# you are a swift female camel running here and there
God speaks of Israel worshiping other gods as if they were like a female camel running in different directions looking for a male camel to mate with. Alternate translation: "You are like a swift female camel running back and forth looking for a male camel to mate with" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

able to run quickly
"You are like a swift female camel quickly running back and forth looking for a male camel to mate with". Israel is compared to a female camel or a wild donkey for being unstable and lustful.
