Brown-Driver-Briggs

I. זִיז noun masculine^{Psalm 80:14}

collective moving things (i.e. beasts) (etymology & exact meaning still rather dubious, compare Che^{OP 472} and on Psalm 50:11; Thes and others v זוז; De Psalm 50:11 compare Assyrian zizânu, collective reptiles, Dl^{S. 74 f.} from a זִאזֵא compare move to and fro, agitate (compare זוע); others compare Assyrian zâzu, abundance see II. זוז, so even Di Isaiah 66:11; this hardly suits Psalm 80:14; ᵑ7 זִיזָא worm); **on Assyrian zîzê, teats, see RFHarper^{AJSL xiv (1897-1898), 174}. — only construct זִיז שָׂדַי Psalm 50:11 the moving things of the field, as all known to ׳י ("" עוֺף הָרִים; also in Psalm 50:10 חַיְתוֺיָֿ֑עַר, etc.); figurative of enemies of Israel Psalm 80:14 ("" חֲזִיר מִיָּ֑עַר).

II. זִיז noun [masculine] abundance, fulness: only מִזִּיז כְּבוֺדָהּ Isaiah 66:11 that ye may suck out and be delighted, from the abundance of her glory (i.e. of Jerusalem) (so Di and others; > Che^{critical note, and OP 472 f.} Brd (compare Ew 'Euter'), who compare vulgar Arabic zîza, udder (breast, teat); this suits verb תָּמֹצּוּ and "" תִּינְקוּ וּשְׂבַעְתֶּם מִשֹּׁד, but is dubious in Hebrew, perhaps not Shemitic, see Dozy^{i. 619 a and references}; also Lag^{Proph. Chald.} who proposes, plausibly, מִבִּיזִ, compare Aramaic PS⁵⁰², ביזא; Arabic pap).
