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.

Verse 39 is found in chapter 32 of Deuteronomy. The song contrasts Israel’s lack of understanding with the wisdom that should accompany the people’s historical experience. God declares that he will judge and ultimately have compassion on his servants. The conclusion calls the nations to rejoice with his people, expanding the song’s horizon from Israel to God’s relationship with the nations.

Seht ihr nun, daß ich's allein bin und ist kein Gott neben Mir! Ich kann töten und lebendig machen, ich kann schlagen und heilen, und ist niemand, der aus meiner Hand errette.
Ved ahora que yo, yo soy, Y no hay dioses conmigo: Yo hago morir, y yo hago vivir: Yo hiero, y yo curo: Y no hay quien pueda librar de mi mano.
Vean ahora que yo, yo soy él, y no hay dios junto a mí. Yo hago morir y hago vivir; yo he herido y yo sanaré, y no hay quien libre de mi mano.
Sachez donc que c'est moi qui suis Dieu, Et qu'il n'y a point de dieu près de moi; Je fais vivre et je fais mourir, Je blesse et je guéris, Et personne ne délivre de ma main.
Vedete ora, che io, io son desso, E che non v’è alcun Dio meco; Io fo morire, e rimetto in vita; Io ferisco, e guarisco; E non v’è niuno che possa liberar dalla mia mano.
Vede agora que eu, eu o sou, e mais nenhum deus há além de mim; eu mato, e eu faço viver; eu firo, e eu saro, e ninguém há que escape da minha mão.
「『如今,看!我,惟有我是上帝 ; 我以外並無別神。 我使人死,我使人活; 我擊傷人,也醫治人, 沒有人能從我手中救出來。
