1Who is this coming from Edom, from Bozrah, with His garments stained crimson? Who is He that is robed in splendor, marching with majestic strength? “It is I, Who speaks in righteousness, mighty to save.” 2Why are You clothed in red apparel, and Your garments like those of one treading out grapes in the winepress? 3“I have been treading the winepress alone; there was no one from the nations with Me. I have trampled My enemies in My anger, and in My fury; and their blood splattered My garments, and stained all My clothing. 4For this was the day to avenge My people; the year for Me to redeem the oppressed has come. 5I looked, and there was no one to help; and I was appalled that there was none to give support. So, with My own arm I brought salvation to the oppressed, and My fury sustained Me. 6And I trampled the nations down in My anger, and made them stagger in My fury, spilling their blood on the ground.”

7I will speak of the loving-kindnesses of the LORD, and the deeds for which He is to be praised, according to all that the LORD has done for us, and His great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He has bestowed upon them according to His mercies, and the magnitude of His loving-kindnesses. 8For He said, “Surely they are My people, children that will be true to Me”; so He became their Savior. 9In all their suffering, He, too, suffered, and the Angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His mercy, He redeemed them; and He lifted and carried them all the days of old. 10But they rebelled, and grieved His Holy Spirit; therefore, He was turned to be their enemy, and He fought against them. 11Then they remembered the days of old, of Moses, and His people cried, “Where is He Who brought them through the sea like the shepherd of His flock? Where is He Who put His Holy Spirit within them? 12Who led them by the right hand of Moses with His glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make Himself an everlasting name? 13Who led them through the depths, like a horse in the open country, they do not stumble.” 14Like cattle that go down into a peaceful valley, the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest; this is how You led Your people, to make Yourself a glorious name. 15Look down from heaven, and see from Your lofty, holy, and glorious throne. Where is Your zeal and might, Your tenderness and compassion toward us? Where are Your mercy and compassion now? 16But You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us, nor does Israel acknowledge us; You, O LORD, are our Father, our Redeemer; Your name is from everlasting. 17O LORD, why have You allowed us to stray from Your ways, and harden our heart so that we do not revere You? Return for Your servants' sake - the tribes that are Your inheritance. 18Your people have possessed the place of Your holiness for a little while; but now our adversaries have trampled down and destroyed Your sanctuary. 19We are Yours from of old; but we have become like those You have never ruled over; like those who were never called by Your name.
