28 So Israel's people can now live safely.
    Jacob's descendants have a safe place to live.
They have a land that will give them grain and wine.
    Rain falls from the sky to make the ground wet.

29 Israelites, how happy you are!
    There is no other nation like you.
The Lord himself has rescued you.
He is the one who keeps you safe, like a soldier's shield.
He is like a sword that you use to win against your enemies.
Your enemies will fall down with fear in front of you.
    You will walk all over them.’
