^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.
^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, you nations, with His people;
^(F)For He will avenge the blood of His servants,
^(G)And will return vengeance on His adversaries,
^(H)And will atone for His land and His people.”
