Isaiah 4

4In that day^p seven women

will take hold of one man^q

and say, “We will eat our own food^r

and provide our own clothes;

only let us be called by your name.

Take away our disgrace!”^s

The Branch of the Lord

²In that day^t the Branch of the Lord^u will be beautiful^v and glorious, and the fruit^w of the land will be the pride and glory^x of the survivors^y in Israel. ³Those who are left in Zion,^z who remain^a in Jerusalem, will be called holy,^b all who are recorded^c among the living in Jerusalem. ⁴The Lord will wash away the filth^d of the women of Zion;^e he will cleanse^f the bloodstains^g from Jerusalem by a spirit^a of judgment^h and a spirit^b of fire.^{i 5}Then the Lord will create^j over all of Mount Zion^k and over those who assemble there a cloud of smoke by day and a glow of flaming fire by night;^l over everything the glory^cm will be a canopy.^{n 6}It will be a shelter^o and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge^p and hiding place from the storm^q and rain.
