Isaías 6
La Biblia de las Américas
Visión de Isaías
6 En el año de la muerte del rey Uzías[a](A) vi yo al Señor sentado sobre un trono alto y sublime(B), y la orla de su manto llenaba el templo. 2 Por encima de Él había[b] serafines; cada uno tenía seis alas(C): con dos cubrían sus rostros, con dos cubrían sus pies y con dos volaban. 3 Y el uno al otro daba voces, diciendo[c]:
4 Y se estremecieron los cimientos[e] de los umbrales a la voz del que clamaba, y la casa se llenó de humo(F). 5 Entonces dije:
¡Ay de mí! Porque perdido estoy(G),
pues soy hombre de labios inmundos(H)
y en medio de un pueblo de labios inmundos habito(I),
porque han visto mis ojos al Rey, el Señor de los ejércitos(J).
6 Entonces voló hacia mí uno de los serafines con un carbón encendido en su mano, que había tomado del altar(K) con las tenazas; 7 y con él tocó mi boca, y dijo: He aquí, esto ha tocado tus labios(L), y es quitada tu iniquidad y perdonado[f] tu pecado(M). 8 Y oí la voz del Señor(N) que decía: ¿A quién enviaré, y quién irá por nosotros? Entonces respondí: Heme aquí; envíame a mí(O). 9 Y Él dijo:
Ve, y di a este pueblo:
«Escuchad bien, pero no entendáis;
mirad bien, pero no comprendáis(P)».
10 Haz insensible[g](Q) el corazón de este pueblo,
endurece[h] sus oídos,
y nubla[i] sus ojos,
no sea que vea con sus ojos,
y oiga con sus oídos(R),
y entienda con su corazón,
y se arrepienta y sea curado(S).
11 Entonces dije yo:
¿Hasta cuándo, Señor(T)? Y Él respondió:
Hasta que las ciudades estén destruidas y sin habitantes,
las casas sin gente,
y la tierra completamente desolada(U);
12 hasta que el Señor haya alejado a los hombres(V),
y sean muchos los lugares abandonados[j] en medio de la tierra(W).
13 Pero aún quedará una décima parte en ella,
y esta volverá a ser consumida
como el roble o la encina,
cuyo tronco[k] permanece cuando es cortado(X):
la simiente santa(Y) será su tronco[l].

King James Version
6 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Then said I, 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 mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.
6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
12 And the Lord have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
13 But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.

New King James Version
Isaiah Called to Be a Prophet(A)
6 In the year that (B)King Uzziah died, I (C)saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, (D)with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one cried to another and said:
4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 So I said:
“Woe is me, for I am [a]undone!
Because I am a man of (G)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 one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from (H)the altar. 7 And he (I)touched my mouth with it, and said:
“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin [b]purged.”
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying:
“Whom shall I send,
And who will go for (J)Us?”
Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
9 And He said, “Go, and (K)tell this people:
‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand;
Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’
10 “Make (L)the heart of this people dull,
And their ears heavy,
And shut their eyes;
(M)Lest they see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And return and be healed.”
11 Then I said, “Lord, how long?”
And He answered:
(N)“Until the cities are laid waste and without inhabitant,
The houses are without a man,
The land is utterly desolate,
12 (O)The Lord has removed men far away,
And the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
13 But yet a tenth will be in it,
And will return and be for consuming,
As a terebinth tree or as an oak,
Whose stump remains when it is cut down.
So (P)the holy seed shall be its stump.”

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
A Vision of God in the Temple
6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lofty; and the hem of his robe filled the temple. 2 Seraphs were in attendance above him; each had six wings: with two they covered their faces, and with two they covered their feet, and with two they 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 The pivots[a] on the thresholds shook at the voices of those who called, and the house filled with smoke. 5 And I said: “Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!”
6 Then one of the seraphs flew to me, holding a live coal that had been taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. 7 The seraph[b] touched my mouth with it and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your guilt has departed and your sin is blotted out.” 8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I; send me!” 9 And he said, “Go and say to this people:
‘Keep listening, but do not comprehend;
keep looking, but do not understand.’
10 Make the mind of this people dull,
and stop their ears,
and shut their eyes,
so that they may not look with their eyes,
and listen with their ears,
and comprehend with their minds,
and turn and be healed.”
11 Then I said, “How long, O Lord?” And he said:
“Until cities lie waste
without inhabitant,
and houses without people,
and the land is utterly desolate;
12 until the Lord sends everyone far away,
and vast is the emptiness in the midst of the land.
13 Even if a tenth part remain in it,
it will be burned again,
like a terebinth or an oak
whose stump remains standing
when it is felled.”[c]
The holy seed is its stump.
