Deuteronomy 32:41-43
Christian Standard Bible
41 when I sharpen my flashing sword,
and my hand takes hold of judgment,
I will take vengeance on my adversaries
and repay those who hate me.
42 I will make my arrows drunk with blood
while my sword devours flesh—
the blood of the slain and the captives,
the heads of the enemy leaders.”[a]
43 Rejoice, you nations, concerning his people,[b](A)
for he will avenge the blood of his servants.[c]
He will take vengeance on his adversaries;[d](B)
he will purify his land and his people.[e]

because it will be a sacrifice(A) to the Lord, the God of Armies,
in the northern land by the Euphrates River.(B)
