40 For I lift up My hand to heaven,and say: As I live forever,
41 if I sharpen My flashing swordand My hand takes hold on judgment,I will render vengeance on My enemiesand will repay 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 of the captives,from the heads of the leaders of the enemies.
43 Rejoice, O you nations, with His people;for He will avenge the blood of His servantsand will render vengeance on His adversariesand will be merciful to His land and people.

46 he said to them, “Set your hearts on all the words which I testify among you today, which you shall command your children to be careful to observe, all the words of this law.
