1. Who is this who comes from Edom, dressed in bright red, coming from Bozrah? Who is this one wearing royal attire, who marches confidently because of his great strength? "It is I, the one who announces vindication, and who is able to deliver!"
|
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. Why are your clothes red? Why do you look like someone who has stomped on grapes in a vat?
|
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. "I have stomped grapes in the winepress all by myself; no one from the nations joined me. I stomped on them in my anger; I trampled them down in my rage. Their juice splashed on my garments, and stained all my clothes.
|
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. For I looked forward to the day of vengeance, and then payback time arrived.
|
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, but there was no one to help; I was shocked because there was no one offering support. So my right arm accomplished deliverance; my raging anger drove me on.
|
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. I trampled nations in my anger, I made them drunk in my rage, I splashed 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 of the faithful acts of the LORD, of the LORD's praiseworthy deeds. I will tell about all the LORD did for us, the many good things he did for the family of Israel, because of his compassion and great faithfulness.
|
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, "Certainly they will be my people, children who are not disloyal." He became their deliverer.
|
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. Through all that they suffered, he suffered too. The messenger sent from his very presence delivered them. In his love and mercy he protected them; he lifted them up and carried them throughout ancient times.
|
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 rebelled and offended his holy Spirit, so he turned into an enemy and 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. His people remembered the ancient times. Where is the one who brought them up out of the sea, along with the shepherd of his flock? Where is the one who placed 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. the one who made his majestic power available to Moses, who divided the water before them, gaining for himself a lasting reputation,
|
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 them through the deep water? Like a horse running on flat land they 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 an animal that goes down into a valley to graze, so the Spirit of the LORD granted them rest. In this way you guided your people, gaining for yourself an honored reputation.
|
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. Look down from heaven and take notice, from your holy, majestic palace! Where are your zeal and power? Do not hold back your tender compassion!
|
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. For you are our father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not recognize us. You, LORD, are our father; you have been called our protector from ancient times.
|
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. Why, LORD, do you make us stray from your ways, and make our minds stubborn so that we do not obey you? Return for the sake of your servants, the tribes of your inheritance!
|
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. For a short time your special nation possessed a land, but then our adversaries knocked down your holy sanctuary.
|
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 existed from ancient times, but you did not rule over them, they were not your subjects.
|
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 .
