You shall carry much seed out into the field, and shall gather but little in; for the locust shall consume it.
Read Chapter 28
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
All: so that the little which thou mayst gather will not be worth mentioning. (Haydock)
Hebrew also may signify, "Thy field shall produce a great deal, and give thee abundant expectations, but the locusts shall consume it "to mortify thee the more.
