Origin and Progress of Israel
7 Remember the days of old,
Scan the years, age upon age;
Ask of thy sire that he shew thee,
Thine elders, that they may tell thee.
8 When the Highest gave nations their heritage,
When He sundered the children of men,
He set the bounds of the peoples
By the tale of Israel's sons (?)
9 For the Lord's own lot is Jacob,
Israel the scale of His heritage.
