Deuteronomy 32:9-12

“For the LORD’S portion and chosen share is His people; Jacob (Israel) is the allotment of His inheritance. “He found him in a desert land, In the howling wasteland of a wilderness; He kept circling him, He took care of him, He protected him as the apple of His eye. “As an eagle that protects its nest, That flutters over its young, He spread out His wings and took them, He carried them on His pinions. [Luke 13:34] “So the LORD alone led him; There was no foreign god with him.
