7 Remember days of old--Understand the years of many generations--Ask thy father, and he doth tell thee; Thine elders, and they say to thee:
8 In the Most High causing nations to inherit, In His separating sons of Adam-- He setteth up the borders of the peoples By the number of the sons of Israel.
9 For Jehovah's portion [is] His people, Jacob [is] the line of His inheritance.
10 He findeth him in a land--a desert, And in a void--a howling wilderness, He turneth him round--He causeth him to understand--He keepeth him as the apple of His eye.
11 As an eagle waketh up its nest, Over its young ones fluttereth, Spreadeth its wings--taketh them, Beareth them on its pinions; --
12 Jehovah alone doth lead him, And there is no strange god with him.
13 He maketh him ride on high places of earth, And he eateth increase of the fields, And He maketh him suck honey from a rock, And oil out of the flint of a rock;
