I think you are referring to Jeremiah's reference to the city of Babylon as "her".

(Jeremiah 50:13) 13 Because of the indignation of Jehovah she will not be inhabited, and she must become a desolate waste in her entirety. As for anyone passing along by Babylon, he will stare in astonishment and whistle on account of all her plagues.

(Jeremiah 25:9) 9 here I am sending and I will take all the families of the north," is the utterance of Jehovah, "even [sending] to Neb·u·chad·rez′zar the king of Babylon, my servant, and I will bring them against this land and against its inhabitants and against all these nations round about; and I will devote them to destruction and make them an object of astonishment and something to whistle at and places devastated to time indefinite.

(Jeremiah 51:37) 37 And Babylon must become piles of stones, the lair of jackals, an object of astonishment and something to whistle at, without an inhabitant.

Does the bible say anything about a cackling hen?

There is no reference that I could find in the Bible about whistling women. What you are probably referring to is an old Scottish saying about a whistling woman and a crowing hen are neither fit for man or God.


Where in the Bible do you find a whistling woman and a crowing hen is abomination to the lord?

The Bible doesn't say that anywhere.


Where in the bible does it state that a whistling woman is an abomination on to the lord?

I have read The Bible cover to cover multiple time in King James Version and the NIV (1984) and own an exhaustive concordance and do not find that phrase or specific discussion in the Word. I would closely check the version of the Word of God you own and verify the wording in the verse with either the KJV or the Greek. You will find your answer. There is no such admonition in either the Old or in the New Testament. There is, however, a folk rhyme heard used many cultures that predicts "no good end" for a whistling woman, but nowhere in the Bible is whistling referenced pejoratively. For those interested in the folk saying here's one version "A whistling woman and a crowing hen, both will come to no good end". This misogynistic rhyme - comparing a woman who whistles with a hen about to be eaten by a wolf, is simply a way to keep women in their place. While many people can and do refer to the Bible to justify the demeaning of women - this folk rhyme/phrase is not has no Biblical origin.

Where in the Bible do you find 'a whistling woman and a crowing hen is an abomination to the Lord'?

st markAnswer:There appears to be no such statement in the Bible. In many translations, the word "whistling" doesn't appear at all, and where it does (Judges 5:16 in the NIV and 1 Kings 19:12 in the Douay Rheims), it is not in connection with a woman whistling.Likewise, the word "crowing" is absent in many translations, apart from Mark 13:35, which refers to a "cock crowing" in the King James, and a "rooster crowing" in the New King James.On the other hand, there are as many as 19 references to "an abomination to the Lord" in the New King James translation (the highest count among the five translations searched; King James, New King James, Standard, NIV and Douay Rheims). None of them has to do with a "whistling woman" or a "crowing hen."
