But [as] I live, and as My name lives, so the glory of the Lord shall fill all the earth.

surely they shall not see the land, which I swore to their fathers; but their children which are with Me here, as many as know not good or evil, every inexperienced youth, to them shall I give the land; but none who have provoked Me shall see it.

For I will lift up My hand to heaven, and swear by My right hand, and I will say, I live forever.

I will make My weapons drunk with blood, and My sword shall devour flesh[, it shall gorge itself] with the blood of the wounded, and from the captivity of the heads of [their] enemies that rule over them.

Neither will I by any means profane My covenant; and I will not make void the things that proceed out of My lips.
