Deuteronomy 32:35
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.

Study Note
God's declaration 'vengeance is mine, and recompense' (li naqam ve-shillem) establishes divine ownership of retributive justice, cited in both Romans 12:19 and Hebrews 10:30 as the ground for human non-retaliation. The Song of Moses context locates this claim within God's planned judgment on both Israel's enemies and on unfaithful Israel, framing divine vengeance as the instrument of ultimate justice in a world where human retaliation would only perpetuate cycles of violence. Paul cites the verse in Romans 12:19 as the theological warrant for the command 'never avenge yourselves,' making the reservation of judgment to God the basis for the ethic of enemy love in the following verses (12:20-21). The verse grounds the non-retaliatory ethics of both Testaments in a theology of deferred but certain divine justice.
