I just found a search the bible place on the internet.  The passage is
Proverbs 30:30.  It is talking about 4 things that are majestic and
mentions 'greyhound' in the King James version with a footnote that the
exact meaning is unknown.  Some of the other versions substitute 'rooster'
for 'greyhound.'
