4 Your plunder, O nations, is harvested as by young locusts;

like a swarm of locusts people pounce on it.

4 And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpiller:

As the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.

4 Just as caterpillars and locusts strip the fields and vines,

so the fallen army of Assyria will be stripped!

4 And Your plunder shall be gathered

Like the gathering of the caterpillar;

As the running to and fro of locusts,

He shall run upon them.

4 Like locusts, your enemies will take away the things you stole in war.

Like locusts rushing about, they will take your wealth.

4 And your spoil shall be gathered as the caterpillar gathereth: as locusts leap shall men leap upon it.

4 And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running of locusts shall they run upon it.

4 You nations, your loot is gathered as grasshoppers harvest a crop. 

Like swarming locusts, people rush for your loot. 

4 Your spoil will be gathered as locusts are gathered;

people will swarm over it like an infestation of locusts.

4 Spoil was gathered as the caterpillar gathers;

as locusts leap, they leaped upon it.

4 And your spoil is gathered,

as the gathering of the locust,

as a swarm of locusts storming on it.

4 Nations, what you have taken in battle is destroyed.

It’s as if young locusts had eaten it up.

Like large numbers of locusts,

people rush to get it.

4 Your spoil is gathered as the caterpillar gathers;

As locusts rushing about men rush about on it.
