Deuteronomy 32:39-41
International Standard Version
39 “Look now! I AM,[a]
and there is no other god besides me.
I myself cause death
and I sustain life;
I wound severely
and I also heal;
from my power[b] no one can deliver.
40 “I solemnly swear[c] to heaven—
I say ‘As certainly as I’m alive and living forever,
41 I’ll whet my shining sword,
with my hands in firm grasp of judgment.
I’ll show vengeance on my adversary
and repay those who keep on hating me.
