17:14 If I cry 1 to corruption, 2 ‘You are my father,’
and to the worm, ‘My Mother,’ or ‘My sister,’
102:6 I am like an owl 3 in the wilderness;
I am like a screech owl 4 among the ruins. 5
13:21 Wild animals will rest there,
the ruined 6 houses will be full of hyenas. 7
Ostriches will live there,
wild goats will skip among the ruins. 8
13:22 Wild dogs will yip in her ruined fortresses,
jackals will yelp in the once-splendid palaces. 9
Her time is almost up, 10
her days will not be prolonged. 11
38:14 Like a swallow or a thrush I chirp,
I coo 12 like a dove;
my eyes grow tired from looking up to the sky. 13
O sovereign master, 14 I am oppressed;
help me! 15
1:8 For this reason I 16 will mourn and wail;
I will walk around barefoot 17 and without my outer garments. 18
I will howl 19 like a wild dog, 20
and screech 21 like an owl. 22
