Deuteronomy 28:38 *Thou shalt cast much seed into the ground, and gather little: because the locusts shall consume all.

Micheas 6:15.; Aggeus 1:6.
All: so that the little which thou mayst gather will not be worth mentioning. (Haydock) --- Hebrew also may signify, "Thy field shall produce a great deal, and give thee abundant expectations, but the locusts shall consume it," to mortify thee the more.
