And when the locusts had eaten every green plant in the land, I said, “Lord GOD, please forgive! How will Jacob survive, since he is so small?”

In context
1 Hivi ndivyo ambavyo Bwana Yahwe alivyonionyesha. Tazama, aliumba kundi kubwa la nzige wakati wa kuchipuka kwa mmea, na, tazama, ulikuwa ni mmea wa mwisho baada ya mavuno ya mfalme.
2 Wakati walipomaliza kula mbogamboga za nchi, kisha nikasema, “Bwana Yahwe, tafadhali nisamehe; Je Yakobo ataishije? kwa kuwa yeye ni mdogo sana.”
3 Yahwe akapunguza hasira kuhusu hili. “Haitatokea,” akasema.
4 Hivi ndivyo ambavyo Bwana Yahwe alivyonionyesha: Tazama, Bwana Yahwe aliita juu ya moto kuhukumu. Nao ukakausha sana, kilindi chini ya dunia na kutaka kuitekeza nchi, pia.
5 Lakini nikasema, “Bwana Yahwe, acha tafadhali; Yakobo ataishije? Kwa kuwa yeye ni mdigo sana.”
