Isaiah:6

* In the year that King Uzziah died , I saw the Lord sitting on a throne , high and lifted up , and the train of His robe filled the temple . * Above it stood seraphim ; each one had six wings : with two he covered his face , with two he covered his feet , and with two he flew . * And one cried to another and said : "Holy , holy , holy is the LORD of hosts ; The whole earth is full of His glory !" * And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out , and the house was filled with smoke . * So I said : "Woe is me , for I am undone ! Because 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 King , The LORD of hosts ." * Then one of the seraphim flew to me , having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar . * And he touched my mouth with it , and said : "Behold , this has touched your lips ; Your iniquity is taken away , And your sin purged ." * Also 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 ." * And He said , "Go , and tell this people : "Keep on hearing , but do not understand ; Keep on seeing , but do not perceive .' * "Make the heart of this people dull , And their ears heavy , And shut their eyes ; Lest they see with their eyes , And hear with their ears , And understand with their heart , And return and be healed ." * Then I said , "Lord , how long ?" And He answered : "Until the cities are laid waste and without inhabitant , The houses are without a man , The land is utterly desolate , * The LORD has removed men far away , And the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land . * But yet a tenth will be in it , And will return and be for consuming , As a terebinth tree or as an oak , Whose stump remains when it is cut down . So the holy seed shall be its stump ."
