34. Is not this stored up with me,sealed up in my storehouses?
35. Vengeance is mine and recompense,for the time they lose their footing;Because the day of their disaster is at handand their doom is rushing upon them!
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 is left,
37. He will say, Where are their gods,the rock in whom they took refuge,
38. Who ate the fat of their sacrificesand drank the wine of their libations?Let them rise up now and help you!Let them be your protection!
39. See now that I, I alone, am he,and there is no god besides me.It is I who bring both death and life,I who inflict wounds and heal them,and from my hand no one can deliver.
40. For I raise my hand to the heavensand will say: As surely as I live forever,
41. When I sharpen my flashing sword,and my hand lays hold of judgment,With vengeance I will repay my foesand requite those who hate me.
42. I will make my arrows drunk with blood,and my sword shall devour flesh—With the blood of the slain and the captured,from the long-haired heads of the enemy.
