cold day.
The sun rises, and they flee,
And the place where they are is not known.
