NKJV Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New King James VersionInternational Standard Version
1Who is this who comes from Edom, With dyed garments from Bozrah, This One who is glorious in His apparel, Traveling in the greatness of His strength?— “I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”1"Who is this coming from Edom, from Bozrah, in garments stained crimson? Who is this, robed in such splendor, marching in his great might? It is I, speaking in vindication, mighty to save.
2Why is Your apparel red, And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?2"Why is your clothing red, and your garments like those worn by the ones who tread in the winepress?
3“I have trodden the winepress alone, And from the peoples no one was with Me. For I have trodden them in My anger, And trampled them in My fury; Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments, And I have stained all My robes.3"I have trodden the winepress alone, and from my people no one was with me, I trampled them in my anger and trod them down in my wrath; their lifeblood spattered on my garments, and I stained all my clothing.
4For the day of vengeance is in My heart, And the year of My redeemed has come.4"For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year for my redeeming work had come.
5I looked, but there was no one to help, And I wondered That there was no one to uphold; Therefore My own arm brought salvation for Me; And My own fury, it sustained Me.5I looked, but there was no helper, I was appalled that there was no one to give support; so my own arm brought me victory, and as for my wrath, it supported me.
6I have trodden down the peoples in My anger, Made them drunk in My fury, And brought down their strength to the earth.”6I trampled people in my anger; in my wrath I made them drunk and I poured out their lifeblood on the ground."
7I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD And the praises of the LORD, According to all that the LORD has bestowed on us, And the great goodness toward the house of Israel, Which He has bestowed on them according to His mercies, According to the multitude of His lovingkindnesses.7I will recount the gracious deeds of the LORD, the praiseworthy acts of the LORD, according to all the LORD has done for us— yes, the great goodness to the house of Israel that he has granted them according to his mercy, according to the abundance of his gracious love.
8For He said, “Surely they are My people, Children who will not lie.” So He became their Savior.8For he said, "Surely they are my people, children who won't act falsely." And so he became their savior.
9In 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 bore them and carried them All the days of old.9In all their distress he wasn't distressed, but the angel of his presence saved them; in his acts of love and in his acts of pity he redeemed them; he carried them and lifted them up all the days of old.
10But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit; So He turned Himself against them as an enemy, And He fought against them.10Yet they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit; so he changed and became their enemy, and he himself fought against them.
11Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people, saying: “Where is He who brought them up out of the sea With the shepherd of His flock? Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within them,11Then they remembered the days of old, of Moses his servant. Where is the one who brought up out of the sea the shepherds of his flock? Where is the one who put his Holy Spirit among them,
12Who led them by the right hand of Moses, With His glorious arm, Dividing the water before them To make for Himself an everlasting name,12and who made his glorious arm march at Moses' right hand, who divided the waters in front of them to win an everlasting name,
13Who led them through the deep, As a horse in the wilderness, That they might not stumble?”13who led them through the depths? Like a horse in the open desert, they did not stumble;
14As a beast goes down into the valley, And the Spirit of the LORD causes him to rest, So You lead Your people, To make Yourself a glorious name.14like cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest. For you led your people, to win for yourself a glorious name.
15Look down from heaven, And see from Your habitation, holy and glorious. Where are Your zeal and Your strength, The yearning of Your heart and Your mercies toward me? Are they restrained?15Look down from heaven, and see from your holy and glorious dwelling. Where are your zeal and your might? Where are the yearning of your heart and your compassion? They are held back from me.
16Doubtless You are our Father, Though Abraham was ignorant of us, And Israel does not acknowledge us. You, O LORD, are our Father; Our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.16But you are our Father, even Abraham does not know us and Israel has not acknowledged us; you are he, O LORD, our Father, from long ago, 'Our Redeemer' is your name.
17O LORD, why have You made us stray from Your ways, And hardened our heart from Your fear? Return for Your servants’ sake, The tribes of Your inheritance.17Why, LORD, do you make us wander from your ways and harden our hearts, so that we do not fear you? Turn back for the sake of your servants, for the sake of the tribes that are your heritage.
18Your holy people have possessed it but a little while; Our adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.18Your holy people took possession for a little while, but now our enemies have trampled down your sanctuary.
19We have become like those of old, over whom You never ruled, Those who were never called by Your name.19For a long time we have been those you do not rule, those who are not called by your name.
