²⁸ May God give you heaven’s dew^(A)
    and earth’s richness^(B)—
    an abundance of grain^(C) and new wine.^(D)

⁹ For the Lord’s portion^(A) is his people,
    Jacob his allotted inheritance.^(B)

¹⁰ In a desert^(C) land he found him,
    in a barren and howling waste.^(D)
He shielded^(E) him and cared for him;
    he guarded him as the apple of his eye,^(F)
11 like an eagle that stirs up its nest
    and hovers over its young,^(G)
that spreads its wings to catch them
    and carries them aloft.^(H)
12 The Lord alone led^(I) him;^(J)
    no foreign god was with him.^(K)

¹³ He made him ride on the heights^(L) of the land
    and fed him with the fruit of the fields.
He nourished him with honey from the rock,^(M)
    and with oil^(N) from the flinty crag,
¹⁴ with curds and milk from herd and flock
    and with fattened lambs and goats,
with choice rams of Bashan^(O)
    and the finest kernels of wheat.^(P)
You drank the foaming blood of the grape.^(Q)
