Crane (Grus grus) — The word does not occur in D.V., but seems the best translation of Hebrew עָגוּר, ‘āḡūr - Strongs: H5693, read in two passages: Is. 38:14, and Jer. 8:7, where its loud voice and migratory instincts are alluded to. There is little doubt that the two above indicated places of D.V., where we read "swallow", should be corrected.

Verses:

  • Isaiah 38:14
  • Jeremiah 8:7
