“Yet it was I who destroyed the (A)Amorite before them,
[a]Though his (B)height was like the height of cedars,
And he was strong as the oaks;
I even destroyed his (C)fruit above and his root below.
10 And it was I who (D)brought you up from the land of Egypt,
And I led you in the wilderness (E)forty years
[b]That you might take possession of the land of the (F)Amorite.
11 Then I (G)raised up some of your sons to be prophets
And some of your choice men to be (H)Nazirites.
Is this not so, O sons of Israel?” declares Yahweh.
