Deuteronomy 14:15-18

15 the ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, the hawk of any kind; 16 the little owl and the short-eared owl, the barn owl 17 and the tawny owl, the carrion vulture and the cormorant, 18 the stork, the heron of any kind; the hoopoe and the bat.

Psalms 102:6

6 I am like ^aa desert owl of the wilderness,
like an owl ^{▼▼The precise identity of these birds is uncertain} of the waste places;

Isaiah 13:21-22

21 But ^cwild animals will lie down there,
and their houses will be full of howling creatures;
there ^dostriches ^{▼▼Or owls} will dwell,
and there wild goats will dance.
22 Hyenas ^{▼▼Or foxes} will cry in its towers,
and ^gjackals in ^hthe pleasant palaces;
its time is close at hand
and its days will not be prolonged.

Isaiah 34:11-15

11 ⁱBut the hawk and the porcupine ^{▼▼The identity of the animals rendered hawk and porcupine is uncertain} shall possess it,
the owl and the raven shall dwell in it.
^kHe shall stretch the line of ^lconfusion ^{▼▼Hebrew formlessness} over it,
and the plumb line of emptiness.
12 Its nobles—there is no one there to call it a kingdom,
and all its princes shall be nothing.
13 ⁿThorns shall grow over its strongholds,
nettles and thistles in its fortresses.
It shall be the haunt of ^ojackals,
an abode for ostriches. ^{▼▼Or owls}
14 ^qAnd wild animals shall meet with hyenas;
the wild goat shall cry to his fellow;
indeed, there the night bird ^{▼▼Identity uncertain} settles
and finds for herself a resting place.
15 There the owl nests and lays
and hatches and gathers her young in her shadow;
indeed, there ^sthe hawks are gathered,
each one with her mate.

John 3:19-21

19 ^tAnd this is the judgment: ^uthe light has come into the world, and ^vpeople loved the darkness rather than the light because ^wtheir works were evil. 20 ^xFor everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, ^ylest his works should be exposed. 21 But whoever ^zdoes what is true ^aacomes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
