17 He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
    and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
18 saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan,
    The lot of your inheritance,”
19     when you were but a few men in number,
    yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
20 They went about from nation to nation,
