Context of Isaiah 63:4
2Why are your clothes red, and your garments like one who treads a winepress? 3I trampled the winepress alone, and no one from the nations was with me. I trampled them in my anger and ground them underfoot in my fury; their blood spattered my garments, and all my clothes were stained. For I planned the day of vengeance, and the year of my redemption came. 5I looked, but there was no one to help, and I was amazed that no one assisted; so my arm accomplished victory for me, and my wrath assisted me. 6I crushed nations in my anger; I made them drunk with my wrath and poured out their blood on the ground.
