God’s Vengeance on the Nations

1
Who is this who comes from (A)Edom,
With (B)garments of (a)glowing colors from (C)Bozrah,
This One who is majestic in His apparel,
(b)Marching in the greatness of His strength?
“It is I who speak in righteousness, (D)mighty to save.”
2
Why is Your apparel red,
And Your garments like the one who (E)treads in the wine press?
3
(F)I have trodden the wine trough alone,
And from the peoples there was no man with Me.
I also (G)trod them in My anger
And (H)trampled them in My wrath;
And (I)their (c)lifeblood is sprinkled on My garments,
And I (d)stained all My raiment.
4
“For the (J)day of vengeance was in My heart,
And My year of redemption has come.
