Isaiah 63:1-6
The Lord’s Day of Vengeance
1Who is this who comes from aEdom,in crimsoned garments from bBozrah,
he who is splendid in his apparel,
cmarching in the greatness of his strength?
“It is I, speaking in righteousness,
mighty to save.”
2Why is your dapparel red,
and your garments like his ewho treads in the winepress?
3 f“I have trodden the winepress alone,
gand from the peoples no one was with me;
I trod them in my anger
and trampled them in my wrath;
their lifeblood ▼
▼Or their juice; also verse 6
spattered on my garments,and stained all my apparel.
4 iFor the day of vengeance was in my heart,
and my year of redemption ▼
▼Or the year of my redeemed
had come.5I looked, but kthere was no one to help;
I was appalled, but there was no one to uphold;
so my own arm brought me salvation,
and my wrath upheld me.
6I trampled down the peoples in my anger;
lI made them drunk in my wrath,
and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”
