OEB ISA Chapter 63

ISA 63 ©

63‘Who is this who comes from Edom,

in bright-red garments from Bozrah,

so glorious in his apparel,

marching in fullness of strength?’

‘It is I, who have promised deliverance,

I who am mighty to save.’


2‘Why is your raiment so red,

and your garments like his who treads in the wine-press?’

3‘I have trodden the wine-trough alone,

of the nations was no man with me;

so I trod them in my anger,

and trampled them down in my fury;

their life-blood besprinkled my garments,

and all my apparel I stained.


4In my heart was the day of revenge,

and the year of redemption was come.

5I looked with utter amaze –

there was none to help or uphold;

so my own arm, wrought me the victory,

my fury – it upheld me.

6In my anger I trod down the peoples,

in my fury I broke them in pieces:

their life-blood I spilt on the ground.’

Passionate prayer for the divine favour

Thanksgiving for ancient mercies

7The Lord’s renown I would celebrate –

all his loving-kindness –

as befits the deeds that the Lord,

so rich in goodness, has wrought for us,

even for the household of Israel –

wrought for us in his pity

and loving-kindness great.

8‘Surely my people are they,’ he said,

‘sons who will not prove false.’

And so he became their saviour

from all that did distress them.


9No envoy was it or angel,

but his own very presence that saved them:

in his love and in his pity

he did himself redeem them;

he took them up and carried them

all the days of old.

10But as for them, they resisted,

and grieved his holy spirit;

so he turned to be their foe,

and himself did fight against them.


11Then (Israel) remembered

the days of the old time, (and said):

‘Where is he who brought up from the sea

the shepherd of his flock?

And where is he who set

in their midst his holy spirit;

12who caused his glorious arm

to go at the right hand of Moses;

who cleft the waters before them,

to make him a name everlasting;

13 who led them through the depths:

like a wild horse in open country

sure-footed, never stumbling.

14like cattle that descend to the valley,

the Lord’s spirit guiding them to rest.

This was the way you lead your people,

bring glory to your name.’

Passionate entreaty for the devine forgiveness and pity

15Look down from heaven, and behold

from your holy and glorious palace.

Where are your zeal and your prowess,

the voice of your yearning and pity?

16Though Abraham knows us not,

and Israel does not regard us,

yet are you, O Lord, our father,

our redeemer from of old is your name.


17Why do you leave us, Lord,

to wander away from your paths?

And why do you suffer our hearts

to grow hard and strange to your fear?

O return for your servants’ sake,

for the sake of the tribes of your heritage.

18Why do the wicked make light of your holy place?

Why do our enemies tread down your Temple?

19We are grown like those whom you rule no more,

who have never been called by your name.
