Isaiah Is Sent with a Message for the Lord’s People

In the year King Uzziah died, I saw Adonay sitting on a high and lofty throne. The bottom of his robe filled the temple. Angels[a] were standing above him. Each had six wings: With two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. They called to each other and said,

“Holy, holy, holy is Yahweh Tsebaoth!
    The whole earth is filled with his glory.”

Their voices shook the foundations of the doorposts, and the temple filled with smoke.

So I said, “Oh, no!

I’m doomed.
    Every word that passes through my lips is sinful.
        I live among people with sinful lips.
            I have seen the Melek, Yahweh Tsebaoth!”

Then one of the angels flew to me. In his hand was a burning coal that he had taken from the altar with tongs. He touched my mouth with it and said, “This has touched your lips. Your guilt has been taken away, and your sin has been forgiven.”

Then I heard the voice of Adonay, saying, “Whom will I send? Who will go for us?”

I said, “Here I am. Send me!”

And he said, “Go and tell these people,

‘No matter how closely you listen, you’ll never understand.
    No matter how closely you look, you’ll never see.’
10 Make these people close-minded.
    Plug their ears.
        Shut their eyes.
            Otherwise, they may see with their eyes,
        hear with their ears,
    understand with their minds,
        and return and be healed.”

11 I asked, “How long, O Adonay?”

And he replied,

“Until the cities lie in ruins with no one living in them,
    the houses have no people,
        and the land is completely desolate.
12 Yahweh will send his people far away,
    and a large area in the middle of the land will be abandoned.
13 Even if one out of ten people is left in it,
    the land will be burned again.
        When a sacred oak or an oak is cut down, a stump is left.
            The holy seed will be the land’s stump.”

The Virgin Will Have a Child

When Ahaz, son of Jotham and grandson of Uzziah, was king of Judah, Aram’s King Rezin and Israel’s King Pekah, son of Remaliah, went to Jerusalem to attack it, but they couldn’t defeat it. When word reached David’s family that the Arameans had made an alliance with Ephraim, the hearts of the king and his people were shaken as the trees of the forest are shaken by the wind.

Then Yahweh said to Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear Jashub to meet Ahaz at the end of the ditch of the Upper Pool on the road to the Laundryman’s Field. Say to him, ‘Be careful, stay calm, and don’t be afraid. Don’t lose heart because of the fierce anger of Rezin from Aram and Remaliah’s son. These two are smoldering logs.’ Aram, Ephraim, and Remaliah’s son have planned evil against you, saying, ‘Let’s march against Judah, tear it apart, divide it among ourselves, and set up Tabeel’s son as its king.’

  1. Isaiah 6:2 Or “Seraphim.”

A Child Will Be Born as the Prince of Peace

The people who walk in darkness will see a bright light.
    The light will shine on those who live in the land of death’s shadow.

You will expand the nation and increase its happiness.
    It will be happy in your presence
        like those who celebrate the harvest
            or rejoice when dividing loot.
You will break the yoke[a] that burdens them,
    the bar that is across their shoulders,
        and the stick used by their oppressor,
            as you did in the battle against Midian.
Every warrior’s boot marching to the sound of battle
    and every garment rolled in blood
        will be burned as fuel in the fire.
A child will be born for us.
    A son will be given to us.
    The government will rest on his shoulders.
    He will be named:
        Wonderful Counselor,
        Mighty God,
        Everlasting Father,
        Sar Shalom.
His government and peace will have unlimited growth.
    He will establish David’s throne and kingdom.
    He will uphold it with justice and righteousness now and forever.
    Yahweh Tsebaoth is determined to do this!
