1 In that day seven womenwill take hold of one manand say, ‘We will eat our own foodand provide our own clothes;only let us be called by your name.Take away our disgrace!’
2 In that day the Branch of the Lord will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land will be the pride and glory of the survivors in Israel.
3 Those who are left in Zion, who remain in Jerusalem, will be called holy, all who are recorded among the living in Jerusalem.
4 The Lord will wash away the filth of the women of Zion; he will cleanse the bloodstains from Jerusalem by a spirit of judgment and a spirit of fire.
5 Then the Lord will create over all of Mount Zion and over those who assemble there a cloud of smoke by day and a glow of flaming fire by night; over everything the glory will be a canopy.
6 It will be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge and hiding-place from the storm and rain.
