Isaiah 4:2-6
International Standard Version
The Future Glory of Jerusalem
2 “At that time,[a] the Lord’s branch will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land will be the pride and glory of the survivors of Israel and Judah.[b] 3 Whoever[c] survives in Zion and whoever remains in Jerusalem will be called holy—everyone who has been appointed to survive in Jerusalem— 4 when the Lord will have washed away the filth of the women[d] of Zion, cleaning up Jerusalem’s guilt[e] by a spirit of judgment and a spirit of tempest.[f] 5 Then the Lord will create over the entire site of Mount Zion—including over those who assemble there—a cloud by day[g] 6 and also to serve as a refuge and shelter from storms and rain.”
