箴言30:27（和合本）蝗虫没有君王，却分队而出。

根据圣经中关于蝗虫的记载，例如在摩西时代的埃及，这些小虫子能产生巨大的影响。虽然单独一只蝗虫力量有限，但足够多的蝗虫聚集在一起，就能造成极大破坏。

20 That, however, is not the way of life you learned 21 when you heard about Christ and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus. 22 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds; 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:20-24)
