The Lord judge between me and thee,.... And make it appear who is in the right, and who in the wrong:
and the Lord avenge me of thee; if he continued thus to persecute him:
but mine hand shall not be upon thee; to kill thee, though it may be in my power again to do it, as it has been; but this I am determined upon, let me suffer what I will, I will not lay hands on thee to do thee any hurt, but leave thee with God to requite all the evil done to me by thee.
