Deuteronomy 32:8-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 When the Most High allotted each nation its heritage,
when he separated out human beings,(A)
He set up the boundaries of the peoples
after the number of the divine beings;[a]
9 But the Lord’s portion was his people;
his allotted share was Jacob.(B)
