1. The year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord of all sitting upon
a high and exalted throne, and His borders filling the temple.
2. Above it stood the seraphim: each one had six wings; with two he
covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he did
fly. 3. And one cried to the other, and said,
Holy, holy, holy! is Jehovah of hosts!
Filling the whole earth is His glory.
4. And the foundation of the threshold shook with the voice of them
that cried; and the house became full of smoke.
5. Then said I, Woe unto me! for I am lost; for I am a man of unclean
lips, and I am dwelling among a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes
have seen the King, Jehovah of hosts.
6. And one of the seraphim flew to me with a red-hot coal in his
hand, which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. 7. And he
touched my mouth with it, and said, Behold, this hath touched thy
lips, and thine iniquity is taken away; and so thy sin is expiated.
8. Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and
who will go for us? Then I said, Behold me here; send me!
9. He said, Go, and tell this people, Hear on, and understand not;
and look on, but perceive not. 10. Make ye the heart of this people
greasy, and their ears heavy, and their eyes sticky; that they may
not see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and their heart
understand, and they be converted, and one heal them.
