Who is this that cometh
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.

Wherefore art thou red
in thine apparel,
and thy garments
like him that treadeth
in the winefat?
I 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.

For the day
of vengeance
is in mine heart,
and the year
of my redeemed
is come.
And 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.

And 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.
I will mention
the lovingkindnesses
of the LORD,
and the praises
of the LORD,
according to all that the LORD
hath bestowed
on us, and the great
goodness
toward the house
of Israel,
which he hath bestowed
on them according to his mercies,
and according to the multitude
of his lovingkindnesses.
For he said,
Surely they are my people,
children
that will not lie:
so he was their Saviour.
In 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.

But they rebelled,
and vexed
his holy
Spirit:
therefore he was turned
to be their enemy,
and he fought
against them.
Then 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?
That led
them by the right hand
of Moses
with his glorious
arm,
dividing
the water
before
them, to make
himself an everlasting
name?
That led
them through the deep,
as an horse
in the wilderness,
that they should not stumble?
As a beast
goeth down
into the valley,
the Spirit
of the LORD
caused him to rest:
so didst thou lead
thy people,
to make
thyself a glorious
name.

Look down
from heaven,
and behold
from the habitation
of thy holiness
and of thy glory:
where is thy zeal
and thy strength,
the sounding
of thy bowels
and of thy mercies
toward me? are they restrained?
Doubtless
thou art our father,
though Abraham
be ignorant
of us, and Israel
acknowledge
us not: thou, O LORD,
art our father,
our redeemer;
thy name
is from everlasting.
O LORD,
why hast thou made us to err
from thy ways,
and hardened
our heart
from thy fear?
Return
for thy servants'
sake, the tribes
of thine inheritance.
The people
of thy holiness
have possessed
it but a little while:
our adversaries
have trodden down
thy sanctuary.
We are thine: thou never
barest rule
over them; they were not called
by thy name.
