Chapter 6

1

IN the year that King Uzziyahu died I saw also Adonai sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the Temple.

2

Above it stood the Seraphiym: each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he did fly.

3

And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is Yahuah Tseva'oth: the whole earth is full of his glory.

4

And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.

5

Then said I, 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, Yahuah Tseva'oth.

6

Then flew one of the Seraphiym unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:

7

And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin purged.

8

Also I heard the voice of Adonai, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

9

And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.

10

Make the heart of this people fat, and make 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.

11

Then said I, Yahuah, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,

12

And Yahuah have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.

13

But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.
