kouch'-ing-plas (marbets; once in English Versions of the Bible,Eze 25:5): The same Hebrew word, however, which means simply "place of lying down" of animals in repose, is used also in Ze 2:15 where the translation is "a place.... to lie down in." The figure, a common one in Scripture (see besides,Isa 17:2;27:10), suggests desolation.
