33 like wine made from the venom of snakes.
34 “The Lord remembers what their enemies have done;he waits for the right time to punish them.
35 The Lord will take revenge and punish them;the time will come when they will fall;the day of their doom is near.
36 The Lord will rescue his peoplewhen he sees that their strength is gone.He will have mercy on those who serve him,when he sees how helpless they are.
37 Then the Lord will ask his people,‘Where are those mighty gods you trusted?
38 You fed them with the fat of your sacrificesand offered them wine to drink.Let them come and help you now;let them run to your rescue.
39 “ ‘I, and I alone, am God;no other god is real.I kill and I give life, I wound and I heal,and no one can oppose what I do.
