1 And seven women shall grasp at one man on that day, saying,

“We will eat our own bread,

and we will wear our own clothing;

only let us be called by your name!

Take away our disgrace!”

The Glory of the Branch of Yahweh

2 On that day the branch of Yahweh shall become beautiful and glorious,

and the fruit of the land shall become the pride and glory of the survivorsof Israel.

3 And this shall happen: He who is left in Zion

and he who remains in Jerusalem will be called holy,

everyone written for life in Jerusalem,

4 when the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion

and cleansed the blood of Jerusalem from her midst

by a spirit of judgment

and by a spirit of burning.

5 Then Yahweh will create over all of the siteof Mount Zion

and over her assembly a cloud by day

and smoke and the brightness of flaming fire by night.

Indeed, over all the glory there will be a canopy,

6 and it will be a shelter for shade from the heat by day,

and a refuge and a hiding place from rainstorm and from rain.
