Deuteronomy 28:42

All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust
consume.
] Which is a creature that not only consumes grass, and herbs, and the corn of the field, but all green trees; see ( Exodus 10:15 ) . This sort here has its name from the shade they make, hiding the light of the sun, and darkening the face of the earth at no on day; or from the noise they make with their wings in flying; see ( Joel 2:5 ) .
