Isaiah 4:2-6
New American Standard Bible
2 On that day the (A)Branch of the Lord will be beautiful and glorious, and the (B)fruit of the earth will be the pride and the beauty of the (C)survivors of Israel. 3 And it will come about that the one who is (D)left in Zion and remains behind in Jerusalem will be called (E)holy—everyone who is (F)recorded for life in Jerusalem. 4 When the Lord has washed away the filth of the (G)daughters of Zion and [a]purged the (H)bloodshed of Jerusalem from her midst, by the (I)spirit of judgment and the (J)spirit of [b]burning, 5 then the Lord will create over the entire area of Mount Zion and over her assemblies (K)a cloud by day, and smoke, and the brightness of a flaming fire by night; for over all the (L)glory will be a canopy. 6 And there will be a (M)shelter to give shade from the heat by day, and refuge and [c]protection from the storm and the rain.

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.
