Deuteronomy 32:39-42
The Message
39-42 “Do you see it now? Do you see that I’m the one?
Do you see that there’s no other god beside me?
I bring death and I give life, I wound and I heal—
there is no getting away from or around me!
I raise my hand in solemn oath;
I say, ‘I’m always around. By that very life I promise:
When I sharpen my lightning sword
and execute judgment,
I take vengeance on my enemies
and pay back those who hate me.
I’ll make my arrows drunk with blood,
my sword will gorge itself on flesh,
Feasting on slain and captive alike,
the proud and vain enemy corpses.’”
Deuteronomy 32:39-41
New International Version
39 “See now that I myself am he!(A)
There is no god besides me.(B)
I put to death(C) and I bring to life,(D)
I have wounded and I will heal,(E)
and no one can deliver out of my hand.(F)
40 I lift my hand(G) to heaven and solemnly swear:
As surely as I live forever,(H)
41 when I sharpen my flashing sword(I)
and my hand grasps it in judgment,
I will take vengeance(J) on my adversaries
and repay those who hate me.(K)
