Isa. 63:1 |
Who is this who comes from Edom / With red-stained garments, from Bozrah? / This One who is majestic in His apparel, / Marching in the greatness of His strength? / It is I who speak in righteousness, / Mighty to save. |
Isa. 63:2 |
Why are You red in apparel, / And Your garments like those of him who treads in the winepress? |
Isa. 63:3 |
I have trodden the wine trough alone, / And from the peoples there was no man with Me. / And I trod them in My anger / And trampled them in My wrath; / And their lifeblood is sprinkled on My garments, / And I have stained all My apparel. |
Isa. 63:4 |
For the day of recompense was in My heart, / And the year of My redemption had come. |
Isa. 63:5 |
And I looked and there was no one to help; / And I was appalled that there was no one to uphold. / Therefore My own arm accomplished salvation for Me, / And My wrath, it upheld Me. |
Isa. 63:6 |
And I trod down the peoples in My anger / And made them drunk in My wrath, / And I poured out their lifeblood upon the earth. |
Isa. 63:7 |
I will make mention of the lovingkindnesses of Jehovah, / The praises of Jehovah, / According to all that Jehovah has bestowed on us / And the great goodness toward the house of Israel, / Which He has bestowed on them according to His compassions / And according to the multitude of His lovingkindnesses. |
Isa. 63:8 |
For He said, Surely, they are My people, / Children who will not deal falsely; / So He became their Savior. |
Isa. 63:9 |
In all their affliction He was afflicted, / And the Angel of His presence saved them; / In His love and in His mercy / He redeemed them, / And He bore them up and carried them / All the days of old. |
Isa. 63:10 |
But they rebelled and grieved / His Spirit of holiness; / Therefore He turned to become their enemy; / He fought against them. |
Isa. 63:11 |
Then He remembered the days of old, Moses [and] His people: / Where is He who brought them up out of the sea / With the shepherds of His flock? / Where is He who put in their midst / His Spirit of holiness; |
Isa. 63:12 |
Who made His glorious arm / Go at the right hand of Moses; / Who divided the waters before them, / To make for Himself a name forever; |
Isa. 63:13 |
Who led them through the depths, / Like a horse in the wilderness, / [And] they did not stumble? |
Isa. 63:14 |
Like the cattle which go down into the valley, / The Spirit of Jehovah caused them to rest. / Thus did You lead Your people, / To make for Yourself a glorious name. |
Isa. 63:15 |
Look down from heaven, / And see from the habitation of Your holiness and Your beauty: / Where are Your zeal and Your mighty acts? / The stirring of Your inward parts / And Your compassions are restrained toward me. |
Isa. 63:16 |
For You are our Father, / Since Abraham does not know us, / And Israel does not acknowledge us. / You, Jehovah, are our Father; / Our Redeemer from eternity is Your name. |
Isa. 63:17 |
Why, O Jehovah, do You cause us to wander from Your ways / [And] harden our hearts so that we do not fear You? / Return for the sake of Your servants, / The tribes of Your inheritance. |
Isa. 63:18 |
Your holy people have possessed Your sanctuary for a little while; / Our adversaries have trodden [it] down. |
Isa. 63:19 |
We have become [like] those over whom You have never ruled, / [Like] those who have not been called by Your name. |
