# so many locusts

|
|
"there were so many locusts"
|
|
|
|
# The locusts ate up all of the vegetation ... They ate up all the crops of the ground
|
|
|
|
These two phrase have basically the same meaning and are used together for emphasis. AT: "The insects ate all the plants and all the crops in the land" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

|
# He killed every firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their strength
|
|
|
|
Here the second phrase about the "firstfruits" is used to describe the "firstborn" in the first phrase. AT: "He killed every firstborn in their land, which were the firstfruits of all their strength" or "Then Yahweh killed the oldest son in every house of the people of Egypt" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
