'Ostriches' in the Bible
I have become a brother to jackalsand a companion of ostriches.
“The ostriches’ wings flap joyouslyWith the pinion and plumage of love,
But desert creatures will lie down there,and owls will fill the houses.Ostriches will dwell there,and wild goats will leap about.
Her palaces will be overgrown with thorns;her fortified cities, with thistles and briers.She will become a dwelling for jackals,an abode for ostriches.
The animals of the field will honor Me,jackals and ostriches,because I provide water in the wilderness,and rivers in the desert,to give drink to My chosen people.
Therefore, desert creatures will live with hyenas,and ostriches will also live in her.It will never again be inhabitedor lived in through all generations.
Even the sea monsters draw out the breast, they give suck to their young ones: the daughter of my people is become cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness.
