Deuteronomy 32:7-9
English Standard Version
7 (A)Remember the days of old;
consider the years of many generations;
(B)ask your father, and he will show you,
your elders, and they will tell you.
8 When the Most High (C)gave to the nations their inheritance,
when he (D)divided mankind,
he fixed the borders[a] of the peoples
according to the number of the sons of God.[b]
9 But the Lord's portion is his people,
Jacob his allotted heritage.
