Isaiah 63:5 in context

Isaiah 63:2–8

2

Why is your clothing red,

and your garments like him who treads in the wine vat?

3

“I have trodden the wine press alone.

Of the peoples, no one was with me.

Yes, I trod them in my anger

and trampled them in my wrath.

Their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments,

and I have stained all my clothing.

4

For the day of vengeance was in my heart,

and the year of my redeemed has come.

5
Selected verse

I looked, and there was no one to help;

and I wondered that there was no one to uphold.

Therefore my own arm brought salvation to me.

My own wrath upheld me.

6

I trod down the peoples in my anger

and made them drunk in my wrath.

I poured their lifeblood out on the earth.”

7

I will tell of the loving kindnesses of the LORD

and the praises of the LORD,

according to all that the LORD has given to us,

and the great goodness toward the house of Israel,

which he has given to them according to his mercies,

and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

8

For he said, “Surely, they are my people,

children who will not deal falsely;”

so he became their Savior.
