Yahweh Will Rise Up Against Israel
7 Thus Lord Yahweh showed me, and behold, He was forming a (A)locust-swarm [a]when the spring crop began to come up. And behold, the spring crop was after the king’s [b]mowing. 2 And it happened [c]when it had (B)completed eating the vegetation of the land, that I said,
“(C)Lord Yahweh, please pardon!
[d]How can Jacob rise up,
For he is (D)small?”
3 Yahweh [e](E)relented concerning this.
“It shall not be,” said Yahweh.

New International Version
Locusts, Fire and a Plumb Line
7 This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me:(A) He was preparing swarms of locusts(B) after the king’s share had been harvested and just as the late crops were coming up. 2 When they had stripped the land clean,(C) I cried out, “Sovereign Lord, forgive! How can Jacob survive?(D) He is so small!(E)”
3 So the Lord relented.(F)
“This will not happen,” the Lord said.(G)
