Deuteronomy 32:40-42

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴⁰ ‘Indeed, ^(A)I lift up My hand to heaven,
And say, as I live forever,
^41 (B)If I sharpen My ^[a]flashing sword,
And My hand takes hold on justice,
^(C)I will render vengeance on My adversaries,
And I will repay those who hate Me.
⁴² ‘^(D)I will make My arrows drunk with blood,
^(E)And My sword will devour flesh,
With the blood of the slain and the captives,
From the long-haired ^[b]leaders of the enemy.’
