For they came up with their livestock and their tents; they would come in like locusts in number; both they and their camels were without number, and they came into the land to ravage it.

I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; not with your sword, nor with your bow.
I will send the hornet before you, which will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.
Moreover the LORD your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.
