In the
year of
King Uzziah's death I
saw the
Lord sitting on a
throne,
lofty and
exalted, with the
train of His
robe filling the
temple.

Seraphim stood above Him,
each having
six wings: with
two he
covered his
face, and with
two he
covered his
feet, and with
two he
flew.

And
one called out to
another and
said,
"Holy,
Holy,
Holy, is the
LORD of
hosts, The
whole earth is
full of His
glory."

And the
foundations of the
thresholds trembled at the
voice of him who
called out, while the
temple was
filling with
smoke.

Then I
said,
"Woe is me, for I am
ruined!
Because I am a
man of
unclean lips, And I
live among a
people of
unclean lips; For my
eyes have
seen the
King, the
LORD of
hosts."

Then
one of the
seraphim flew to me with a
burning coal in his
hand, which he had
taken from the
altar with
tongs.

He
touched my
mouth with it and
said,
"Behold,
this has
touched your
lips; and your
iniquity is
taken away and your
sin is
forgiven."

Then I
heard the
voice of the
Lord,
saying,
"Whom shall I
send, and
who will
go for Us?" Then I
said,
"Here am I.
Send me!"

He
said,
"Go, and
tell this people:
'Keep on
listening, but do not
perceive;
Keep on
looking, but do not
understand.'

"Render the
hearts of
this people insensitive, Their
ears dull, And their
eyes dim,
Otherwise they might
see with their
eyes,
Hear with their
ears,
Understand with their
hearts, And
return and be
healed."

Then I
said,
"Lord,
how long *?" And He
answered,
"Until * * cities are
devastated and
without inhabitant,
Houses are
without people And the
land is
utterly desolate,

"Yet there will be a
tenth portion in it, And it will
again be subject to
burning, Like a
terebinth or an
oak Whose stump remains
when it is
felled. The
holy seed is its
stump."
