Isaiah 6:2-13
2SeraphimH8314 stoodH5975 aboveH4605 Him, 1eachH259 having sixH8337 wingsH3671: with twoH8147 he coveredH3680 his faceH6440, and with twoH8147 he coveredH3680 his feetH7272, and with twoH8147 he flewH5774. 3And oneH2088 calledH7121 out to anotherH2088 and saidH559, “2HolyH6918, HolyH6918, HolyH6918, is the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, The 34wholeH3605 earthH776 is fullH4393 of His gloryH3519.” 4And the 5foundationsH522 of the thresholdsH5592 trembledH5128 at the voiceH6963 of him who calledH7121 out, while the 67templeH1004 was fillingH4390 with smokeH6227. 5Then I saidH559, “8WoeH188 is me, for I am ruinedH1820! BecauseH3588 I am a manH376 of 9uncleanH2931 lipsH8193, And I liveH3427 amongH8432 a 10peopleH5971 of uncleanH2931 lipsH8193; For my eyesH5869 have seenH7200 the 11KingH4428, the LordH3068 of hostsH6635.”
6Then oneH259 of the seraphimH8314 flewH5774 to me with a burningH7531 coalH7531 in his handH3027, which he had takenH3947 from the 12altarH4196 with tongsH4457. 7He 13touchedH5060 my mouthH6310 with it and saidH559, “BeholdH2009, thisH2088 has touchedH5060 your lipsH8193; and 14your iniquityH5771 is takenH5493 awayH5493 and your sinH2403 is 15forgivenH3722.” 8Then I heardH8085 the 16voiceH6963 of the LordH136, sayingH559, “WhomH4310 shall I sendH7971, and whoH4310 will goH1980 for Us?” Then 17I saidH559, “HereH2009 am I. SendH7971 me!” 9He saidH559, “GoH1980, and tellH559 thisH2088 peopleH5971: ‘KeepH8085 on 18listeningH8085, but do not perceiveH995; KeepH7200 on lookingH7200, but do not understandH3045.’1019RenderH8080 the heartsH3820 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 2021insensitiveH8080, Their earsH241 22dullH3513, And their eyesH5869 23dimH8173, 24OtherwiseH6435 they might seeH7200 with their eyesH5869, HearH8085 with their earsH241, UnderstandH995 with their heartsH3824, And returnH7725 and be healedH7495.” 11Then I saidH559, “LordH136, 25howH4970 longH5704H4970?” And He answeredH559, “UntilH5704H834H518 26citiesH5892 are devastatedH7582 and withoutH369 inhabitantH3427, HousesH1004 are withoutH369 peopleH120 And the landH127 is utterlyH8077 desolateH8077,12The LordH3068 has 27removedH7368 menH120 farH7368 away, And the 2829forsakenH5805 placesH5805 are manyH7231 in the midstH7130 of the landH776.13YetH5750 there will be a tenthH6224 portionH6224 in it, And it will againH7725 be subject to burningH1197, Like a terebinthH424 or an 30oakH437 WhoseH834 stumpH4676 remains whenH834 it is felledH7995. The 31holyH6944 seedH2233 is its stumpH4676.”
