Deuteronomy 32:9-12

9For the Lord’s allotment is his people, Jacob is his special possession.

10The Lord found him in a desolate land, in an empty wasteland where animals howl. He continually guarded him and taught him; he continually protected him like the pupil of his eye.

11Like an eagle that stirs up its nest, that hovers over its young, so the Lord spread out his wings and took him, he lifted him up on his pinions.

12The Lord alone was guiding him, no foreign god was with him.
