Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint ; Preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
2. Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of those who do iniquity,
3. Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword. They aimed bitter speech as their arrow,
4. To shoot from concealment at the blameless ; Suddenly they shoot at him, and do not fear.
5. They hold fast to themselves an evil purpose ; They talk of laying snares secretly ; They say, “Who can see them?”
6. They devise injustices, saying, “We are ready with a well-conceived plot “; For the inward thought and the heart of a man are deep.
7. But God will shoot at them with an arrow ; Suddenly they will be wounded.
8. So they will make him stumble ; Their own tongue is against them; All who see them will shake the head.
9. Then all men will fear, And they will declare the work of God, And will consider what He has done.
10. The righteous man will be glad in the LORD and will take refuge in Him; And all the upright in heart will glory.

35. ‘Vengeance is Mine, and retribution, In due time their foot will slip ; For the day of their calamity is near, And the impending things are hastening upon them.’
36. “For the LORD will vindicate His people, And will have compassion on His servants, When He sees that their strength is gone, And there is none remaining, bond or free.
37. “And He will say, ‘Where are their gods, The rock in which they sought refuge ?
38. ‘Who ate the fat of their sacrifices, And drank the wine of their drink offering ? Let them rise up and help you, Let them be your hiding place !
39. ‘See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, And there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
40. ‘Indeed, I lift up My hand to heaven, And say, as I live forever,
41. If I sharpen My flashing sword, And My hand takes hold on justice, I will render vengeance on My adversaries, And I will repay those who hate Me.
42. ‘I will make My arrows drunk with blood, And My sword will devour flesh, With the blood of the slain and the captives, From the long-haired leaders of the enemy.’
43. “Rejoice, O nations, with His people ; For He will avenge the blood of His servants, And will render vengeance on His adversaries, And will atone for His land and His people.”

– Deuteronomy 32: 35-43 (NASB)
