^41 (A)If I sharpen My ^[a]flashing sword,
And My hand takes hold on justice,
^(B)I will render vengeance on My adversaries,
And I will repay those who hate Me.
⁴² ‘^(C)I will make My arrows drunk with blood,
^(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.’
⁴³ “^(E)Rejoice, O nations, with His people;
^(F)For He will avenge the blood of His servants,
^(G)And will render vengeance on His adversaries,
^(H)And will atone for His land and His people.”
