Liber Isaiae, 4

1. et adprehendent septem mulieres virum unum in die illa dicentes panem nostrum comedemus et vestimentis nostris operiemur tantummodo vocetur nomen tuum super nos aufer obprobrium nostrum

1. Naquele dia lançarão mão dum só homem sete mulheres, dizendo: Nós comeremos do nosso pão e dos nossos vestidos nos cobriremos; basta que nos comuniques o teu nome (ou sejas o nosso esposo), tira o nosso opróbrio. (ver nota)

2. in die illa erit germen Domini in magnificentia et in gloria et fructus terræ sublimis et exultatio his qui salvati fuerint de Israël

2. Naquele dia será o germe do Senhor ornamento e glória, e o fruto da terra grandeza e honra, para aqueles de Israel que forem salvos. (ver nota)

3. et erit omnis qui relictus fuerit in Sion et residuus in Hierusalem sanctus vocabitur omnis qui scriptus est in vita in Hierusalem

3. Acontecerá que todos aqueles que forem deixados em Sião, que ficarem em Jerusalém, serão chamados santos, todos os que tiverem sido inscritos para a vida em Jerusalém.

4. si abluerit Dominus sordem filiarum Sion et sanguinem Hierusalem laverit de medio ejus spiritu judicii et spiritu ardoris

4. (Isto acontecerá) quando o Senhor tiver limpado as manchas das filhas de Sião, e lavado o sangue do meio de Jerusalém com espírito de justiça e com espírito de ardor,

5. et creabit Dominus super omnem locum montis Sion et ubi invocatus est nubem per diem et fumum et splendorem ignis flammantis in nocte super omnem enim gloriam protectio

5. Então o Senhor estabelecerá, sobre toda a extensão do monte Sião e sobre as suas assembleias, uma nuvem obscura durante o dia e o resplendor duma chama ardente durante a noite, porque sobre toda a sua glória haverá um docel; (ver nota)

6. et tabernaculum erit in umbraculum diei ab æstu et in securitatem et absconsionem a turbine et a pluvia

6. haverá um tabernáculo para fazer sombra de dia contra o calor, e para segurança e guarida contra a tempestade e a chuva.

This brief but powerful text describes the "Branch of the Lord", symbol of the Messiah, and the purification of Jerusalem. The chapter addresses topics such as divine grace, the sanctification of the remnant, and the protective presence of God. Isaiah 4 offers hope in the midst of judgment.

Zechariah 13:1: "On that day there will be a fountain opened for the descendants of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity." - Zechariah expands on the idea of purification mentioned in Isaiah 4:4.

Exodus 13:21-22: "The Lord went before them, during the day in a pillar of cloud to guide them on the way, and at night in a pillar of fire to illuminate them, so that they could walk day and night." - This passage from Exodus is reflected in the promise of God's protecting presence in Isaiah 4:5.
