36For the Lord will be judge of his people, he will have pity for his servants; when he sees that their power is gone, there is no one, shut up or free.
37And he will say, Where are their gods, the rock in which they put their faith?
38Who took the fat of their offerings, and the wine of their drink offering? Let them now come to your help, let them be your salvation.
39See now, I myself am he; there is no other god but me: giver of death and life, wounding and making well: and no one has power to make you free from my hand.
40For lifting up my hand to heaven I say, By my unending life,
41If I make sharp my shining sword, and my hand is outstretched for judging, I will give punishment to those who are against me, and their right reward to my haters.
42I will make my arrows red with blood, my sword will be feasting on flesh, with the blood of the dead and the prisoners, of the long-haired heads of my haters.
