Zion’s Future Glory
2 On that day the Branch[a] of the Lord will be beautiful and glorious,(A) and the fruit of the land(B) will be the pride and glory(C) of Israel’s survivors.(D) 3 Whoever remains in Zion and whoever is left in Jerusalem(E) will be called holy(F)—all in Jerusalem written in the book of life[b](G)— 4 when the Lord has washed away the filth(H) of the daughters of Zion and cleansed the bloodguilt(I) from the heart of Jerusalem by a spirit of judgment(J) and a spirit of burning.(K) 5 Then the Lord will create(L) a cloud of smoke by day(M) and a glowing flame of fire by night over the entire site of Mount Zion and over its assemblies. For there will be a canopy over all the glory,[c] 6 and there will be a shelter for shade from heat by day and a refuge and shelter from storm and rain.(N)

Isaiah 4:2-6
New Living Translation
A Promise of Restoration
2 But in that day, the branch[a] 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.
3 All who remain in Zion
will be a holy people—
those who survive the destruction of Jerusalem
and are recorded among the living.
4 The Lord will wash the filth from beautiful Zion[b]
and cleanse Jerusalem of its bloodstains
with the hot breath of fiery judgment.
5 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.
6 It will be a shelter from daytime heat
and a hiding place from storms and rain.
