Isaiah 63:2-6

Expanded Bible

² Someone asks, “Why are your clothes bright red
as if you had ·walked [stomped; trodden] on the grapes to make wine?”

³ The Lord answers, “I have ·walked [stomped; trodden] in the winepress alone,
    and no one among the nations ·helped [^Lwas with] me.
I was angry and ·walked [stomped; trod] on the nations
    and crushed them because of my anger.
Blood splashed on my clothes,
    and I stained all my clothing.
⁴ ·I chose a time to punish people [^L…for the day of vengeance was in my heart],
    and the ·time [year] has come for me to ·save [redeem].
⁵ I looked around, but I saw no one to help me.
    I was ·surprised [shocked; appalled] that no one supported me [59:16].
So ·I used my own power to save my people [^Lmy own arm accomplished salvation/victory];
    my own ·anger [wrath] ·supported [sustained; upheld] me.
⁶ While I was angry, I ·walked on the [trampled] nations.
    In my ·anger [wrath] I ·punished them [made them drunk; 49:26; 51:23]
and poured their ·blood [^Ljuice] on the ·ground [earth].”
