Isaiah 4

1 And seven women have taken hold on one man, In that day, saying, “We eat our own bread, And we put on our own raiment, Only, let your name be called over us, Remove our reproach.”

Syv Kvinder skal paa hin Dag gribe fat i een Mand og sige: »Vi vil æde vort eget Brød og holde os selv med Klæder, blot vi maa bære dit Navn. Tag Vanæren fra os!«

2 In that day is the Shoot of YHWH for desire and for glory, And the fruit of the earth For excellence and for beauty to the escaped of Israel.

Paa hin Dag Bliver HERRENS Spire til Fryd og Ære og Landets Frugt til Stolthed og Smykke for de undslupne i Israel.

3 And it has been, he who is left in Zion, And he who is remaining in Jerusalem, “Holy” is said of him, Of everyone who is written for life in Jerusalem.

Den, som er levnet i Zion og blevet tilovers i Jerusalem, skal kaldes hellig, enhver, der er indskrevet til Livet i Jerusalem,

4 If the Lord has washed away The filth of daughters of Zion, And purges the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, By the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

naar Herren faar aftvættet Zions Døtres Smuds og bortskyllet Jerusalems Blodskyld fra dets Midte med Doms og Udrensnings Aand.

5 Then YHWH has created Over every fixed place of Mount Zion, And over her convocations, A cloud by day, and smoke, And the shining of a flaming fire by night, That over all glory—a safeguard,

Da skaber Herren over hvert et Sted paa Zions Bjerg og over dets Festforsamlinger en Sky om Dagen og Røg med luende Ildskær om Natten; thi over alt, hvad herligt er, skal der være et Dække

6 And a covering may be, For a shadow from drought by day, And for a refuge, and for a hiding place, From inundation and from rain!

og Ly til Skygge mod Hede og til Skærm og Skjul mod Skybrud og Regn.
