38
You shall carry much seed out into the field, and shall gather little in; for the locust shall consume it.
39
You shall plant vineyards and dress them, but you shall neither drink of the wine, nor gather [the grapes]; for the worm shall eat them.
40
You shall have olive-trees throughout all your borders, but you shall not anoint yourself with the oil; for your olive shall cast [its fruit].
41
You shall father sons and daughters, but they shall not be yours; for they shall go into captivity.
42
All your trees and the fruit of your ground shall the locust possess.
