The Book of Isaiah (WEB)
63: 1Who is this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this who is glorious
in his clothing, marching in the greatness of his strength? I who speak in righteousness, mighty to
save. 63:2Why are you red in your clothing, and your garments like him who treads in the wine vat?
63:3I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yes, 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 clothing. 63:4For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the
year of my redeemed is come. 63:5I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there
was none to uphold: therefore my own arm brought salvation to me; and my wrath, it upheld me.
63:6I trod down the peoples in my anger, and made them drunk in my wrath, and I poured out their
lifeblood on the earth. 63:7I will make mention of the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh, and the praises
of Yahweh, according to all that Yahweh has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the
house of Israel, which he has bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the
multitude of his lovingkindnesses. 63:8For he said, Surely, they are my people, children who will
not deal falsely: so he was their Savior. 63:9In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of
his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bore them, and
carried them all the days of old. 63:10But they rebelled, and grieved his holy Spirit: therefore he was
turned to be their enemy, and himself fought against them. 63:11Then he remembered the days of
old, Moses and his people, saying, Where is he who brought them up out of the sea with the
shepherds of his flock? where is he who put his holy Spirit in the midst of them? 63:12who caused
his glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? who divided the waters before them, to make
himself an everlasting name? 63:13who led them through the depths, as a horse in the wilderness, so
that they didn't stumble? 63:14As the cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of Yahweh caused
them to rest; so did you lead your people, to make yourself a glorious name. 63:15Look down from
heaven, and see from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory: where are your zeal and
your mighty acts? the yearning of your heart and your compassion is restrained toward me. 63:16For
you are our Father, though Abraham doesn't know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us: you,
Yahweh, are our Father; our Redeemer from everlasting is your name. 63:17O Yahweh, why do you
make us to err from your ways, and harden our heart from your fear? Return for your servants'
sake, the tribes of your inheritance. 63:18Your holy people possessed it but a little while: our
adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary. 63:19We are become as they over whom you never
bear rule, as those who were not called by your name.
