Deuteronomy 22:6-7

Amplified Bible

⁶ “If you happen to come upon a bird’s nest along the road, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the mother [bird] is sitting on the young or on the eggs, you shall not take the mother with the young. ⁷ You shall certainly let the mother go, but you may take the young for yourself, so that it may be well with you and that you may prolong your days.
