Verse 43 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.

Jauchzet alle, die ihr sein Volk seid; denn er wird das Blut seiner Knechte rächen und wird sich an seinen Feinden rächen und gnädig sein dem Lande seines Volkes.

Aclamen, naciones, a su pueblo, porque él vengará la sangre de sus siervos, tomará venganza de sus adversarios y hará expiación por su tierra y su pueblo».
Nations, chantez les louanges de son peuple! Car l'Eternel venge le sang de ses serviteurs, Il se venge de ses adversaires, Et il fait l'expiation pour son pays, pour son peuple.
Sclamate d’allegrezza, o nazioni, o suo popolo; Perciocchè egli farà la vendetta del sangue de’ suoi servitori, E farà retribuzion di vendetta a’ suoi avversari, E sarà propizio alla sua terra, al suo popolo
Jubilai, ó nações, o seu povo, porque ele vingará o sangue dos seus servos, e sobre os seus adversários retribuirá a vingança, e terá misericórdia da sua terra e do seu povo.
「列國啊,當與耶和華的子民一同歡呼 ; 因為他要為他僕人 所流的血伸冤, 報應他的敵人 , 救贖他的土地和他的子民 。」
