Isaiah 31:5

31:5

birds <06833> [birds.]

protect ..... protect <01598> [defending.]

passes over <06452> [passing.]

Or rather, as Bp. Lowth renders, "leaping forward," {pasoach.} As the mother bird spreads her wings to cover her young, throws herself before them, and opposes the rapacious bird that assaults them; so shall Jehovah protect, as with a shield, Jerusalem from the enemy, protecting and delivering, springing forward and rescuing her.
