Context Reading
8When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance,when he separated the children of men,he set the bounds of the peoplesaccording to the number of the children of Israel. 9For Yahweh’s portion is his people.Jacob is the lot of his inheritance. 10He found him in a desert land,in the waste howling wilderness.He surrounded him.He cared for him.He kept him as the apple of his eye. 11As an eagle that stirs up her nest,that flutters over her young,he spread abroad his wings,he took them,he bore them on his feathers. 12Yahweh alone led him.There was no foreign god with him.
