Isaiah 4

Isaiah Chapter 4

In that day, so few men will be left that seven women
Will fight for each man, saying, "Let us all marry you
We will provide our own food and clothing; only let
Us take your name so we won't be mocked as old maids."

A promise of restoration
But in that day the Branch of the Lord will be
Beautiful and glorious; the Fruit of the Land will
Be the pride and glory of all who survive in Israel

All who remain in Zion will be a holy people—those who survived
The destruction of Jerusalem and are recorded among the living
The Lord will wash the filth from beautiful Zion and cleanse
Jerusalem of its bloodstains with a hot breath of fiery judgment
Then the Lord will provide shade for Mount Zion and all who assemble
There. He will provide a canopy of cloud during the day and smoke
And flaming fire at night, covering the glorious land. It will be
A shelter from daytime heat and a hiding place from storms and rain
