Deuteronomy 32:7-9 NIV

[7] Remember the days of old; consider the generations long past. Ask your father and he will tell you, your elders, and they will explain to you. [8] When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when he divided all mankind, he set up boundaries for the peoples according to the number of the sons of Israel. [9] For the LORD’s portion is his people, Jacob his allotted inheritance.
