Deuteronomy 32:7-9

New Catholic Bible

⁷ Remember the days of old,
    consider the years of past generations,
Ask your fathers, they will tell you,
    your elders, they will inform you.
⁸ When the Most High divided the inheritance among the nations,
    when he separated the sons of men,
he established the boundaries of the nations
    according to the number of the sons of God.
⁹ The Lord’s own portion was his people,
    Jacob his allotted inheritance.
