Thematic Bible: Owl


Thematic Bible



the eagle owl, the short-eared owl, the long-eared owl, the hawk of any kind,

I have become a brother to jackals and a companion of ostriches.


Her fortresses will be overgrown with thorns; thickets and weeds will grow in her fortified cities. Jackals will settle there; ostriches will live there.

For this reason I will mourn and wail; I will walk around barefoot and without my outer garments. I will howl like a wild dog, and screech like an owl.

Therefore desert creatures and jackals will live there. Ostriches will dwell in it too. But no people will ever live there again. No one will dwell there for all time to come.

Wild animals will rest there, the ruined houses will be full of hyenas. Ostriches will live there, wild goats will skip among the ruins.

Owls and wild animals will live there, all kinds of wild birds will settle in it. The Lord will stretch out over her the measuring line of ruin and the plumb line of destruction.

the eagle owl, the short-eared owl, the long-eared owl, the hawk of any kind,

the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the falcon after its species,

I have become a brother to jackals and a companion of ostriches.

The wild animals of the desert honor me, the jackals and ostriches, because I put water in the desert and streams in the wilderness, to quench the thirst of my chosen people,


the little owl, the long-eared owl, the white owl,

the eagle owl, the short-eared owl, the long-eared owl, the hawk of any kind, the little owl, the cormorant, the screech owl,
