Yesaya 63
1 "Siapakah dia yang datang dari Bozra di Edom? bajunya merah, pakaiannya semarak; ia berjalan dengan gagah perkasa."
Who is this that cometh from Edom, dyed red in his garments from Bozrah? this—glorious in his apparel, moving along in the greatness of his strength? “I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”
2 "Mengapa pakaianmu semerah itu, seperti baju pengirik buah anggur?"
Why is redness on thy apparel, and [why are] thy garments as of one that treadeth the wine-press?
3 "Sendirian Aku masuk ke tempat pengirikan anggur di antara umat-Ku tak ada yang menolong Aku. Bangsa-bangsa Kuinjak-injak dalam kemarahan-Ku, seperti menginjak-injak buah anggur. Darah mereka menyembur membasahi baju-Ku, mencemarkan seluruh pakaian-Ku.
“I have trodden the vat alone, and of the nations there was no man with me; and I trod them down in my anger, and I trampled on them in my fury; and their blood was sprinkled on my garments, and all my raiments have I stained.
4 Aku sudah merencanakan hari pembalasan, dan masa pembebasan bagi umat-Ku.
For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed was come.
5 Aku mencari, tetapi tak ada yang menolong, Aku heran bahwa tak ada yang membantu. Lalu kekuatan-Ku sendiri menolong Aku, kemarahan-Ku membantu Aku.
And I looked, and there was no one to help, and I was astonished, and there was no one to support; and then my own arm aided me, and my fury—this it was that upheld me.
6 Dalam kemarahan-Ku yang bernyala-nyala, Kuinjak-injak bangsa-bangsa; Kubinasakan mereka, dan darah mereka Kutumpahkan ke tanah."
And I stamped down nations in my anger, and I made them drunken with my fury, and brought down to the earth their victorious strength.”
7 Aku hendak mewartakan kasih TUHAN dan memuji Dia karena segala perbuatan-Nya. Dengan limpah Ia memberkati umat-Nya, karena Ia berbelaskasihan dan kasih-Nya tidak berkesudahan.
The kindnesses of the Lord will I mention, the praises of the Lord, in accordance with all that the Lord hath bestowed on us, and the abundant goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and the abundance of his kindnesses.
8 TUHAN berkata, "Sungguh, mereka adalah umat-Ku, anak-anak yang tidak mengecewakan." Maka Ia menjadi Penyelamat mereka,
And he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie; and he became to them a Saviour.
9 Ia sendiri ditimpa kesusahan mereka. TUHAN tidak mengirim utusan atau duta; Ia sendirilah yang membebaskan mereka karena kasih dan belaskasihan-Nya. Ia selalu memelihara mereka sejak dahulu kala.
In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them; in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bore them, and he carried them all the days of old.
10 Tetapi mereka memberontak dan menyedihkan hati TUHAN. Maka Ia berbalik menjadi musuh mereka Ia sendiri berperang melawan mereka.
But they rebelled, and grieved his holy Spirit; and he changed himself to become their enemy, and he fought against them.
11 Lalu mereka teringat zaman dahulu, zaman Musa, hamba TUHAN. Mereka bertanya, "Di manakah TUHAN yang menuntun para pemimpin umat-Nya melalui laut? Di manakah TUHAN yang memberi kuasa-Nya kepada mereka?
Then remembered his people the ancient days of Moses, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put within him his holy Spirit?
12 Di manakah TUHAN yang mendampingi Musa dengan tangan-Nya yang kuat perkasa, dan membelah air di depan mereka supaya nama-Nya termasyhur selama-lamanya?
That displayed by the right hand of Moses his glorious arm; that divided the water before them, to make unto himself an everlasting name?
13 Di manakah TUHAN yang menuntun mereka berjalan melalui air yang dalam? Seperti kuda melalui padang gurun, mereka tidak pernah tersandung."
That led them through the deeps, as a horse through the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
14 TUHAN membawa mereka ke tempat perhentian, seperti ternak digiring untuk merumput di padang. Begitulah Ia membimbing umat-Nya, supaya nama-Nya diagungkan.
As a beast goeth down into the valley, so did the spirit of the Lord bring them to rest; thus didst thou guide thy people, to make unto thyself a glorious name.
15 Ya TUHAN, pandanglah dari surga, dari kediaman-Mu yang suci dan mulia. Di manakah kasih dan keperkasaan-Mu? Di manakah kerahiman dan belas kasih-Mu? Janganlah menahan itu dari kami.
Look down from heaven, and behold, from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where are thy zeal and thy mights, the yearning of thy bowels and of thy mercy which are now restrained from me?
16 Bukankah Engkau Bapa kami? Abraham dan Yakub tidak mengenal kami. Tetapi Engkau ya TUHAN, adalah Bapa kami, Penyelamat kami sejak dahulu kala.
For thou art our father; for Abraham knoweth nothing of us, and Israel recogniseth us not: thou, O Lord, art our father, our Redeemer from everlasting is thy name.
17 Ya TUHAN, mengapa Kaubiarkan kami tersesat? Mengapa Engkau menegarkan hati kami sehingga kami tidak takut kepada-Mu? Kembalilah demi hamba-hamba-Mu, demi umat-Mu, milik pusaka-Mu.
Why hast thou let us go astray, O Lord, from thy ways, suffered our heart to be hardened against thy fear? Return for the sake of thy servants, the tribes of thy heritage.
18 Mengapa Kaubiarkan musuh menginjak-injak Rumah-Mu, dan orang-orang mencemarkan bukit-Mu yang suci?
But a brief space were thy holy people in possession, when our adversaries trod down thy sanctuary.
19 Engkau memperlakukan kami seolah-olah Engkau tak pernah berkuasa atas kami; seolah-olah kami tak pernah menjadi umat-Mu.
We are become as though we are those over whom thou hast never ruled, over whom thy name hath not been called.
