15 There the fire shall deuoure thee, the sword shall cut thee of, shall deuoure as the locust, though thou be multiplied as the locust, though thou be as many as the grashopper. 16 Thou hast increased thy marchauntes as the starres of heauen, the locust spoyleth, and fleeth away. 17 Thy princes are as grashoppers, and thy rulers as great locustes, they swarme in hedges in cold weather, the sunne ariseth and they flee, and the place where they were is not knowen. Nahum 3:15-17, Bishops' Bible of 1568. Public domain.
