| 1 | In the year that King Uzzi'ah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple. |
| 2 | Above him stood the seraphim; each had six 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: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory." |
| 4 | And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke. |
| 5 | And I said: "Woe is me! For I am lost; for 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!" |
| 6 | Then flew one of the seraphim to me, having in his hand a burning coal which he had taken with tongs from the altar. |
| 7 | And he touched my mouth, and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin forgiven." |
| 8 | And 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." |
