Exodus 10:12-15

Contemporary English Version

¹² The Lord told Moses, “Stretch your arm toward Egypt. Swarms of locusts will come and eat everything left by the hail.”

¹³ Moses held out his walking stick, and the Lord sent an east wind that blew across Egypt the rest of the day and all that night. By morning, locusts ^14 (A) were swarming everywhere. Never before had there been so many locusts in Egypt, and never again will there be so many. ¹⁵ The ground was black with locusts, and they ate everything left on the trees and in the fields. Nothing green remained in Egypt—not a tree or a plant.
