'Fluttering' in the Bible
the earth hath existed waste and void, and darkness is on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God fluttering on the face of the waters,
Until an arrow pierced his liver [with a mortal wound];Like a bird fluttering straight into the net,He did not know that it would cost him his life.
Like a flitting sparrow or a fluttering swallow,an undeserved curse goes nowhere.
And my hand has found, like nest, the wealth of the peoples, and like the gathering of forsaken eggs, I myself have gathered all the earth. And [there] was no fluttering wing or open mouth or chirp."
Like fluttering birds, like an abandoned nest, so are the daughters of Moab at the fords of the Arnon River.
