Deuteronomy 33:27-29

English Standard Version

²⁷The eternal God is your ^(A)dwelling place,^[a]
    and underneath are the everlasting arms.^[b]
And he thrust out the enemy before you
    and said, ‘Destroy.’
²⁸So Israel lived in safety,
    ^(B)Jacob lived ^(C)alone,^[c]
in a land of grain and wine,
    whose heavens drop down dew.
²⁹Happy are you, O Israel! ^(D)Who is like you,
    a people ^(E)saved by the Lord,
^(F)the shield of your help,
    and the sword of your triumph!
Your enemies shall come fawning to you,
    and you shall tread upon their backs.”
