Psalms 105:11

Canaan

9 the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.

10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

“I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”

12 When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,

13 they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
