Ésaïe 63

63

Who is this that cometh{H935} from Edom,{H123} with dyed{H2556} garments{H899} from Bozrah?{H1224} this that is glorious{H1921} in his apparel,{H3830} marching{H6808} in the greatness{H7230} of his strength?{H3581} I that speak{H1696} in righteousness,{H6666} mighty{H7227} to save.{H3467}

2

Wherefore art thou red{H122} in thine apparel,{H3830} and thy garments{H899} like him that treadeth{H1869} in the winevat?{H1660}

3

I have trodden{H1869} the winepress{H6333} alone; and of the peoples{H5971} there was no{H376} man with me: yea, I trod{H1869} them in mine anger,{H639} and trampled{H7429} them in my wrath;{H2534} and their lifeblood{H5332} is sprinkled{H5137} upon my garments,{H899} and I have stained{H1351} all my raiment.{H4403}

4

For the day{H3117} of vengeance{H5359} was in my heart,{H3820} and the year{H8141} of my redeemed{H1350} is come.{H935}

5

And I looked,{H5027} and there was none to help;{H5826} and I wondered{H8074} that there was none to uphold:{H5564} therefore mine own arm{H2220} brought salvation{H3467} unto me; and my wrath,{H2534} it upheld{H5564} me.

6

And I trod down{H947} the peoples{H5971} in mine anger,{H639} and made them drunk{H7937} in my wrath,{H2534} and I poured{H3381} out their lifeblood{H5332} on the earth.{H776}

7

I will make mention{H2142} of the lovingkindnesses{H2617} of Jehovah,{H3068} and the praises{H8416} of Jehovah,{H3068} according to all that Jehovah{H3068} hath bestowed{H1580} on us, and the great{H7227} goodness{H2898} toward the house{H1004} of Israel,{H3478} which he hath bestowed{H1580} on them according to his mercies,{H7356} and according to the multitude{H7230} of his lovingkindnesses.{H2617}

8

For he said,{H559} Surely, they are my people,{H5971} children{H1121} that will not deal falsely:{H8266} so he was their Saviour.{H3467}

9

In all their affliction{H6869} he was afflicted,{H6862} and the angel{H4397} of his presence{H6440} saved{H3467} them: in his love{H160} and in his pity{H2551} he redeemed{H1350} them; and he bare{H5190} them, and carried{H5375} them all the days{H3117} of old.{H5769}

10

But they rebelled,{H4784} and grieved{H6087} his holy{H6944} Spirit:{H7307} therefore he was turned{H2015} to be their enemy,{H341} [and] himself fought{H3898} against them.

11

Then he remembered{H2142} the days{H3117} of old,{H5769} Moses{H4872} [and] his people,{H5971} [saying], Where is he that brought them up{H5927} out of the sea{H3220} with the shepherds{H7462} of his flock?{H6629} where is he that put{H7760} his holy{H6944} Spirit{H7307} in the midst{H7130} of them?

12

that caused his glorious{H8597} arm{H2220} to go{H3212} at the right hand{H3225} of Moses?{H4872} that divided{H1234} the waters{H4325} before{H6440} them, to make{H6213} himself an everlasting{H5769} name?{H8034}

13

that led{H3212} them through the depths,{H8415} as a horse{H5483} in the wilderness,{H4057} so that they stumbled{H3782} not?

14

As the cattle{H929} that go down{H3381} into the valley,{H1237} the Spirit{H7307} of Jehovah{H3068} caused them to rest;{H5117} so didst thou lead{H5090} thy people,{H5971} to make{H6213} thyself a glorious{H8597} name.{H8034}

15

Look{H7200} down{H5027} from heaven,{H8064} and behold{H7200} from the habitation{H2073} of thy holiness{H6944} and of thy glory:{H8597} where are thy zeal{H7068} and thy mighty{H1369} acts? the yearning{H1995} of thy heart{H4578} and thy compassions are restrained{H662} toward me.

16

For{H3588} thou art our Father,{H1} though Abraham{H85} knoweth{H3808} us not, and Israel{H3478} doth not acknowledge{H5234} us: thou, O Jehovah,{H3068} art our Father;{H1} our Redeemer{H1350} from everlasting{H5769} is thy name.{H8034}

17

O Jehovah,{H3068} why dost thou make us to err{H8582} from thy ways,{H1870} and hardenest{H7188} our heart{H3820} from thy fear?{H3374} Return{H7725} for thy servants'{H5650} sake, the tribes{H7626} of thine inheritance.{H5159}

18

Thy holy{H6944} people{H5971} possessed{H3423} [it] but a little while:{H4705} our adversaries{H6862} have trodden down{H947} thy sanctuary.{H4720}

19

We are become as they over whom thou never{H5769} barest rule,{H4910} as they that were not called{H7121} by thy name.{H8034}
