Gary,
The LXX text which I'm working with has both. The full verse is: "Be glad,
O heavens, together with Him, and do obeisance to Him, all angels of God; Be
glad O nations with His people, and grow in strength, O sons of God; for the
blood of his sons He shall avenge, and he shall avenge and recompense
punishment to the enemies, and to the ones detesting him he shall
recompense, and the Lord shall clear out the land for His people".
