Deuteronomy 32:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷ Remember the days of old,
    reflect on the years of previous generations.
Ask your father,
    and he’ll tell you;
        your elders will inform you.
⁸ When the Most High gave nations as their inheritance,
    when he separated the human race,
he set boundaries for the people
    according to the number of the children of God.^[a]
9 For the Lord’s portion is his people;
    Jacob is his allotted portion.
