Isaiah 6:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 The [a]Seraphims stood upon it, every one had six wings: with twain he covered his [b]face, and with twain he covered his [c]feet, and with twain he did [d]fly.
3 And one cried to another, and said, [e]Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts: the whole [f]world is full of his glory.
4 And the lintels of the door cheeks [g]moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
