So the LORD said, “I will blot out man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—every man and beast and crawling creature and bird of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.”

I looked, and no man was left; all the birds of the air had fled.

The corpses of this people will become food for the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to scare them away.

I will take up a weeping and wailing for the mountains, a dirge over the wilderness pasture, for they have been scorched so no one passes through, and the lowing of cattle is not heard. Both the birds of the air and the beasts have fled; they have gone away.

Wild donkeys stand on barren heights; they pant for air like jackals; their eyes fail for lack of pasture.”

I will appoint over them four kinds of destroyers, declares the LORD: the sword to kill, the dogs to drag away, and the birds of the air and beasts of the earth to devour and destroy.

Wherever the sons of men or beasts of the field or birds of the air dwell, He has given them into your hand and has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold.

On that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that crawl on the ground. And I will abolish bow and sword and battle in the land, and will make them lie down in safety.

Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea disappear.

It is like a mustard seed that a man tossed into his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”

It contained all kinds of four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth, as well as birds of the air.

I looked at it closely and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air.

As they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks and tossing dust into the air,

Therefore I do not run aimlessly; I do not fight like I am beating the air.

So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.
