Deuteronomy 32:41-42

41 (A)If I have sharpened [a]My flashing sword,
And My hand has taken hold of justice,
(B)I will return vengeance on My adversaries,
And I will repay those who hate Me.

(D)And My sword will devour flesh,
With the blood of the slain and the captives,
From the long-haired [b]leaders of the enemy.’

10 For (A)that day belongs to the Lord [a]God of armies,
A day of (B)vengeance, so as to avenge Himself on His foes;
And the (C)sword will devour and be satisfied,
And [b]drink its fill of their blood;
For there will be a (D)slaughter for the Lord [c]God of armies,
In the land of the north at the river Euphrates.

3 and say to the land of Israel, ‘This is what the Lord says: “Behold, (A)I am against you; and I will draw My sword from its sheath and cut off from you the (B)righteous and the wicked. 4 Because I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore My sword will go out from its sheath against [a](C)humanity from south to north. 5 So [b]humanity will know that I, the Lord, have drawn My sword from its sheath. It will (D)not return to its sheath again.”’
