New Testament

Isaiah 63:2-6 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

2. Why are your clothes red? They look as if you have been stomping on grapes in a winepress.

3. The Lord answers, "I have been stomping on the nations as if they were grapes. No one was there to help me. I walked all over the nations because I was angry. That is why I stomped on them. Their blood splashed all over my clothes. So my clothes were stained bright red.

4. I decided it was time to pay Israel's enemies back. The year for me to set my people free had come.

5. I looked around, but no one was there to help me. I was shocked that no one gave me any help. So I used my own powerful arm to save my people. I had the strength to do it because I was angry.

6. I walked all over the nations because I was angry with them. I made them drink from the cup of my burning anger. I poured their blood out on the ground."
