KJVWherefore art thou red^H122 in thine apparel^H3830, and thy garments^H899 like him that treadeth^H1869^(H8802) in the winefat^H1660?

KJVI have trodden^H1869^(H8804) the winepress^H6333 alone; and of the people^H5971 there was none^H376 with me: for I will tread^H1869^(H8799) them in mine anger^H639, and trample^H7429^(H8799) them in my fury^H2534; and their blood^H5332 shall be sprinkled^H5137^(H8799) upon my garments^H899, and I will stain^H1351^(H8689) all my raiment^H4403.

⁶ I trod down the peoples in my anger and made them drunk in my wrath. I poured their lifeblood out on the earth.”

KJVAnd I will tread down^H947^(H8799) the people^H5971 in mine anger^H639, and make them drunk^H7937^(H8762) in my fury^H2534, and I will bring down^H3381^(H8686) their strength^H5332 to the earth^H776.

KJVWe are thine: thou never^H5769 barest rule^H4910^(H8804) over them; they were not called^H7121^(H8738) by thy name^H8034.

⁹ but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise Yahweh. Those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”
