Isaiah 63:9-15 It was not an ambassador nor a messenger; but he himself saved them. Through his love and his indulgence to them, he himself redeemed them and took them up, and exalted them all the days of old.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ It was not an ambassador nor a messenger; but he himself saved them. Through his love and his indulgence to them, he himself redeemed them and took them up, and exalted them all the days of old. ¹⁰ But they rebelled and provoked his holy spirit; so he became their enemy. He fought against them; ¹¹ though he remembered the days of old. O! where is he who caused the shepherd of his flock to come up out of the sea? Where is he, who put his holy spirit in them? ¹² That glorious arm of his which led Moses by the right hand? He forced back the water from before him, to make himself an everlasting name. ¹³ He led them through the deep, like a horse through a desert; and they were not fatigued: ¹⁴ and like cattle through a plain. A spirit from the Lord descended and conducted them. Thus thou .didst lead this people of thine, to make thyself a glorious name. ¹⁵ Return from heaven and take a view from the house of thy sanctuary and thy glory. Where is thy zeal and thy majesty? Where the abundance of thy loving kindness and tender affections, that thou hast withdrawn thyself from us?
