Isaiah 6:1-8

Bible Text

[1] In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple. [2] Above him stood the seraphim. Each one had six wings. With two he covered his face. With two he covered his feet. With two he flew. [3] One called to another, and said, "Holy, holy, holy, is Yahweh of Hosts! The whole earth is full of his glory!" [4] The foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke. [5] Then 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, Yahweh of Hosts!" [6] Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar. [7] He touched my mouth with it, and said, "Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin forgiven." [8] I heard the Lord's voice, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then I said, "Here I am. Send me!"
