The Day of Vengeance
The Prophet’s Question

63 

Who is this coming from Edom, with bright red garments?
Who is this coming from Bozrah, clothed majestically,
marching out[a] with great strength?

The Servant’s Response

It is I, the one who speaks in righteousness.
It is I, the one who is mighty to save.

The Prophet’s Question

Why is your clothing so red?
Why are your garments like those of someone
    who has been trampling grapes in a winepress?

The Servant’s Response

I have trodden the winepress alone,
and from the peoples there was no one with me.
So I stomped on them in my anger,
and I trampled them in my wrath,
and their juice splattered on my garments.
I stained all my clothing.
