    God’s Vengeance on the Nations

    The judgment of Edom typifies God’s judgment of all the nations (see also 34:5–15).
    1Who is this coming from Edom,from Bozrah with crimson-stained garments?Who is this robed in splendor,marching in the greatness of His strength?
    “It is I, proclaiming vindication,†mighty to save.”
    2Why are Your clothes red,and Your garments like one who treads the winepress?
    3“I have trodden the winepress alone,and no one from the nations was with Me.I trampled them in My angerand trod them down in My fury;their blood spattered My garments,and all My clothes were stained.4For the day of vengeance was in My heart,and the year of My redemption had come.5I looked, but there was no one to help;I was appalled that no one assisted.So My arm brought Me salvation,and My own wrath upheld Me.6I trampled the nations in My anger;in My wrath I made them drunkand poured out their blood on the ground.”

    The prophet reflects on Israel’s past, how God showed his unfailing love and how his people alternatively rebelled against him, suffered hardship, returned to the Lord, and experienced his blessing.
    7I will make known the LORD’s loving devotionand His praiseworthy acts,because of all that the LORD has done for us—the many good things for the house of Israelaccording to His great compassion and loving devotion.
    8For He said, “They are surely My people,sons who will not be disloyal.”So He became their Savior.9In all their distress, He too was afflicted,and the Angel of His Presence† saved them.In His love and compassion He redeemed them;He lifted them up and carried themall the days of old.
    10But they rebelledand grieved His Holy Spirit.So He turned and became their enemy,and He Himself fought against them.
    11Then His people remembered the days of old,the days of Moses.Where is He who brought them through the seawith the shepherds of His flock?Where is the One who setHis Holy Spirit among them,12who sent His glorious armto lead them by the right hand of Moses,who divided the waters before themto gain for Himself everlasting renown,13who led them through the depthslike a horse in the wilderness,so that they did not stumble?14Like cattle going down to the valley,the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest.You led Your people this wayto make for Yourself a glorious name.

    A Prayer for Mercy

    The prophet’s reflections on the past (63:7–14) inspire him to pray that God would now rescue his people as he has done before.
    15Look down from heaven and see,from Your holy and glorious habitation.Where are Your zeal and might?Your yearning and compassion for me are restrained.16Yet You are our Father,though Abraham does not know usand Israel does not acknowledge us.You, O LORD, are our Father;our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.
    17Why, O LORD, do You make us stray from Your waysand harden our hearts from fearing You?Return, for the sake of Your servants,the tribes of Your heritage.18For a short while Your people possessed Your holy place,but our enemies have trampled Your sanctuary.19We have become like those You never ruled,like those not called by Your name.
