35 Vengeance to me and recompence belongeth for their crime:
Their foot shall slide assuredly in due appointed time.
For the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
The day of their calamity it is now near at hand,
And things that shall upon them come make hast, and shall not stand.
36 For the Lord shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants; when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.
36 For God shall his own people judge, and for his saints repent,
When none shut up or left he sees but that their power is spent.
37 And he shall say, where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted.
37 And he in his great wrath shall say, where are their gods now gone?
Their stable rock in whom they all did put their trust alone.
38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your pro∣tection.

38 Which fat ate of their sacrifice, and drank drink offrings wine:
Let them rise up now and you help, as your protection fine.
39 See now that I, even I am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal:
39 See now that I am he, ev'n I, no god there is with me:
I kill, and make alive; I wound, and als make whole to be.
Neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
Nor is there any now that can out of my hand deliver:
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgement; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
41 If hold my hand on judgement take, and glittring sword I whet,
I'le render vengeance to my foes, and pay those that me hate.

42 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood (and my sword shall devour flesh)
42 I also those mine arrows will make drunk with blood therefore,
The flesh of all mine enemies my sword it shall devore.
And that with the blood of the slain▪ and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges vpon the enemy.
With blood of those that have been slain and those that captives ly:
From the beginning of revenge upon the enemy.
43 Rejoice, O ye nations with his people: for he will avenge the bloud of his servants,
43 Rejoice ye nations with his folk, for he who doth not change,
Will of his servants all the blood in his own time avenge.
And will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be mercifull unto his land, and to his people.
And will to his adversaries a vengeance render full,
And to his people and his land he will be mercifull.
