9. For the Lord’s portion is his people.Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
10. He 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.
11. As 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.
12. The Lord alone led him.There was no foreign god with him.
13. He made him ride on the high places of the earth.He ate the increase of the field.He caused him to suck honey out of the rock,oil out of the flinty rock;
