Deuteronomy 32:25-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
25 In the street the sword shall bereave,
and in the chambers terror
for young man and woman alike,
nursing child and old gray head.(A)
26 I said, “I will make an end of them[a]
and blot out the memory of them from humankind,”(B)
27 but I feared provocation by the enemy,
for their adversaries might misunderstand
and say, “Our hand is triumphant;
it was not the Lord who did all this.” ’(C)
