I’m in charge of vengeance and payback,

just waiting for them to slip up;

And the day of their doom is just around the corner,

sudden and swift and sure.

36–38Yes, God will judge his people,

but oh how compassionately he’ll do it.

When he sees their weakened plight

and there is no one left, slave or free,

He’ll say, “So where are their gods,

the rock in which they sought refuge,

the rock in which they took refuge,

for at the time their foot slips,

because the day of their disaster is near,

and fate comes quickly for them.’

and concerning his servants;

he will change his mind when he sees that their power has disappeared,

and there is no one left, confined or free.

their rock in whom they took refuge?

To me belongeth vengeance, and recompence;

Their foot shall slide in due time:

For the day of their calamity is at hand,

And the things that shall come upon them make haste.

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.

And he shall say, Where are their gods,

Their rock in whom they trusted,
