Isaiah 63:1-6

English Standard Version

The Lord's Day of Vengeance

63 Who is this who comes from ^(A)Edom,
    in crimsoned garments from ^(B)Bozrah,
he who is splendid in his apparel,
    ^(C)marching in the greatness of his strength?
“It is I, speaking in righteousness,
    mighty to save.”

²Why is your ^(D)apparel red,
and your garments like his ^(E)who treads in the winepress?

³^(F)“I have trodden the winepress alone,
    ^(G)and from the peoples no one was with me;
I trod them in my anger
    and trampled them in my wrath;
their lifeblood^[a] spattered on my garments,
    and stained all my apparel.
⁴^(H)For the day of vengeance was in my heart,
    and my year of redemption^[b] had come.
⁵I looked, but ^(I)there was no one to help;
    I was appalled, but there was no one to uphold;
so my own arm brought me salvation,
    and my wrath upheld me.
⁶I trampled down the peoples in my anger;
    ^(J)I made them drunk in my wrath,
    and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”
