Isaiah 34:15

15 Owls ^{▼▼ Hebrew קִפּוֹז (qippoz) occurs only here; the precise meaning of the word is uncertain.} will make nests and lay eggs ^{▼▼ For this proposed meaning for Hebrew מָלַט (malat), see HALOT 589 s.v. I מלט.} there;
they will hatch them and protect them. ^{▼▼ Heb “and brood [over them] in her shadow.”}
Yes, hawks ^{▼▼ The precise meaning of דַּיָּה (dayyah) is uncertain, though the term appears to refer to some type of bird of prey, perhaps a vulture.} will gather there,
each with its mate.
