Deuteronomy 32:36-38
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
36 Surely, the Lord will do justice for his people;
on his servants he will have pity.
When he sees their strength is gone,
and neither bond nor free[a] is left,(A)
37 He will say, Where are their gods,(B)
the rock in whom they took refuge,
38 Who ate the fat of their sacrifices
and drank the wine of their libations?
Let them rise up now and help you!
Let them be your protection!
