< 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, to 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 shall the branch of Yhwh be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are 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 he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living 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.
When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from 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 Yhwh will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defence.
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 shadow in the daytime from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain.
