Deuteronomy 32:40-42

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁰ I raise my hand toward heaven and make this promise:
    As surely as I live forever,
⁴¹ I will sharpen my flashing sword.
    And I will take it in my hand to judge.
I will punish my enemies.
    I will pay back those who hate me.
⁴² My arrows will be covered with their blood.
    My sword will eat their flesh.
The blood will flow from those who are killed and the captives.
    The heads of the enemy leaders will be cut off.”
