Isaiah 63
63:1Who is this, the one coming from out of Edom, with garments dyed red from out of Bozrah? This one beautiful in his apparel, with a mighty force? I reason righteousness and the case of deliverance.
63:2Why are your clothes red, and your garments as from a trampled wine vat,
63:3full of that being trampled? And of the nations there is not a man with me. And I trampled them in my rage, and I broke them in pieces as ground, and led their blood unto the ground. And all my garments are defiled.
63:4For a day of recompense came upon them, and a year of ransoming is at hand.
63:5And I looked, and there was no helper. And I paid attention, and no one assisted. And my arm rescued them, and my rage attended to it.
63:6And I trampled them in my anger, and I led down their blood unto the ground.
63:7I remembered the mercy of the lord; the virtues of the lord in all which he recompenses to us. The lord -- a good judge to the house of Israel; he brings upon us according to his mercy, and according to the magnitude of his righteousness.
63:8And he said, Children in no way will disrespect my people. And he became to them for deliverance,
63:9from out of all their affliction. Not an ambassador, nor an angel, but he, the lord delivered them, because of loving them. And he spared them -- he ransomed them, and he took them, and raised them all the days of the eon.
63:10But they resisted persuasion, and provoked his holy spirit. And the lord turned against them for enmity; he waged war against them.
63:11And he remembered everlasting days; the bringing up from the land the shepherd of the sheep. Where is the one putting the holy spirit in them?
63:12the one leading Moses by the right hand, the one being the arm of his glory? He prevailed over water in front of him; he made for himself an everlasting name.
63:13He led them through the deep as a horse through a wilderness, and they tired not.
63:14And as cattle led through a plain, spirit of the lord descended, and guided them. Thus you led your people to make for yourself a glorious name.
63:15Turn from heaven, and look from your holy house, and from your glory! Where is your zeal and your strength? Where is the abundance of your mercy and your compassions, that you withheld from us?
63:16For you are our father. For Abraham did not know us, and Israel did not recognize us. But you, O lord our father, rescue us! From the beginning your name is upon us.
63:17Why did you wander us, O lord, from your way? You hardened our hearts to not fear you? Return on account of your servants! on account of the tribes of your inheritance.
63:18that we should inherit a little of your holy mountain. Our adversaries trampled your sanctuary.
63:19We became as from the beginning when you did not rule us, nor was your name called upon us.
