Spanish to English Other Poetry & Literature Literature.

I would like to know the best translation of this phrase from Latin American Spanish into American English.

Translator colleagues from Spain, feel free to send me your suggestions as well. This is a translation about Mythology. It's about the story of "The Pandora Box"
Is okay to translate as"a swarm of adversities exploded"

I hope that all of you are healthy and safe from The Covid19 Pandemic.
