6If a bird’s nest chance to be before thee in the way in any tree, or on the ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs, dthou shalt not take the dam with the young: 7but thou shalt in any wise let the dam go, and take the young to thee; ethat it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.
