15. There the owl nests and laysand hatches and gathers her young in her shadow;indeed, there the hawks are gathered,each one with her mate.
16. Seek and read from the book of the Lord:Not one of these shall be missing;none shall be without her mate.For the mouth of the Lord has commanded,and his Spirit has gathered them.
17. He has cast the lot for them;his hand has portioned it out to them with the line;they shall possess it forever;from generation to generation they shall dwell in it.
