Isaiah 4

A Remnant in Zion

1And seven women^a shall take hold of one man^b in that day, saying: "We will eat our own bread, and wear our own garment; only let your name be called over us; take away our reproach."
2In that day the branch of the LORD shall be for beauty and for glory, and the fruit of the land for majesty and for splendor, for the escaped of Israel.
3And it shall come to pass, that he who is left in Zion, and he who remains in Jerusalem, shall be called holy—everyone who is written for life^c in Jerusalem;
4When my Lord^d shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and rinsed away the bloods of Jerusalem from its midst, by the spirit^e of judgment^f and by the spirit of burning.
5And the LORD will create over the whole site of Mount Zion, and over her assemblies, a cloud by day and smoke, and the shining of a flaming fire by night; for over all the glory shall be a canopy.
6And there shall be a booth for shade by day from the heat, and for a refuge and for a covert from storm and from rain.
