“Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, Yahweh of Armies, my King, and my God.”
“Even the birds find a home there, and the swallow builds a nest, where she can protect her young near your altars, O LORD of Heaven’s Armies, my king and my God.”
How dear are your tents, O Lord of armies!

The little birds have places for themselves, where they may put their young, even your altars, O Lord of armies, my King and my God.
