Modern Hebrew Bible
1Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bosra, this beautiful one in his robe, walking in the greatness of his strength. I, that speak justice, and am a defender to save.
1מי זה בא מאדום חמוץ בגדים מבצרה זה הדור בלבושו צעה ברב כחו אני מדבר בצדקה רב להושיע׃
2Why then is thy apparel red, and thy garments like theirs that tread in the winepress?
2מדוע אדם ללבושך ובגדיך כדרך בגת׃
3I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the Gentiles there is not a man with me: I have trampled on them in my indignation, and have trodden them down in my wrath, and their blood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my apparel.
3פורה דרכתי לבדי ומעמים אין איש אתי ואדרכם באפי וארמסם בחמתי ויז נצחם על בגדי וכל מלבושי אגאלתי׃
4For the day of vengeance is in my heart, the year of my redemption is come.
4כי יום נקם בלבי ושנת גאולי באה׃
5I looked about, and there was none to help: I sought, and there was none to give aid: and my own arm hath saved for me, and my indignation itself hath helped me.
5ואביט ואין עזר ואשתומם ואין סומך ותושע לי זרעי וחמתי היא סמכתני׃
6And I have trodden down the people in my wrath, and have made them drunk in my indignation, and have brought down their strength to the earth.
6ואבוס עמים באפי ואשכרם בחמתי ואוריד לארץ נצחם׃
7I will remember the tender mercies of the Lord, the praise of the Lord for all the things that the Lord hath bestowed upon us, and for the multitude of his good things to the house of Israel, which he hath given them according to his kindness, and according to the multitude of his mercies.
7חסדי יהוה אזכיר תהלת יהוה כעל כל אשר גמלנו יהוה ורב טוב לבית ישראל אשר גמלם כרחמיו וכרב חסדיו׃
8And he said: Surely they are my people, children that will not deny: so he became their saviour.
8ויאמר אך עמי המה בנים לא ישקרו ויהי להם למושיע׃
9In all their affliction he was not troubled, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love, and in his mercy he redeemed them, and he carried them and lifted them up all the days of old.
9בכל צרתם לא צר ומלאך פניו הושיעם באהבתו ובחמלתו הוא גאלם וינטלם וינשאם כל ימי עולם׃
10But they provoked to wrath, and afflicted the spirit of his Holy One: and he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
10והמה מרו ועצבו את רוח קדשו ויהפך להם לאויב הוא נלחם בם׃
11And he remembered the days of old of Moses, and of his people: Where is he that brought them up out of the sea, with the shepherds of his flock? where is he that put in the midst of them the spirit of his Holy One?
11ויזכר ימי עולם משה עמו איה המעלם מים את רעי צאנו איה השם בקרבו את רוח קדשו׃
12He that brought out Moses by the right hand, by the arm of his majesty: that divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name.
12מוליך לימין משה זרוע תפארתו בוקע מים מפניהם לעשות לו שם עולם׃
13He that led them out through the deep, as a horse in the wilderness that stumbleth not.
13מוליכם בתהמות כסוס במדבר לא יכשלו׃
14As a beast that goeth down in the field, the spirit of the Lord was their leader: so didst thou lead thy people to make thyself a glorious name.
14כבהמה בבקעה תרד רוח יהוה תניחנו כן נהגת עמך לעשות לך שם תפארת׃
15Look down from heaven, and behold from thy holy habitation and the place of thy glory: where is thy zeal, and thy strength, the multitude of thy bowels, and of thy mercies? they have held back themselves from me.
15הבט משמים וראה מזבל קדשך ותפארתך איה קנאתך וגבורתך המון מעיך ורחמיך אלי התאפקו׃
16For thou art our father, and Abraham hath not known us, and Israel hath been ignorant of us: thou, O Lord, art our father, our redeemer, from everlasting is thy name.
16כי אתה אבינו כי אברהם לא ידענו וישראל לא יכירנו אתה יהוה אבינו גאלנו מעולם שמך׃
17Why hast thou made us to err, O Lord, from thy ways: why hast thou hardened our heart, that we should not fear thee? return for the sake of thy servants, the tribes of thy inheritance.
17למה תתענו יהוה מדרכיך תקשיח לבנו מיראתך שוב למען עבדיך שבטי נחלתך׃
18They have possessed thy holy people as nothing: our enemies have trodden down thy sanctuary.
18למצער ירשו עם קדשך צרינו בוססו מקדשך׃
19We are become as in the beginning, when thou didst not rule over us, and when we were not called by thy name.
19היינו מעולם לא משלת בם לא נקרא שמך עליהם׃
