BITTERN, A species of heron

Isaiah 14:23

23. I will also make it a possession for the BITTERN, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.

Isaiah 34:11

11. But the cormorant and the BITTERN shall possess it; the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion, and the stones of emptiness.

Zephaniah 2:14

14. And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the BITTERN shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work.
