³⁹ “See now that I myself am he!^(A)
    There is no god besides me.^(B)
I put to death^(C) and I bring to life,^(D)
    I have wounded and I will heal,^(E)
    and no one can deliver out of my hand.^(F)
40 I lift my hand^(G) to heaven and solemnly swear:
    As surely as I live forever,^(H)
41 when I sharpen my flashing sword^(I)
    and my hand grasps it in judgment,
I will take vengeance^(J) on my adversaries
    and repay those who hate me.^(K)
42 I will make my arrows drunk with blood,^(L)
    while my sword devours flesh:^(M)
the blood of the slain and the captives,
    the heads of the enemy leaders.”
