1. Who is this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah, this One adorned in His clothing, bending down in His great power? I who speak in righteousness, great to save.
2. Why is Your clothing red, and Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?
3. I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with Me; for I will tread them in My anger and trample them in My fury; and their blood will be sprinkled on My garments, and I will stain all My clothing.
4. For the day of vengeance is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come.
5. And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was no one to uphold; therefore My own arm has saved for Me; and My fury upheld Me.
6. And I will tread down the people in My anger, and make them drunk in My fury, and I will pour their juice to the earth.
7. I will mention the loving-kindnesses of Jehovah, the praises of Jehovah, according to all that Jehovah has benefited for us, and the great good to the house of Israel by which He benefited them according to His mercies, and according to the multitude of His loving-kindnesses.
8. For He said, Surely they are My people, sons that will not lie; so He was their Savior.
9. In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the Angel of His Presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
10. But they rebelled, and troubled His Holy Spirit; therefore He was turned to be their enemy, and He fought against them.
11. Then He remembered the days of old, Moses and His people, saying, Where is He who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of His flock? Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within him;
12. who led them by the right hand of Moses with His glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make Himself an everlasting name?
13. He led them through the deep, like a horse in the wilderness, so that they would not stumble.
14. As a beast goes down into the valley, the Spirit of Jehovah caused him to rest. So You led Your people, to make Yourself a glorious name.
15. Look down from Heaven, and look down from the place of Your holiness and of Your glory; where is Your zeal and Your strength, the multitude of Your tender affections and of Your mercies toward me? Are they withheld?
16. For You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us. You, O Jehovah, are our Father, our Redeemer; Your name is from everlasting.
17. O Jehovah, why have You made us wander from Your ways. You harden our heart from Your fear? For Your servants' sake, return the tribes of Your inheritance.
18. The people of Your holiness have possessed it but a little while; our enemies have trampled Your sanctuary.
19. We are from forever; You never ruled over them; Your name was never called on them.
