Isaiah 4:2-4
Easy-to-Read Version
2 At that time the Lord’s plant[a] will be very beautiful and glorious. The people in Israel who survived will be very proud of what the land grows. 3 And all those who are left in Zion and Jerusalem will be called holy. Their names were on the list of people in Jerusalem who were allowed to live.
4 The Lord will wash away the filth[b] from the daughters of Zion.[c] He will wash away the blood from Jerusalem. With a spirit of judgment that burns like fire, he will make everything pure.
