Isaiah 4

¹When that time comes, seven women will grab hold of one man and say, "We can feed and clothe ourselves, but please let us say you are our husband, so that we won't have to endure the shame of being unmarried."

²The time is coming when the LORD will make every plant and tree in the land grow large and beautiful. All the people of Israel who survive will take delight and pride in the crops that the land produces.

³Everyone who is left in Jerusalem, whom God has chosen for survival, will be called holy.

⁴By his power the Lord will judge and purify the nation and wash away the guilt of Jerusalem and the blood that has been shed there.

⁵Then over Mount Zion and over all who are gathered there, the LORD will send a cloud in the daytime and smoke and a bright flame at night. God's glory will cover and protect the whole city.

⁶His glory will shade the city from the heat of the day and make it a place of safety, sheltered from the rain and storm.
