Deuteronomy 32:40

Compare all

38 Who ate the fat of their sacrifices,
And drank the wine of their drink offering?
Let them rise and help you,
And be your refuge.

39 ‘Now see that ^aI, even I, am He,
And ^bthere is no God besides Me;
^cI kill and I make alive;
I wound and I heal;
Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.

40 For I raise My hand to heaven,
And say, “As I live forever,

41 ^aIf I¹ whet My glittering sword,
And My hand takes hold on judgment,
I will render vengeance to My enemies,
And repay those who hate Me.

42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood,
And My sword shall devour flesh,
With the blood of the slain and the captives,
From the heads of the leaders of the enemy.” ’
