1 Kings 8:37

“The time will come when the land suffers from a famine, a plague, blight and disease, or a locust ¹  invasion, or when their enemy lays siege to the cities of the land, ²  or when some other type of plague or epidemic occurs.

Le 26:16,25,26-46; De 28:21,22,25,38-42,52-61; 2Ki 6:25-29; 1Ch 21:12; 2Ch 6:28-31; 2Ch 20:9; Ps 105:34,35; Jer 32:2; Jer 39:1-3; Eze 14:21; Joe 1:4-7; Joe 2:25,26

¹ tn Actually two Hebrew terms appear here, both of which are usually taken as referring to locusts. Perhaps different stages of growth or different varieties are in view.

² tn Heb “in the land, his gates.”
