Ang Pagtawag kay Isaias Upang Maging Propeta
6 Noong(A) taon na mamatay si Haring Uzias, nakita ko si Yahweh na nakaupo sa isang napakataas na trono. Ang laylayan ng kanyang kasuotan ay nakalatag sa buong Templo. 2 May mga serapin sa kanyang ulunan, at ang bawat isa'y may anim na pakpak: dalawa ang nakatakip sa mukha, dalawa sa mga paa, at dalawa ang ginagamit sa paglipad. 3 Sinasabi(B) nila sa isa't isa ang ganito:
“Banal, banal, banal si Yahweh na Makapangyarihan sa lahat!
Ang buong daigdig ay puspos ng kanyang kaluwalhatian.”
4 Sa(C) lakas ng kanilang tinig ay nayanig ang mga pundasyon ng Templo at ang loob nito'y napuno ng usok. 5 Sinabi ko, “Kawawa ako sapagkat ako ay isang makasalanan at mula sa isang lahing makasalanan. Mapapahamak ako sapagkat nakita ko ang Hari, si Yahweh, ang Makapangyarihan sa lahat!”
6 Pagkatapos, may isang seraping sumipit ng baga mula sa altar, at lumipad patungo sa akin. 7 Idinampi niya ang baga sa aking mga labi, at sinabi: “Ngayong naidampi na ito sa iyong mga labi, pinatawad ka na at nilinis na ang iyong mga kasalanan.” 8 At narinig ko ang tinig ni Yahweh na nagsasabi, “Sino ang aking ipadadala? Sino ang magpapahayag para sa atin?” Sumagot ako, “Narito po ako; ako ang inyong isugo!” 9 At(D) sinabi niya, “Humayo ka at sabihin mo sa mga tao:
‘Makinig man kayo nang makinig ay hindi kayo makakaunawa;
tumingin man kayo nang tumingin ay hindi kayo makakakita.’
10 Papurulin mo ang kanilang kaisipan,
kanilang pandinig iyo ring takpan,
bulagin mo sila upang hindi makakita,
upang sila'y hindi makarinig, hindi makakita, at hindi makaunawa.
Kundi'y baka magbalik-loob sila at sila'y pagalingin ko pa.”
11 Itinanong ko: “Hanggang kailan po, Panginoon?” Ganito ang sagot niya:
“Hanggang ang mga lunsod ay mawasak at mawalan ng tao,
hanggang sa wala nang nakatira sa mga tahanan,
at ang lupain ay matiwangwang;
12 hanggang sa ang mga tao'y itapon ni Yahweh sa malayong lugar,
at ang malawak na lupain ay wala nang pakinabang.
13 Matira man ang ikasampung bahagi ng mga tao,
sila rin ay mapupuksa,
parang pinutol na puno ng ensina,
na tuod lamang ang natira.
Ang tuod na iyan ay tanda ng isang bagong simula para sa bayan ng Diyos.”
Isaiah 6
Authorized (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.
Isaiah 6
New International Version
Isaiah’s Commission
6 In the year that King Uzziah(A) died,(B) I saw the Lord,(C) high and exalted,(D) seated on a throne;(E) and the train of his robe(F) filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim,(G) each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet,(H) and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another:
4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.(M)
5 “Woe(N) to me!” I cried. “I am ruined!(O) For I am a man of unclean lips,(P) and I live among a people of unclean lips,(Q) and my eyes have seen(R) the King,(S) the Lord Almighty.”(T)
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal(U) in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips;(V) your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.(W)”
8 Then I heard the voice(X) of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send?(Y) And who will go for us?(Z)”
And I said, “Here am I.(AA) Send me!”
9 He said, “Go(AB) and tell this people:
“‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding;
be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’(AC)
10 Make the heart of this people calloused;(AD)
make their ears dull
and close their eyes.[a](AE)
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,(AF)
understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.”(AG)
11 Then I said, “For how long, Lord?”(AH)
And he answered:
“Until the cities lie ruined(AI)
and without inhabitant,
until the houses are left deserted(AJ)
and the fields ruined and ravaged,(AK)
12 until the Lord has sent everyone far away(AL)
and the land is utterly forsaken.(AM)
13 And though a tenth remains(AN) in the land,
it will again be laid waste.(AO)
But as the terebinth and oak
leave stumps(AP) when they are cut down,
so the holy(AQ) seed will be the stump in the land.”(AR)
