25 I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten,
    the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar,
    my great army, which I sent among you.

    and will praise the name of Yahweh, your God,
    who has dealt wondrously with you;

    and that I am Yahweh, your God, and there is no one else;
    and my people will never again be disappointed.
