Deuteronomy

Deuteronomy 32:35–36

35Vengeance is Mine; I will repay.i

In due time their foot will slip;

for their day of disaster is near,

and their doom is coming quickly.”

36For the LORD will vindicate His peoplej

and have compassion on His servants

when He sees that their strength is gone

and no one remains, slave or free.
