Ulangan 28:38

The Curse of Reversed Status

28:38 “You will take much seed to the field but gather little harvest, because locusts will consume it.

Hakim-hakim 6:5

6:5 When they invaded ¹  with their cattle and tents, they were as thick ²  as locusts. Neither they nor their camels could be counted. ³  They came to devour ⁴  the land.

[6:5]  ¹ tn Heb “came up.”

[6:5]  ² tn Heb “numerous.”

[6:5]  ³ tn Heb “To them and to their camels there was no number.”

[6:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “destroy.” The translation “devour” carries through the imagery of a locust plague earlier in this verse.
