9“Yet it was I who destroyedH8045 the 1AmoriteH567 beforeH4480H6440 them, 2Though his 3heightH1363 was like the heightH1363 of cedarsH730 And he was strongH2634 as the oaksH437; I even destroyedH8045 his 4fruitH6529 aboveH4480H4605 and his rootH8328 belowH4480H8478.10It was I who 5broughtH5927 you up from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, And I ledH1980 you in the wildernessH4057 6fortyH705 yearsH8141 7That you might takeH3423 possessionH3423 of the landH776 of the 8AmoriteH567.11Then I 9raisedH6965 up someH4480 of your sonsH1121 to be prophetsH5030 And someH4480 of your youngH970 menH970 to be 10NaziritesH5139.
