Isaiah 4
4
1At that time seven women will grab hold of one man and tell him, “We'll eat our own food and we can provide our own clothes. Just let us take your name by being married to you.#4:1. “By being married to you”: supplied for clarity. Please take away our disgrace!”
2But at that time, the “branch of the Lord”#4:2. Referring to the coming Messiah. will be attractive and glorious; the fruit the land produces will be the pride and glory of the survivors who are left in Israel. 3Everyone who remains in Zion will be called holy—all of those who are recorded among the living in Jerusalem— 4once the Lord has washed away the excrement of the daughters of Zion, and cleaned the bloodstains from Jerusalem by a spirit of judgment and a spirit of fire.
5Then the Lord will create over the whole of Mount Zion and over the assembly of those who meet there a cloud of smoke during the day and a blazing flame of fire during night—over everything there will be this glorious canopy. 6It will provide a place to stay in the shade of the daytime heat, and a shelter to hide from storm and rain.

Isaiah 4
4
1At that time seven women will grab one man
and say, “We will eat our own bread
and 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. 3Those who are still living in Jerusalem will be called holy; their 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 and clean the city with the spirit of fairness and the spirit of fire. 5Then the Lord will cover Mount Zion and the people who meet there with a cloud of smoke during the day and with a bright, flaming fire at night. There will be a covering over every person. 6This covering will protect the people from the heat of the sun and will provide a safe place to hide from the storm and rain.
