< 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.”
And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, take away our reproach.
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.
In that day the bud of the Lord shall be in magnificence and glory, and the fruit of the earth shall be high, and a great joy to them that shall have escaped of 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.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that shall be left in Sion, and that shall remain in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, every one that is written in life in 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.
If the Lord shall wash away the filth of the daughters of Sion, and shall wash away the blood of Jerusalem out of the midst thereof, by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.
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,
And the Lord will create upon every place of mount Sion, and where he is called upon, a cloud by day, and a smoke and the brightness of a flaming fire in the night: for over all the glory shall be a protection.
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!
And there shall be a tabernacle for a shade in the daytime from the heat, and for a security and covert from the whirlwind, and from rain.
