  1. 24:11 Lit not stretch out his hand against

Isaiah’s Call and Mission

Seraphim[a] were standing above him; they each had six wings:(E) with two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew.(F) And one called to another:

his glory(G) fills the whole earth.(H)

The foundations of the doorways shook(I) at the sound of their voices, and the temple was filled with smoke.

Then I said:

Woe is me(J) for I am ruined[b]

and live among a people of unclean lips,(K)
and because my eyes have seen the King,
the Lord of Armies.
