Isaiah 4

1 When that happens, [there will be very few unmarried men still alive]. [As a result], seven [unmarried] women will grab one man, and say, “Allow us [all] to marry you [IDM]! We will provide our own food and clothing. All that we want is to no longer be disgraced [because of not being married].”

在那日，七个女人必拉住一个男人，说：“我们吃自己的食物，穿自己的衣服，但求你许我们归你名下；求你除掉我们的羞耻。”

2 [But] some day, Israel [MTY] will be [very] beautiful and great/glorious. The people of Israel who will still be there will be very proud of the wonderful fruit that grows in their land.

到那日，耶和华发生的苗必华美尊荣，地的出产必为以色列逃脱的人显为荣华茂盛。

3 All the people who will remain in Jerusalem, who were not killed when Jerusalem was destroyed, whose names are listed among those who live there, will be [called] holy.

主以公义的灵和焚烧的灵，将锡安女子的污秽洗去，又将耶路撒冷中杀人的血除净。那时，剩在锡安、留在耶路撒冷的，就是一切住耶路撒冷、在生命册上记名的，必称为圣。

4 [That will happen when] Yahweh washes away the guilt of the women of Jerusalem, and when he stops the violence [MET] [on the streets of Jerusalem] by punishing [the people of Jerusalem]. When he does that, it will be like a fire to burn up all the impure things.

5 Then Yahweh will send a cloud of smoke every day and a flaming fire every night to cover Jerusalem and [all] those who gather there; it will be [like] a glorious canopy over the city

耶和华也必在锡安全山，并各会众以上，使白日有烟云，黑夜有火焰的光。因为在全荣耀之上必有遮蔽。

6 that will shelter the people from the sun during the daytime and protect them when there are windstorms and rain.

必有亭子，白日可以得荫避暑，也可以作为藏身之处，躲避狂风暴雨。
