8 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
8 Like a bird that flees its nest is anyone who flees from home.
8 Like a bird that strays from its nest is a man who strays from his home.
8 People who won't settle down, wandering hither and yon, are like restless birds, flitting to and fro.
8 Like a bird that wanders from its nest Is a man who wanders from his place.
8 A person who strays from home is like a bird that strays from its nest.
