Deliver yourself like a gazelle from the hunter’s hand
And like a bird from the hand of the fowler.

I lie awake,
I have become like a lonely bird on a housetop.

Like a bird that wanders from her nest,
So is a man who wanders from his home.

“Is My inheritance like a speckled bird of prey to Me?
Are the birds of prey against her on every side?
Go, gather all the beasts of the field,
Bring them to devour!

My enemies without cause
Hunted me down like a bird;

After this I kept looking, and behold, another one, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird; the beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it.

As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird—
No birth, no pregnancy and no conception!
