8 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “field” →
All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.
How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan:
The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
