a“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
bThe whole earth is full of His glory!”
“Woe is me, for I am1 undone!
Because I am a man of aunclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King,
The Lord of hosts.”
“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin1 purged.”
“Whom shall I send,
And who will go for aUs?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand;
Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’

Isaiah 6:5
undone— (Exodus 33:20). The same effect was produced on others by the presence of God (Judges 6:22; Judges 13:22; Job 42:5-6; Luke 5:8; Revelation 1:17).
lips—appropriate to the context which describes the praises of the lips, sung in alternate responses (Exodus 15:20-21; Isaiah 6:3) by the seraphim: also appropriate to the office of speaking as the prophet of God, about to be committed to Isaiah (Isaiah 6:9).
seen—not strictly Jehovah Himself (John 1:18; I Timothy 6:16), but the symbol of His presence.
Lord—Hebrew, "JEHOVAH."
