< Isaiah 63 >

1 Who? this - [is] coming from Edom red of garments from Bozrah this one [is] adorned in clothing his [is] stooping in [the] greatness of strength his I [am] speaking in righteousness great to save.
Who is this coming from Edom, from the town of Bozrah with clothes stained crimson? Who is this wearing robes of splendor, leaning forward in his great strength as he marches? It is me, the one who always speaks goodness and truth, the one who has the power to save.
2 Why? [does] redness [belong] to clothing your and [are] garments? your like [one who] treads in a winepress.
Why are your clothes red, like you've been treading grapes in a winepress?
3 [the] winepress - I have trodden to alone me and from peoples not anyone [was] with me and I trod them in anger my and I trampled them in rage my and it spattered blood their on garments my and all clothes my I have defiled.
I've been treading the winepress by myself; from the nations around no one came to help me. So in my anger I trod them down as if they were grapes, in my fury I trampled them. It's their blood that has stained my clothes.
4 For a day of vengeance [was] in heart my and [the] year of redemption my it had come.
For I decided this was the day of my vengeance; the year of my redemption has come.
5 And I may look and there not [was] a helper and I may be appalled and there not [was] a sustainer and it gave victory to me arm my and rage my it it sustained me.
I looked around, but no one came to help; I was shocked that there was no one to assist me. So I saved them through my own strength alone, and my own anger kept me going.
6 And I may tread down peoples in anger my and I made drunk them in rage my so I may bring down to the ground blood their.
I trampled down the nations in my anger; in my fury I made them drunk, and spilled their blood upon the ground.
7 [the] covenant loyalti of Yahweh - I will bring to remembrance [the] praises of Yahweh as on all that he has dealt out to us Yahweh and [the] greatness of goodness to [the] house of Israel which he has dealt out to them according to compassion his and according to [the] greatness of covenant loyalti his.
I want to tell everyone about the Lord's trustworthy love. I will praise the Lord for everything he's done for us—all the good things he has done for the descendants of Israel because of his kindness and his infinite trustworthy love.
8 And he said surely [are] people my they children [who] not they will deal falsely and he became of them a deliverer.
He said, “Aren't they my people, children who wouldn't lie to me?” So he became their Savior.
9 In all distress their - ([belonged] to him *Q(K)*) distress and [the] angel of presence his it saved them in love his and in mercy his he he redeemed them and he lifted up them and he carried them all [the] days of antiquity.
He suffered with them in all their suffering, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and kindness he redeemed them. He picked them up and carried them all throughout those years long ago.
10 And they they rebelled and they grieved [the] spirit of holiness his and he changed himself of them into an enemy he he fought against them.
But they rebelled against him, and caused his Holy Spirit grief, so to them he became like an enemy and he fought against them.
11 And it remembered [the] days of antiquity Moses people his where? - [is] who brought up them from [the] sea with [the] shepherds of flock his where? [is] the [one who] put in midst its [the] spirit of holiness his.
Then they thought back to the days of old when Moses led his people out of Egypt. They shouted out, “Where is the one who took Israel through the sea, along with the shepherds of his flock? Where is the one who placed his Holy Spirit among his people?
12 [who] caused to go To [the] right [hand] of Moses [the] arm of splendor his [who] split open [the] waters from before them to make for himself a name of perpetuity.
Where is the one who lifted Moses' right hand, and who used his amazing power to divided the sea in front of them, giving him such a wonderful, enduring reputation?
13 [who] caused to walk Them in the deeps like horse in the wilderness not they stumbled.
Where is the one who led them through the depths of the sea?” They were like a horse running through the desert, they didn't stumble.
14 Like livestock [which] in the valley it goes down [the] spirit of Yahweh it gave rest it so you led people your to make for yourself a name of splendor.
Like cattle descending into a valley, the Lord's Spirit gave them rest. This is how you led your people, earning a glorious reputation for yourself.
15 Look from heaven and see from [the] lofty abode of holiness your and splendor your where? [are] zeal your and mighty deeds your [the] tumult of inward parts your and compassion your to me they have restrained themselves.
Lord, look down on us from heaven! Watch from your high home, in your holiness and glory! Where is your enthusiasm and power? You're not showing me your feelings of sympathy and kindness!
16 For you [are] father our for Abraham not he knows us and Israel not he acknowledges us you O Yahweh [are] father our [is] redeemer our from long ago name your.
But you are still our Father, even though Abraham wouldn't know us and Israel wouldn't acknowledge us. You, Lord, are our Father; you have always been called our Redeemer from long ago.
17 Why? do you make wander us O Yahweh from ways your do you harden? heart our from fear of you return for [the] sake of servants your [the] tribes of inheritance your.
Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways, and make us stubborn so we don't respect you? Come back to us for the sake of your servants, the tribes that belong to you.
18 For little while they possessed [the] people of holiness your opponents our they have trodden down sanctuary your.
Your Temple belonged to us for a little while, but then our enemies invaded and destroyed it.
19 We have been from long ago not you ruled over them not it was called name your on them
We were yours from ancient times, but we've ended up like people you've never ruled, never identified as yours.
