bbe @Isaiah:63:1 @Who is this who comes from Edom , with blood-red robes from Bozrah ? he whose clothing is fair , stepping with pride in his great strength ? I whose glory is in the right , strong for salvation . bbe @Isaiah:63:2 @Why is your clothing red , and why are your robes like those of one who is crushing the grapes ? bbe @Isaiah:63:3 @I have been crushing the grapes by myself , and of the peoples there was no man with me : in my wrath and in my passion , they were crushed under my feet ; and my robes are marked with their life-blood , and all my clothing is red . bbe @Isaiah:63:4 @For the day of punishment is in my heart , and the year for the payment of the price for my people has come . bbe @Isaiah:63:5 @And I saw that there was no helper , and I was wondering that no one gave them support : so my arm did the work of salvation , and my wrath was my support . bbe @Isaiah:63:6 @And in my passion the peoples were crushed under my feet , and broken in my wrath , and I put down their strength to the earth . bbe @Isaiah:63:7 @I will give news of the mercies of the Lord , and his great acts , even all the things the Lord has done for us , in his great grace to the house of Israel ; even all he has done for us in his unnumbered mercies . bbe @Isaiah:63:8 @For he said , Truly they are my people , children who will not be false : so he was their saviour out of all their trouble . bbe @Isaiah:63:9 @It was no sent one or angel , but he himself who was their saviour : in his love and in his pity he took up their cause , and he took them in his arms , caring for them all through the years . bbe @Isaiah:63:10 @But they went against him , causing grief to his holy spirit : so he was turned against them , and made war on them . bbe @Isaiah:63:11 @Then the early days came to their minds , the days of Moses his servant : and they said , Where is he who made the keeper of his flock come up from the sea ? where is he who put his holy spirit among them , bbe @Isaiah:63:12 @He who made the arm of his glory go at the right hand of Moses , by whom the waters were parted before them , to make himself an eternal name ; bbe @Isaiah:63:13 @He who made them go through the deep waters , like a horse in the waste land ? bbe @Isaiah:63:14 @Like the cattle which go down into the valley , they went without falling , the spirit of the Lord guiding them : so you went before your people , to make yourself a great name . bbe @Isaiah:63:15 @Let your eyes be looking down from heaven , from your holy and beautiful house : where is your deep feeling , the working of your power ? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies : bbe @Isaiah:63:16 @For you are our father , though Abraham has no knowledge of us , and Israel gives no thought to us : you , O Lord , are our father ; from the earliest days you have taken up our cause . bbe @Isaiah:63:17 @O Lord , why do you send us wandering from your ways , making our hearts hard , so that we have no fear of you ? Come back , because of your servants , the tribes of your heritage . bbe @Isaiah:63:18 @Why have evil men gone over your holy place , so that it has been crushed under the feet of our haters ? bbe @Isaiah:63:19 @We have become as those who were never ruled by you , on whom your name was not named .
