9 But the Lord’s people were his property.Jacob was his own possession.
10 He found his people in a desert land,in a barren place where animals howl.He guarded them, took care of them,and protected them because they were helpless.
11 Like an eagle that stirs up its nest,hovers over its young,spreads its wings to catch them,and carries them on its feathers,
12 so the Lord alone led his people.No foreign god was with him.
13 He made them ride on the heights of the earthand fed them with the produce of the fields.He gave them honey from rocksand olive oil from solid rock.
14 They ate cheese from cowsand drank milk from sheep and goats.He gave them fat from lambs,rams from the stock of Bashan,male goats, and the best wheat.They drank the blood-red wine of grapes.
15 Jeshurun got fat and disrespectful.(You got fat! You were stuffed! You were gorged!)They abandoned the God who made themand treated the rock of their salvation like a fool.
