Isaiah 63

¹Who is this coming from Edom,

²Why are Your clothes red,

³“I have trodden the winepress alone,

⁴For the day of vengeance was in My heart,

⁵I looked, but there was no one to help;

⁶I trampled the nations in My anger;

⁷I will make known the LORD’s loving devotion

⁸For He said, “They are surely My people,

⁹In all their distress, He too was afflicted,

¹⁰But they rebelled

¹¹Then His people remembered the days of old,

¹²who sent His glorious arm

¹³who led them through the depths

¹⁴Like cattle going down to the valley,

¹⁵Look down from heaven and see,

¹⁶Yet You are our Father,

¹⁷Why, O LORD, do You make us stray from Your ways

¹⁸For a short while Your people possessed Your holy place,

¹⁹We have become like those You never ruled,
