Thou madist thi marchaundises mo than ben sterris of heuene; a bruke is spred abrood, and flei awei.

Bible (Wycliffe)

In The King James Version

Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and fleeth away.

In Context

15There fier schal ete thee, thou schalt perische bi swerd, it schal deuoure thee, as bruke doith; be thou gaderid togidere as a bruke, be thou multiplied as a locuste.

17Thi keperis ben as locustis, and thi litle children ben as locustis of locustis, whiche sitten togidere in heggis in the dai of coold; the sun is risun, and thei fledden awei, and the place of hem is not knowun, where thei weren.
