Isaiah 4
4
1At that time seven women
will grab one man.
They will say, “We will make our own bread.
And we will make our own clothes.
But please marry us!
Please, take away our shame.”
The Branch of the Lord
2At that time the Lord’s branch will be very beautiful and great. The people still living in Israel will be proud of what the land grows. 3All the people who are still living in Jerusalem will be called holy. This will be all the people whose names are recorded among the living in Jerusalem. 4The Lord will wash away the filth from the women of Jerusalem. He will wash the bloodstains out of Jerusalem. He will clean Jerusalem with the spirit of fairness and the spirit of fire. 5As he did when Israel left Egypt, the Lord will cover them with a cloud of smoke during the day. And he will cover them with a bright, flaming fire at night. These proofs will be over Mount Zion. They will be over every meeting of the people there. There will be a covering over every person. 6This covering will be a place of safety. It will protect the people from the heat of the sun. It will be a safe place to hide from the storm and rain.

Isaiah 4
4
IV
1And seven women shall lay hold on one man in that day, 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.
2In that day shall the Branch of Jehovah
Become beautiful and glorious;
And the fruit of the earth excellent and comely,
For the remnant saved of Israel.
3And 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.
4When the Lord shall have Washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion;
And shall have wiped off the blood of Jerusalem from the midst of her,
By a spirit of judgment, and by a spirit of burning:
5Then shall Jehovah create upon every dwelling-place in mount Zion,
And upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day;
And the brightness of a flaming fire by night:
For upon all the glory there shall be a covering.
6And a tabernacle it shall be for a shade by day from the heat;
And for a place of refuge, and for a covert, from storm and from rain.
