1
"Who is this that comes from Edom, from Bozrah in garments stained crimson? Who is this so splendidly robed, marching in his great might?" "It is I, announcing vindication, mighty to save."
2
"Why are your robes red, and your garments like theirs who tread the wine press?"
3
"I have trodden the wine press alone, and from the peoples no one was with me; I trod them in my anger and trampled them in my wrath; their juice spattered on my garments, and stained all my robes.
4
For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year for my redeeming work had come.
5
I looked, but there was no helper; I stared, but there was no one to sustain me; so my own arm brought me victory, and my wrath sustained me.
6
I trampled down peoples in my anger, I crushed them in my wrath, and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth."
