Isaiah 4:6

4:6 By day it will be a shelter to provide shade from the heat,

as well as safety and protection from the heavy downpour. ¹ 

Isaiah 61:4

61:4 They will rebuild the perpetual ruins

and restore the places that were desolate; ² 

they will reestablish the ruined cities,

the places that have been desolate since ancient times.

[4:6]  ¹ tn Heb “a shelter it will be for shade by day from heat, and for a place of refuge and for a hiding place from cloudburst and rain.” Since both of the last nouns of this verse can mean rain, they can either refer to the rain storm and the rain as distinct items or together refer to a heavy downpour. Regardless, they do not represent unrelated phenomena.

[61:4]  ² tn Heb “and the formerly desolate places they will raise up.”
