1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a high and lofty throne, and His robe filled the temple.
2 Seraphim were standing above Him; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.
3 And one called to another:Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Hosts;His glory fills the whole earth.
4 The foundations of the doorways shook at the sound of their voices, and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 Then I said:Woe is me for I am ruined because I am a man of unclean lipsand live among a people of unclean lips, and because my eyes have seen the King,the Lord of Hosts.
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken from the altar with tongs.
7 He touched my mouth with it and said:Now that this has touched your lips,your wickedness is removedand your sin is atoned for.
