Isaías 63
Catholic Public Domain Version
1Who is this, who arrives from Edom with dyed garments from Bozrah? This is the Handsome One in his robe, advancing by the fullness of his strength. It is I, the Speaker of Justice, and I am the Fighter for Salvation.
2So then, why is your garment red, and why are your vestments like the ones of those who tread the winepress?
3I have trod the winepress alone. And among the nations, there is no man beside me. I have trampled on them in my fury, and I have tread them down in my wrath. And so, their blood has been sprinkled on my vestments, and I have stained all my garments.
4For the day of vengeance is in my heart. The year of my redemption has arrived.
5I gazed around, and there was no one to assist. I sought, and there was no one who would help. And so, my own arm has saved for me, and my own wrath itself has assisted me.
6And I have trampled the peoples in my fury, and I have inebriated them with my indignation, and I have torn down their strength to the ground.
7I will remember the compassion of the Lord, the praise of the Lord over all that the Lord has bestowed on us, and over the multitude of his good things for the house of Israel, which he has granted to them according to his leniency, and according to the multitude of his mercies.
8And he said: “Yet truly, these are my people, sons who have not been disowned.” And he became their Savior.
9Throughout all their tribulation, he was not troubled, for the Angel of his presence saved them. With his love, and by his leniency, he has redeemed them, and he has carried them and lifted them up, throughout all the days of the ages.
10But they themselves provoked to wrath and afflicted his Holy Spirit, and he was turned to be for them like an enemy, and he himself went to war against them.
11And he remembered the days of ancient times, the days of Moses and his people. Where is he who led them out of the sea, with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who placed his Holy Spirit in their midst?
12He led Moses by the right hand, with the arm of his majesty. He split the waters before them, in order to make an everlasting name for himself.
13He led them through the abyss, like a horse which does not stumble, in the desert.
14Like an animal who descends to an open field, the Spirit of the Lord was their guide. Thus did you lead your people, in order to make a glorious name for yourself.
15Gaze down from heaven, and behold from your holy habitation and from your glory. Where is your zeal, and your strength, the fullness of your heart and of your compassion? They have held themselves back from me.
16For you are our Father, and Abraham has not known us, and Israel has been ignorant of us. You are our Father, O Lord our Redeemer. Your name is beyond all ages.
17Why have you allowed us to stray from your ways, O Lord? Why have you hardened our heart, so that we do not fear you? Return, for the sake of your servants, the tribes of your inheritance.
18They have possessed your holy people as if it were nothing. Our enemies have trampled your sanctuary.
19We have become as we were in the beginning, when you did not rule over us, and when we were not called by your name.
Reina-Valera 1909
1¿QUIÉN es éste que viene de Edom, de Bosra con vestidos bermejos? ¿éste hermoso en su vestido, que marcha en la grandeza de su poder? Yo, el que hablo en justicia, grande para salvar.
2¿Por qué es bermejo tu vestido, y tus ropas como del que ha pisado en lagar?
3Pisado he yo solo el lagar, y de los pueblos nadie fué conmigo: pisélos con mi ira, y hollélos con mi furor; y su sangre salpicó mis vestidos, y ensucié todas mis ropas.
4Porque el día de la venganza está en mi corazón, y el año de mis redimidos es venido.
5Y miré y no había quien ayudara, y maravilléme que no hubiera quien sustentase: y salvóme mi brazo, y sostúvome mi ira.
6Y con mi ira hollé los pueblos, y embriaguélos de mi furor, y derribé á tierra su fortaleza.
7De las misericordias de Jehová haré memoria, de las alabanzas de Jehová, conforme á todo lo que Jehová nos ha dado, y de la grandeza de su beneficencia hacia la casa de Israel, que les ha hecho según sus misericordias, y según la multitud de sus miseraciones.
8Porque dijo: Ciertamente mi pueblo son, hijos que no mienten; y fué su Salvador.
9En toda angustia de ellos él fué angustiado, y el ángel de su faz los salvó: en su amor y en su clemencia los redimió, y los trajo, y los levantó todos los días del siglo.
10Mas ellos fueron rebeldes, é hicieron enojar su espíritu santo; por lo cual se les volvió enemigo, y él mismo peleó contra ellos.
11Empero acordóse de los días antiguos, de Moisés y de su pueblo, diciendo: ¿Dónde está el que les hizo subir de la mar con el pastor de su rebaño? ¿dónde el que puso en medio de él su espíritu santo?
12¿El que los guió por la diestra de Moisés con el brazo de su gloria; el que rompió las aguas delante de ellos, haciéndose así nombre perpetuo?
13¿El que los condujo por los abismos, como un caballo por el desierto, sin que tropezaran?
14El espíritu de Jehová los pastoreó, como á una bestia que desciende al valle; así pastoreaste tu pueblo, para hacerte nombre glorioso.
15Mira desde el cielo, y contempla desde la morada de tu santidad y de tu gloria: ¿dónde está tu celo, y tu fortaleza, la conmoción de tus entrañas y de tus miseraciones para conmigo? ¿hanse estrechado?
16Tú empero eres nuestro padre, si bien Abraham nos ignora, é Israel no nos conoce: tú, oh Jehová, eres nuestro padre; nuestro Redentor perpetuo es tu nombre.
17¿Por qué, oh Jehová, nos has hecho errar de tus caminos, y endureciste nuestro corazón á tu temor? Vuélvete por amor de tus siervos, por las tribus de tu heredad.
18Por poco tiempo lo poseyó el pueblo de tu santidad: nuestros enemigos han hollado tu santuario.
19Hemos venido á ser como aquellos de quienes nunca te enseñoreaste, sobre los cuales nunca fué llamado tu nombre.
King James Version
1Who 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.
2Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?
3I 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.
4For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
5And 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.
6And 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.
7I 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.
8For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
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 bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
10But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
11Then 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?
12That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
14As 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.
15Look 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?
16Doubtless 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.
17O 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.
18The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
19We are thine: thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.
World English Bible
1Who is this who comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? Who is this who is glorious in his clothing, marching in the greatness of his strength? “It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”
2Why is your clothing red, and your garments like him who treads in the wine vat?
3“I have trodden the wine press alone. Of the peoples, no one was with me. Yes, I trod them in my anger and trampled them in my wrath. Their lifeblood is sprinkled on my garments, and I have stained all my clothing.
4For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed has come.
5I looked, and there was no one to help; and I wondered that there was no one to uphold. Therefore my own arm brought salvation to me. My own wrath upheld me.
6I trod down the peoples in my anger and made them drunk in my wrath. I poured their lifeblood out on the earth.”
7I will tell of the loving kindnesses of the LORD and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has given to us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has given to them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
8For he said, “Surely, they are my people, children who will not deal falsely;” 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. He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
10But they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit. Therefore he turned 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 shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put his Holy Spirit among them?”
12Who caused his glorious arm to be at Moses’ right hand? Who divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13Who led them through the depths, like a horse in the wilderness, so that they didn’t stumble?
14As the livestock that go down into the valley, the LORD’s Spirit caused them to rest. So you led your people to make yourself a glorious name.
15Look down from heaven, and see from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory. Where are your zeal and your mighty acts? The yearning of your heart and your compassion is restrained toward me.
16For you are our Father, though Abraham doesn’t know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us. You, LORD, are our Father. Our Redeemer from everlasting is your name.
17O LORD, why do you make us wander from your ways, and harden our heart from your fear? Return for your servants’ sake, the tribes of your inheritance.
18Your holy people possessed it but a little while. Our adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary.
19We have become like those over whom you never ruled, like those who were not called by your name.
