Proverbs 26:2

כַּצִּפּ֣וֹר לָ֭נוּד כַּדְּר֣וֹר לָע֑וּף כֵּ֤ן קִֽלְלַ֥ת חִ֝נָּ֗ם לֹ֣א תָבֹֽא׃
King James Version (KJV)

As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.

Modern English

Like a sparrow in its flitting, like a swallow in its flying, a curse that is causeless does not alight.

Hebrew

כַּצִּפּ֣וֹר לָ֭נוּד כַּדְּר֣וֹר לָע֑וּף כֵּ֤ן קִֽלְלַ֥ת חִ֝נָּ֗ם לֹ֣א תָבֹֽא׃
