Isaiah 6:1-9

1In the yearH8141 that KingH4428 UzziahH5818 diedH4194, I sawH7200 the LordH136 seatedH3427 onH5921 a throneH3678, highH7311 and exaltedH5375; and the train of His robeH7757 1 filledH4390 the templeH1964. 2AboveH4605 Him stoodH5975 seraphimH8314, eachH259 having sixH8337 wingsH3671 : With twoH8147 wings they coveredH3680 their facesH6440, with twoH8147 they coveredH3680 their feetH7272, and with twoH8147 they were flyingH5774. 3And theyH2088 were calling outH7121 toH413 one anotherH2088 H559:

“HolyH6918, holyH6918, holyH6918 is the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635;allH3605 the earthH776 is fullH4393 of His gloryH3519.”

4At the soundH6963 of their voicesH7121 the doorpostsH520 and thresholdsH5592 shookH5128, and the templeH1004 was filledH4390 with smokeH6227.

5Then I saidH559:

“WoeH188 is me,forH3588 I am ruinedH1820,becauseH3588 IH595 am a manH376 of uncleanH2931 lipsH8193dwellingH3427 amongH8432 a peopleH5971 of uncleanH2931 lipsH8193 H595;forH3588 my eyesH5869 have seenH7200 the KingH4428,the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635.”

6Then oneH259 ofH4480 the seraphimH8314 flewH5774 to meH413, and in his handH3027 was a glowing coalH7531 that he had takenH3947 with tongsH4457 fromH5921 the altarH4196. 7And with it he touchedH5060 H5921 my mouthH6310 and saidH559:

“Now thatH2009 thisH2088 H5921 has touchedH5060 your lipsH8193,your iniquityH5771 is removedH5493and your sinH2403 is atoned forH3722.”

8Then I heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LordH136 sayingH559 :

“WhomH4310 shall I sendH7971?WhoH4310 will goH1980 for Us?”

And I saidH559:

“Here am IH2005. Send meH7971!”

9And He repliedH559:

“GoH1980 and tellH559 thisH2088 peopleH5971,‘Be ever hearingH8085, but neverH408 understandingH995;be ever seeingH7200, but neverH408 perceivingH3045.’2
