Isaiah 4
This brief chapter is the turn after chapter 3's devastation. It opens on the aftermath of war, seven women clutching one man just to lose their reproach, then pivots in verse 2 to a startling promise of the LORD's beautiful 'branch' and a cleansed remnant called holy. In six verses it gathers the survivors of Israel and rebuilds Mount Zion under a cloud by day and fire by night, with a canopy and pavilion for shade and shelter from storm. The imagery deliberately echoes the wilderness exodus, signaling a fresh protection over a purged city.
- 1
Seven women shall take hold of one man in that day, saying, “We will eat our own bread, and wear our own clothing. Just let us be called by your name. Take away our reproach.”
- 2
In that day, the LORD’s branch will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land will be the beauty and glory of the survivors of Israel.
- 3
It will happen that he who is left in Zion and he who remains in Jerusalem shall be called holy, even everyone who is written among the living in Jerusalem,
- 4
when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from within it, by the spirit of justice and by the spirit of burning.
- 5
The LORD will create over the whole habitation of Mount Zion and over her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night, for over all the glory will be a canopy.
- 6
There will be a pavilion for a shade in the daytime from the heat, and for a refuge and for a shelter from storm and from rain.
- 1
Sete mulheres agarrarão um homem naquele dia, dizendo: “Nós comeremos o nosso próprio pão, e vestiremos as nossas próprias roupas. Apenas permita que sejamos chamadas pelo seu nome. Tire a nossa vergonha.”
- 2
Naquele dia, o Renovo do SENHOR será belo e glorioso, e o fruto da terra será a beleza e a glória dos sobreviventes de Israel.
- 3
Acontecerá que aquele que restar em Sião e o que permanecer em Jerusalém será chamado santo, ou seja, todo aquele que estiver inscrito entre os vivos em Jerusalém,
- 4
quando o Senhor tiver lavado a imundície das filhas de Sião, e tiver purificado o sangue de Jerusalém do meio dela, pelo espírito de justiça e pelo espírito de fogo.
- 5
O SENHOR criará sobre toda a habitação do monte Sião e sobre as suas assembleias, uma nuvem e fumaça de dia, e o brilho de um fogo flamejante de noite; pois sobre toda a glória haverá uma cobertura.
- 6
Haverá uma tenda para dar sombra contra o calor durante o dia, e para servir de refúgio e abrigo contra a tempestade e a chuva.
Cleansed by burning
The hinge is verse 4: this restored Zion is reached only after the Lord 'washed away the filth' of the daughters of Zion and purges its bloodshed 'by the spirit of justice and by the spirit of burning.' Restoration here is not amnesty but purification through fire.
Set against chapter 3's stripped-bare city, this short oracle shows Isaiah's recurring rhythm: judgment is never the last word, and a remnant survives to inhabit the renewed glory.
