Let them rise and help you; let them be your refuge!“ See now that I, indeed I, am he!” says the LORD,“ and there is no other god besides me. I kill and give life, I smash and I heal, and none can resist my power.For I raise up my hand to heaven, and say,‘ As surely as I live forever,I will sharpen my lightning- like sword, and my hand will grasp hold of the weapon of judgment; I will execute vengeance on my foes, and repay those who hate me!I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword will devour flesh– the blood of the slaughtered and captured, the chief of the enemy’s leaders!’”Cry out, O nations, with his people, for he will avenge his servants’ blood; he will take vengeance against his enemies, and make atonement for his land and people.

Psalms 102:13-18
You will rise up and have compassion on Zion. For it is time to have mercy on her, for the appointed time has come.Indeed, your servants take delight in her stones, and feel compassion for the dust of her ruins.The nations will respect the reputation of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth will respect his splendor,when the LORD rebuilds Zion, and reveals his splendor,when he responds to the prayer of the destitute, and does not reject their request.The account of his intervention will be recorded for future generations; people yet to be born will praise the LORD.
