1 ) 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 two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two 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 has touched your lips, and yours iniquity is taken away, and your 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.
