Isaiah 63
1 Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honorable in His clothing, Traveling in the abundance of His power? “I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.”
| מִי־זֶה ׀ בָּא מֵאֱדוֹם חֲמוּץ בְּגָדִים מִבׇּצְרָה זֶה הָדוּר בִּלְבוּשׁוֹ צֹעֶה בְּרֹב כֹּחוֹ אֲנִי מְדַבֵּר בִּצְדָקָה רַב לְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃ |
2 Why [is] Your clothing red? And Your garments as treading in a winepress?
| מַדּוּעַ אָדֹם לִלְבוּשֶׁךָ וּבְגָדֶיךָ כְּדֹרֵךְ בְּגַֽת׃ |
3 “I have trodden a wine vat by Myself, And of the peoples there is no one with Me, And I tread them in My anger, And I trample them in My fury, Their strength is sprinkled on My garments, And I have defiled all My clothing.
| פּוּרָה ׀ דָּרַכְתִּי לְבַדִּי וּמֵֽעַמִּים אֵֽין־אִישׁ אִתִּי וְאֶדְרְכֵם בְּאַפִּי וְאֶרְמְסֵם בַּחֲמָתִי וְיֵז נִצְחָם עַל־בְּגָדַי וְכׇל־מַלְבּוּשַׁי אֶגְאָֽלְתִּי׃ |
4 For the day of vengeance [is] in My heart, And the year of My redeemed has come.
| כִּי יוֹם נָקָם בְּלִבִּי וּשְׁנַת גְּאוּלַי בָּֽאָה׃ |
5 And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And My own arm gives salvation to Me. And My wrath—it has supported Me.
| וְאַבִּיט וְאֵין עֹזֵר וְאֶשְׁתּוֹמֵם וְאֵין סוֹמֵךְ וַתּוֹשַֽׁע־לִי זְרֹעִי וַחֲמָתִי הִיא סְמָכָֽתְנִי׃ |
6 And I tread down peoples in My anger, And I make them drunk in My fury, And I bring down their strength to earth.”
| וְאָבוּס עַמִּים בְּאַפִּי וַאֲשַׁכְּרֵם בַּחֲמָתִי וְאוֹרִיד לָאָרֶץ נִצְחָֽם׃ |
7 I make mention of the kind acts of YHWH, The praises of YHWH, According to all that YHWH has done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He has done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
| חַֽסְדֵי יְהֹוָה ׀ אַזְכִּיר תְּהִלֹּת יְהֹוָה כְּעַל כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־גְּמָלָנוּ יְהֹוָה וְרַב־טוּב לְבֵית יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר־גְּמָלָם כְּֽרַחֲמָיו וּכְרֹב חֲסָדָֽיו׃ |
8 And He says, “Surely they [are] My people, Sons—they do not lie,” and He is to them for a Savior.
| וַיֹּאמֶר אַךְ־עַמִּי הֵמָּה בָּנִים לֹא יְשַׁקֵּרוּ וַיְהִי לָהֶם לְמוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃ |
9 In all their distress [He is] no adversary, And the Messenger of His Presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He lifts them up, And carries them all the days of old.
| בְּֽכׇל־צָרָתָם ׀ (לא) [לוֹ] צָר וּמַלְאַךְ פָּנָיו הוֹשִׁיעָם בְּאַהֲבָתוֹ וּבְחֶמְלָתוֹ הוּא גְאָלָם וַֽיְנַטְּלֵם וַֽיְנַשְּׂאֵם כׇּל־יְמֵי עוֹלָֽם׃ |
10 And they have been rebellious and have grieved His Holy Spirit, And He turns to them for an enemy, He Himself has fought against them.
| וְהֵמָּה מָרוּ וְעִצְּבוּ אֶת־רוּחַ קׇדְשׁוֹ וַיֵּהָפֵךְ לָהֶם לְאוֹיֵב הוּא נִלְחַם־בָּֽם׃ |
11 And He remembers the days of old, Moses—his people. Where [is] He who is bringing them up from the sea, The shepherd of His flock? Where [is] He who is putting in its midst His Holy Spirit?
| וַיִּזְכֹּר יְמֵֽי־עוֹלָם מֹשֶׁה עַמּוֹ אַיֵּה ׀ הַֽמַּעֲלֵם מִיָּם אֵת רֹעֵי צֹאנוֹ אַיֵּה הַשָּׂם בְּקִרְבּוֹ אֶת־רוּחַ קׇדְשֽׁוֹ׃ |
12 Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of His glory, Cleaving waters from before them, To make to Himself a continuous Name.
| מוֹלִיךְ לִימִין מֹשֶׁה זְרוֹעַ תִּפְאַרְתּוֹ בּוֹקֵֽעַ מַיִם מִפְּנֵיהֶם לַעֲשׂוֹת לוֹ שֵׁם עוֹלָֽם׃ |
13 Leading them through the depths, They do not stumble as a horse in a plain.
| מוֹלִיכָם בַּתְּהֹמוֹת כַּסּוּס בַּמִּדְבָּר לֹא יִכָּשֵֽׁלוּ׃ |
14 As a beast goes down into a valley, The Spirit of YHWH causes him to rest, So You have led Your people, To make to Yourself a glorious Name.
| כַּבְּהֵמָה בַּבִּקְעָה תֵרֵד רוּחַ יְהֹוָה תְּנִיחֶנּוּ כֵּן נִהַגְתָּ עַמְּךָ לַעֲשׂוֹת לְךָ שֵׁם תִּפְאָֽרֶת׃ |
15 Look attentively from the heavens, And see from Your holy and beautiful habitation, Where [is] Your zeal and Your might? The multitude of Your bowels and Your mercies—Are they restrained?
| הַבֵּט מִשָּׁמַיִם וּרְאֵה מִזְּבֻל קׇדְשְׁךָ וְתִפְאַרְתֶּךָ אַיֵּה קִנְאָֽתְךָ וּגְבוּרֹתֶךָ הֲמוֹן מֵעֶיךָ וְֽרַחֲמֶיךָ אֵלַי הִתְאַפָּֽקוּ׃ |
16 For You [are] our Father, For Abraham has not known us, And Israel does not acknowledge us, You, O YHWH, [are] our Father, Our Redeemer from the Age, [is] Your Name.
| כִּֽי־אַתָּה אָבִינוּ כִּי אַבְרָהָם לֹא יְדָעָנוּ וְיִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא יַכִּירָנוּ אַתָּה יְהֹוָה אָבִינוּ גֹּאֲלֵנוּ מֵעוֹלָם שְׁמֶֽךָ׃ |
17 Why cause us to wander, O YHWH, from Your ways? You harden our heart from Your fear, Turn back for Your servants’ sake, The tribes of Your inheritance.
| לָמָּה תַתְעֵנוּ יְהֹוָה מִדְּרָכֶיךָ תַּקְשִׁיחַ לִבֵּנוּ מִיִּרְאָתֶךָ שׁוּב לְמַעַן עֲבָדֶיךָ שִׁבְטֵי נַחֲלָתֶֽךָ׃ |
18 For a little while Your holy people possessed, Our adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
| לַמִּצְעָר יָרְשׁוּ עַם־קׇדְשֶׁךָ צָרֵינוּ בּוֹסְסוּ מִקְדָּשֶֽׁךָ׃ |
19 We have been from of old, You have not ruled over them, Your Name is not called on them!
| הָיִינוּ מֵֽעוֹלָם לֹא־מָשַׁלְתָּ בָּם לֹֽא־נִקְרָא שִׁמְךָ עֲלֵיהֶם לֽוּא־קָרַעְתָּ |
