Isaiah 4

Evangelical Heritage Version

The Branch of the Lord Will Be Beautiful

² On that day, the Branch^[a] of the Lord will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land will be the beauty and glory of the survivors of Israel. ³ Then whoever is left in Zion and whoever remains in Jerusalem will be called holy, that is, everyone who is registered for life in Jerusalem. ⁴ The Lord will wash away the disgusting filth^[b] of the daughters of Zion and cleanse the blood of Jerusalem from its midst by the Spirit^[c] of judgment and by the Spirit of burning. ⁵ Then over the entire site^[d] of Mount Zion and over her assemblies, the Lord will create a cloud of smoke by day and a bright flaming fire by night, so there will be a canopy over all the glory. ⁶ In the daytime there will be a shelter to provide shade from the heat and to provide refuge and a hiding place from the storm and the rain.
