Bible nest

Visited a place today which has 45,000 Bibles, in over 2500 languages. This is one of the newest, a translation of the (Catholic) Bible into Bukusu, a Kenyan language, published 2010! Cool! I was as intrigued by the fact that this (from British illustrator Horace Knowles) was the only image to Ayubu/Job. 9:26 is a most unusual passage to emphasize - though the image also calls to mind God's care for birds of prey in 39.
