  • Exod 10:4-6 : 4 If you refuse to let my people go, I will bring locusts into your territory tomorrow. 5 They will cover the surface of the ground so that it cannot be seen, and they will devour what little is left after the hail, including every tree growing in your fields. 6 They will fill your houses, the houses of all your officials, and the houses of all the Egyptians—something neither your parents nor your ancestors have ever seen from the day they settled in this land until now."

  • Rev 9:3-9 : 3 Out of the smoke, locusts came down to the earth, and they were given power like that of scorpions on the earth. 4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth, any green plant, or any tree, but only the people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads. 5 They were not allowed to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. 6 In those days people will seek death but will not find it; they will desire to die, but death will flee from them. 7 The appearance of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. On their heads were something like crowns of gold, and their faces were like human faces. 8 They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like lions' teeth. 9 They had breastplates like iron breastplates, and the sound of their wings was like the noise of many horse-drawn chariots rushing into battle. 10 They had tails with stingers like scorpions, and in their tails, they had power to harm people for five months. 11 They had a king over them, the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, he is called Apollyon (the Destroyer).
  • Joel 2:7-9 : 7 They charge like mighty warriors; they scale walls like soldiers. Each marches in formation without veering off course. 8 They do not jostle each other; each proceeds in its path. They burst through defenses and are not halted. 9 They rush into the city, they run upon the walls. They climb into houses and enter through the windows like a thief. 10 Before them, the earth quakes, the heavens tremble. The sun and moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their brightness. 11 The LORD thunders before his army; his forces are very great. Mighty is the one who executes his word. The day of the LORD is great and very dreadful—who can endure it?

They devoured every plant in the land, all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Nothing green remained on a tree or plant in all the land of Egypt.
