39 “ ‘See now that I, even I, am he,

and there is no god beside me;

I kill and I make alive;

I wound and I heal;

and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

40 For I lift up my hand to heaven

and swear, As I live forever,

41 if I sharpen my flashing sword

and my hand takes hold on judgment,

I will take vengeance on my adversaries

and will repay those who hate me.

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:

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.

41 If I whet my glittering sword,

And mine hand take hold on judgment;

I will render vengeance to mine enemies,

And will reward them that hate me.

39 Look now; I myself am he!

There is no other god but me!

I am the one who kills and gives life;

I am the one who wounds and heals;

no one can be rescued from my powerful hand!

40 Now I raise my hand to heaven

and declare, “As surely as I live,

41 when I sharpen my flashing sword

and begin to carry out justice,

I will take revenge on my enemies

and repay those who reject me.

39 ‘Now see that I, even I, am He,

And there is no God besides Me;

I kill and I make alive;

I wound and I heal;

Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.

40 For I raise My hand to heaven,

And say, “As I live forever,

41 If I whet My glittering sword,

And My hand takes hold on judgment,

I will render vengeance to My enemies,

And repay those who hate Me.

39 “Now you will see that I am the one God!

There is no god but me.

I send life and death;

I can hurt, and I can heal.

No one can escape from me.

40 I raise my hand toward heaven and make this promise:

As surely as I live forever,

41 I will sharpen my flashing sword,

and I will take it in my hand to judge.

I will punish my enemies

and pay back those who hate me.

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;

And there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

40 For I lift up my hand to heaven,

And say, As I live for ever,

41 If I whet my glittering sword,

And my hand take hold on judgment;

I will render vengeance to mine adversaries,

And will recompense them that hate me.

39 See now that I, I am HE, And there is no god with me; I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal, And there is none that delivereth out of my hand, 40 For I lift up my hand to the heavens, and say, I live for ever! 41 If I have sharpened my gleaming sword, And my hand take hold of judgment, I will render vengeance to mine adversaries, And will recompense them that hate me.

39 See, I am the only God. 

There are no others. 

I kill, and I make alive. 

I wound, and I heal, 

and no one can rescue you from my power. 

40 I raise my hand toward heaven and solemnly swear: 

As surely as I live forever, 

41 I will sharpen my flashing sword 

and take justice into my own hands. 

Then I will take revenge on my enemies 

and pay back those who hate me. 

39 See now that I alone am He;

there is no God but Me.

I bring death and I give life;

I wound and I heal.

No one can rescue anyone from My hand.

40 I raise My hand to heaven and declare:

As surely as I live forever,

41 when I sharpen My flashing sword,

and My hand takes hold of judgment,

I will take vengeance on My adversaries

and repay those who hate Me.

39 See now that I, even I, am he;

there is no god besides me.

I kill, and I make alive;

I wound, and I heal;

and no one can deliver from my hand.

40 For I lift up my hand to heaven

and swear, As I live forever,

41 when I whet my flashing sword

and my hand takes hold on judgment,

I will take vengeance on my adversaries

and will repay those who hate me.

39 See, now, that I, even I am he,

and there is not a god besides me;

I put to death and I give life;

I wound and I heal;

there is not one who delivers from my hand!

40 For indeed I lift up my hand to heaven,

And I promise as I live forever,

41 When I sharpen my flashing sword,

and my hand takes hold of it in judgment,

I will take reprisals against my foes,

and my haters I will repay.

39 “Look! I am the One!

There is no other God except me.

I put some people to death. I bring others to life.

I have wounded, and I will heal.

No one can save you from my powerful hand.

40 I raise my hand to heaven. Here is the oath I take.

You can be sure that I live forever.

41 And you can be just as sure

that I will sharpen my flashing sword.

My hand will hold it when I judge.

I will get even with my enemies.

I will pay back those who hate me.

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.
