1 Seven women will grab hold of one man at that time. They will say, |We will provide our own food, we will provide our own clothes; but let us belong to you--take away our shame!| 2 At that time the crops given by the LORD will bring admiration and honor; the produce of the land will be a source of pride and delight to those who remain in Israel. 3 Those remaining in Zion, those left in Jerusalem, will be called |holy,| all in Jerusalem who are destined to live. 4 At that time the sovereign master will wash the excrement from Zion's women, he will rinse the bloodstains from Jerusalem's midst, as he comes to judge and to bring devastation.
