Warning Visions

1 ¹This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, ²he was forming locusts when the latter growth was just beginning to sprout, and behold, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings. 2 When they had finished eating the grass of the land, I said, "O Lord GOD, please forgive! ³How can Jacob stand? He is so small!" 3 ⁴The LORD relented concerning this: "It shall not be," said the LORD. 4 ⁵This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, the Lord GOD was calling ⁶for a judgment by fire, and it devoured the great deep and was eating up the land. 5 Then I said, "O Lord GOD, please cease! ⁷How can Jacob stand? He is so small!" 6 ⁸The LORD relented concerning this: "This also shall not be," said the Lord GOD.
