Isaiah 63
NASB

Isaiah 63


God’s Vengeance on the Nations

Tools
1
Who is this who comes from (A)Edom,
With (B)garments of (a)glowing colors from (C)Bozrah,
This One who is majestic in His apparel,
(b)Marching in the greatness of His strength?
“It is I who speak in righteousness, (D)mighty to save.”
Tools
2
Why is Your apparel red,
And Your garments like the one who (E)treads in the wine press?
Tools
3
“(F)I have trodden the wine trough alone,
And from the peoples there was no man with Me.
I also (G)trod them in My anger
And (H)trampled them in My wrath;
And (I)their (c)lifeblood is sprinkled on My garments,
And I (d)stained all My raiment.
Tools
4
“For the (J)day of vengeance was in My heart,
And My year of redemption has come.
Tools
5
“I looked, and there was (K)no one to help,
And I was astonished and there was no one to uphold;
So My (L)own arm brought salvation to Me,
And My wrath upheld Me.
Tools
6
“I (M)trod down the peoples in My anger
And made them (N)drunk in My wrath,
And I (e)poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”

God’s Ancient Mercies Recalled

Tools
7
I shall make mention of the (O)lovingkindnesses of the Lord, the praises of the Lord,
According to all that the Lord has granted us,
And the great (P)goodness toward the house of Israel,
Which He has granted them according to His (Q)compassion
And according to the abundance of His lovingkindnesses.
Tools
8
For He said, “Surely, they are (R)My people,
Sons who will not deal falsely.”
So He became their (S)Savior.
Tools
9
In all their affliction (f)(T)He was afflicted,
And the (U)angel of His presence saved them;
In His (V)love and in His mercy He (W)redeemed them,
And He (X)lifted them and carried them all the days of old.
Tools
10
But they (Y)rebelled
And grieved His (Z)Holy Spirit;
Therefore He turned Himself to become their enemy,
He fought against them.
Tools
11
Then (AA)His people remembered the days of old, of Moses.
Where is (AB)He who brought them up out of the sea with the (g)shepherds of His flock?
Where is He who (AC)put His Holy Spirit in the midst of (h)them,
Tools
12
Who caused His (AD)glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses,
Who (AE)divided the waters before them to make for Himself an everlasting name,
Tools
13
Who led them through the depths?
Like the horse in the wilderness, they did not (AF)stumble;
Tools
14
As the cattle which go down into the valley,
The Spirit of the (AG)Lord gave (i)them rest.
So You (AH)led Your people,
To make for Yourself a glorious name.

ÒYou Are Our FatherÓ

Tools
15
(AI)Look down from heaven and see from Your holy and glorious (AJ)habitation;
Where are Your (AK)zeal and Your mighty deeds?
The (AL)stirrings of Your heart and Your compassion are restrained toward me.
Tools
16
For You are our (AM)Father, though (AN)Abraham does not know us
And Israel does not recognize us.
You, O Lord, are our Father,
Our (AO)Redeemer from of old is Your name.
Tools
17
Why, O Lord, do You (AP)cause us to stray from Your ways
And (AQ)harden our heart from fearing You?
(AR)Return for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.
Tools
18
Your holy people possessed Your sanctuary for a little while,
Our adversaries have (AS)trodden it down.
Tools
19
We have become like those over whom You have never ruled,
Like those who were not called by Your name.
