For the day of vengeance was in my heart,
    and my year of redemption[a] has come.
I looked, but there was no one to help;
    I was appalled, but there was no one to uphold;
so my own arm brought me victory,
    and my wrath upheld me.
I trod down the peoples in my anger,
    I made them drunk in my wrath,
    and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”

  1. Isaiah 63:4 Or the year of my redeemed

It was for me the day of vengeance;(A)
    the year for me to redeem had come.
I looked, but there was no one(B) to help,
    I was appalled that no one gave support;
so my own arm(C) achieved salvation for me,
    and my own wrath sustained me.(D)
I trampled(E) the nations in my anger;
    in my wrath I made them drunk(F)
    and poured their blood(G) on the ground.”

And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
