'Little Ones' in the Bible

And why does LORD bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be a prey. Were it not better for us to return into Egypt?

But your little ones, that ye said would be a prey, them I will bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have rejected.

So they got up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side. And Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.

And the sons of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones. And all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.

Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that has known man by lying with him.

And they came near to him, and said, We will build sheepfolds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones,

but we ourselves will be ready armed to go before the sons of Israel, until we have brought them to their place. And our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.

Build for you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep, and do that which has proceeded out of your mouth.

Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead,
