Deuteronomy 32:36-43

Revised Geneva Translation

³⁶ ‘For the LORD shall judge His people, and have compassion on His servants, when He sees that their power is gone, and that no one remains, bond or free.

³⁷ ‘When men shall say, “Where are their gods, their mighty god, in whom they trusted,

³⁸ “who ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their drink offering? Let them rise up and help you. Let him be your refuge.”

³⁹ ‘Behold now. For I, I am He. And there are no gods with Me. I kill and give life. I wound. And I make whole. Nor is there anyone who can deliver out of My hand.

⁴⁰ ‘For I lift up My hand to Heaven, and say, ‘I live forever.

⁴¹ ‘If I whet My glittering sword, and My hand takes hold on judgment, I will execute vengeance on My enemies, and will reward those who hate Me.

⁴² ‘I will make My arrows drunk with blood and My sword shall eat flesh —for the blood of the slain and of the captives—when I begin to take vengeance on the enemy.’

⁴³ “Rejoice, O you nations of His people! For He will avenge the blood of His servants, and will execute vengeance upon His adversaries, and will be merciful to His land, and to His people.”
