Deuteronomy 32:39-41

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁹ Realize the truth! I alone am God.
    There is no other god as well as me.
I can kill and I can give life.
    I can hurt people and I can make them well again.
Nobody can stop me doing what I choose to do.
⁴⁰ I lift up my hand to heaven and I make this strong promise:
“I promise you this, as surely as I live for ever:
⁴¹     I will make my sword very sharp.
It will move like lightning as I hold it in my hand.
    I will punish my enemies as they deserve.
I will pay back everyone who hates me.
