The Lord in Judgment and Salvation
With dyed garments from Bozrah,
This One who is1 glorious in His apparel,
Traveling in the greatness of His strength?—
“I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”
And from the peoples no one was with Me.
For I have trodden them in My anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My robes.
And I wondered
That there was no one to uphold;
Therefore My own carm brought salvation for Me;
And My own fury, it sustained Me.
Made them drunk in My fury,
And brought down their strength to the earth.”
God’s Mercy Remembered
And the praises of the Lord,
According to all that the Lord has bestowed on us,
And the great goodness toward the house of Israel,
Which He has bestowed on them according to His mercies,
According to the multitude of His lovingkindnesses.

I that speak in righteousness "I who publish righteousness" - A MS. has hammedabber , with the demonstrative article added with greater force and emphasis: The announcer of righteousness. A MS. has tsedakah , without be prefixed; and so the Septuagint and Vulgate. And thirty-eight MSS. (seven ancient) of Dr. Kennicott' s, and many of De Rossi' s, and one of my own, add the conjunction vau to rab , and mighty; which the Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate confirm. - L.
