Isaiah 63
Big screen- 1Who is this that comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
- 2Wherefore are you red in yours apparel, and your garments like him that treads in the winepress?
- 3I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
- 4For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed has come.
- 5And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
- 6And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
- 7I will mention the loving kindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
- 8For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
- 9In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
- 10But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
- 11Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?
- 12That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
- 13That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
- 14As a beast goes down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so did you lead your people, to make yourself a glorious name.
- 15Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory: where is your zeal and your strength, the sounding of your bowels and of your mercies toward me? are they restrained?
- 16Doubtless you are our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: you, O LORD, are our father, our redeemer; your name is from everlasting.
- 17O LORD, why have you made us to go astray from your ways, and hardened our heart from your fear? Return for your servants' sake, the tribes of yours inheritance.
- 18The people of your holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary.
- 19We are yours: you never bare rule over them; they were not called by your name.
