Isaiah 63:2-4

Easy-to-Read Version

² “Why are your clothes bright red?
    They are like the clothes of someone who tramples grapes to make wine.”

³ He answers, “I walked in the winepress by myself.
    No one helped me.
I was angry, and I trampled the grapes.
    The juice^[a] splashed on my clothes, so now they are stained.
⁴ I chose a time to punish people.
    Now the time has come for me to save and protect my people.
