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].”
Et sept femmes prendront un homme, disant: Nous mangerons notre pain, et nous nous revêtirons de robes à nous; seulement que ton nom soit notre nom, ôte-nous notre opprobre.
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.
Et ce jour-là Dieu, en son conseil, brillera avec gloire sur la terre, pour relever et glorifier le reste d'Israël.
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.
Et il arrivera que le reste de Sion, le reste de Jérusalem, tous ceux qui auront été inscrits à Jérusalem dans la vie, seront appelés saints.
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.
Car le Seigneur lavera la souillure des fils et des filles de Sion; et du sang versé parmi eux il la purifiera en un esprit de justice et un met d'ardeur.
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
Et voici ce qui arrivera: tout lieu de la montagne de Sion et tout ce qui l'entoure sera ombragé le jour par une nuée qui deviendra la nuit comme une fumée, comme la lumière d'un foyer ardent, et le Seigneur les abritera de toute sa gloire.
6 that will shelter the people from the sun during the daytime and protect them when there are windstorms and rain.
Ce sera comme de l'ombre contre la chaleur, comme une toiture et un abri contre le froid et la pluie.
