And have your sons tell their sons,
And their sons the next generation.
4 What the (B)gnawing locust has left, the [a]swarming locust has eaten;
And what the (C)swarming locust has left, the creeping locust has eaten;
And what the creeping locust has left, the (D)stripping locust has eaten.

And wail, all you wine drinkers,
Because of the sweet wine,
For it has been (F)eliminated from your mouth.
