consume, devour, finish off, destroy completely
This verb means to consume or finish off completely, used of locusts devouring crops. The Aramaic cognate means 'come to an end' or 'bring to an end.' Deuteronomy 28:38 uses it in a covenant curse: the locust will consume the harvest, leaving nothing for the disobedient. The term emphasizes total destruction—not partial damage but complete consumption, leaving the farmer with nothing to gather.

1. sense 1 — Deuteronomy 28:38 warns that 'the locust will consume it' (the harvest), part of the curses for covenant disobedience. The multilingual glosses (English 'consumes-it,' Spanish 'la-consumirá,' French/German 'consumes-cela/es') emphasize total destruction. The context describes futile labor: you'll plant much but harvest little because the locust finishes off everything. The verb captures the voraciousness and completeness of the devastation—nothing survives the swarm. 1×
