Isaiah 63  New International Version

“It is I, proclaiming victory,
    mighty to save.”^(E)

² Why are your garments red,
    like those of one treading the winepress?^(F)

³ “I have trodden the winepress^(G) alone;
    from the nations no one was with me.
I trampled^(H) them in my anger
    and trod them down in my wrath;^(I)
their blood spattered my garments,^(J)
    and I stained all my clothing.
⁴ It was for me the day of vengeance;^(K)
    the year for me to redeem had come.
⁵ I looked, but there was no one^(L) to help,
    I was appalled that no one gave support;
so my own arm^(M) achieved salvation for me,
    and my own wrath sustained me.^(N)
6 I trampled^(O) the nations in my anger;
    in my wrath I made them drunk^(P)
    and poured their blood^(Q) on the ground.”

¹¹ Then his people recalled^[b] the days of old,
    the days of Moses and his people—
where is he who brought them through the sea,^(AF)
    with the shepherd of his flock?^(AG)
Where is he who set
    his Holy Spirit^(AH) among them,
¹² who sent his glorious arm^(AI) of power
    to be at Moses’ right hand,
who divided the waters^(AJ) before them,
    to gain for himself everlasting renown,^(AK)
13 who led^(AL) them through the depths?^(AM)
Like a horse in open country,
    they did not stumble;^(AN)
14 like cattle that go down to the plain,
    they were given rest^(AO) by the Spirit of the Lord.
This is how you guided your people
    to make for yourself a glorious name.

¹⁵ Look down from heaven^(AP) and see,
    from your lofty throne,^(AQ) holy and glorious.
Where are your zeal^(AR) and your might?
    Your tenderness and compassion^(AS) are withheld^(AT) from us.
¹⁶ But you are our Father,^(AU)
    though Abraham does not know us
    or Israel acknowledge^(AV) us;
you, Lord, are our Father,
    our Redeemer^(AW) from of old is your name.
¹⁷ Why, Lord, do you make us wander^(AX) from your ways
    and harden our hearts^(AY) so we do not revere^(AZ) you?
Return^(BA) for the sake of your servants,
    the tribes that are your inheritance.^(BB)
18 For a little while^(BC) your people possessed your holy place,
    but now our enemies have trampled^(BD) down your sanctuary.^(BE)
19 We are yours from of old;
    but you have not ruled over them,
    they have not been called^[c] by your name.^(BF)
