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.

Common English Bible
Zion’s glorious future
2 On that day, the Lord’s branch will become beautiful and glorious. The earth’s fruit will be the pride and splendor of Israel’s survivors. 3 Whoever remains in Zion and is left in Jerusalem will be called holy, everyone who is on the list of those living in Jerusalem. 4 When the Lord washes the filth from Zion’s daughters, and cleanses Jerusalem’s bloodguilt from within it by means of a wind of judgment and a searing wind, 5 then the Lord will create over the whole site of Mount Zion and over its assembly a cloud by day and smoke and the light of a blazing fire by night. Over all the glory there will be a canopy, 6 which will be a booth by day for shade from the heat and a hiding place and shelter from a stormy downpour.
