Isaiah 63:1-3

The Lord's Day of Vengeance

1 Who is this who comes from l Edom,
in crimsoned garments from l Bozrah,
he who is splendid in his apparel,
m marching in the greatness of his strength?
"It is I, speaking in righteousness,
mighty to save."

2 Why is your n apparel red,
and your garments like his o who treads in the winepress?

3 p "I have trodden the winepress alone,
q and from the peoples no one was with me;
I trod them in my anger
and trampled them in my wrath;
their lifeblood 1 spattered on my garments,
and stained all my apparel.
