3. “I have been treading the winepress alone;no one was there to help me.In my anger I have trampled my enemiesas if they were grapes.In my fury I have trampled my foes.Their blood has stained my clothes.
4. For the time has come for me to avenge my people,to ransom them from their oppressors.
5. I was amazed to see that no one intervenedto help the oppressed.So I myself stepped in to save them with my strong arm,and my wrath sustained me.
6. I crushed the nations in my angerand made them stagger and fall to the ground,spilling their blood upon the earth.”
