2 “Why is his clothing so red, like that of someone who tramples grapes to make wine?”
3 The Lord answers, “I have trampled the nations like grapes, and no one came to help me. I trampled them in my anger, and their blood has stained all my clothing.
4 I decided that the time to save my people had come; it was time to punish their enemies.
5 I was amazed when I looked and saw that there was no one to help me. But my anger made me strong, and I won the victory myself.
6 In my anger I trampled whole nations and shattered them. I poured out their lifeblood on the ground.”
7 I will tell of the Lord's unfailing love;I praise him for all he has done for us.He has richly blessed the people of Israelbecause of his mercy and constant love.
8 The Lord said, “They are my people; they will not deceive me.” And so he saved them
