The Lord Judges His People

63 Who is this coming from Edom [34:5],
    from the city of Bozrah, ·dressed in red [or in crimson-stained garments; C Edom means “red”]?
Who is this dressed in ·fine clothes [honorable clothing; or royal garments]
    and marching forward with his great power?

He says, “I, the Lord, speak ·what is right [in righteousness].
I ·have the power [am mighty] to save you.”

Someone asks, “Why are your clothes bright red
as if you had ·walked [stomped; trodden] on the grapes to make wine?”

The Lord answers, “I have ·walked [stomped; trodden] in the winepress alone,
    and no one among the nations ·helped [L was with] me.
I was angry and ·walked [stomped; trod] on the nations
    and crushed them because of my anger.
Blood splashed on my clothes,
    and I stained all my clothing.
