1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. 2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat? 3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment. 4 For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come. 5 And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me. 6 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.
7 I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses. 8 For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour. 9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
10 But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them. 11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him? 12 That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name? 13 That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble? 14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.
15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained? 16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.
17 O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, and hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants’ sake, the tribes of thine inheritance. 18 The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary. 19 We are thine: thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.
1 那从以东、从波斯拉而来, 身穿赤红色的衣服, 装扮华丽、能力强大、大步前行的, 是谁呢?"就是我, 是凭着公义说话, 有大能拯救的。"
2 你的服装为什么有红色的呢?你的衣服为什么像个踹压酒池的人的衣服一样呢?
3 "我独自踹酒槽; 万民之中没有一人与我同在; 我在忿怒中把他们踹下, 在烈怒中把他们践踏; 他们的血溅在我的衣服上, 我把我所有的衣裳都染污了。
4 因为报仇的日子早已在我的心里, 我救赎的年日早已经来到。
5 我观看, 但没有人帮助; 我诧异, 因没有人扶持; 所以我用自己的膀臂为我施行了拯救, 我的烈怒扶持了我,
6 我在忿怒中践踏万民, 在烈怒中使他们沉醉, 又把他们的血倒在地上。"
7 我照着耶和华为我们所作的一切, 提说耶和华的慈爱, 耶和华可称颂的事, 和他赐给以色列家的大福, 就是照着他的怜悯和丰盛的慈爱为他们作成的。
8 他曾说: "他们真是我的子民, 不行虚假的儿子", 于是, 在他们的一切苦难中, 他就作了他们的拯救者。
9 他不再是敌对者, 并且他面前的使者拯救了他们。他以自己的爱和怜悯救赎了他们; 在古时的一切日子, 他背负他们, 怀抱他们。
10 可是, 他们竟然悖逆, 使他的圣灵忧伤; 所以他转作他们的仇敌, 亲自攻击他们。
11 那时, 他们想起古时的日子, 就是摩西和他的人民的日子, 说: 那把人民和他羊群的牧者从海里领上来的, 在哪里呢?那把自己的圣灵降在他们中间的, 在哪里呢?
12 那使自己荣耀的膀臂在摩西的右边行走, 那在他们面前把水分开, 为要建立永远的名的, 他在哪里呢?
13 那带领他们走过深海, 像马走过旷野一样, 使他们不致跌倒的, 在哪里呢?
14 耶和华的灵使他们得了安息, 好像牲畜下到山谷; 你也这样引导你的人民, 为要建立荣耀的名。
15 求你从天上垂顾, 从你圣洁、荣耀的居所观看。你的热心和你的大能在哪里呢?你爱心的同情和怜悯向我止住了。
16 亚伯拉罕虽然不认识我们, 以色列也不承认我们, 但你是我们的父。耶和华啊! 你是我们的父, 从亘古以来, 你的名字就是"我们的救赎主"。
17 耶和华啊! 你为什么使我们走错, 离开你的道路?使我们的心刚硬, 不敬畏你呢?求你为你众仆人的缘故, 为你产业的各支派的缘故, 回心转意吧!
18 你的圣民不过暂时得着你的圣所, 我们的敌人已经践踏了你的圣所。
19 我们成了好像你从未治理过的人, 又像未曾得称为你名下的人。
