14. Formal Translation And my hand found, like a nest, the riches of the peoples, and as one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered all the land, and there was no stirring of a wing, or opening of a mouth, or chirping. |
14. Dynamic Translation My hand reached out like someone finding a nest to seize the riches of the nations, just as someone gathers abandoned eggs, and I collected everything across the land. No wing fluttered, no mouth opened, and not even the faintest chirp was heard. |
