5 They have dealt corruptly with him;they are no longer his children because they are blemished;they are a crooked and twisted generation.
6 Do you thus repay the Lord,you foolish and senseless people?Is not he your father, who created you,who made you and established you?

9 But the Lord’s portion is his people,Jacob his allotted heritage.
10 “He found him in a desert land,and in the howling waste of the wilderness;he encircled him, he cared for him,he kept him as the apple of his eye.
