He shows his word to Jacob; his statutes and his ordinances to Israel. He has not done this for just any nation. They don’t know his ordinances. Praise Yah!

Echo2

A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.

Eph 2:11-12 ?

'He has not dealt thus with any other nation; they do not know his ordinances' parallels the Gentiles being 'without God,' aliens to Israel's covenant privileges. The thematic coherence is strong though unmarked.

Low confidence
Rom 9:1-5 ?

'The giving of the law' (nomothesia) as a unique privilege of Israel echoes the psalm's boast that God 'declares his word to Jacob... He has not dealt so with any nation.'
