Deuteronomy 32:41-47

41 1If I have sharpened 2My flashing sword, And My hand has taken hold of justice, 3I will return vengeance on My adversaries, And I will repay those who hate Me.42 4I will make My arrows drunk with blood, 5And My sword will devour flesh, With the blood of the slain and the captives, From the long-haired 6leaders of the enemy.’43 7Rejoice, you nations, with His people; 8For He will avenge the blood of His servants, 9And will return vengeance on His adversaries, 10And will atone for His land and His people.”

44Then Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the hearing of the people, he, with 11 12Joshua the son of Nun. 45When Moses had finished speaking all these words to all Israel, 46he said to them, “13Take to your heart all the words with which I am warning you today, which you will command 14your sons to 15follow carefully, all the words of this Law. 47For it is not a 16trivial matter for you; indeed 17it is your life. And 18by this word you will prolong your days in the land, 19which you are about to cross the Jordan to 20possess.”
