¹² Then the Lord said to Moses, “^(A)Reach out with your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, so that they may come up on the land of Egypt and ^(B)eat every plant of the land, everything that the hail has left.” ¹³ So Moses reached out with his staff over the land of Egypt, and the Lord directed an east wind on the land all that day and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind ^[a]brought the ^(C)locusts. ^14 (D)The locusts came up over all the land of Egypt and settled in all the territory of Egypt; they were very ^[b]numerous. There had never been so many ^[c]locusts, nor would there be so many ^[d]again.
