Isaías 34:14

Isa 34:14 The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.

Ver. 14. The wild beasts of the desert. ] Heb., Ziim et jiim. See Isaiah 13:21-22 , where these monstrous creatures are said to dance: whence Basil noteth, that men learned of devils to dance, and another a saith that a dance is a circle, the centre whereof is the devil, the circumference all his angels.

And the satyr shall cry to his fellow. ] Heb., The rough or hairy one. Chald., Daemones inter se colludent, the devils shall play among themselves; Satan is a rough harsh spirit; so are his. See Leviticus 17:7 .
