A Remnant Prepared

4 For seven women will take hold of ^(A)one man on that day, saying, “We will eat our own bread and wear our own clothes, only let us be called by your name; ^(B)take away our disgrace!”

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