For the mouth of the Lord has said so, and His Spirit has gathered them. 17 He will divide the land among them and give each of them a share. It will be theirs forever.

15 The owl will nest there and lay eggs,
    she will hatch them, and care for her young
    under the shadow of her wings;(A)

None of these will be missing,(D)
    not one will lack her mate.

    his hand distributes them by measure.
They will possess it forever
    and dwell there from generation to generation.(H)
