Deuteronomy 32:9-11

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁹ But the allotment for the Lord is his people.
Jacob is the territory that is his possession.
¹⁰ The Lord found Jacob in a wild land,
in a desolate land, in a howling wasteland.
He encircled him. He cared for him.
He guarded him like the pupil of his eye.
¹¹ As an eagle rises from its nest
and hovers over its young,
then spreads its wings to catch them
and carries them on the edge of its wings,
