1 In the year of King Uzziah’s death, I saw the Lord sitting on a high and exalted throne, the edges of his robe filling the temple.
2 Winged creatures were stationed around him. Each had six wings: with two they veiled their faces, with two their feet, and with two they flew about.
3 They shouted to each other, saying:"Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of heavenly forces!All the earth is filled with God’s glory!"
4 The doorframe shook at the sound of their shouting, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 I said, "Mourn for me; I’m ruined! I’m a man with unclean lips, and I live among a people with unclean lips. Yet I’ve seen the king, the Lord of heavenly forces!"
6 Then one of the winged creatures flew to me, holding a glowing coal that he had taken from the altar with tongs.
