Isaiah 63:1-6

God’s Vengeance on the Nations

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.”

Why is Your apparel red,
And Your garments like the one who ^(E)treads in the wine press?

“^(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.

“For the ^(J)day of vengeance was in My heart,
And My year of redemption has come.

“I looked, and there was ^(K)no one to help,
And I was astonished and there was no one to uphold;
So My ^(L)own arm brought salvation to Me,
And My wrath upheld Me.

“I ^(M)trod down the peoples in My anger
And made them ^(N)drunk in My wrath,
And I ^(e)poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”
