Mine heritage is unto me as a speckled bird] Or, a tallanted fowl. Either a ravenous fowl; or, a pied one: she is grown wild and fierce. Or, she hath gotten her a garb patched up of divers superstitions, casting off my simple liverie; as not content therewith. Chap. 7. 9, 10. Ezek. 8. 5, 10, 14, 16.
the birds round about are against her] The nations, her enemies, flock about her; as birds about a strange fowl.
come ye, assemble] Or, go, assemble.
all the beasts of the field] Heb. every beast. as Chap. 9. 10.
come to devour] Or, cause them to come to devoure her. To prey upon her, as ravenous beasts upon a flock of theep; Isaiah 56:9. or, to spoil her, as wild beasts breaking into a vineyard; Psalms 80:13. or, to feed upon the carcasses of men slain by the enemy. Chap. 7. 33. & 15. 3. Revelation 19:17-18.
