15 There will the owl nest and lay eggs,
    and hatch and gather its young under her wings;
there, too, the buzzards will gather,
    each one with its mate.
16 Consult the book[a] of the Lord and read it.

    not one will be without its mate.
For the mouth of the Lord has commanded this,
    and his Spirit has gathered them together.
17 He has allotted the portion for each;
    his hand has measured out their shares.
They will possess it forever
    and dwell there from generation to generation.
