Isaias 6

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
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.”

English Standard Version
Isaiah's Vision of the Lord
6 In the year that (A)King Uzziah died I (B)saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train[a] of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him stood the seraphim. Each had (C)six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one called to another and said:
4 And (F)the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and (G)the house was filled with smoke. 5 And I said: “Woe is me! (H)For I am lost; (I)for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the (J)King, the Lord of hosts!”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a burning coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 And he (K)touched my mouth and said: “Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin atoned for.”
Isaiah's Commission from the Lord
8 And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for (L)us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.” 9 And he said, “Go, and say to this people:
(M)“‘Keep on hearing,[c] but do not understand;
keep on seeing,[d] but do not perceive.’
10 (N)Make the heart of this people (O)dull,[e]
and their ears heavy,
and blind their eyes;
(P)lest they see with their eyes,
and hear with their ears,
and understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.”
11 Then I said, (Q)“How long, O Lord?”
And he said:
“Until (R)cities lie waste
without inhabitant,
and houses without people,
and the land is a desolate waste,
12 and the Lord removes people far away,
and the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
13 (S)And though a tenth remain in it,
it will be burned[f] again,
like a terebinth or an oak,
whose stump (T)remains
when it is felled.”
(U)The holy seed[g] is its stump.

Isaiah’s Vision
6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw [in a vision] the Lord sitting on a throne, high and exalted, with the train of His royal robe filling the [most holy part of the] temple.(A) 2 Above Him seraphim (heavenly beings) stood; each one had six wings: with two wings he covered his face, with two wings he covered his feet, and with two wings he flew. 3 And one called out to another, saying,
“Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of hosts;
The whole earth is filled with His glory.”
4 And the foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, and the temple was filling with smoke. 5 Then I said,
“Woe is me! For I am ruined,
Because I am a man of [ceremonially] unclean lips,
And I live among 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 with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with tongs. 7 He touched my mouth with it and said, “Listen carefully, this has touched your lips; your wickedness [your sin, your injustice, your wrongdoing] is taken away and your sin atoned for and forgiven.”
Isaiah’s Commission
8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I. Send me!” 9 And He said, “Go, and tell this people:
‘Keep on listening, but do not understand;
Keep on looking, but do not comprehend.’
10
“Make the heart of this people insensitive,
Their ears dull,
And their eyes dim,
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
Understand with their hearts,
And return and be healed.”
11 Then I said, “Lord, how long?” And He answered,
“Until cities are devastated and without inhabitant,
And houses are without people
And the land is utterly desolate,
12
The Lord has removed [His] people far away,
And there are many deserted places in the midst of the land.
13
“And though a tenth [of the people] remain in the land,
It will again be subject to destruction [consumed and burned],
Like a massive terebinth tree or like an oak
Whose stump remains when it is chopped down.
The holy seed [the elect remnant] is its stump [the substance of Israel].”
