What the cutting
locust of envy leaves,
the swarming locust
of spiritual pride will eat.
What the swarming
locust of spiritual pride leaves,
the hopping locust of
mistrust of God will eat.
What the hopping
locust of mistrust of God leaves,
the destroying locust
of self deception will eat.
God have mercy!
