Heb. 'ayalah (2 Sam 22:34; Ps 1833, etc.) and 'ayeleth (Psalm 22, title), the female of the hart or stag. It is referred to as an emblem of activity (Gen 49:21), gentleness (Prov 5:19), feminine modesty (Song 2:7; 3:5), earnest longing (Ps 421), timidity (Ps 299). In the title of Psalm 22, the word probably refers to some tune bearing that name.
