Mishneh Torah, Prayer and the Priestly Blessing
Whoever says in his supplications, "He that dealt mercifully with a nest of birds, forbidding the taking of the mother-bird together with the nestlings (Deuteronomy 22:6-7) and the slaughtering of a beast and its young in one day (Leviticus 22:28)—may He have mercy upon us", or offers petitions of a similar character is silenced; for these precepts are divine decrees set forth in Scripture and have not been ordained in a spirit of compassion. Were this the motive, the slaughtering of all animals would have been prohibited. It is also forbidden to multiply epithets and say: "O God, Great, Mighty, Awe-inspiring, Powerful, Puissant", since it is beyond human power to exhaust the praises of God. One should therefore limit himself to the attributes used by Moses, our teacher, Peace be upon him.

Not to take the mother-bird with the young, as it is said, “…. thou shalt not take the mother-bird with the young” (Deut. 22:6).
