1. Who is this coming from Edom, from the city of Bozrah, dressed in red? Who is this dressed in fine clothes and marching forward with his great power? He says, "I, the Lord, speak what is right. I have the power to save you."
|
1. Who H4310 is this H2088 that cometh H935 from Edom H4480 H123 , with dyed H2556 garments H899 from Bozrah H4480 H1224 ? this H2088 that is glorious H1921 in his apparel H3830 , traveling H6808 in the greatness H7230 of his strength H3581 ? I H589 that speak H1696 in righteousness H6666 , mighty H7227 to save H3467 .
|
|
2. Someone asks, "Why are your clothes bright red as if you had walked on the grapes to make wine?"
|
2. Wherefore H4069 art thou red H122 in thine apparel H3830 , and thy garments H899 like him that treadeth H1869 in the wine vat H1660 ?
|
|
3. The Lord answers, "I have walked in the winepress alone, and no one among the nations helped me. I was angry and walked on the nations and crushed them because of my anger. Blood splashed on my clothes, and I stained all my clothing.
|
3. I have trodden H1869 the winepress H6333 alone H905 ; and of the people H4480 H5971 there was none H369 H376 with H854 me : for I will tread H1869 them in mine anger H639 , and trample H7429 them in my fury H2534 ; and their blood H5332 shall be sprinkled H5137 upon H5921 my garments H899 , and I will stain H1351 all H3605 my raiment H4403 .
|
|
4. I chose a time to punish people, and the time has come for me to save.
|
4. For H3588 the day H3117 of vengeance H5359 is in mine heart H3820 , and the year H8141 of my redeemed H1350 is come H935 .
|
|
5. I looked around, but I saw no one to help me. I was surprised that no one supported me. So I used my own power to save my people; my own anger supported me.
|
5. And I looked H5027 , and there was none H369 to help H5826 ; and I wondered H8074 that there was none H369 to uphold H5564 : therefore mine own arm H2220 brought salvation H3467 unto me ; and my fury H2534 , it H1931 upheld H5564 me.
|
|
6. While I was angry, I walked on the nations. In my anger I punished them and poured their blood on the ground."
|
6. And I will tread down H947 the people H5971 in mine anger H639 , and make them drunk H7937 in my fury H2534 , and I will bring down H3381 their strength H5332 to the earth H776 .
|
|
7. I will tell about the Lord's kindness and praise him for everything he has done. and for his goodness to the people of Israel. He has shown great mercy to us and has been very kind to us.
|
7. I will mention H2142 the lovingkindnesses H2617 of the LORD H3068 , and the praises H8416 of the LORD H3068 , according H5921 to all H3605 that H834 the LORD H3068 hath bestowed H1580 on us , and the great H7227 goodness H2898 toward the house H1004 of Israel H3478 , which H834 he hath bestowed H1580 on them according to his mercies H7356 , and according to the multitude H7230 of his lovingkindnesses H2617 .
|
|
8. He said, "These are my people; my children will not lie to me." So he saved them.
|
8. For he said H559 , Surely H389 they H1992 are my people H5971 , children H1121 that will not H3808 lie H8266 : so he was H1961 their Savior H3467 .
|
|
9. When they suffered, he suffered also. He sent his own angel to save them. Because of his love and kindness, he saved them. Since long ago he has picked them up and carried them.
|
9. In all H3605 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 H1931 redeemed H1350 them ; and he bore H5190 them , and carried H5375 them all H3605 the days H3117 of old H5769 .
|
|
10. But they turned against him and made his Holy Spirit very sad. So he became their enemy, and he fought against them.
|
10. But they H1992 rebelled H4784 , and vexed H6087 H853 his Holy H6944 Spirit H7307 : therefore he was turned H2015 to be their enemy H341 , and he H1931 fought H3898 against them.
|
|
11. But then his people remembered what happened long ago, in the days of Moses and the Israelites with him. Where is the Lord who brought the people through the sea, with the leaders of his people? Where is the one who put his Holy Spirit among them,
|
11. Then he remembered H2142 the days H3117 of old H5769 , Moses H4872 , and his people H5971 , saying , Where H346 is he that brought them up H5927 out of the sea H4480 H3220 with H854 the shepherd H7462 of his flock H6629 ? where H346 is he that put H7760 H853 his Holy H6944 Spirit H7307 within H7130 him?
|
|
12. who led Moses by the right hand with his wonderful power, who divided the water before them to make his name famous forever,
|
12. That led H1980 them by the right hand H3225 of Moses H4872 with his glorious H8597 arm H2220 , dividing H1234 the water H4325 before H4480 H6440 them , to make H6213 himself an everlasting H5769 name H8034 ?
|
|
13. who led the people through the deep waters? Like a horse walking through a desert, the people did not stumble.
|
13. That led H1980 them through the deep H8415 , as a horse H5483 in the wilderness H4057 , that they should not H3808 stumble H3782 ?
|
|
14. Like cattle that go down to the valley, the Spirit of the Lord gave the people a place to rest. Lord, that is the way you led your people, and by this you won for yourself wonderful fame.
|
14. As a beast H929 goeth down H3381 into the valley H1237 , the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 caused him to rest H5117 : so H3651 didst thou lead H5090 thy people H5971 , to make H6213 thyself a glorious H8597 name H8034 .
|
|
15. Lord, look down from the heavens and see; look at us from your wonderful and holy home in heaven. Where is your strong love and power? Why are you keeping your love and mercy from us?
|
15. Look down H5027 from heaven H4480 H8064 , and behold H7200 from the habitation H4480 H2073 of thy holiness H6944 and of thy glory H8597 : where H346 is thy zeal H7068 and thy strength H1369 , the sounding H1995 of thy bowels H4578 and of thy mercies H7356 toward H413 me? are they restrained H662 ?
|
|
16. You are our father. Abraham doesn't know we are his children, and Israel doesn't recognize us. Lord, you are our father. You are called "the one who has always saved us."
|
16. Doubtless H3588 thou H859 art our father H1 , though H3588 Abraham H85 be ignorant H3808 H3045 of us , and Israel H3478 acknowledge H5234 us not H3808 : thou H859 , O LORD H3068 , art our father H1 , our redeemer H1350 ; thy name H8034 is from everlasting H4480 H5769 .
|
|
17. Lord, why are you making us wander from your ways? Why do you make us stubborn so that we don't honor you? For our sake come back to us, your servants, who belong to you.
|
17. O LORD H3068 , why H4100 hast thou made us to err H8582 from thy ways H4480 H1870 , and hardened H7188 our heart H3820 from thy fear H4480 H3374 ? Return H7725 for thy servants' sake H4616 H5650 , the tribes H7626 of thine inheritance H5159 .
|
|
18. Your people had your Temple for a while, but now our enemies have walked on your holy place and crushed it.
|
18. The people H5971 of thy holiness H6944 have possessed H3423 it but a little while H4705 : our adversaries H6862 have trodden down H947 thy sanctuary H4720 .
|
|
19. We have become like people you never ruled over, like those who have never worn your name.
|
19. We are H1961 thine : thou never H3808 H4480 H5769 didst bear rule H4910 over them ; they were not H3808 called H7121 by H5921 thy name H8034 .
