    and gave all the land to our ancestors.

    and set our ancestors free.

¹⁷ You will bring them in and plant them on your own mountain—
    the place, O Lord, reserved for your own dwelling,
    the sanctuary, O Lord, that your hands have established.

⁵⁵ He drove out the nations before them;

    He settled the tribes of Israel into their homes.

¹⁰ He struck down great nations
    and slaughtered mighty kings—
¹¹ Sihon king of the Amorites,
    Og king of Bashan,
    and all the kings of Canaan.
¹² He gave their land as an inheritance,
    a special possession to his people Israel.

⁸ You brought us from Egypt like a grapevine;
    you drove away the pagan nations and transplanted us into your land.
⁹ You cleared the ground for us,
    and we took root and filled the land.
¹⁰ Our shade covered the mountains;
    our branches covered the mighty cedars.
¹¹ We spread our branches west to the Mediterranean Sea;
    our shoots spread east to the Euphrates River.^[a]

His faithful love endures forever.

His faithful love endures forever.
¹⁹ Sihon king of the Amorites,

His faithful love endures forever.
²² a special possession to his servant Israel.
His faithful love endures forever.

⁴⁴ He gave his people the lands of pagan nations,
    and they harvested crops that others had planted.
