Release a mother bird before taking her children from the nest

you shall certainly let the mother go, but the young you may take for yourself, in order that it may be well with you and that you may prolong your days.

Hebrew

ז שַׁלֵּחַ תְּשַׁלַּח אֶת-הָאֵם, וְאֶת-הַבָּנִים תִּקַּח-לָךְ, לְמַעַן יִיטַב לָךְ, וְהַאֲרַכְתָּ יָמִים. {ס}

Greek

7 ἀποστολῇ ἀποστελεῖς τὴν μητέρα, τὰ δὲ παιδία λήμψῃ σεαυτῷ, ἵνα εὖ σοι γένηται καὶ πολυήμερος ἔσῃ.
