1 Who this coming from Edom, splendid with garments from Bozra? this adorned in his attire, bowing himself in his strength? I, speaking in justice, great for salvation. 2 Wherefore red to thine attire, and thy garments as he treading in the wine press? 3 I trod the wine-press alone; and from the people not a man with me: and I will tread them down in my wrath, and I will trample them in mine anger, and their juice shall be sprinkled upon my garment, and I will stain all my vestment. 4 For the day of vengeance is in my heart, and the year of my redemption came. 5 And I shall look, and none helping; and I shall be astonished and none upholding: and my arm will save for me, and my wrath it upheld me. 6 And I will tread down peoples in mine anger; and I will make them drunk in my wrath, and I will bring down their juice to the earth. 7 I will remember the mercies of Jehovah, the praises of Jehovah according to all that Jehovah benefited us, and the abundance of good to the house of Israel which he benefited them according to his mercies and according to the multitude of his kindnesses. 8 And he will say, Surely they my people, sons that will not lie: and he will be to them for Saviour. 9 In all their straits not an adversary, and: a messenger of his face saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he will take them up and bear them all the days forever. Isaiah 63:1-9, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
