Isaiah 6:2-10
New American Standard Bible
2 Seraphim were standing above Him, (A)each having six wings: with two each covered his face, and with two each covered his feet, and with two each flew. 3 And one called out to another and said,
4 And the [b]foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, while the [c](D)temple was filling with smoke. 5 Then I said,
“(E)Woe to me, for I am ruined!
Because I am a man of (F)unclean lips,
And I live among a (G)people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the (H)King, the Lord of armies.”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the (I)altar with tongs. 7 He (J)touched my mouth with it and said, “Behold, this has touched your lips; and (K)your guilt is taken away and atonement is made for your sin.”
Isaiah’s Commission
8 Then I heard the (L)voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then (M)I said, “Here am I. Send me!” 9 And He said, “Go, and tell this people:
‘Keep on (N)listening, but do not understand;
And keep on looking, but do not gain knowledge.’
10 (O)Make the hearts of this people [d](P)insensitive,
Their ears [e]dull,
And their eyes [f]blind,
(Q)So that they will not see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
Understand with their hearts,
And return and be healed.”
