Isaiah, 4

1. Seven women will take hold of one man on that day, saying: "We will eat our own food and wear our own clothing; Only let your name be given us, put an end to our disgrace!"

2. On that day, The branch of the LORD will be luster and glory, and the fruit of the earth will be honor and splendor for the survivors of Israel.

3. He who remains in Zion and he that is left in Jerusalem Will be called holy: every one marked down for life in Jerusalem.

4. When the Lord washes away the filth of the daughters of Zion, And purges Jerusalem's blood from her midst with a blast of searing judgment,

5. Then will the LORD create, over the whole site of Mount Zion and over her place of assembly, A smoking cloud by day and a light of flaming fire by night.

6. For over all, his glory will be shelter and protection: shade from the parching heat of day, refuge and cover from storm and rain.

Verses related to Isaiah, 4:

Isaiah 4 describes a time of judgment when women in Jerusalem will be so few that seven men will cling to a single woman in search of protection. The chapter also talks about the glory that will come when the Lord purifies the city and the remnant of Israel. The verses selected below are related to the themes of judgment and purification:

Isaiah 1:25-26: "Behold, I will make my hand against you, and purify you as with Potassa, and take all your impurity. And I will restore you your judges, as they were before; and your counselors, as before; of this will call you justice city, faithful city ". This verse talks about the purification of God's people, as well as the restoration of justice and faithfulness in the city.

Isaiah 6:13: "But still the tenth part will be in it, and will be fired again; but as the oak and as the azinheira, which after defolishing, they are still firm, so the Holy Seed will be her firmness." Here the Lord announces that a remnant will remain after the trial, just as a tree continues to grow after it has been pruned.

Isaiah 10:22: "For though your people, O Israel, be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of it will become; a destruction is determined, overflowing into justice." This verse also talks about the remnant that will remain after the judgment.

Isaiah 26:20-21: "Come, my people, enter your chambers, and close your doors over you; hide you for a moment, until you pass the wrath. For the Lord comes out of your place, to punish the residents of the earth because of their iniquity; and the earth will discover their blood, and will no longer cover their dead. " This verse talks about the time of judgment when God's people must hide until the wrath has passed, while the Lord punishes the iniquity of the inhabitants of the earth.

Isaiah 32:2: "Each will be as a refuge against the wind, and a shelter against the storm, like water streams in dry places, such as the shadow of a large rock on thirsty land." This verse talks about the protection that the Lord offers to his people in difficult times, such as those described in Isaiah 4.





“Se você não entrega seu coração a Deus, o que lhe entrega?” “Você deve seguir outra estrada. Tire de seu coração todas as paixões deste mundo, humilhe-se na poeira e reze! Dessa forma, certamente você encontrará Deus, que lhe dará paz e serenidade nesta vida e a eterna beatitude na próxima.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
