Isaiah 63:3-5

Easy-to-Read Version

³ He answers, “I walked in the winepress by myself.
    No one helped me.
I was angry, and I trampled the grapes.
    The juice^[a] splashed on my clothes, so now they are stained.
⁴ I chose a time to punish people.
    Now the time has come for me to save and protect my people.
⁵ I looked around, but I saw no one to help me.
    I was surprised that no one supported me.
So I used my own power to save my people.
    My own anger supported me.
