12:5 “Because of the violence done to the oppressed,
because of the painful cries
I will spring into action,”
“I will provide the safety they so desperately desire.”
78:65 But then the Lord awoke from his sleep;
he was like a warrior in a drunken rage.
78:66 He drove his enemies back;
he made them a permanent target for insults.
42:13 The Lord emerges like a hero,
like a warrior he inspires himself for battle;
he shouts, yes, he yells,
he shows his enemies his power.
42:14 “I have been inactive
I kept quiet and held back.
Like a woman in labor I groan;
I pant and gasp.
59:16 He sees there is no advocate;
he is shocked
So he takes matters into his own hands;
his desire for justice drives him on.
59:17 He wears his desire for justice
and his desire to deliver is like a helmet on his head.
He puts on the garments of vengeance
and wears zeal like a robe.
59:18 He repays them for what they have done,
dispensing angry judgment to his adversaries
and punishing his enemies.
He repays the coastlands.
