א. |
| 2. Why is Your clothing red, and your attire like [that of] one who trod in a wine press? |
|
ב. |
| 3. "A wine press I trod alone, and from the peoples, none was with Me; and I trod them with My wrath, and I trampled them with My fury, and their life blood sprinkled on My garments, and all My clothing I soiled. |
|
ג. |
| 4. For a day of vengeance was in My heart, and the year of My redemption has arrived. |
|
ד. |
| 5. And I looked and there was no one helping, and I was astounded and there was no one supporting, and My arm saved for Me, and My fury-that supported Me. |
|
ה. |
| 6. And I trod peoples with My wrath, and I intoxicated them with My fury, and I brought their power down to the earth." |
|
ו. |
| 7. The kind acts of the Lord I will mention, the praises of the Lord, according to all that the Lord bestowed upon us, and much good to the house of Israel, which He bestowed upon them according to His mercies and according to His many kind acts. |
|
ז. |
| 8. And He said, "They are but My people, children who will not deal falsely." And He became their Savior. |
|
ח. |
| 9. In all their trouble, He did not trouble [them], and the angel of His presence saved them; with His love and with His pity He redeemed them, and He bore them, and He carried them all the days of old. |
|
ט. |
| 10. But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit, and He was turned to be their enemy; He fought with them. |
|
י. |
| 11. And His people remembered the days of old, [the days of] Moses; where is he who drew them up from the sea, [like] a shepherd His flock; where is he who placed within them His Holy Spirit? |
|
יא. |
| 12. He led at Moses' right the arm of His glory, splitting the water before them to make for Himself an everlasting name. |
|
יב. |
| 13. He led them in the depths like a horse in the desert; they did not stumble. |
|

| 14. As animals spread out in a valley, the spirit of the Lord guided them, so You guided Your people to make You a glorious name. |
|
יד. |
| 15. Look from heaven and see, the dwelling of Your holiness and Your glory; where are Your zeal and Your mighty deeds? The yearning of Your heart and Your mercy are restrained to me. |
|
טו. |
| 16. For You are our father, for Abraham did not know us, neither did Israel recognize us; You, O Lord, are our father; our redeemer of old is your name. |

טז. |

|
יז. |
| 18. For [but] a short time Your holy people inherited; our adversaries trampled Your sanctuary. |
|
יח. |
| 19. We were [like those] over whom You never ruled, over whom Your name was not called; had You rent the heavens, had You descended, mountains would have dripped from before You. |
