Isaiah’s Vision of the Lord
1
In the year that 1King Uzziah died I 2saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the traina of his robe filled the temple.
2
Above him stood the seraphim. Each had 3six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.
3
And one called to another and said: 4“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; 5the whole earth is full of his glory! ” b
4
And 6the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and 7the house was filled with smoke.
5
And I said: “Woe is me! 8For I am lost; 9for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the 10King, the Lord of hosts! ”
6
Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a burning coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar.
7
And he 11touched my mouth and said: “Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin atoned for. ”
Isaiah’s Commission from the Lord
8
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for 12us? ” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me. ”
9
And he said, “Go, and say to this people: 13“‘Keep on hearing, c but do not understand; keep on seeing, d but do not perceive. ’
10
14Make the heart of this people 15dull, e and their ears heavy, and blind their eyes; 16lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed. ”
11
Then I said, 17“How long, O Lord? ”And he said: “Until 18cities lie waste without inhabitant, and houses without people, and the land is a desolate waste,
12
and the Lord removes people far away, and the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
