30 How could one man pursue a thousand,or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them,unless the Lord had given them up?
31 But their “rock” is not like our Rock;even our enemies concede.
32 For their vine is from the vine of Sodomand from the fields of Gomorrah.Their grapes are poisonous;their clusters are bitter.
33 Their wine is serpents’ venom,the deadly poison of cobras.
34 “Is it not stored up with Me,sealed up in My vaults?
35 Vengeance belongs to Me; I will repay. In time their foot will slip,for their day of disaster is near,and their doom is coming quickly.”
36 The Lord will indeed vindicate His peopleand have compassion on His servants when He sees that their strength is goneand no one is left — slave or free.
