It was very severe; there had been no locusts like them before, nor will there be such ever again.They covered the surface of all the ground, so that the ground became dark with them, and they ate all the vegetation of the ground and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Nothing green remained on the trees or on anything that grew in the fields throughout the whole land of Egypt.

They encamp in the walls on a cold day, yet when the sun rises, they fly away; and no one knows where they are.
