5 They have done evil against him.To their shame they are no longer his children.They are an evil and lying people.
6 This is not the way to repay the Lord.You are foolish and unwise.He is your Father and Maker.He made you and formed you.
7 Remember the old days.Think of the years already passed.Ask your father. He will tell you.Ask your elders. They will inform you.
8 The Most High God gave the nations their lands.He divided up the human race.He set up borders for the people.He even numbered the Israelites.
9 The Lord took his people as his share.The people of Jacob were his very own.
10 He found them in a desert.It was a windy, empty land.He surrounded them and brought them up.He guarded them as those he loved very much.
11 He was like an eagle building its nest.It flutters over its young.It spreads its wings to catch them.It carries them on its feathers.
